If Smart Growth Is So Smart, How Come There’s So Much Dumb Growth?

Reversing Economic Incentives for Sprawl APA

SLIDE 72

OVERVIEW

  • The Perversity of Infrastructure
  • No Good Deed Goes Unpunished
  • The Role of Land Speculation
  • Land Value Creation & Consequences
  • Land Value Recycling for Sustainability & Equity

SLIDE 77

Perversity of Infrastructure:

  • Infrastructure is created to facilitate development.
  • But, it inflates the price of well-served land.
  • High land prices cause builders to develop cheaper

but more remote sites.

  • We run after development with more infrastructure,

but never catch up.

  • Ensuing sprawl harms the environment and impairs
  • ur budgets due to expensive infrastructure

duplication.

slide-78
SLIDE 78

“No Good Deed Goes Unpunished”

  • To help low-income communities:
  • Improve the schools
  • Reduce Crime
  • Enhance Transit
  • If we accomplish any of these improvements, land

prices rise, rents rise and the intended beneficiaries are displaced.

  • Tax dollars, intended to help the poor, end up

enriching Landlords (who tend not to be poor).

slide-79
SLIDE 79

LAND SPECULATION

  • The ability of private landowners to appropriate publicly-

created land value is the fuel for land speculation

  • Land speculation creates nothing of value
  • Speculation does create
  • Artificial scarcity of developable land
  • Real increases in land prices
  • Periodic Real Estate Booms & Busts
slide-80
SLIDE 80

INFLATED LAND PRICES

  • Housing Affordability Problems
  • Labor & Material Prices Track General Inflation (CPI)
  • Since WWII, Land Prices Increased TEN TIMES FASTER Than CPI
  • Sprawl
  • Inflated Land Prices Push Development to Cheaper, but more

Remote Sites

  • Boom & Bust Cycles Create Hardships For Most
  • Speculators Outbid Land Users During Boom Times
  • Speculators Refuse to Sell At a Loss During Bust

LAND VALUE RETURN & RECYCLING PROMOTES AFFORDABLE SMART GROWTH

  • Did you learn something new about sprawl, affordable housing and

job creation?

  • What are you going to do about it?
