and across the city, homeowners are left with rising property taxes while developers are rewarded for new construction projects with a 10-year abatement. We've got to reign in corporate development that raises property values and prices families out of their neighborhoods | 10 | 11427 | |

Domb cites the wealth gap between homeowners and renters. His focus is on increasing homeownership. But it’s damn near impossible to save money when your landlord can increase your rent with no limit. The best way to stabilize tenants is to stabilize rent! | 17 | 11427 | |

First mention of eviction - illegal evictions specifically - from DeLeon! If all 22k landlords were charged a $300 fine, that would be money toward…CDCs? Problem with that is it’s a budget that relies on landlords continuing to illegally evict people. | 13 | 11427 | |
