I wonder if they plan to also build all the infrastructure required to support all these new people living in these new housing. Like expanded electric service, water & sewer, trash pickup, transportation, schools, another fire station. Or are taxpayers going to have to pick up that bill? Build build build is great, we need more housing, but you can't do it without also planning for all the supporting infrastructure.

Iām unclear what your concern is. How is this different than any other home builder? Also unclear what you mean by taxpayers being on the hook. More people in housing expands the tax payer base. The new homeowners will literally be paying for these things when they pay their property tax.
