Impact analysis
If taller buildings are allowed, expect more development pressure and possible gains in property value and tax revenue—but also potential costs for infrastructure and services.
Developers and property owners who can build more square footage stand to gain, and the city could see a larger tax base.
Residents worried about losing the small-town feel, views, and added strain on roads and services could be negatively affected.
