100% property taxes on all properties that have sat empty for more than X% of the time the property has existed
The problem there is that sometimes ownership of a property is either lost or unclear. The woman across the street from us died. Her house has sat empty for years. No one seems to have claimed ownership of it. I doubt anyone is paying property taxes on it because whoever does own it doesn't seem to be aware of it.
Oh I realize that proposal is unreasonable and unrealistic. I'm just sick and tired of the people who are trying to make things better for others being the only ones that are supposed to compromise and "be reasonable." The opposition has chosen violence and intransigency.
Far as that woman's house is concerned, sounds like a good place to put a homeless squatter, who can then gain lawful ownership since no one else wants the place
