Dick Netzer, a leading public finance economist specializing in
state and local issues and urban government, brings together in
this comprehensive volume essays by top scholars connecting the
property tax with land use. They explore the idea that the property
tax is used as a partial substitute for land use regulation and
other policies designed to affect how land is utilized. Like many
economists, the contributors see some type of property taxation as
the more efficient means of helping to shape land use. Some of the
essays analyze a conventional property tax, while others consider
radically different systems of property taxation. The first paper
sets the stage, modeling taxes on land and buildings in the context
of a dynamic model of real estate markets. The remaining papers
examine how various tax mechanisms and non-tax alternatives to
regulating and determining land use, such as zoning and private
neighborhood associations, complement or substitute for one
another. Urban planners and economists interested in local public
finance will welcome this comprehensive study.
