Abstract:

Raleigh has proposed the Penny for Housing tax, a progressive tax that helps people in low-income communities to access affordable housing that they're being priced out of. The city's goal is to prevent further concentrations of minority and low-income people and subsidized housing by collecting additional property taxes.
