stop subsidizing sprawl with our taxes

Let the developers themselves, and those who benefit from their strip malls and lookalike subdivisions, pay the freight for disrupting ecosystems and plundering open space.

Anybody up for sponsoring such a state law?

"State and local governments are subsidizing "runaway sprawl in Michigan" with multibillion-dollar-a-year public investment practices that erase greenfields and erode the vitality of cities."
