Reply to comment by Karen1968a in Good job Worcester! We passed the CPA! by legalpretzel

a triple-decker assessed at $700K will only need to raise rents by ~$4/month per unit to pay for the CPA.

“Need” is one thing. What they will actually raise may be another

if rent increases are disconnected from the CPA as you imply, then why mention them at all here?

So people realize that their political decisions have an impact. I’m guessing a lot of people who voted yes, don’t own property ( some do I know). They listened to the rhetoric and said “screw it, I don’t own property, no impact to me, I’ll vote yes. “. That’s all. Same with question 1, “ I’m not a millionaire, I don’t care”.

Both question one and question five have only positive impacts. Any negative repercussions come solely from human greed.
