Value uplift tax
Goff was also asked whether council could charge targeted rates on value uplift capture around the new transport projects to help fund them. “That’s a concept that I think really needs to be explored,” he said.
“Sometimes when the ratepayer and the taxpayer put in new infrastructure, it creates a massive uplift in the value of properties [around that infrastructure]. And I think in principal it’s fair…if you’re getting a massive uplift in the value of your property that you make a contribution to the infrastructure that lets that happen.”
Goff said he’d talked about the measure in London. “It is quite a complex area, but it’s an area that I think both government and council are committed to exploring.”
It wasn’t something council could bring in immediately. “If you’re going to do it, you would need to do it right, so that it was equitable, and that it was done well. But it’s a concept that certainly should be followed through on by council,” Goff said.
He said he thought there was general agreement across the political spectrum that, “if you get a windfall profit, then you should be contributing some of that towards the cost of the infrastructure that enabled that to happen.”
