Neal Potter of the Montgomery County Citizens' Planning Association urged a 50 percent tax on profits from land rezonings at a Montgomery County Democratic Forum meeting in Silver Spring. He argued growth costs are borne by homeowners and that rezonings create untaxed profits, suggesting taxes be collected at the time of rezoning based on pre and post appraisal values.
