Impact analysis
This could mean developers might face stricter rules, but it helps protect current taxpayers from footing the bill for messy, rapid growth.
Current residents and city planners win here, since the city gets more control over making sure growth actually makes sense.
Developers and landowners who were hoping to use MUDs to finance their projects more easily might find it a bit tougher to build.
