They won't though.. they're too addicted to collecting more tax money.

It is the City of Laconia that would collect more taxes. The State would basically get the sales receipt.
I believe the City was given the option to purchase it... and chose not to.
What the City wanted was the now defunct Muskrats to have access to parking within the project. Getting it back on the tax rolls is probably nice... but the City's other concern was more about creating middle class housing.
