Impact analysis
Tax dollars are being used to buy the land, but this investment usually boosts nearby property values and brings in foot traffic for local businesses.
Local residents, cyclists, and pedestrians get an awesome new space to exercise and commute safely, while neighborhood businesses could see a nice bump in customers.
