You've just regurgitated their press release. Are they just handing the taxpayers' money over from one hand to the other?

With development charges the burden is placed solely on the home purchaser/renter. If the gov begins subsidizing the charges then the burden is spread out across all forms of taxpayers, hence lessening the burden on home purchasers/renters. Seems pretty obvious to me what the difference is.
