> A land value tax wouldnt tax density it would just tax the value of the land.

I wasn’t responding to an LVT suggestion, but a suggestion of taxes that would be based on density of use and go up for lower density. I quoted the suggestion in my response. LVT is a whole different thing.

The value in LTV would be influenced by density. If every parcel around a plot of land is dense the total value would be higher. So tax the land at the average density of surrounding parcels and allow for unlimited density. That would incentivize density and development where it is needed and prevent a single hold out from inefficiently blocking development.
