Aggressively tax landowners on the value they did not create and let them keep 100% of the value they did create.

They didn’t (solely) pay for the $6.5MM light poles, so they shouldn’t (solely) get the real estate value upside from having them there. Look up the Land Value Tax and start pushing for it.
