More details from petition creator
Many inner city gardens (front and rear) are being paved over, either to create parking spaces or patios, and this is causing flooding, as well as removing green spaces. I propose a system of tax rebates for ground not paved over (or covered in decking) with extra rebates for trees in the garden on a sliding scale according to height. Obviously care must be taken to avoid light-blocking etc.
