General info: As mentioned recently, some of the earliest LGOV efforts in China involved the proposed construction of modular housing communities, and a large business/residence/mall complex of some kind. I'm working strictly from memory here; but, the first houses were modular units shipped from here in the US. The next step was to build a factory over there, and produce the homes locally. If you are the "developer" of a new community, there are some real opportunities to guarantee continuing income. By locating utilities at a centralized point (water, wastewater, gas, hot water or steam, and chilled water) services may be distributed or handled with funding derived from monthly maintenance fees or volumetric usage charges. Where a community includes civil services (police, fire, medical, educational, utility, roads, and grounds support), and also includes commercial facilities (7-11, laundry, food services, gas stations, professional services, merchandising, etc.) you can build a "physical plant" at the heart of it - which is considerably more efficient than individualized systems. Picture a huge, self-contained college campus with full services. A "physical plant" is an excellent place to locate some company offices, hang a big "LGOV" shingle outside, and handle the bookkeeping associated with utilities charges, maintenance services, and rental space income. There is no reason that a lease-purchase scenario could not be applied - to assist people in obtaining homes or business locations. As successes in the current divisions of effort are realized, there is no reason that the housing and general development efforts cannot be revived. Whenever you make an effort towards a goal, you never lose the "education" you got going there; whether the first efforts were successful or not. It's easy to grow an already growing business.
