I was initially confused because the OTA manages the taxes on cleaning whereas if I end up paying more for cleaning, I'm not aware that I have to remit further taxes to the government beyond what's already known.

Does that mean the city or government can’t pay you rent?

Rates are directly tied to the 10-Year US Treasury which are impacted by not only our market-driven economy, but also government action (or inaction).

The reason for the seeming imbalance is that there are branches of the city’s Department of Investigation and the Housing Authority that police the theft of government housing funds.
