LL suggestion: lower the fee for openspace relocation

I'd really like to see a more reasonable fee for moving regions to a different location on the grid. Especially for large estates that own many openspace/homestead regions. The current charge is a whopping $150 USD per region, which is cost prohibitive. I have many openspaces that share borders with each other, because that was the requirement in days past. Their value is lowered when they aren't free-floating with void space around them, but it also makes little since to pay such a high fee to move them.

Now in light of the cost increases, lowering or waiving this move fee, even if for a period, would help those like me to increase the value of these land bound regions somewhat, to attempt to make up for the higher prices. It's an easy way for you to help us adjust to the cost hikes.

If you won't waive the fee, I'd like to see more flexibility at least. Most openspace region fees are applied 4/1 - such as, conversions to regular regions. We aren't charged the $100 fee for each of the 4 regions, rather just $100 total. So perhaps allowing us to relocate 4 openspaces for the $150 fee would make more sense?

that is a technology issue tho. it could be part of the land store application for example, making it very easy to move regions. LL could also put a limit on how often a region can be moved if they are worried about it happening too much. there are better options than charging $150/USD for a very simple thing like this.
