Thus Ulfric saw no reason (assuming that he isn't racist, or at least not to the Dark Elves) to renovate the gray quarter: because the Dark Elves don't pay taxes. It's an endless loop, you see. Now the solution that Ulfric could come up with, would be to renovate the Gray Quarter, so long as the Dark Elves began paying taxes, or at the very least had them pay for the rennovation. The Dunmer tax/law exemption only applies to the island of Solstheim, not all Dunmer living in Skyrim.
