Don’t play politics with impact fees

1 min read

To the editor:

Our impact fees should be a definite number based on the (predicted, expected) controlled growth. We have limited resources to use for growth. This makes it extremely important to plan and not play politics with this issue. The amount we need for specific uses for development should be a calculated amount, not a guess.This should result then in a minimal adjustment of fees,and should not be changed to meet political goals.

We made an error in changing the impact fee.

Residents have a right and should complain because the impact fees needed to fund the projects were not collected. If you collect the impact fees, then these projects would not go on funded.
