Impact fees are a barrier to affordable housing. The proper way to pay for infrastructure is a broader tax paid for by everyone, which is what we are already doing. Impact fees will only add to the end cost of housing. In other words, a fee for the new people so that the people who have been there slightly longer can benefit off of what the new people bring or a way to block new undesirable people from your neighborhood. I thought we were trying to promote equity, not segregation by another name?
