When posting opinions about this topic, I notice that the people who are against development impact fees imposed against the developers, are basically speaking exclusively on behalf of themselves as Villagers. The people who are in favor of increased impact fees are speaking on behalf of themselves as residents of the County, or sympathetic to residents of the County (which would be me, since I am not a resident of Sumter County but remain sympathetic to their situation).
So once again - "me" vs. "us." Pro-impact fee embraces a unified county. Anti-impact fee embraces division.
