The budget is an annual budget. All the infrastructure won't be built this year. The $100,000,000 figure is generally accepted. Do you have an alternative one?
I cite Collier for comparison purposes and to point out how low the $901 paid for by the Developer is by comparison.
The amount that should be collected here is obviously the total cost of infrastructure expansion (of all kinds, not just roads) necessitated by the Developer's massive expansion of The Villages divided by the number of houses to be built.
Now, I will ask you a question, Why when they learned of the Developer's plan to massively expand The Villages, didn't the County Commissioners recompute the Developer's impact fee instead of increasing everybody's property taxes?
I will ask you another question, would you identify yourself so readers can determine if you are affiliated with the Developer or Commissioners?
