Existing businesses and new businesses moving into existing buildings are unaffected by impact fees, and everybody pays lower property taxes. Research the matter and you will see the counties with higher impact fees do just fine.

Anyway, this whole issue SHOULD have been decided with the election of the EMS team. Your argument lost by a 2 to 1 vote. What is going on now is a carefully orchestrated attempt by the Developer to undo the election.
