<I'm probably going to regret this...>

The study done in 2019 showed that the 40% point matched the existing impact fees put in place in 2015. The impact fees were not reduced in 2019, they were kept the same. The 25% didn't offset a cut in impact fees, it added to the existing impact fees.

Did the new commissioners actually run on increasing the road impact fee to 100% or did they run on increasing the impact fees? (I'll be looking but it might take a minute or three)

Didn't the new commissioners run rolling back the 25% property tax increase? As I mentioned in the post you replied to, what is the plan to replace the income from that 25%

Voters don't (or rarely) make policy decisions. Policy decisions are made by elected officials like the commissioners. Voters indicate their preferences by selecting like-minded officials. Ideally, those officials have done their homework before making campaign promises - the word is very rarely ideal.

What must be done is the commissioners must do what is right for all their constituents including you, including the non-Villager home-buyers, and including those in the construction industry. First they must do their homework which might result in them having to backpedal a bit.
