The value of Hage's legislative initiative is Huge. A ballpark figure for a single year might be the number of new houses sold by the developer times the cost other developers pay in impact fees per house less the amount the developer pays per house.
$/year = Housessold X (Normal ImpactFee - TV ImpactFee). This is all money for the developer's purse - before income taxes.

Of course this means current residents and other taxpayers are picking up much of the tab for new development infrastructure.
