The only difference is that those who purchase a NEW home pays the impact fees instead of spreading it out among all the county taxpayers.

Might seem fair, but consider this: All county residents might benefit from new roads, new fire stations and police presence, as well as the jobs created in the construction, service, and retail industries. It's not as clear cut as the poster previously known as "the avocado" would have everyone believe.
