To continue your analogy: I hope that, in November 2020, you see three County Commissioner windmills tilted out of office. Get out and vote.

The ************** website has jumped in on this issue, pointing out in an October 5 editorial, "Anybody in their right mind knows the Developer should be paying for these infrastructure needs through higher impact fees."

**************, my go to source for noteworthy opinions.

Don Wiley, in his most recent construction flyover post, explained this pretty well. The roads that the county is paying for are roads that existed long before the Villages were ever here. They are county roads, and as such, the county is responsible for upkeep and/or improvements to those roads. Morse Blvd, and Buena Vista did not exist before the villages, and therefore were built and paid for by the developer. What we have here is a problem with the county bragging about holding down taxes for 14 years, without any foresight or planning for future needs.

...

And what is your explanation for the tax increase in lieu of an increase in the Developer's impact fee?

The corporatization of government officials is no secret. Therefore the "conspiracy theorist" hasn't uncovered anything we don't already know.
