ARCi Car rboro <br /> ALLEN & SUSAN SPALT <br /> 300 James Street 21 <br /> Carrboro, North Carolina 27510 <br /> Home: 919/967-1886 Work: 919/967-1 86 <br /> May 24, 1995 <br /> Moses Carey, Chair <br /> Orange County Board of Commissioners <br /> Hillsborough, NC <br /> BY FAX: 644-3004 <br /> Dear Moses: <br /> Because of conflicts, we may not be able to appear at the rheeting of <br /> the Board of Commissioners meeting on May 25th when you consider the . <br /> impact fee for new development to pay for school construction. Please <br /> allow us to express our support for an increase by letter. We would <br /> appreciate your sharing this letter, with other Board members and enter ng <br /> it;into the' record. <br /> We are convinced that substantial increases in local revenue are <br /> needed to pay for the impact of new rapid development on the Chapel <br /> Hill/Carrboro City School System. An increased impact fee is an, <br /> important part of the revenue mix. <br /> INCREASE CHAPEL HILL/CARRBORO IMPACT FEE TO AT LEAST $11500. A <br /> couple of years ago the Commissioners wisely established ark Impact fed <br /> for new residgntial construction as a part of a plan to pay for needed n <br /> facilities. The fee was set at $750 for new houses throughout the coup . <br /> The fee has been an important source of revenue, but it Is now clear tha <br /> it�is too low. We urge you to raise it to at least $1,5 00 per new residen ce <br /> for the Chapel Hilt/Carrboro school district. <br /> i <br /> $FPARATE CHAPEL•HIWCARRBORO AND ORANGE COUNTY FEES, IF <br /> NECESSARY. If-the increase is not needed and/or desired in the Orange <br /> County school district, then we urge you to increase the fee only for the <br /> C�apel Hill/Carrboro district. <br /> IMPACT FEE STUDY ALSO NEEDED. it is clear to us that the situation wo Id <br /> justify a substantially different fee producing greater revenue. It cout <br /> be a larger flat fee or one scaled to the size and impact of.particular <br /> types of houses. Given the importance of having a sound basis for this <br /> type of fee, we urge the Board to proceed'with a study over the summer of <br /> the most appropriate and effective type and size of impart fee. <br />
