Residential Building Permits Issued
by Fiscal Year
As building
permits go down the revenue from those permits also goes down (What was not
mentioned is that if the permits are for new homes the expense of providing
services to those homes never occurs. By law development fees can only be
spent on what they were collected for. Obviously if nothing new is built
there is no need for the fees, so it is hard to see the relevance of this
information to the problem at hand.)
