The city is already making tons of money from homeowners, now they want to make more. I think it is time we tell the City Council enough is enough. Stop raising fees for the people who live in this city, we are tired of it. Ever look at any of the city fees, they are some of the highest around.

Weird that someone in the Willows is objecting to fees on new construction to fix traffic.
