Rotelli gets partial refund of parking impact fees in Lake Worth

This fee amounted to extortion on the city's part if did nothing with the money collected.  There are some that are concerned about the "community benefits" portion of the proposed land development regulations (LDRs) as being one and the same.  Click title for link tto PBP article.  Here is an outtake from it:

"Commissioners Suzanne Mulvehill and Christopher McVoy voted against the refund.

The city was planning to use the money to build a parking garage but had only $150,000 in the downtown parking impact-fee fund. William Waters, director of the community sustainability department, said the city has not collected much in parking impact fees because there has not been much expansion downtown in recent years."
