Last night I paid $11.32 for a three piece Kentucky Fried Chicken dinner; no drink. I mention this because a lack of management by federal administrations and a political federal reserve board have created high inflation. that directly raises prices and is a very cruel tax; particularly on the low income sector.
The costs of labor affects every aspect of our economy including the delivery and waste water treatment. Additionally. scarce water resources must be considered to assure greater conservation. If housing growth is controlled -limited then higher costs to protect out future is warranted.
Seriously , we are already getting hit with higher taxes and higher prices at the federal state levels and now that more people are moving to the tri city area you want people to pay higher taxes and fees for water, here’s a suggestion stop building all these new houses, have lived here for 52 years.Put a stop to all the building!!
I agree with you completely Linda. The City of Prescott has become money hungry and are putting its residents last on the list. There is too much building going on all throughout Prescott. The City makes so much money on the impact fees and we are left with no water. When is someone in this what use to be small quiet friendly town going to finally stand up and put a stop to this. To many people, way to many cars for our streets, to much building, stop it City of Prescott!
