Subject: | Prohibiting the distribution of Impact Fees generated from natural gas development to any county that is suing over fossil fuel use |
In the near future, I plan to introduce legislation that would prohibit the distribution of Impact Fees generated from natural gas development to any county that is actively suing over fossil fuel use. Revenue that is currently allocated through Impact Fees to a county that is in on-going litigation shall be redirected to housing assistance. It is only fitting that those counties which choose to support the safe and responsible development of our domestic energy resources benefit from those Impact Fee and Legacy funds. I hope you will join me in supporting this measure. |
