So they’re cutting build fees 70% but still asking for like… tens of millions? Sounds like a loophole.
Wait I thought build fees were supposed to help pay for roads, not like half the math is missing. Also Fanscy Family Hospital?? who names these projects lol.
The part about the Ojibway storm trunk sewer only asking $149,622 is wild, like they already fixed it and just needed paperwork. But 70% off build fees means residents still get stuck with the bill later I bet.
Howard Avenue sounds like it’s getting everything except my patience. Multi-use pathway, storm sewer, sanitary sewer, water main, street lighting… then they say they’re seeking $5.4M like that’s normal. Cutting fees 70% for millions of projects just feels like Windsor is doing whatever it wants again.
