Top issues during term (5)(Development)
Lemon Springs Meadows Rezoning Denied
While this boom brings new investment to the area, it could eventually lead to higher tax burdens or infrastructure costs to pay for the roads and schools we need to keep up.
Morgan Fields Subdivision Wells Concern
Well drilling costs fall on the developer/builder now, but future well failures would be homeowner expenses.
State Directed Grants Totaling $730,600
Brings $730,600 in outside state money into the county with no local match required.
Nicholson Road rezoning for single-family homes
No direct county cost; changes the development potential of the parcel.
real estate development
Property values and local business revenue could see a nice bump, but taxpayers might end up footing the bill for traffic fixes.
