4 thoughts on “Homebuilders hope new fees yield quicker approvals

  1. The higher permitting fees ought to have zero impact on the affordability of a new house, because the cost of those fees are a tax-deductible business expense for builders.

    1. seriously? have you ever taken a business class? the cost will be passed through to the consumer. BUS101
      tax deductible items just don’t disappear. your property taxes are deductible – does it still hurt your wallet?

  2. BNS has a surplus so large that it is what the City is using to pay for alley resurfacing. Perhaps if they used that money on staff they wouldn’t have a surplus and would be fully staffed.

  3. Has anyone studied the permitting process to see how many (if any) unnecessary and time wasting steps are involved? Hard to imagine that there is not some way to streamline the process when you take several months to complete something and some areas can do in 2 weeks.
