Quote of the Day: "The sponsor of that bill is nuts"

by: Jason Springer

Mon Mar 02, 2009 at 01:44:28 PM EST



Affordable housing is an emotional issue. The latest hot spot is legislation sponsored by Senator Lesniak, which would suspend a 2.5% developers fee on new construction along with refunding monies already collected has some people fired up:
"The sponsor of that bill is nuts," Florence administrator Richard Brook said. "I don't know what the state is thinking trying to get municipalities to return the money."
Maybe the administrator thought Scott Garrett was the sponsor of the legislation since they know what a fan he is of affordable housing. Either way, suspension of the fee won't put an end to the issue.  From the looks of it, the GOP candidates for Governor have already made attacking COAH a regular talking point.
