I hope there are proffers proposed for the rezoning that mitigates the Impact to Schools, Roads, Parks and Public Safety.
Stafford County goes into School debt by over $65,000 to pay for the school impact for each house that is built. A subdivision with 1,000 houses puts the County into debt by over $65,000,000.
Those same houses pay roughly $5,000 each in Real Estate tax for a combined total of $5,000,000 annually in revenue.
If you add the cost of the other impacts the County goes into debt by well over $100,000 for each house. Without proffers to help offset the cost the Burdon is put on the taxpayers.
The fastest growing counties in Virginia have the highest tax rates.
