A city desperate for tax dollars plays kick the can on its taxpayer's backs.

"Under terms of the conditional zoning, Toll Brothers has agreed to pay the city up to $1,025,460 for the cost of reconfiguring the Nixon/Green/Dhu Varren intersection, though Toll Brothers' share of the costs will go down as other developers contribute funds toward what's expected to be a roughly $2 million roundabout project.

 

Council members who voted against the conditional zoning didn't think the city was getting enough from the developer."

Duh.
