Concurrency Moratorium - How will this affect the Mobility Plan?

[Charles Hunter]

If there is a moratorium, or the fees made low so they don't "hurt job creation" there will be no way to fund the plan, and development subsidized by the rest of us will continue - someone will have to pay for the improvements.

Correct.  If there is a moratorium, the cost of development will continue to be subsidized by the rest of us.  Considering we don't have any money now, this means at some point, a major tax increase would be needed.

It is a good idea, if the politicians don't screw it up.

or we just ignore the problems, let congestion grow, and limit mobility...of course, at some point that will hurt job growth...oops!

"Job Growth" = Cronyism

There have been many selfish acts performed under the disguise of 'creating jobs'.  Most often we are simply moving jobs from one part of town to another - like from downtown to southpoint.
