Year after year, lobbyists for special interests try for end runs around local governments, and lawmakers in Tallahassee oblige them, at our expense. As one wag put it, the Legislature’s attitude seems to be that it graced cities with the right to exist and they overstepped their boundaries.
The legislators proved again this year that they’re the ones overstepping common sense and good governance. They promoted nearly four dozen bills meant to step on local officials’ ability to look out for communities’ best interests, including legislation that would limit impact fees paid by developers to cover the cost of roads and schools needed to serve their developments.
