Facts and evidence must be presented to charge fees for New Development and Construction impacting communities. A reasonable relationship or NEXUS must be established to justify a need to expand police department services and other public safety improvements.
​
Municipalities / Planning Boards are relentless in their zeal to fund capital additions to their public safety systems by increasing police facilities and equipment. A prevailing contention is the need to maintain existing levels of police response and protection services without unfairly imposing increased taxation upon the owners and residents of existing buildings within a community.
​
However, is this reasonable concern misguided and blurring injustice towards builders and developers?

Exorbitant and unreasonable public safety mitigation fees are the hidden unfairness when inappropriately considered, applied, or assessed.
