He said that under the law, it is appropriate to use impact fees to pa <br />the proportionate share of the new infrastructure that is necessary to accommodate the expansion <br />of the facility. p <br />Administrator Baird said staff would see what it would cost to have the <br />hardened so it could be used as a hurricane evacuation center. structure <br />The Chairman <br />CALLED THE <br />Motion carried unanimously. <br />I2.I.
