Montgomery may raise building fees
Montgomery County officials may consider removing the cap on commercial building fees, a move that could bring in more revenue but alienate businesses that would have to spend millions of dollars more to launch construction projects, The Washington Examiner reports.
The rethinking of the fee structure comes after a new report from Montgomery's oversight program, CountyStat, found that the cap cost the county $13 million in lost revenue during a recent three-year stretch.
