Utility Rates, Impact Fees Public Comment from Sean DomanTo whom it may concern: I am deeply, deeply alarmed by your intent to raise water and sewer rates
while halving the impact fees for new builds. This is an outrageous and regressive tax on your most
vulnerable constituents. It's another tax cut for the wealthy who want to move here and or build new
homes, a tax cut for builders and construction companies, and a tax increase for everyone else. I can't
tell you how outraged I am by this. My landlord has already informed me that my rent will be going up
because of this, and the rent situation is already out of control. I am writing to urge you, as strongly as
possible, NOT to enact these rate changes. If the city needs to increase revenue, you should consider
increasing the impact fee, not reducing it. Increase the hotel tax for all I care, but leave your hard
working constituents alone! If you do pass the rate changes, I personally will run for council in my ward,
and do the best I possibly can to get each and every one of you voted out. Sean M Doman 632 11th
