Impact analysis
The CHP project faces a $29,590 sidewalk fee, while the Henry Shaw Hotel faces a $2.6 million workforce housing fee.
The city's infrastructure and housing funds benefit from these payments, which are intended to support broader community improvements.
Small business owners may face significant financial strain when required to pay these fees for projects that may not have the physical space for the improvements.
