”Think local. Think Brazos!” The Think Brazos Podcast hosts conversations with locals, politicians, and experts to discuss policies that impact housing affordability, economic opportunity, and financial resiliency for families in Brazos County. Disclosure and disclaimer: The purpose of the Think Brazos Podcast is to present to the public a deeper sense of who the candidates are who hope to lead this community and to create a space for them to present their ideas, especially about housing and affordability. However, as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Bryan-College Station Habitat for Humanity (which created and sponsors Think Brazos) does not and cannot endorse any particular candidate or political party. The open dialogue we create by doing our utmost to speak to every candidate for a particular political race we decide to cover should in no way be construed as an endorsement of the candidate or his/her political party. Further, the ideas and opinions expressed by the candidates we interview are purely their own and not necessarily those of Habitat for Humanity. Housing affordability is an important issue, so we thank you for following the Think Brazos Podcast. Executive Producer - Bryan/College Station Habitat for Humanity, Inc.

21. College Station Impact Fees with Fred Dupriest

In this episode, Think Brazos Podcast host Charles Coats interviews Fred Dupriest about the use of impact fees for College Station.
What are impact fees? They're basically an up front, one-time charge to a developer (someone who prepares land for or builds a home or business) in order to help the city pay for anticipated future expenses related to the development (water, sewer, roadway, etc). Here's a link to the College Station City website for more information.
As with any policy, there are people for it and against it, and we've interviewed both. Be sure to check out our episode with Randy French on impact fees too.
Whatever you think about impact fees, we can agree that we want all residents of College Station to benefit from the growth we're experiencing.
Thanks for listening to the Think Brazos Podcast and just remember - "Think local. Think Brazos!"
