In response to paying the fees now instead of the future, Mr. Coniglio cited the following MPO
example to consider. He reported in the past $8,000 was needed per 1,000 square feet of road

was a quote of 85% true value which could rise. He also reported it costs two million to pave
one mile of a one-way road.
