Higher Taxes for Raleigh

Well, the City Council has gotten serious about raising ‘impact’ fees – taxes on new homes and buildings – and there’s bad news for churches, schools, and people buying houses in Raleigh.



For instance, The News and Observer reports the new tax increase will cost Wake Cross Roads Baptist church $20,256 – when it expands.



And the Council is increasing taxes on a major research university – like N.C. State – if it expands even more. 324%.



So that’s the bad news.



The City Council’s increasing taxes on praying, learning and owning a home.
