Summary
Commissioner Krebs says the county's development review process is broken: traffic studies showing failing intersections aren't being analyzed or explained to the Planning Commission or Board of Zoning Appeals, and developers aren't paying their share of road fixes. She's demanding written answers and a fix before more approvals pile up in her district.

Impact analysis
Krebs argues residents and taxpayers end up footing the bill for road fixes that developers' fee-in-lieu offers — like a $200,000 offer on a multi-million-dollar intersection problem — don't come close to covering.
Residents of the Freedom District would benefit from a process that catches failing intersections before development is approved.
Residents stuck in worsening congestion, and ultimately taxpayers who may pay for improvements developers avoid.
