While everyone else is having to batten down the hatches during this economy, DPOR has not recieved the message. The state budget has shown all tax payers that the Commonwealth has no idea what small businesses have to comply with just to keep our doors open so we can continue sending in our tax dollars. Increasing fees in these hard times for all of us that support the Housing Industry is breaking the stick on the backs of those that create jobs and supply the necessity of a roof over our heads. Please do as the private sector has had to do over these past three years which is to cut the cost of doing business without increasing our prices. With increases between 36-65% we all could continue to do business as usual and even give ourselves salary bonuses. Every little bit helps with bringing this economy around to the positive again. Thank you (in advance) for not imposing these increases at this time.
