Fee increases
I may be wrong but I thought the fee was for launch only. When I saw the town transfer fee collection to Brown's I thought $10 wasn't enough to make it worth their while. Before that I thought there was no way the town was taking in enough money to pay for the attendant. I think raising the fee to $20 is a good idea as it does help offset costs and I can't imagine it would prevent anyone from launching at the town ramps.
As for the facility fee we've been paying $10 for a two year period. Doubling it to $20 is not going to create a hardship.
Given that the cost of everything else has gone up I think the first increases since 1990 is probably long overdue.
