Mr. Hubert Fitzpatrick:

Section 49 levies are borne entirely by first-time buyers but the services to be funded under the section 49 levies benefit the entire local community. It is an unfair charge on first-time buyers. A funding mechanism other than the section 49 levies should be in place on that front. Perhaps it could be funded from property tax or another form of general taxation of that nature. It is inequitable that first-time buyers of new homes have to fund a section 49 project in their locality.
