What are Mello-Roos fees?
What will be an ideal response?
Cities can charge homebuilders and developers heavy fees for the construction-related costs of new infrastructure such as new streets, school construction, sewers, street lighting, and so forth. Developers can pass these fees to homebuyers in the form of Mello-Roos fees which can amount to thousands of dollars per home annually, and take the form of a lien placed against each property that will be in effect until paid off (sometimes as long as 40 years). Fees can vary dramatically from area to area, and even house to house.
