Several Marshall Fire victims rallied in front of Louisville City Hall Saturday over thousands of dollars in fees the city is charging to those wanting to rebuild
LOUISVILLE, Colo. — The emotion was still somewhat raw as several Marshall Fire victims rallied in front of Louisville City Hall Saturday over thousands of dollars in fees the city is charging to those wanting to rebuild.
At the protest Saturday, the message from all those who lost their homes in the Marshall Fire was a simple one directed at elected council members: step-up and do what’s right.“I think the whole community is standing up and saying, ‘Well – of course – this is what we need,’” Ackerman said. “We’re all trying to nail this down so we can just go, ‘Okay, let’s build our house,’” Somauroo said. “Just the use tax is about 3.6% on new construction, which is an average of about $25,000 for every new home."
