in the case of Wolf Creek (the counties planned community for gov. employees and recipient of a $5 mil state grant) NWF daily news reported from about $84K to $125K...in the old Bear Creek (land aquired by the county from JOE) a whopping 5 or 6 properties were sold i think under 100k the rest of the lots ended up in the regular RE market and most recently 8 lots or so were to be auctioned off to the highest bidder...only 1 was because the offer price was so low...at Watersound North it was pointed out that Joe agreed to some units being sold at "more affordable" prices compared to their other 30-A developments and are now around the low $700's and $175 or so for lots...
the new ordinance 10 years late in coming will probably have the same kind of follow through and results...the county has little ability to enforce or control things that occur say 5 minutes after they legislate them and also have not showed much desire to fine developers that don't quite follow all the rules...catch 22 is with all the impact fees,developer infrastructure cost,traffic concurrency fees, permitting and time costs involved in developing in walco who could provide "affordable" housing?
