I guess the question is, if development fees being collected by the city are down, and it's a trend, why?

Is this part of a macro trend pointing towards a slowdown in the overall economy? Or, is this simply the pace of development in Denver leveling off? In my neighborhood (Jefferson Park), I really haven't seen a noticeable slowdown in new housing construction. There are multiple projects that are either beginning construction, or have just begun, and a few others in various stages of construction. If you compare to a couple years ago, then yeah I could see how the numbers suggest a slowdown, but hard to say what exactly is driving all of it.
