WATERTOWN --- Watertown got approval from the state to charge linkage fees on new developments to raise money for affordable housing. With that OK, the city will now review a zoning amendment that would set the fee to be paid by new developments. The amendment, which is calling for a charge of $11.12 per square foot, will go before the planning board for a public hearing and then City Council, which makes the ultimate decision on whether to approve the amendment.
