“The field fees for the league are set to be the highest in the state, and the numbers that we're seeing right now are not— they're a baseline. It's going to only go up.”

From the transcript

My name is Sherman Powell again, and I'm here again. I don't have a real prepared speech this time, just to quickly say that I'm opposed to the increases in the fee schedule. I don't think this has been looked at enough. The field fees for the league are set to be the highest in the state, and the numbers that we're seeing right now are not— they're a baseline. It's going to only go up.
