That's a good question..both pieces…..exempting the locals and how do they charge touch and goes.  I've never paid a landing fee, so I'm quite unfamiliar with the whole thing.

A lot of airports are the ones who sell the fuel which probably explains the $25 credit if you buy fuel. Just their way of trying to make the fees more acceptable for GA aircraft. My bet is they probably exempt aircraft based at the airport. Curious how they handle aircraft who do touch and goes. Probably only charge if you park your AC there.

So I don't understand…..if the airport is charging the fee…..what does buying fuel have to do with it?

If you pay the fees probably the airport. If you buy fuel depends on who sells the fuel at the airport. So if you buy fuel most of it goes to the fuel company as usual.

So who does the 25 bucks go to?  The FBO or the airport?

I agree fees for GA need to be fought with everything you got. Looking at their website the fees are not that excessive and you get $25 credit if you buy $25 of fuel..

Yeah, I know things like this are more commonplace in other parts of the world. So are ATC "user fees". But it's just not common here, and never has been, which is why there is more resistance to it. You just know they're going to continue to try forcing u ser fees down our throats until some day we all just give in.
