Many groups do have chartering fees, and when you see it as a chunk, it is intimidating.
If this is a problem I would get an outline from the national HQ of what all they promise to do for you as a colony/new chapter (i.e. live in consultant, consultant visits, officer training etc). If it can be shown that they're meeting the group halfway that might make it go down a little easier.
