This difference has existed for a number of years, ever since NE went districts. Given that this fee also goes directly to the local district organization, I don't think we can assume that FIRST HQ has control over the amount.
Personally, I don't mind the higher fee either. The money is going to a group of people that have more intimate knowledge of the region (and it's needs) and know how to best utilize it for the benefit of the local teams.
