9 i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. The report provided herein represents the Development Charge Background Study for the Town of Pelham required by the Development Charges Act (DCA). This report has been prepared in accordance with the methodology required under the DCA. The contents include the following: Chapter 1 Overview of the legislative requirements of the Act; Chapter 2 Review of present DC policies of the Town; Chapter 3 Summary of the residential and non-residential growth forecasts for the Town; Chapter 4 Approach to Calculating the Development Charge; Chapter 5 Review of historic service standards and identification of future capital requirements to service growth and related deductions and allocations; Chapter 6 Calculation of the development charges; Chapter 7 Development charge policy recommendations and rules; and Chapter 8 By-law implementation. 2. Development charges provide for the recovery of growth-related capital expenditures from new development. The Development Charges Act is the statutory basis to recover these charges. The methodology is detailed in Chapter 4. A simplified summary is provided below: 1) Identify amount, type and location of growth; 2) Identify servicing needs to accommodate growth; 3) Identify capital costs to provide services to meet the needs; 4) Deduct: i. Grants, subsidies and other contributions; ii. Benefit to existing development; iii. Statutory 10% deduction (soft services); iv. Amounts in excess of 10 year historic service calculation; v. DC Reserve Funds (where applicable); 5) Net costs then allocated between residential and non-residential benefit; and 6) Net costs divided by growth to provide the DC charge. 3. The growth forecast (Chapter 3) on which the Town-wide development charge is based, projects the following population, housing and non-residential floor area for the ten year ( ), long-term ( ) and urban build-out (2013 build out) periods.

10 Revised April 28, 2014 ii The 2013 Development Charge forecast provides for the following growth: Measure 10 Year 20 Year Fonthill Fenwick Urban Build Out 2013-Urban Build Out (Net) Population Increase 3,315 7,465 6,581 2,096 Residential Unit Increase 1,325 2,950 2, Non-Residential Gross Floor Area Increase (ft²) 418, , , ,100 Source: Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. Forecast On July 20, 2009, the Town of Pelham passed By-law Number #3049(2009), under the Development Charges Act, By-law Number #3049(2009) came into effect on August 17, 2009 and imposes development charges on residential and non-residential uses. The Town is undertaking a development charge public process with the mandatory public meeting scheduled for March 19th with adoption of the by-law anticipated subsequent to this date. 5. The development charges currently in effect are $6,310 for unserviced single detached dwelling units, $11,417 for the Fenwick municipal-wide plus water/wastewater area (i.e. urban service) and $9,092 for the Fonthill municipal-wide plus water/wastewater area (i.e. urban service) single detached dwelling units. There is currently no non-residential charge for unserviced space, and a $1.00 per square foot of non-residential space charge for both Fenwick and Fonthill areas. This report has undertaken a recalculation of the charges based on future identified needs (presented in Table ES-1 for Residential and Non-residential) and has been provided on a municipal-wide basis for all services except wastewater and water services which are calculated for Fenwick and Fonthill urban service area development only. For municipal-wide services, the calculated single-detached unit charge is $10,413 and the calculated non-residential commercial/ institutional charge (calculated on the same services and on the same basis) is $4.41 per square foot of building area. For the urban service area development of Fenwick and Fonthill, a combined water/wastewater charge was developed for the Fenwick/Fonthill service areas. These combined charges are $2,791 per single detached unit and $1.84 per square foot of building area. The total development charge including municipal-wide services in Fenwick and Fonthill is $13,204 per single detached unit and $6.25 per square foot of building area. These rates are submitted to Council for its consideration. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report - addendum 2.docx

11 Revised April 28, The Development Charges Act requires a summary to be provided of the gross capital costs and the net costs to be recovered over the life of the by-law. This calculation is provided by service and is presented in Table 6-5. A summary of these costs is provided below: iii Total gross expenditures planned over the next five years $ 50,949,354 Less: Benefit to existing development $ 11,657,857 Post planning period benefit $ 13,917,409 Ineligible re: Level of Service $ - Mandatory 10% deduction for certain services $ 572,283 Grants, subsidies and other contributions $ 142,765 Net Costs to be recovered from development charges $ 24,659,040 Hence, $26.29 million (or an annual amount of $5.26 million) will need to be contributed from taxes, rates and other recoveries (e.g. grants, contributions from other municipalities, etc.). Based on the above capital listing, the Town plans to spend $50.95 million over the next five years of which $24.66 million (48%) is recoverable from development charges. Of this net amount, $21.26 million is recoverable from residential development and $3.40 million from non-residential development. It is noted also that any exemptions or reductions in the charges would reduce this recovery further. 7. Considerations by Council The background study represents the service needs arising from residential and non-residential growth over the forecast periods. Municipal-wide services which include Services related to a Roads & Related and Fire Protection Services are calculated based on a 20 year forecast. All other municipal wide services, which include Parks, Recreation, Library and Administration, are calculated based on a 10 year forecast. Area specific services which include Water and Sanitary Sewers are calculated based on a build out urban forecast. However, Council will consider the findings and recommendations provided for in the report and, in conjunction with public input, approve such policies and rates it deems appropriate. These directions will refine the draft DC by-law which is included in Appendix F. These decisions may include: adopting the charges and policies recommended herein; considering additional exemptions to the by-law; Watson & Associates Economists Ltd H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report - addendum 2.docx

12 iv considering reductions in the charge by class of development (obtained by removing certain services on which the charge is based and/or by a general reduction in the charge); and consider the timing of collection (i.e. whether some or all components shall be received at the time of building permit issuance or earlier).

17 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose of this Document This background study has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of the Development Charges Act, 1997 (s.10), and accordingly, recommends new development charges and policies for the Town of Pelham. The Town retained Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. (Watson), to undertake the development charges (DC) study process in Watson worked with staff of the Town in preparing this DC analysis and policy recommendations. This Development Charge Background Study, containing the proposed Development Charge By-law, will be distributed to members of the public in order to provide interested parties with sufficient background information on the legislation, the study s recommendations and an outline of the basis for these recommendations. This report has been prepared, in the first instance, to meet the statutory requirements applicable to the Town s Development Charge Background Study, as summarized in Chapter 4. It also addresses the requirement for rules (contained in Chapter 7) and the proposed by-law to be made available as part of the approval process (included as Appendix F). In addition, the report is designed to set out sufficient background on the legislation (Chapter 4), current Pelham DC policy (Chapter 2) and the policies underlying the proposed by-laws, to make the exercise understandable to those who are involved. Finally, it addresses post-adoption implementation requirements (Chapter 8) which are critical to the successful application of the new policy. The Chapters in the report are supported by Appendices containing the data required to explain and substantiate the calculation of the charge. A full discussion of the statutory requirements for the preparation of a background study and calculation of a development charge is provided herein. 1.2 Summary of the Process The Public Meeting required under section 12 of the Development Charges Act, 1997, has been scheduled for November 19, Its purpose is to present the study to the public and to solicit public input. The meeting is also being held to answer any questions regarding the study s purpose, methodology and the proposed modifications to the Town s development charges.

27 ANTICIPATED DEVELOPMENT IN THE TOWN OF PELHAM 3.1 Requirement of the Act Chapter 4 provides the methodology for calculating a development charge as per the Development Charges Act, Figure 4-1 presents this methodology graphically. It is noted in the first box of the schematic that in order to determine the development charge that may be imposed, it is a requirement of Section 5 (1) of the Development Charges Act that the anticipated amount, type and location of development, for which development charges can be imposed, must be estimated. The growth forecast contained in this chapter (with supplemental tables in Appendix A) provides for the anticipated development for which the Town of Pelham will be required to provide services, over a 10-year ( ), 20-year ( ) and urban buildout time horizon. 3.2 Basis of Population, Household and Non-Residential Gross Floor Area Forecast In compiling the growth forecast for the Town of Pelham, the following other reports were consulted to help assess annual residential and non-residential development activity over the forecast period, including: Official Plan (OP) of the Town of Pelham 2012 The population forecasts contained in the 2013 DC Background Study are consistent with the 20-year population, housing and employment growth analysis contained within the Town s 2012 OP. Niagara Region Growth Management Strategy (GMS), A Preferred Growth Option for Niagara Phase 3 and 4 Report, December, 2008 The Niagara GMS (Niagara 2031) was approved by the Niagara Region Committee of the Whole on February 10, For the purposes of the Town s 2013 DC Background Study, Pelham s population and employment forecast has been derived from the Option D growth forecast. The short-term population and housing forecast has been reduced from that reported in the Option D forecast to reflect the 2011 Census and recent development trends. Town of Pelham 2009 Development Charge Background Study The population, housing and employment forecasts contained within the Town of Pelham 2009 DC Background Study have been reviewed and updated regarding the amount, location and timing of growth identified for Pelham. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

28 Summary of Growth Forecast A detailed analysis of the residential and non-residential growth forecasts is provided in Appendix A, and the methodology employed is illustrated in Figure 3-1. The discussion provided herein summarizes the anticipated growth for the Town and describes the basis for the forecast. The results of the residential growth forecast analysis are summarized in Table 3-1 and Schedule 1 in Appendix A. As identified in Table 3-1 and Schedule 1, the Town s population is anticipated to reach approximately 20,110 by 2023, 24,260 by 2033, and 25,620 by urban buildout, resulting in an increase of 3,320, 7,470, and 8,830 persons respectively over the 10-year, 20-year and buildout forecast periods, respectively. 1 FIGURE 3-1 DEMAND SUPPLY Historical Housing Construction Residential Units in the Development Process Forecast of Residential Units by Structure Type Employment Market by Local Municipality, Economic Outlook Local, Regional and Provincial Intensification Occupancy Assumptions Designated Gross Population Increase Decline in Existing Population Servicing Capacity Net Population Increase HOUSEHOLD FORMATION-BASED POPULATION AND HOUSEHOLD PROJECTION MODEL 1 Population figures exclude the net Census undercount which is estimated at approximately 4%.

31 Unit Mix (Appendix A Schedules 1, 6 and 7) The unit mix for the Town, outlined in Schedule 1, was derived from an analysis of the Town s short-term residential supply (as per Schedule 6, Appendix A), as well as through an analysis of historical development activity (as per Schedule 7, Appendix A). Based on the above indicators, the 20-year household growth forecast is comprised of a unit mix of 77% low density (single family and semi-detached), 17% medium density (multiples except apartments) and 6% high density (bachelor, 1 bedroom and 2+ bedroom apartments). 2. Geographic Location of Residential Development, Appendix A, Schedules 2 and 6 Schedule 2 summarizes the anticipated amount, type and location of development for Pelham by urban and rural area. Schedule 6 summarizes the Town s potential supply of future housing units available in the development approvals process. In accordance with available supply and anticipated demand, forecast housing growth has been allocated to the following areas over the 20-year forecast period: O Fonthill 73% O Fenwick 23% O Rural 4% 3. Planning Period Short-, medium- and long-term time horizons are required for the DC process. The DCA limits the planning horizon for certain services such as parks, recreation and libraries to a 10-year planning horizon. Roads, water and wastewater services utilize a longer planning period. 4. Population in New Units (Appendix A - Schedules 3 through 5) The number of permanent housing units to be constructed in Pelham during the short-, medium- and long-term periods is presented on Figure 3-2 (an average of approximately 148 total housing units per annum over the 20-year time horizon). Population in new units are derived from Schedules 3, 4a, 4b, and 5, which incorporate historical development activity, anticipated units by structure type (see unit mix discussion) and average persons per unit by dwelling type for new units. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

32 3-6 Schedules 8a and 8b summarize the average number of persons per unit (PPU) for new housing units by age and structure type, based on 2006 custom Census data for the Town of Pelham and Niagara Region. Due to a lack of data at the Town level, the average PPU for new apartment units has been derived from Niagara Region data. The total calculated PPU for each density type has been adjusted to account for the downward PPU trend which has been recently experienced in both new and older units, largely due to the aging of the population. For each density type, the adjusted 20-year average PPU is as follows: o Low density (single and semi-detached): 3.05 o Medium density (townhomes and apartments in duplexes): 2.13 o High density (apartments): Existing Units and Population Change (Appendix A - Schedules 2, 3, 4 and 5) Existing households for mid-2013 are based on the 2011 Census households, plus estimated residential units constructed between mid-2011 and mid-2013, assuming a 6-month lag between construction and occupancy (see Schedule 3). The decline in average occupancy levels for existing housing units is calculated in Schedules 3, 4 and 5, by aging the existing population over the forecast period. The forecast population decline in existing households over the 20-year forecast period is approximately Employment (Appendix A, Schedule 10a, 10b, 10c, 11 and 12) The employment forecast is largely based on the activity rate method, which is defined as the number of jobs in a municipality divided by the number of residents. Key employment sectors include primary, industrial, commercial/ population-related, institutional, and work at home, which are considered individually below. The 2011 employment estimate 1 (place of work) for the Town of Pelham is outlined in Schedule 10a. The 2011 employment base is comprised of the following sectors: O 270 primary (7%); O 820 work at home employment (21%); O 639 industrial (16%); O 1,460 commercial/population-related (38%); and O 697 institutional (18%) employment derived by Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

33 3-7 The 2011 total employment estimate, excluding employees with no fixed place of work (NFPOW), 1 is approximately 3,885. The 2011 employment base, including no fixed place of work (NFPOW), totals approximately 4,295 employees. Total employment 2 for the Town of Pelham is anticipated to reach approximately 5,334 by mid-2023, 6,380 by mid-2033 and 6,670 by buildout. This represents an employment increase of 950 for the 10-year forecast period, 2,000 for the 20- year forecast period and 2,290 from 2013 to buildout. Schedule 10b, summarizes the employment forecast excluding work at home and NFPOW employment, which is the basis for the DC employment forecast. The impact on municipal services from work at home employees has already been included in the population forecast. The impacts on municipal services regarding NFPOW employees are less clear, given the transient nature of these employees. Furthermore, since these employees have no fixed work address, they cannot be captured in the non-residential gross floor area (GFA) calculation. Accordingly, work at home and NFPOW employees have been removed from the DC calculation. Total employment for the Town of Pelham (excluding work at home and NFPOW employment) is anticipated to reach approximately 4,650 by mid This represents an employment increase of approximately 1,520 during the 20-year forecast period. 7. Non-Residential Sq.ft. Estimates (Gross Floor Area (GFA), Appendix A, Schedule 10b) Square footage estimates were calculated in Schedule 10b, based on the following employee density assumptions: O 1,300 sq.ft. per employee for industrial; O 500 sq.ft. per employee for commercial/population related; and O 700 sq.ft. per employee for institutional employment. The Town-wide incremental Gross Floor Area (GFA) increase is anticipated to be 418,750 over the 10-year forecast period, 910,330 over the 20-year forecast period and 1,040,140 to buildout. In terms of percentage growth, the 20-year incremental GFA forecast by sector is broken down as follows: o industrial 38%; o commercial/population-related 49%; and o institutional 13%. 1 Statistics Canada defines "no fixed place of work" (NFPOW) employees as, "persons who do not go from home to the same work place location at the beginning of each shift. Such persons include building and landscape contractors, travelling salespersons, independent truck drivers, etc. 2 Figure includes work at home (WAH) and no fixed place of work (NFPOW).

35 4. THE APPROACH TO CALCULATION OF THE CHARGE Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

36

37 THE APPROACH TO CALCULATION OF THE CHARGE 4.1 Introduction This chapter addresses the requirements of s.s.5(1) of the DCA, 1997 with respect to the establishment of the need for service which underpins the development charge calculation. These requirements are illustrated schematically in Figure Services Potentially Involved Table 4-1 lists the full range of municipal service categories which are provided within the Town. A number of these services are defined in s.s.2(4) of the DCA, 1997 as being ineligible for inclusion in development charges. These are shown as ineligible on Table 4-1. Two ineligible costs defined in s.s.5(3) of the DCA are computer equipment and rolling stock with an estimated useful life of (less than) seven years... In addition, local roads are covered separately under subdivision agreements and related means (as are other local services). Services which are potentially eligible for inclusion in the Town s development charge are indicated with a Yes. 4.3 Increase in the Need for Service The development charge calculation commences with an estimate of the increase in the need for service attributable to the anticipated development, for each service to be covered by the by-law. There must be some form of link or attribution between the anticipated development and the estimated increase in the need for service. While the need could conceivably be expressed generally in terms of units of capacity, s.s.5(1)3, which requires that Municipal Council indicate that it intends to ensure that such an increase in need will be met, suggests that a project-specific expression of need would be most appropriate.

41 Local Service Policy Some of the need for services generated by additional development consists of local services related to a plan of subdivision. As such, they will be required as a condition of subdivision agreements or consent conditions. The Town of Pelham uses the local service guidelines provided in Appendix E. 4.5 Capital Forecast Paragraph 7 of s.s.5(1) of the DCA requires that the capital costs necessary to provide the increased services must be estimated. The Act goes on to require two potential cost reductions and the Regulation sets out the way in which such costs are to be presented. These requirements are outlined below. These estimates involve capital costing of the increased services discussed above. This entails costing actual projects or the provision of service units, depending on how each service has been addressed. The capital costs include: a) costs to acquire land or an interest therein (including a leasehold interest); b) costs to improve land; c) costs to acquire, lease, construct or improve buildings and structures; d) costs to acquire, lease or improve facilities including rolling stock (with useful life of 7 or more years), furniture and equipment (other than computer equipment), materials acquired for library circulation, reference or information purposes; e) interest on money borrowed to pay for the above-referenced costs; f) costs to undertake studies in connection with the above-referenced matters; and g) costs of the development charge background study. In order for an increase in need for service to be included in the DC calculation, Municipal Council must indicate...that it intends to ensure that such an increase in need will be met (s.s.5 (1)3). This can be done if the increase in service forms part of a Council-approved Official Plan, capital forecast or similar expression of the intention of Council (O.Reg. 82/98 s.3). The capital program contained herein reflects the Town s approved and proposed capital budgets and master servicing/needs studies. 4.6 Treatment of Credits Section 8 para. 5 of O.Reg. 82/98 indicates that a development charge background study must set out, The estimated value of credits that are being carried forward relating to the service. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

42 s.s.17 para. 4 of the same Regulation indicates that,...the value of the credit cannot be recovered from future development charges, if the credit pertains to an ineligible service. This implies that a credit for eligible services can be recovered from future development charges. As a result, this provision should be made in the calculation, in order to avoid a funding shortfall with respect to future service needs. There are no outstanding DC credit obligations that would affect the development charge calculations Eligible Debt and Committed Excess Capacity Section 66 of the DCA, 1997 states that for the purposes of developing a development charge by-law, a debt incurred with respect to an eligible service may be included as a capital cost, subject to any limitations or reductions in the Act. Similarly, s.18 of O.Reg. 82/98 indicates that debt with respect to an ineligible service may be included as a capital cost, subject to several restrictions. In order for such costs to be eligible, two conditions must apply. First, they must have funded excess capacity which is able to meet service needs attributable to the anticipated development. Second, the excess capacity must be committed, that is, either before or at the time it was created, Council must have expressed a clear intention that it would be paid for by development charges or other similar charges. For example, this may have been done as part of previous development charge processes. It is noted that projects which have been debentured to date and to which the principal and interest costs need to be recovered are included within the capital detail sheets. 4.8 Existing Reserve Funds Section 35 of the DCA states that: The money in a reserve fund established for a service may be spent only for capital costs determined under paragraphs 2 to 8 of subsection 5(1). There is no explicit requirement under the DCA calculation method set out in s.s.5(1) to net the outstanding reserve fund balance as part of making the DC calculation; however, s.35 does restrict the way in which the funds are used in future. For services which are subject to a per capita-based, service level cap, the reserve fund balance should be applied against the development-related costs for which the charge was imposed, once the project is constructed (i.e. the needs of recent growth). This cost component is distinct from the development-related costs for the next 10 year period, which underlie the DC calculation herein. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

43 The alternative would involve the Town spending all reserve fund monies prior to renewing each by-law, which would not be a sound basis for capital budgeting. Thus, the Town will use these reserve funds for the Town s cost share of applicable development-related projects, which are required but have not yet been undertaken, as a way of directing the funds to the benefit of the development which contributed them (rather than to future development, which will generate the need for additional facilities directly proportionate to future growth). The Town s Development Charge Reserve Fund Balance by service at December 31, 2012 is shown below: Service Totals Public Works $12, Fire Protection Services $151, Parks and Recreation $568, Library Services $125, General Government ($74,088.00) Stormwater Drainage and Control Services $21, Wastewater Services $149, Water Services $205, Total $1,161, Deductions The DCA, 1997 potentially requires that five deductions be made to the increase in the need for service. These relate to: The level of service ceiling; Uncommitted excess capacity; Benefit to existing development; Anticipated grants, subsidies and other contributions; and 10% reduction for certain services. The requirements behind each of these reductions are addressed as follows: Reduction Required by Level of Service Ceiling This is designed to ensure that the increase in need included in 4.3 does not include an increase that would result in the level of service (for the additional development increment) exceeding the average level of the service provided in the municipality over the 10-year period immediately preceding the preparation of the background study O.Reg (s.4) goes further to indicate that both the quantity and quality of a service shall be taken into account in determining the level of service and the average level of service. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

44 In many cases, this can be done by establishing a quantity measure in terms of units as floor area, land area or road length per capita and a quality measure, in terms of the average cost of providing such units based on replacement costs, engineering standards or recognized performance measurement systems, depending on circumstances. When the quantity and quality factor are multiplied together, they produce a measure of the level of service, which meets the requirements of the Act, i.e. cost per unit. 4-8 The average service level calculation sheets for each service component in the DC calculation are set out in Appendix B Reduction for Uncommitted Excess Capacity Paragraph 5 of s.s.5(1) requires a deduction from the increase in the need for service attributable to the anticipated development that can be met using the Town s excess capacity, other than excess capacity which is committed (discussed above in 4.7). Excess capacity is undefined, but in this case must be able to meet some or all of the increase in need for service, in order to potentially represent a deduction. The deduction of uncommitted excess capacity from the future increase in the need for service, would normally occur as part of the conceptual planning and feasibility work associated with justifying and sizing new facilities, e.g. if a road widening to accommodate increased traffic is not required because sufficient excess capacity is already available, then widening would not be included as an increase in need, in the first instance Reduction for Benefit to Existing Development This step involves a further reduction to the need, by the extent to which such an increase in service would benefit existing development. The level of services cap in is related, but is not the identical requirement. Sanitary, storm and water trunks are highly localized to growth areas and can be more readily allocated in this regard than other services such as roads which do not have a fixed service area. Where existing development has an adequate service level, which will not be tangibly increased by an increase in service, no benefit would appear to be involved. For example, where expanding existing library facilities simply replicates what existing residents are receiving, they receive very limited (or no) benefit as a result. On the other hand, where a clear existing service problem is to be remedied, a deduction should be made, accordingly. In the case of services such as recreation facilities, community parks, libraries, etc., the service is typically provided on a municipal-wide system basis. For example, facilities of the same type may provide different services (i.e. leisure pool vs. competitive pool), different programs (i.e. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

45 hockey vs. figure skating) and different time availability for the same service (i.e. leisure skating available on Wednesday in one arena and Thursday in another). As a result, residents will travel to different facilities to access the services they want at the times they wish to use them, and facility location generally does not correlate directly with residence location. Even where it does, displacing users from an existing facility to a new facility frees up capacity for use by others and generally results in only a very limited benefit to existing development. Further, where an increase in demand is not met for a number of years, a negative service impact to existing development is involved for a portion of the planning period Reduction for Anticipated Grants, Subsidies and Other Contributions This step involves reducing the capital costs necessary to provide the increased services by capital grants, subsidies and other contributions made or anticipated by Council and in accordance with various rules such as the attribution between the share related to new vs. existing development. (i.e. some grants and contributions may not specifically be applicable to growth, such as the COMRIF Grant program or where Council targets fundraising as a measure to offset impacts on taxes.) O.Reg s The 10% Reduction Paragraph 8 of s.s.(1) of the DCA requires that, the capital costs must be reduced by 10 percent. This paragraph does not apply to water supply services, waste water services, storm water drainage and control services, services related to a highway, police and fire protection services. The primary services that the 10% reduction does apply to include services such as parks, recreation, libraries, childcare/social services, Provincial Offences Act, ambulance, homes for the aged, health and transit. The 10% is to be netted from the capital costs necessary to provide the increased services, once the other deductions have been made, as per the infrastructure costs sheets in Chapter 5.

49 5. DEVELOPMENT CHARGE ELIGIBLE COST ANALYSIS BY SERVICE Introduction This chapter outlines the basis for calculating development charge eligible costs for the development charges to be applied on a uniform basis. In each case, the required calculation process set out in s.5(1) paragraphs 2 to 8 in the DCA, 1997, and described in Chapter 4, was followed in determining DC eligible costs. The nature of the capital projects and timing identified in the Chapter reflects Council s current intention. However, over time, municipal projects and Council priorities change and accordingly, Council s intentions may alter, and different capital projects (and timing) may be required to meet the need for services required by new growth. 5.2 Service Levels and 10-Year Capital Costs for DC Calculation This section evaluates the development-related capital requirements for all of the softer services over a ten-year planning period. Each service component is evaluated on two format sheets: the average historical ten-year level of service calculation (see Appendix B), which caps the DC amounts; and the infrastructure cost calculation, which determines the potential DC recoverable cost Administration The DCA permits the inclusion of studies undertaken to facilitate completion of the Town s capital works program. The Town has made provision for the inclusion of new studies undertaken to facilitate this DC process, as well as other studies which benefit growth (in whole or part). The listing of studies included in the DC includes the following: East Fonthill and Fenwick Secondary Plans Master Plan; East Fonthill Study Consortium; and Development Charges studies. The cost of these studies including the DC reserve fund deficit balance of $74,088 is $1,019,434. The net growth-related capital cost, after the mandatory 10% deduction, where applicable, is $918,783, which has been included in the development charge. This cost has been allocated 82% residential and 18% non-residential based on the incremental growth in population to employment, for the 10-year forecast period. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

51 Recreation Services The Town operates multiple indoor recreation facilities providing a total of 38,162 sq.ft of space. The average historic level of service for the previous ten years has been approximately 2.3 sq.ft. of space per capita or an investment of $441 per capita. Based on this service standard, the Town would be eligible to collect approximately $1,461,875 from DC s for facility space. The Town has provided for an Arena and Community Centre over the 10 year forecast period. The gross capital cost of this provision is $32,000,000 with a post period benefit of $27,338,125 and a benefit to existing development of $3,200,000. Therefore, the balance before the mandatory 10% deduction is $1,461,875. The net growth capital cost after the mandatory 10% deduction is $1,315,687 and has been included in the development charge. While indoor recreation service usage is predominately residential-based, there is some use of the facility by non-residential users. To acknowledge this use the growth-related capital costs have been allocated 95% residential and 5% non-residential. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

53 Parks The Town currently has 56 hectares of parkland within its jurisdiction. The parkland consists of various sized neighbourhood and community parks. The Town has sustained the current level of service over the historic 10-year period ( ), with an average of 3.5 acres of parkland per 1,000 population. Including parkland and parkland amenities (e.g. ball diamonds, playground equipment, soccer fields, etc.), the level of service provided is approximately $1,138, per capita. When applied over the forecast period, this average level of service translates into a DC-eligible amount of $3,780,581. Based on the projected growth over the 10-year forecast period, the Town has identified $6,848,265 in future growth capital costs for parkland development. These projects include additional parkland development, playground structures, splash pads, skateboard parks and other amenities. Of the total cost, deductions have been made to reflect a post period benefit of $1,874,940, benefit to existing development including the DC reserve fund balance of $568,203 equal to $1,059,980 and grant funding and contributions from local groups equal to $142,765. The net growth capital cost after the mandatory 10% deduction and the allocation of reserve balance is $3,393,522. As the predominant users of parks tend to be residents of the Town, the forecast growth-related costs have been allocated 95% to residential and 5% to non-residential.

55 Library Services The Town provides two library facilities which total 9,385 sq.ft in size. Over the past ten years, the average level of service was 0.61 sq. ft. of space per capita or an investment of $158 per capita. Based on this service standard, the Town would be eligible to collect approximately $525,304 from DC s for library facility space (over the ten year period). Provisions for additional library space as well as a provision for furniture and equipment for the space have been identified for inclusion in the DC for library facilities. The gross cost of these projects is $1,365,000, with a post period benefit of $372,519 and an existing benefit of $467,177 (including the DC Library Reserve Fund balance of $125,927 at December 31, 2012). For library facilities, $472,774 has been included in the DC calculation based on the 10 year growth projections (after the 10% deduction). The Town has an inventory of library collection of 58,001 items. The collection includes various items such as books, periodicals, audio visual materials and electronic, all of which have a total value of approximately $2,441,000. Over the past ten years, the average level of service was 3.8 collection items per capita or an investment of $160 per capital. Based on this service standard, the Town would be eligible to collect approximately $530,807 form Dc s for library collection items (over the ten year period). Base on the projected growth over the 10-year forecast period ( ), provisions for additional collection items have been identified for future capital. The gross capital cost for these items amounts to $558,000 with an existing development benefit amount of $27,900. The net growth related cost to be included in the DC is $477,090 (after the mandatory 10% deduction). While library usage is predominately residential-based, there is some use of the facility by nonresidential users, for the purpose of research. To acknowledge this use the growth-related capital costs have been allocated %95 residential and 5% non-residential. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

58 Service Levels and 20 - Year Capital Costs for Pelham s DC Calculation This section evaluates the development-related capital requirements for municipal wide services with twenty-year capital costs Fire Services Pelham currently operates its fire services from 25,748 sq.ft of facility space, providing for a per capita average level of service of 1.28 sq. ft. of building space per capita or $297 per capita. This level of service provides the Town with a maximum DC-eligible amount for recovery over the forecast period of $2,215,405. The replacement of Station #3 and an extra bay at Station #1 have been identified for inclusion in the DC for fire facilities. The total capital cost of these projects including debenture principal and discounted interest for Station #2 amounts to $2,041,278. Deductions to this amount total $1,018,222 including the December 31, 2012 DC reserve fund balance. Therefore the net growth capital cost to be included in the development charge is $1,022,945. The fire department has a current inventory of 13 vehicles. The total DC eligible amount calculated for fire vehicles over the forecast period is $1,892,542, based on a standard of $254 per capita. The need for an additional Fire Chief vehicle and provision for a new vehicle has been identified over the forecast period. The net capital cost of $165,000 is considered growth related and this amount has been included in the development charge. Fire department staff levels stayed constant in recent years with 86 firefighters. Each firefighter is fully equipped. The Town currently has a calculated average level of service for the historic 10-year period of $49 per capita, providing for a DC-eligible amount over the forecast period of approximately $367,206 for small equipment and gear. Based on growth-related needs the Town has identified a provision for new equipment at a total cost of $50,000 which has been included in the development charge. These costs are shared between residential and non-residential based on a development land area, resulting in 83% being allocated to residential development and 17% being allocated to non-residential development.

62 Revised April 28, Roads and Related Pelham owns and maintains 238 km of roads throughout the town. This provides an average level of investment of $10,287 per capita, resulting in a DC eligible recovery amount of approximately $76.8 million over the 20-year forecast period. The Town has identified a number of road projects and sidewalk infrastructure required to service growth over the forecast period, with a total capital cost of $26,171,885. After allocations for existing benefit of $11,015,555 and the reserve fund balance of $12,900, the net growth capital cost included in development charge is $15,156,330. The Public Works Department has a variety of vehicles and major equipment totalling $3.6 million. This inventory provides for a per capita standard of $181. Over the forecast period, the DC-eligible amount for vehicles and equipment is $1,351,176. Additional vehicle and equipment items have been identified for the forecast period amounting to $994,300 of which $1,965 has been allocated to existing benefit. The growth related portion of these items is $992,335 which has been included in the DC calculation. The Town operates their Public Works service out of a number of facilities. The facilities provide 14,968 sq.ft. of building area, providing for a per capita average level of service of 0.92 sq.ft./capita or $124/capita. This level of service provides the Town with a maximum DC-eligible amount for recovery over the 20 year forecast period of $925,667. A provision for new Public Works space has been identified over the forecast period, amounting to $500,000 all of which has been allocated to growth and therefore included in the DC calculation. The residential/non-residential capital cost allocation for roads and related services would be based on an 83%/17% split based on the incremental growth in population to employment, for the 20 year forecast period.

67 Revised March 5, Service Levels and Urban Build out Capital Costs for Pelham s DC Calculation 5-19 This section evaluates the development-related capital requirements for water and wastewater services over the urban build out planning period Wastewater Services The capital program for sanitary sewers includes both the extension of services to new development and the enlargement of existing sewers to increase capacity and accommodate development over the buildout period. Based on the identified needs, the total gross cost of $5,670,846 is grouped by geographic benefiting area (i.e. Fonthill or Fenwick) and has been included in the DC listing for wastewater service. Of this amount a reserve adjustment of $149,419 has been made to reflect the Dec 31, 2012 balance resulting in net growth related costs of $5,521,427 for inclusion in the DC calculation. The allocation between residential and no-residential growth is calculated based on design flows over the build out urban forecast period. This split results in an 88% allocation to residential and 12% allocation to non-residential Water Services The Town has provided capital projects for water distribution including watermain looping in both Fenwick and Fonthill and an expansion of the Fonthill water network. The total gross cost of these projects along with outstanding debt and discounted interest is $4,352,417. A reduction of $205,894 to recognize the December 31, 2012 reserve fund balance has also been made. Therefore, the amount attributable to growth over the urban forecast period to be included in the DC calculation is $4,146,523. Similar to wastewater, the growth related costs have been allocated between residential and non-residential development based on design flows over the build out urban forecast period. The allocation between residential and no-residential growth is calculated based on design flows over the build out urban forecast period. This split results in an 88% allocation to residential and 12% allocation to non-residential. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report - addendum.docx

73 DEVELOPMENT CHARGE CALCULATION Tables 6-1 and 6-1a calculate the proposed development charges to be imposed for infrastructure services in Fenwick and Fonthill based upon an urban build-out (water and wastewater) horizon. Table 6-2 calculates the proposed uniform development charge to be imposed on anticipated development in the Town for municipal-wide services over a 20-year planning horizon. Table 6-3 calculates the proposed uniform development charge to be imposed on anticipated development in the Town for municipal-wide services over a 10-year planning horizon. The calculation for residential development is generated on a per capita basis, and is based upon four forms of housing types (Single and Semi-detached, Apartments 2+ bedrooms, Apartments bachelor and 1 bedroom, and all Other Dwellings). The non-residential development charge has been calculated on a per sq.ft. of gross floor area basis for all types of non-residential development (commercial and institutional). The DC eligible costs for each service component were developed in Chapter 5 for all municipal services, based on their proposed capital programs. For the residential calculations, the total cost is divided by the gross (new resident) population to determine the per capita amount. The eligible DC cost calculations set out in Chapter 5 are based on the net anticipated population increase (the forecast new unit population less the anticipated decline in existing units). The cost per capita is then multiplied by the average occupancy of the new units (Appendix A, Schedules 4a, 4b, and 5) to calculate the charge in Tables 6-1a, 6-1b, 6-2 and 6-3. With respect to non-residential development, the total costs in the uniform charge allocated to non-residential development (based on need for service) have been divided by the anticipated development over the planning period to calculate a cost per sq.ft. of gross floor area. Table 6-4 summarizes the total development charge that is applicable and Table 6-5 summarizes the gross capital expenditures and sources of revenue for works to be undertaken during the 5-year life of the by-law. For Council s consideration, a combined charge was calculated for the Fenwick/Fonthill water and wastewater. These calculations are provided in Table 6-6 and will be considered further by Council.

82

83 7. DEVELOPMENT CHARGE POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS AND DEVELOPMENT CHARGE BY-LAW RULES Introduction Requirements of the DCA s.s.5(1)9 states that rules must be developed:... to determine if a development charge is payable in any particular case and to determine the amount of the charge, subject to the limitations set out in subsection 6. Paragraph 10 of the section goes on to state that the rules may provide for exemptions, phasing in and/or indexing of development charges. s.s.5(6) establishes the following restrictions on the rules: the total of all development charges that would be imposed on anticipated development must not exceed the capital costs determined under 5(1) 2-8 for all services involved. if the rules expressly identify a type of development, they must not provide for it to pay development charges that exceed the capital costs that arise from the increase in the need for service for that type of development. However, this requirement does not relate to any particular development. if the rules provide for a type of development to have a lower development charge than is allowed, the rules for determining development charges may not provide for any resulting shortfall to be made up via other development. With respect to the rules, Section 6 states that a DC by-law must expressly address the matters referred to above re s.s.5(1) para. 9 and 10, as well as how the rules apply to the redevelopment of land. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

84 Development Charge By-law Structure It is recommended that: The Town uses a uniform town-wide development charge calculation for all municipal services, except water and sanitary sewer. Water and sanitary sewer services be imposed on the Fenwick and Fonthill specific areas of the Town. Council to consider whether these services should be calculated and imposed on an individual area or whether a combined service charge should be considered. 7.3 Development Charge By-law Rules The following subsections set out the recommended rules governing the calculation, payment and collection of development charges in accordance with Section 6 of the Development Charges Act, It is recommended that: Payment in any Particular Case In accordance with the Development Charges Act, 1997, s.2(2), a development charge be calculated, payable and collected where the development requires one or more of the following: a) the passing of a zoning by-law or of an amendment to a zoning by-law under section 34 of the Planning Act; b) the approval of a minor variance under Section 45 of the Planning Act; c) a conveyance of land to which a by-law passed under section 50(7) of the Planning Act applies; d) the approval of a plan of subdivision under Section 51 of the Planning Act; e) a consent under Section 53 of the Planning Act; f) the approval of a description under section 50 of the Condominium Act; or g) the issuing of a building permit under the Building Code Act in relation to a building or structure Determination of the Amount of the Charge The following conventions be adopted: 1) Costs allocated to residential uses will be assigned to different types of residential units based on the average occupancy for each housing type constructed during the previous decade. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

85 2) Costs are allocated to residential uses (as opposed to non-residential uses) based upon a number of conventions, as may be suited to each municipal circumstance, e.g. 7-3 For Administration, the costs have been based on an employment vs. population growth ratio (82%/18% respectively).

89 8. BY-LAW IMPLEMENTATION Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

90

91 BY-LAW IMPLEMENTATION 8.1 Public Consultation Process Introduction This chapter addresses the mandatory, formal public consultation process (Section 8.1.2), as well as the optional, informal consultation process (Section 8.1.3). The latter is designed to seek the co-operation and involvement of those involved, in order to produce the most suitable policy. Section addresses the anticipated impact of the development charge on development, from a generic viewpoint Public Meeting of Council Section 12 of the DCA, 1997 indicates that before passing a development charge by-law, Council must hold at least one public meeting, giving at least 20 clear days notice thereof, in accordance with the Regulation. Council must also ensure that the proposed by-law and background report are made available to the public at least two weeks prior to the (first) meeting. Any person who attends such a meeting may make representations related to the proposed bylaw. If a proposed by-law is changed following such a meeting, the Council must determine whether a further meeting (under this section) is necessary (i.e. if the proposed by-law which is proposed for adoption has been changed in any respect, the Council should formally consider whether an additional public meeting is required, incorporating this determination as part of the final by-law or associated resolution. It is noted that Council s decision, once made, is final and not subject to review by a Court or the OMB) Other Consultation Activity There are three broad groupings of the public who are generally the most concerned with municipal development charge policy: 1. The residential development community, consisting of land developers and builders, who are typically responsible for generating the majority of the development charge revenues. Others, such as realtors, are directly impacted by development charge policy. They are therefore potentially interested in all aspects of the charge, particularly the quantum by unit type, projects to be funded by the DC and the timing thereof, and Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

92 municipal policy with respect to development agreements, DC credits and front-ending requirements The second public grouping embraces the public at large and includes taxpayer coalition groups and others interested in public policy (e.g. in encouraging a higher nonautomobile modal split). 3. The third grouping is the industrial/commercial/institutional development sector, consisting of land developers and major owners or organizations with significant construction plans, such as hotels, entertainment complexes, shopping centres, offices, industrial buildings and institutions. Also involved are organizations such as Industry Associations, the Chamber of Commerce, the Board of Trade and the Economic Development Agencies, who are all potentially interested in municipal development charge policy. Their primary concern is frequently with the quantum of the charge, gross floor area exclusions such as basement, mechanical or indoor parking areas, or exemptions and phase-in or capping provisions in order to moderate the impact. 8.2 Anticipated Impact of the Charge on Development The establishment of sound development charge policy often requires the achievement of an acceptable balance between two competing realities. The first is that high non-residential development charges can, to some degree, represent a barrier to increased economic activity and sustained industrial/commercial growth, particularly for capital intensive uses. Also, in many cases, increased residential development charges can ultimately be expected to be recovered via higher housing prices and can impact project feasibility in some cases (e.g. rental apartments). On the other hand, development charges or other municipal capital funding sources need to be obtained in order to help ensure that the necessary infrastructure and amenities are installed. The timely installation of such works is a key initiative in providing adequate service levels and in facilitating strong economic growth, investment and wealth generation. 8.3 Implementation Requirements Introduction Once the Town has calculated the charge, prepared the complete Background Study, carried out the public process and passed a new by-law, the emphasis shifts to implementation matters. These include notices, potential appeals and complaints, credits, front-ending agreements, subdivision agreement conditions and finally the collection of revenues and funding of projects. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

93 8-3 The sections which follow, overview requirements in each case: Notice of Passage In accordance with s.13 of the DCA, when a DC by-law is passed, the municipal clerk shall give written notice of the passing and of the last day for appealing the by-law (the day that is 40 days after the day it was passed). Such notice must be given not later than 20 days after the day the by-law is passed (i.e. as of the day of newspaper publication or the mailing of the notice). Section 10 of O.Reg. 82/98 further defines the notice requirements which are summarized as follows: Notice may be given by publication in a newspaper which is (in the Clerk s opinion) of sufficient circulation to give the public reasonable notice, or by personal service, fax or mail to every owner of land in the area to which the by-law relates; s.s.10(4) lists the persons/organizations who must be given notice; and s.s.10(5) lists the eight items which the notice must cover By-law Pamphlet In addition to the notice information, the Town must prepare a pamphlet explaining each development charge by-law in force, setting out: a description of the general purpose of the development charges; the rules for determining if a charge is payable in a particular case and for determining the amount of the charge; the services to which the development charges relate; and a general description of the general purpose of the Treasurer s statement and where it may be received by the public. Where a by-law is not appealed to the OMB, the pamphlet must be readied within 60 days after the by-law comes into force. Later dates apply to appealed by-laws. The Town must give one copy of the most recent pamphlet without charge, to any person who requests one. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

94 Appeals Sections of the DCA, 1997 set out requirements relative to making and processing of a DC by-law appeal and OMB Hearing in response to an appeal. Any person or organization may appeal a DC by-law to the OMB by filing with the municipal clerk a notice of appeal, setting out the objection to the by-law and the reasons supporting the objection. This must be done by the last day for appealing the by-law, which is 40 days after the by-law is passed. The Town is carrying out a public consultation process, in order to address the issues which come forward as part of that process, thereby avoiding or reducing the need for an appeal to be made Complaints A person required to pay a development charge, or his agent, may complain to Municipal Council imposing the charge that: the amount of the charge was incorrectly determined; the credit to be used against the development charge was incorrectly determined; or there was an error in the application of the development charge. Sections of the DCA, 1997 set out the requirements that exist, including the fact that a complaint may not be made later than 90 days after a DC (or any part of it) is payable. A complainant may appeal the decision of Municipal Council to the OMB Credits Sections of the DCA, 1997 set out a number of credit requirements, which apply where a Town agrees to allow a person to perform work in the future that relates to a service in the DC by-law. These credits would be used to reduce the amount of development charges to be paid. The value of the credit is limited to the reasonable cost of the work which does not exceed the average level of service. The credit applies only to the service to which the work relates, unless the Town agrees to expand the credit to other services for which a development charge is payable Front-Ending Agreements The Town and one or more landowners may enter into a front-ending agreement which provides for the costs of a project which will benefit an area in the Town to which the DC by-law applies. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. H:\Pelham\DC 2013\Report\2013 Draft DC Report.docx

95 Such an agreement can provide for the costs to be borne by one or more parties to the agreement who are, in turn, reimbursed in future, by persons who develop land defined in the agreement. 8-5 Part III of the DCA, 1997 (Sections 44-58) addresses front-ending agreements and removes some of the obstacles to their use which were contained in the DCA, Accordingly, the municipality assesses whether this mechanism is appropriate for its use, as part of funding projects prior to Municipal funds being available Severance and Subdivision Agreement Conditions Section 59 of the DCA, 1997 prevents a municipality from imposing directly or indirectly, a charge related to development or a requirement to construct a service related to development, by way of a condition or agreement under s.51 or s.53 of the Planning Act, except for: local services, related to a plan of subdivision or within the area to which the plan relates, to be installed or paid for by the owner as a condition of approval under section 51 of the Planning Act; and local services to be installed or paid for by the owner as a condition of approval under Section 53 of the Planning Act. It is also noted that s.s.59(4) of the DCA, 1997 requires that the municipal approval authority for a draft plan of subdivision under s.s.51(31) of the Planning Act, use its power to impose conditions to ensure that the first purchaser of newly subdivided land is informed of all the development charges related to the development, at the time the land is transferred. In this regard, if the municipality in question is a commenting agency, in order to comply with subsection 59(4) of the Development Charges Act, 1997 it would need to provide to the approval authority, information regarding the applicable municipal development charges related to the site. If the municipality is an approval authority for the purposes of section 51 of the Planning Act, it would be responsible to ensure that it collects information from all entities which can impose a development charge. The most effective way to ensure that purchasers are aware of this condition would be to require it as a provision in a registered subdivision agreement, so that any purchaser of the property would be aware of the charges at the time the title was searched prior to closing a transaction conveying the lands.

130

131 C-1 APPENDIX C - COST EXAMINATION LONG TERM CAPITAL AND OPERATING TOWN OF PELHAM ANNUAL CAPITAL AND OPERATING COST IMPACT As a requirement of the Development Charges Act, 1997 under subsection 10(2)(c), an analysis must be undertaken to assess the long term capital and operating cost impacts for the capital infrastructure projects identified within the development charge. As part of this analysis, it was deemed necessary to isolate the incremental operating expenditures directly associated with these capital projects, factor in cost saving attributable to economies of scale or cost sharing where applicable, and prorate the cost on a per unit basis (i.e. sq.ft. of building space, per vehicle, etc.). This was undertaken through a review of the Municipality s approved 2011 Financial Information Return (FIR). In addition to the operational impacts, over time the initial capital projects will require replacement. This replacement of capital is often referred to as life cycle cost. By definition, life cycle costs are all the costs which are incurred during the life of a physical asset, from the time its acquisition is first considered, to the time it is taken out of service for disposal or redeployment. The method selected for life cycle costing is the sinking fund method which provides that money will be contributed annually and invested, so that those funds will grow over time to equal the amount required for future replacement. The following factors were utilized to calculate the annual replacement cost of the capital projects (annual contribution = factor X capital asset cost) and are based on an annual growth rate of 2% (net of inflation) over the average useful life of the asset: LIFE CYCLE COST FACTORS ASSET AVERAGE USEFUL FACTOR LIFE Facilities, Buildings Roads Rolling Stock & Vehicles Fire Vehicles Firefighter Equipment and Gear Water and Wastewater Parks Related Table C-1 depicts the annual operating impact resulting from the proposed gross capital projects at the time they are all in place. It is important to note that, while municipal program expenditures will increase with growth in population, the costs associated with the new infrastructure (i.e. facilities) would be delayed until the time these works are in place.

134

135 D-1 APPENDIX D - FUND POLICY DEVELOPMENT CHARGE RESERVE D.1 Legislative Requirements The DCA, 1997 requires development charge collections (and associated interest) to be placed in separate reserve funds. Sections 33 through 36 of the Act provide the following regarding reserve fund establishment and use: a municipality shall establish a reserve fund for each service to which the DC by-law relates; s.7(1), however, allows services to be grouped into categories of services for reserve fund (and credit) purposes, although only 100% eligible and 90% eligible services may be combined (minimum of two reserve funds); the Town shall pay each development charge it collects into a reserve fund or funds to which the charge relates; the money in a reserve fund shall be spent only for the capital costs determined through the legislated calculation process (as per s.5(1) 2-8); money may be borrowed from the fund but must be paid back with interest (O.Reg. 82/98, s.11(1) defines this as Bank of Canada rate either on the day the by-law comes into force or, if specified in the by-law, the first business day of each quarter); and DC reserve funds may not be consolidated with other municipal reserve funds for investment purposes (s.37). Annually, the Treasurer of the municipality is required to provide Council with a financial statement related to the DC by-law(s) and reserve funds. This statement must also be forwarded to the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing within 60 days of the statement being filed with Council.
