REPORT NO.: PSD-101-11 PAGE 2
1. BACKGROUND
1.1 Section 69 of the Planning Act allows the Municipality to pass a By-law to set out
fees for development applications to offset the "anticipated costs" to the
Municipality for processing applications. The current Fee By-law was adopted in
2010. This report recommends an across the board annual Planning Application
Fee increase as well as introducing fees for minor variances to the Sign By-law
and a fee for re-activating dormant applications.
2. REVISIONS TO FEES AND NEW FEES
2.1 As noted above, the Fee Schedule for development applications is intended to
offset the "anticipated costs" to the Municipality for processing applications. The
Municipality does not have a collective agreement in place for the coming years
that can be used as a benchmark for the fee adjustment. Staff reviewed a
number of forecasts to provide an increase reflective of expected wage increases
over the coming years. The forecasts appear to range from a low of 2.3% to a
high of 3.1%. Some forecasts also noted that Ontario and the GTA would be
lower than the national average while another suggested that the health care and
public sector would see the lowest increases.
In consideration of the above staff recommend the following changes to the
Application Fees Costs related to Planning Act applications for the next three
years:
2.0% increase in 2012;
2.5% increase in 2013; and
3.0 % increase in 2014
Should wages or other factors dramatically differ over that period, staff can report
back to Council with an update and further adjustments. Furthermore, staff will be
undertaking a major fees review during this period.
2.2 Sign Variances
As identified in report PSD-103-11 staff recommends an amendment to the Sign
By-law to allow for minor variances to the Sign By-law. This will provide
opportunity for a simpler process for minor deviations from the Council approved
By-law. In conjunction with this revision to process a fee for minor variances is
proposed at the same rate as the fee for minor variance to the Zoning By-law.
The proposed fee will be $461 plus HST. This is less than half of the fee for a
Sign By-law amendment $1033 plus HST in 2012.
2.3 Dormant or Inactive Applications
On occasion when applications are submitted and circulated, applicants do not
respond to agency or municipal comments and requests for revisions or
supporting documentation in a timely manner. There may be several reasons for
the delay and at times months or years can pass before an applicant decides to
proceed with an application. Staff typically provide follow-up/reminder letters
advising that progress needs to be made or the file should be denied and closed.
REPORT NO.: PSD-101-11 PAGE 3
Applicants are reluctant to close an application due to the time and money
invested in the initial submission.
However, revisions to dormant applications require significant staff time. There
may need to be a significant review undertaken to consider policy changes that
have occurred since the initial submission. Often times the revisions trigger a
new public meeting as well.
Although presently the Fee By-law has appropriate fees for revisions to proposed
plan of subdivision applications, and a fee for additional public meetings, it does
not contain a fee for dormant applications. It is suggested that such a fee be
introduced. This fee will be applied to applications other than proposed plans of
subdivision and in situations where no additional public meeting is required. The
fee shall be 25% of the original application fee to a maximum of$1000.
2.4 Administration Fee
All applications are required to be submitted with drawings folded to
approximately 8.5 x 11 to accommodate circulation to agencies and ease of filing.
Application forms clearly contain this requirement and applicants and their agents
are reminded of the requirement in the preconsultation meeting. Although
generally this requirement is complied with it is recommended that a new fee be
introduced for staff to fold plans of$5.00 per plan. This task is not difficult,
however depending on the submission can involve over a hundred sheets of
paper which is very time consuming. Should Council adopt this new fee, when a
submission is received which is not folded the applicant/agent will be given the
option to fold the plans or pay the fee to have staff fold the plans.
3. CONCURRENCE - Not applicable
4. CONCLUSION
4.1 It is respectfully recommended that Fee By-law, as contained in the By-law
Amendment attached hereto, being Attachment 1 to Report PSD-101-11, be
approved.
