Page 9 Audit Results Report for The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington 4 Executive Summary • Risks and Audit Execution • Appendices Risks and Audit Execution Revenue Recognition RISK LEVEL Significant Risks: Canadian GAAS includes the presumption of a fraud risk involving improper revenue recognition. We have pinpointed this fraud risk to the following revenue streams • Developer contributions and development charges (occurrence and accuracy) and the corresponding Deferred Revenue (existence, rights and obligations, completeness, and valuation and allocation). Audit Response: • Certain revenue streams are presumed areas of significant audit risk. We tested the design and implementation of controls in significant revenue streams and performed substantive analytic procedures and/or detailed testing in these areas (including testing of manual journal entries), and • We performed substantive testing to determine if restricted contributions (i.e. development and other charges), and government transfers/grants have been recognized appropriately (revenue vs. deferred revenue). Audit Results: • We obtained sufficient audit evidence to conclude that there were no material misstatements. • Refer to Appendix 2 for uncorrected misstatements noted. These relate to 2024 amounts which have been adjusted in 2025. © Deloitte LLP and affiliated entities. Page 10 Audit Results Report for The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Executive Summary • Risks and Audit Execution • Appendices Risks and Audit Execution (cont'd) Management Override of Controls RISK LEVEL Significant Risk: Management override of controls is a presumed area of risk in a financial statement audit due to management's ability to override controls that otherwise appear to be operating effectively. Audit Response: • Tested the appropriateness of journal entries recorded in the general ledger and other adjustments made in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, • Obtained an understanding of the business rationale for significant transactions that we became aware of that were outside of the normal course of business, or that otherwise appeared to be unusual given our understanding of the Municipality and its environment, • Reviewed accounting estimates for bias and evaluated whether the circumstances producing the bias, if any, represented a risk of material misstatement, • Experienced Deloitte personnel was assigned to the testing and review of journal entries and areas of estimates, • Held fraud discussions with management, and • Professional skepticism was maintained throughout the audit Audit Results: • We obtained sufficient audit evidence to conclude that there was no evidence of management override of controls. • With respect to journal entries, we used our analytics tools to interrogate the general ledger to identify entries exhibiting the following characteristics of interest for further testing: unrelated accounts, large debit and credit entries to income at year-end, and entries containing certain key words of interest. Innovation tools used: • Deloitte Omnia • Omnia data © Deloitte LLP and affiliated entities. Page 11 Audit Results Report for The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington • Executive Summary • Risks and Audit Execution • Appendices Risks and Audit Execution (cont'd) Management judgments and accounting estimates RISK LEVEL Higher Risk: Management judgments and accounting estimates may be subject to estimation uncertainty. The following are examples of significant judgments and estimates: • Fair value of investments • Employee future benefits liabilities • Fair value of contributed tangible capital assets • Estimates relating to the useful lives of tangible capital assets Audit Response: • Obtained an understanding on how management makes the accounting estimates and the underlying data on which those estimates are based • Reviewed support for significant assumptions made by management (i.e. third -party source data, estimation models used by management, etc.) • Evaluated whether the significant assumptions made by management provide a reasonable basis for the accounting estimate, whether and how management considered alternative assumptions or outcomes, and why they have rejected them, • Reviewed transactions and events occurring subsequent to year-end to determine the reasonableness of estimates made at year-end, and • Reviewed the consistency of assumptions made by management. Audit Results: We obtained sufficient audit evidence to conclude that there were no material misstatements. © Deloitte LLP and affiliated entities. Page 12 Audit Results Report for The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington • Executive Summary • Risks and Audit Execution • Appendices Risks and Audit Execution (cont'd) Opening balances RISK LEVEL Higher Risk: Opening balances may be misstated or not properly carried forward from the prior year, leading to potential misstatements in the current year's financial statements. This risk arises if prior year's errors are not detected, if adjustments are not properly recorded, or if there are changes in accounting policies or estimates that are not appropriately reflected in current year's opening balances. Audit Response: • Obtained and reviewed the prior year's audited financial statements, • Communicated with predecessor auditor, which included a detailed review of their working papers prepared as part of their prior year's audit, • Reconciled opening balances to prior year's closing balances, • Performed analytical review procedures on opening balances, especially for accounts that are significant or where there is a risk of material misstatement. Audit Results: We obtained sufficient audit evidence to conclude that there were no material misstatements. © Deloitte LLP and affiliated entities.

New Business 8.1 Request for Provincial Support, Funding, and Coordinated Strategies to Combat Tick -Borne Diseases (Councillor Elhajjeh) Resolution # GG-115-26 Moved by Councillor Elhajjeh Seconded by Mayor Foster Whereas the prevalence of ticks, including those known to carry Lyme disease, and other Vector borne diseases have increased across many parts of Ontario; (Lyme disease is now the most common vector -borne disease in the province. In 2025 alone, there were 2,930 reported cases in Ontario, a sharp rise from the 1,865 cases in 2024); Whereas residents have expressed growing concerns about public health risks associated with tick exposure in parks, trails, and residential areas; Whereas municipalities have limited jurisdiction and resources to effectively manage tick populations at a broad ecological scale; Whereas the Government of Ontario is responsible for public health policy, environmental management, and vector -borne disease prevention; Now therefore be it resolved: 7 Page 46 General Government Committee Minutes June 1, 2026 That Council for the Municipality of Clarington formally requests that the Government of Ontario investigate and implement measures to reduce tick populations and mitigate associated public health risks; That such measures may include safe and effective tick control strategies, public education campaigns, and coordinated regional approaches; That the Province consider increased funding and support for local public health units to address tick -borne disease prevention; and That a copy of this motion be sent to the Minister of Health, Public Health Ontario, the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks, local MPP(s), Local MP(s), public health units, and organizations, and the Association of Municipalities of Ontario.

Carried 8 Page 47 General Government Committee Minutes June 1, 2026 Resolution # GG-118-26 Moved by Councillor Rang Seconded by Councillor Anderson Whereas the Government of Ontario has recently advanced a policy direction encouraging a full-time, five -days -per -week return to the office for public sector employees; And Whereas the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated that many public sector roles can be performed effectively through remote and hybrid work arrangements without compromising service delivery, accountability, or productivity; And Whereas municipalities across Ontario have successfully implemented hybrid work models that maintain high levels of service while improving employee satisfaction, recruitment, and retention; And Whereas a rigid, five-day in -office requirement may undermine workforce competitiveness, particularly in attracting younger professionals and specialized talent who increasingly expect flexible work arrangements; And Whereas the Province's stated aim of adding to downtown Toronto's economy also applies to Durham communities that would benefit from workers spending their dollars closer to home; And Whereas hybrid work models contribute to measurable environmental benefits, including: Reduced greenhouse gas emissions from decreased commuting; Lower traffic congestion on the 401 and in downtown Toronto, particularly; Reduced demand on urban infrastructure and parking systems; And Whereas hybrid work arrangements support improved quality of life outcomes, including: Increased work -life balance for employees; Reduced commuting time and costs; Greater inclusion for individuals with caregiving responsibilities or accessibility needs; And Whereas municipalities are significant employers and leaders in advancing sustainable, modern workplace practices that align with climate action goals and community well-being; Therefore be it resolved that: Council formally expresses its support for maintaining flexible hybrid work models within the municipal public sector, where operationally feasible; 9 Page 48 General Government Committee Minutes June 1, 2026 Council urges the Province of Ontario to reconsider a blanket five-day return -to - office approach, and instead adopt a principles -based framework that: Empowers organizations to determine appropriate workplace models; Recognizes the diversity of roles across the public sector; Prioritizes outcomes, service delivery, and employee performance over physical presence; Council affirms that hybrid work arrangements are aligned with municipal climate objectives, including emissions reduction and sustainable transportation strategies; Council supports staff continuing to leverage hybrid work policies that enhance employee well-being, organizational efficiency, and service excellence; That a copy of this motion be forwarded to the Premier of Ontario, the Minister of Labour, the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, local Durham Members of Provincial Parliament, and the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) for consideration and advocacy. Carried 8.4 Reform of the Ontario Land Tribunal to Strengthen Municipal Decision - Making Authority (Councillor Elhajjeh) Resolution # GG-119-26 Moved by Councillor Elhajjeh Seconded by Councillor Rang That in accordance with Section 7.16.5 of the Procedural By-law, a New Business Item, regarding Reform of the Ontario Land Tribunal to Strengthen Municipal Decision -Making Authority, be added to the Agenda. Carried Resolution # GG-120-26 Moved by Councillor Elhajjeh Seconded by Councillor Rang Whereas municipal councils are elected by residents to make decisions affecting their communities; Whereas the Province has empowered municipalities to make decisions on planning matters that are in keeping with provincial policy and legislation; 10 Page 49 General Government Committee Minutes June 1, 2026 Whereas a 2024 performance audit by the Office of the Auditor General of Ontario found that approximately 90% of development proposals appealed to the Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT) in 2023-2024 were allowed to proceed, even where the municipal position was informed by detailed technical studies and public consultation, demonstrating the significant influence the OLT has over development outcomes across Ontario; and Whereas municipalities across Ontario must often spend substantial public funds on legal and planning experts to defend decisions at the OLT, diverting limited municipal resources away from processing development applications and providing community services that detracts from provincial and municipal objectives of providing an increased supply of housing and building vibrant, complete communities. Therefore, Be It Resolved: That Council calls on the Government of Ontario to undertake a comprehensive review of the Ontario Land Tribunal with the objective of restoring appropriate deference to municipal planning decisions that conform to provincially approved Official Plans and policy frameworks; That Council requests legislative amendments to the Planning Act and Ontario Land Tribunal Act to ensure that the OLT gives greater weight to municipal decisions where they are supported by technical evidence, community consultation, and approved municipal planning policies; That Council calls for improved transparency and accountability in Ontario Land Tribunal decision -making, including clearer reasoning when municipal decisions are overturned; That Council supports reforms that address procedural inequities, including measures to reduce the financial burden on municipalities defending their decisions against appeals by well-resourced development interests; and That Council directs staff to forward this resolution to: The Premier of Ontario; The Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing; Local Members of Provincial Parliament; and The Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO).

Presentations / Delegations 4.1 Delegation by Stephen Rae regarding Report FSD-027-26 - Development Charge Reduction Program Stephen Rae was present via electronic means regarding Report FSD-027-26 — Development Charge Reduction Program. S. Rae thanked Council for the opportunity to speak and expressed concerns regarding the use of taxpayer funds. Stephen referenced previous discussions related to Camp 30 and questioned the appropriateness of municipal funding being used to support infrastructure, including Courtice Shores Drive underpass, which provides access to a new proposed residential development. Page 52 Clarington June 12, 2026 Special Council Minutes S. Rae expressed disappointment that taxpayer funds are being directed toward infrastructure associated with private development, noting that such costs should be the responsibility of the developer. Stephen added that funding tools, including development charges and Building Faster Fund monies, ultimately represent taxpayer contributions. S. Rae requested that Council reconsider the funding approach and ensure that associated costs are appropriately allocated to protect the public interest. 5.

The DCRP presents an opportunity to reduce development charges on new homes and get essential housing enabling infrastructure in the ground. Lifelong Developments is supportive of the Municipality of Clarington's proposed DCRP application, however, as currently drafted, it does not include 3,200 units we are proposing on our site and the associated infrastructure. According to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing, applications will be assessed on the: percentage of committed DC rate reduction, the number of homes projected as a result of proposed DC relief, and the municipality's financial contribution. As drafted, Clarington's DCRP application forecasts 1,111 units per year for 2026-2028 and already includes projects that are not reflected in the 2025 DC Background Study. Our site alone can deliver 438 to 1,647 new housing starts next year (exceeding the current forecast), with a total of 3,200 units planned out over the next decade. While largely tapping into existing infrastructure, the Treadstone District would build out the historical Bowmanville downtown, connect the existing district road network, and preserve natural heritage. Including the Treadstone District in Clarington's DCRP application would strengthen the application and advance the construction of thousands of new homes near existing services and businesses.

This letter has been prepared in support of Municipality of Clarington's application to the Development Charge Reduction Program ("the Program"), as outlined in Staff Report FSD-027-26, which was considered under Item 5.1 at the Special Council Meeting held on June 12, 2026 (Appendix B). The subject lands comprise approximately 43.649 hectares and form a significant component of the approved Courtice Waterfront and Energy Park Secondary Plan (the "Secondary Plan") (Appendix C). The subject lands are generally bounded by the CN Railway corridor to the north, Darlington Provincial Park to the west, Lake Ontario to the south, and Tooley Creek to the east. The Secondary Plan was considered by the Municipality of Clarington's Planning and Development Committee on January 19, 2026, and was subsequently approved by Council on February 23, 2026. Throughout the Secondary Plan process, the Owners and their consulting team worked collaboratively with Municipal staff to establish the preliminary transportation infrastructure and servicing framework necessary to support the future development of the Secondary Plan area. The subject lands are well positioned to contribute to the Municipality's housing objectives, with approvals now in place to facilitate the development of approximately 2,604 residential units. The implementing Zoning By-law was approved by Council on April 20, 2026, positioning the lands to proceed toward draft plan approval and future development. It is our understanding that, under the Program, the Province and Federal Government would fund up to 90% of eligible growth -related infrastructure projects, provided the Municipality commits to reducing development charges by 30% to 50% for a minimum of three years. Staff Report FSD-027-26 identifies approximately $55.9 million in transportation and servicing infrastructure projects required to support future growth in Clarington. It is also our understanding that Regional Council has authorized the submission of an application to the Federal — Provincial Development Charges Reduction Program prior to June 19, 2026. The identified priority projects include the Courtice Waterfront Underpass Modification (the "Project"), which is adjacent to the Secondary Plan Area, and is a critical infrastructure project necessary to facilitate access to municipal parkland and development of the subject lands. On behalf of the Owners, we support the inclusion of the projects in the Municipality's submission to the Program, which is expected to be made on June 19, 2026.

Report To: Special Council Date of Meeting: June 12, 2026 Report Number: FSD-027-26 Submitted By: Trevor Pinn, Deputy CAO/Treasurer, Finance and Technology Reviewed By: Mary -Anne Dempster, CAO By-law Number: File Number: Resolution Number: Report Subject: Development Charge Reduction Program Recommendations: 1. That Report FSD-027-26, and any related delegations or communication items, be received; 2. That Staff be directed to submit an application with project costs of at least $50 million and a commitment to reduce development charges by 50% and provide 10% funding from the Municipality to the Development Charges Reduction Program; and 3. That all interested parties listed in Report FSD-027-26, be advised of Council's decision. Page 57 Municipality of Clarington Page 2 Report FSD-027-26 Report Overview The Province, the Government of Canada and the Municipality of Clarington have all recognized the importance of facilitating housing starts to address housing need, affordability as well as an increasing number of unhoused individuals within our communities. The Province and the Government of Canada will be contributing up to 90 per cent of eligible project costs to approved infrastructure projects provided that the Municipality puts in at least 10 per cent of project costs and lowers development charges by at least 30 to 50 per cent for at least three years. Staff have reviewed the 2025 Development Charges Background Study to determine eligible projects for which to apply. The goal of the program is to accelerate housing starts and improve housing affordability; a result of participation will be that the Municipality offsets growth related capital costs by a minimum of 10 per cent. Staff are recommending participation in the program, subject to understanding the value of approved projects by the Province, recognizing that there is a cost to the Municipality, however there will be non -property tax benefits to the Municipality such as increased employment, increased housing, reduced homelessness and positive inter governmental relations with the Province and Government of Canada. 1. Background Canada -Ontario Partnership 1.1 On March 30, 2026, the governments of Canada and Ontario announced the Canada - Ontario Partnership to Build (COPB), in support of shared goals including building more homes faster to make housing more affordable, getting shovels in the ground on key transit projects and supporting economic development. 1.2 On June 1, 2026, Canada and Ontario announced the Development Charge Reduction Program (DCRP) to provide $8.8 billion in capital funding to support housing -enabling infrastructure in municipalities that reduce development charges (DCs) by at least 30 per cent to 50 per cent, or more, and maintain those reductions for at least three years. Program Guidelines 1.3 The program is application based with a deadline of June 19, 2026, at 10:00am Eastern Daylight Savings Time. It is expected that Transfer Payment Agreements (TPAs) will be signed by August 15, 2026. 1.4 Projects will be assessed based on the following three criteria: Page 58 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Report FSD-027-26 1.4.1. Percentage of committed DC rate reduction (minimum 30-50 per cent). 1.4.2. Number of homes projected to be built because of the proposed DC relief. 1.4.3. The Municipality's financial contribution (at least ten per cent of project costs) 1.5 The eligible project asset types include: 1.5.1. Potable water 1.5.2. Stormwater 1.5.3. Wastewater 1.5.4. Fixed transportation (maintenance and storage facilities, roads, bridges, tunnels, public transit) 1.5.5. Transportation rolling stock (heavy railcars, commuter rail, public transit) 1.5.6. Public Safety and Emergency Services (fire, police, paramedics) 1.5.7. Community Infrastrastructure (community centres, arenas, libraries, youth centres, senior centres and performing arts centre) 1.6 Of the project asset types included above, only Fixed Transportation (excluding public transit), Public Safety and Emergency Services (fire) and Community Infrastructure would be applicable asset types in Clarington's DC Background study. Stormwater systems are not an asset type that is funded by DCs in Clarington. 1.7 In the guidelines, the Province indicates clearly "...projects that are housing -enabling (i.e. water, wastewater, stormwater, roads and transit) will be prioritized over community -building projects for DCRP funding." 1.8 Projects must be identified in the most recent development charge background study as a project that will begin no later than July 31, 2030, and be complete by October 31, 2035. The Municipality's last study is the 2025 Development Charges Background Study which was approved in December 2025. 1.9 Applicants can submit more than one application and may apply jointly with other municipalities. The Province encourages no more than five eligible projects, and smaller inter -related projects may be bundled into larger project submissions. 1.10 Payments will be provided on a milestone basis at increments of approximately ten per cent of total eligible costs over eight milestones. The first payment will be once the Municipality has taken all actions necessary to authorize the execution of the agreement Page 59 Municipality of Clarington Page 4 Report FSD-027-26 (including the reduction of the DC rates back to March 30, 2026) and final payment will be upon the acceptance of the Final report. 2. Proposed Project Identification 2.1 Based on the program guidelines, Staff have focused their review of proposed projects to roads projects within the 2025 Development Charges Background Study. This is a key asset category that enables housing, versus community -building infrastructure like parks, and best meets the criteria of the program. 2.2 Staff first reviewed the list of roads projects to determine which projects met the timing requirements set out in the program guidelines. Staff then determined if the work would be housing -enabling infrastructure and estimated the number of housing units that would be impacted by the project. 2.3 The following tables outline the priority projects that are being proposed to be included in the application. These projects represent infrastructure needs in areas such as Brookhill, North Newcastle, Marlin Springs, East Bowmanville, South East Courtice, Courtice Transit -Oriented Community, Northglen, Soper Springs, Soper Hills, and Courtice Waterfront.

The identified projects represent over $55.9 million of infrastructure projects that will enable growth throughout the Municipality. 2.5 In addition to the priority projects, there are 28 secondary projects, related to similar areas of the priority projects, in the 2025 DC Background Study worth $35.3 million which may be included once staff are able to review the application and create the required "bundles" for submission. Page 63 Municipality of Clarington Page 8 Report FSD-027-26 3. Financial Considerations Historical Development Charges Collections 3.1 Development Charges collections will vary from year to year based on the timing of development, the types of development, and changes to the DC legislation. 3.2 Over the past five years, which is more reflective of the existing DC regime than prior to 2021, DC collections peaked in 2022 at $11.3mi1 and fell to $3.8mi1 in 2024. The following chart shows the DC collections for 2021 to 2024: DC Collections 2021 to 2025 $12,000,000 $10,000,000 $8,000,000 $6,000,000 $4,000,000 $2,000,000 $- 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 -Historical $10,444,068 $11,307,984 $6,637,804 $3,772,513 $7,040,377 Forecasted Development Charges Collections 3.3 The Municipality forecasts DC collections on an annual basis to create three scenarios, a fourth scenario utilizes the Hemson DC projections which assumed that the Municipality met its housing targets over the next ten years. The last two years, the Municipality, and many other municipalities, missed those housing targets. Page 64 Municipality of Clarington Page 9 Report FSD-027-26 3.4 The following chart shows the projected DC revenue under the four scenarios for the period 2026 to 2034 (the end of the DC study period) Comparison of DC Revenue Projections 2026 to 2034 $80,000,000 $60,000,000 $40,000,000 $20,000,000 .........................• •� $- 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 — • • Low Forecast — • Base Forecast ......High Forecast DC Study 3.5 While this is a forecast, and actual results may differ due to economic factors outside of the control of the Municipality, it would be expected that a 50 per cent reduction in DCs would accelerate the number of units being built somewhere between the "high forecast" and the DC study. Staff have focused their projections on these two models to determine a reasonable estimate for Council's consideration. 3.6 Based on the high forecast, which assumes an average of 363 units per year, the total DC revenue is approximately $13.7 million per year. This means that the projected 50 per cent reduction would be approximately $6.9 million per year in DCs. 3.7 The DC study assumes an average of 1,111 homes between 2026 and 2028, with average DC revenue of $52.1 million per year. If this housing number is met, the projected 50 per cent reduction would be approximately $26.0 million per year. It should be noted that this level of new units would be an outlier based on historical building numbers. 3.8 Staff are estimating, for a conservative number, that the likely units are between the high forecast and the DC study. This would be approximately 740 units per year for three years and approximately $16.5 million in annual foregone DC revenue ($49.3 million over three years). Page 65 Municipality of Clarington Page 10 Report FSD-027-26 3.9 The following table summarizes the projections for 2026 to 2028: 3.10 Projects put forward target a total of $55.9 which is reasonable based on the foregone revenue. To ensure that the Municipality is only responsible for 10 per cent, the projects proposed need to be at least $49.3 million in value. If the grant is less than $49.3 million there is a strong possibility that the Municipality would be required to fund the deficit of the reduced DCs. These projects would support approximately 42,000 new units throughout the Municipality in a variety of secondary plans. Funding the Municipal Portion 3.11 The Municipality is responsible for 10 per cent of the project costs. The municipal portion may be from a variety of sources including tax levy, user fees, and grants (where stacking is allowed). 3.12 Financing the projects would need to be addressed through the 2027 budget process and may include utilizing reserve and reserve funds, short-term borrowing, or long-term borrowing. The determination of financing will be determined once the projects and timing are approved to maximize financial flexibility and reduce financing costs. 3.13 Funding the projects will require approximately $5.0 million based on the application total of $50.0 million. Staff are suggesting that a portion of the real growth assessment Page 66 Municipality of Clarington Page 11 Report FSD-027-26 be used, net of the growth -related operating costs, to fund the Municipal portion. This would operate like a Tax Increment Grant. 3.14 While it is not possible at this time to provide a precise estimate of potential new taxation revenue (as the actual mix of new units is not reasonably estimated), based on a current average residential assessment of approximately $405,000 and 2,211 new units, there will be approximately $12.7 million in local property taxation revenue. 3.15 Growth brings variable costs to the Municipality; however, those costs are not perfectly linear, they occur like a step. Historically, new growth costs have not been segregated in our budget and have gone to the overall levy. By taking the value of the new assessment, reducing it by the increase in growth expenses, and using that portion to repay the 10 per cent, we can repay the reserve funds that were used to fund the Municipal portion of the projects. General Financial Comments 3.16 By receiving the grant funds, projects can proceed knowing that funds are available to cover the costs. This reduces the need for debenture financing, which reduces interest costs and the overall cost of the project. A reduction of debenture financing also provides flexibility to the Municipality on other projects to utilize debt financing, the debt ceiling. 3.17 An added benefit to participation is that by moving projects ahead, if possible, we are mitigating impacts on inflation. This will remove the project from the list of eligible projects in the future, which will mitigate DC charge increases in the next DC study. 3.18 The actual housing starts is dependent on much more than just development charges. Other inflationary pressures, such as material costs, labour capacity, and interest rates all impact the housing market and are beyond the control of the Municipality. 4.

(herein referred to as the "LOG"), the owners of lands within the Soper Hills Secondary Plan Study Area (the "Secondary Plan Area") and has been assisting the LOG throughout the Secondary Plan process. The land ownership within the LOG is illustrated in Appendix A, identifying the participating landowners. This letter has been prepared in support of Municipality of Clarington's application to the Development Charge Reduction Program ("the Program"), as outlined in Staff Report FSD-027-26, which was considered under Item 5.1 at the Special Council Meeting held on June 12, 2026 (Appendix B). The Soper Hills Secondary Plan (the "Secondary Plan") area comprises approximately 193 hectares (477 acres) in the Municipality of Clarington and is located within the Urban Area of Bowmanville. It is bounded by Highway 2 to the south, Lambs Road to the west, the Canadian Pacific Railway ("CPR") corridor to the north, and Providence Road and its unopened road allowance to the east. The Secondary Plan was considered by the Municipality of Clarington's Planning and Development Committee on May 12, 2026, and was subsequently approved by Council on May 25, 2026. Throughout the Secondary Plan process, the LOG and its consulting team have worked collaboratively with Municipal staff regarding preliminary infrastructure and servicing requirements to support the future development of the Secondary Plan area. The lands within the Secondary Plan area are well advanced towards development enabling housing delivery to the area and owners within are preparing applications for development of the lands in accordance with the approved Secondary Plan. It is our understanding that, under the Program, the Province and Federal Government would fund up to 90% of eligible growth -related infrastructure projects, provided the Municipality commits to reducing development charges by 30% to 50% for a minimum of three years. Staff Report FSD-027-26 identifies approximately $55.9 million in transportation and servicing infrastructure projects required to support future growth in Clarington. It is also our understanding that Regional Council has authorized the submission of an application to the Federal — Provincial Development Charges Reduction Program prior to June 19, 2026. The identified priority projects include Concession Street East and Lambs Road, both of which are located within or abutting the Secondary Plan area. On behalf of the LOG, we support the inclusion of these projects in the Municipality's submission to the Program, which is expected to be made on June 19, 2026. In addition, we respectfully request that other eligible collector roads and associated infrastructure and transportation projects that have been identified to support development in the Secondary Plan area be included as priority projects under the Program. This includes other collector roads including the proposed north —south collector road that aVAUGHAN OFFICE 1201 Millway Avenue, Suite 19, Vaughan, Ontario, L4K 5K8 ?9O5,7 8.8080 westonconsulting com Page 1 of 2 TORONTO OFFICE 1268 Berkeley Street, Toronto, Ontario, M5A 2X5 I T. 416.640.9917 1.800.363.3558 F 905.738.9937 WESTON WIVJULI IIvh generally traverses the centre of the Secondary Plan area as shown in Appendix C and the proposed east —west collector roads within the Secondary Plan area (Appendix C).

Report To: Special Council Date of Meeting: June 12, 2026 Report Number: FSD-027-26 Submitted By: Trevor Pinn, Deputy CAO/Treasurer, Finance and Technology Reviewed By: Mary -Anne Dempster, CAO By-law Number: File Number: Resolution Number: Report Subject: Development Charge Reduction Program Recommendations: 1. That Report FSD-027-26, and any related delegations or communication items, be received; 2. That Staff be directed to submit an application with project costs of at least $50 million and a commitment to reduce development charges by 50% and provide 10% funding from the Municipality to the Development Charges Reduction Program; and 3. That all interested parties listed in Report FSD-027-26, be advised of Council's decision. Page 73 Municipality of Clarington Page 2 Report FSD-027-26 Report Overview The Province, the Government of Canada and the Municipality of Clarington have all recognized the importance of facilitating housing starts to address housing need, affordability as well as an increasing number of unhoused individuals within our communities. The Province and the Government of Canada will be contributing up to 90 per cent of eligible project costs to approved infrastructure projects provided that the Municipality puts in at least 10 per cent of project costs and lowers development charges by at least 30 to 50 per cent for at least three years. Staff have reviewed the 2025 Development Charges Background Study to determine eligible projects for which to apply. The goal of the program is to accelerate housing starts and improve housing affordability; a result of participation will be that the Municipality offsets growth related capital costs by a minimum of 10 per cent. Staff are recommending participation in the program, subject to understanding the value of approved projects by the Province, recognizing that there is a cost to the Municipality, however there will be non -property tax benefits to the Municipality such as increased employment, increased housing, reduced homelessness and positive inter governmental relations with the Province and Government of Canada. 1. Background Canada -Ontario Partnership 1.1 On March 30, 2026, the governments of Canada and Ontario announced the Canada - Ontario Partnership to Build (COPB), in support of shared goals including building more homes faster to make housing more affordable, getting shovels in the ground on key transit projects and supporting economic development. 1.2 On June 1, 2026, Canada and Ontario announced the Development Charge Reduction Program (DCRP) to provide $8.8 billion in capital funding to support housing -enabling infrastructure in municipalities that reduce development charges (DCs) by at least 30 per cent to 50 per cent, or more, and maintain those reductions for at least three years. Program Guidelines 1.3 The program is application based with a deadline of June 19, 2026, at 10:00am Eastern Daylight Savings Time. It is expected that Transfer Payment Agreements (TPAs) will be signed by August 15, 2026. 1.4 Projects will be assessed based on the following three criteria: Page 74 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Report FSD-027-26 1.4.1. Percentage of committed DC rate reduction (minimum 30-50 per cent). 1.4.2. Number of homes projected to be built because of the proposed DC relief. 1.4.3. The Municipality's financial contribution (at least ten per cent of project costs) 1.5 The eligible project asset types include: 1.5.1. Potable water 1.5.2. Stormwater 1.5.3. Wastewater 1.5.4. Fixed transportation (maintenance and storage facilities, roads, bridges, tunnels, public transit) 1.5.5. Transportation rolling stock (heavy railcars, commuter rail, public transit) 1.5.6. Public Safety and Emergency Services (fire, police, paramedics) 1.5.7. Community Infrastrastructure (community centres, arenas, libraries, youth centres, senior centres and performing arts centre) 1.6 Of the project asset types included above, only Fixed Transportation (excluding public transit), Public Safety and Emergency Services (fire) and Community Infrastructure would be applicable asset types in Clarington's DC Background study. Stormwater systems are not an asset type that is funded by DCs in Clarington. 1.7 In the guidelines, the Province indicates clearly "...projects that are housing -enabling (i.e. water, wastewater, stormwater, roads and transit) will be prioritized over community -building projects for DCRP funding." 1.8 Projects must be identified in the most recent development charge background study as a project that will begin no later than July 31, 2030, and be complete by October 31, 2035. The Municipality's last study is the 2025 Development Charges Background Study which was approved in December 2025. 1.9 Applicants can submit more than one application and may apply jointly with other municipalities. The Province encourages no more than five eligible projects, and smaller inter -related projects may be bundled into larger project submissions. 1.10 Payments will be provided on a milestone basis at increments of approximately ten per cent of total eligible costs over eight milestones. The first payment will be once the Municipality has taken all actions necessary to authorize the execution of the agreement Page 75 Municipality of Clarington Page 4 Report FSD-027-26 (including the reduction of the DC rates back to March 30, 2026) and final payment will be upon the acceptance of the Final report. 2. Proposed Project Identification 2.1 Based on the program guidelines, Staff have focused their review of proposed projects to roads projects within the 2025 Development Charges Background Study. This is a key asset category that enables housing, versus community -building infrastructure like parks, and best meets the criteria of the program. 2.2 Staff first reviewed the list of roads projects to determine which projects met the timing requirements set out in the program guidelines. Staff then determined if the work would be housing -enabling infrastructure and estimated the number of housing units that would be impacted by the project. 2.3 The following tables outline the priority projects that are being proposed to be included in the application. These projects represent infrastructure needs in areas such as Brookhill, North Newcastle, Marlin Springs, East Bowmanville, South East Courtice, Courtice Transit -Oriented Community, Northglen, Soper Springs, Soper Hills, and Courtice Waterfront.

The identified projects represent over $55.9 million of infrastructure projects that will enable growth throughout the Municipality. 2.5 In addition to the priority projects, there are 28 secondary projects, related to similar areas of the priority projects, in the 2025 DC Background Study worth $35.3 million which may be included once staff are able to review the application and create the required "bundles" for submission. Page 79 Municipality of Clarington Page 8 Report FSD-027-26 3. Financial Considerations Historical Development Charges Collections 3.1 Development Charges collections will vary from year to year based on the timing of development, the types of development, and changes to the DC legislation. 3.2 Over the past five years, which is more reflective of the existing DC regime than prior to 2021, DC collections peaked in 2022 at $11.3mi1 and fell to $3.8mi1 in 2024. The following chart shows the DC collections for 2021 to 2024: DC Collections 2021 to 2025 $12,000,000 $10,000,000 $8,000,000 $6,000,000 $4,000,000 $2,000,000 $- 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 -Historical $10,444,068 $11,307,984 $6,637,804 $3,772,513 $7,040,377 Forecasted Development Charges Collections 3.3 The Municipality forecasts DC collections on an annual basis to create three scenarios, a fourth scenario utilizes the Hemson DC projections which assumed that the Municipality met its housing targets over the next ten years. The last two years, the Municipality, and many other municipalities, missed those housing targets. Page 80 Municipality of Clarington Page 9 Report FSD-027-26 3.4 The following chart shows the projected DC revenue under the four scenarios for the period 2026 to 2034 (the end of the DC study period) Comparison of DC Revenue Projections 2026 to 2034 $80,000,000 $60,000,000 $40,000,000 $20,000,000 .........................• •� $- 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 — • • Low Forecast — • Base Forecast ......High Forecast DC Study 3.5 While this is a forecast, and actual results may differ due to economic factors outside of the control of the Municipality, it would be expected that a 50 per cent reduction in DCs would accelerate the number of units being built somewhere between the "high forecast" and the DC study. Staff have focused their projections on these two models to determine a reasonable estimate for Council's consideration. 3.6 Based on the high forecast, which assumes an average of 363 units per year, the total DC revenue is approximately $13.7 million per year. This means that the projected 50 per cent reduction would be approximately $6.9 million per year in DCs. 3.7 The DC study assumes an average of 1,111 homes between 2026 and 2028, with average DC revenue of $52.1 million per year. If this housing number is met, the projected 50 per cent reduction would be approximately $26.0 million per year. It should be noted that this level of new units would be an outlier based on historical building numbers. 3.8 Staff are estimating, for a conservative number, that the likely units are between the high forecast and the DC study. This would be approximately 740 units per year for three years and approximately $16.5 million in annual foregone DC revenue ($49.3 million over three years). Page 81 Municipality of Clarington Page 10 Report FSD-027-26 3.9 The following table summarizes the projections for 2026 to 2028: 3.10 Projects put forward target a total of $55.9 which is reasonable based on the foregone revenue. To ensure that the Municipality is only responsible for 10 per cent, the projects proposed need to be at least $49.3 million in value. If the grant is less than $49.3 million there is a strong possibility that the Municipality would be required to fund the deficit of the reduced DCs. These projects would support approximately 42,000 new units throughout the Municipality in a variety of secondary plans. Funding the Municipal Portion 3.11 The Municipality is responsible for 10 per cent of the project costs. The municipal portion may be from a variety of sources including tax levy, user fees, and grants (where stacking is allowed). 3.12 Financing the projects would need to be addressed through the 2027 budget process and may include utilizing reserve and reserve funds, short-term borrowing, or long-term borrowing. The determination of financing will be determined once the projects and timing are approved to maximize financial flexibility and reduce financing costs. 3.13 Funding the projects will require approximately $5.0 million based on the application total of $50.0 million. Staff are suggesting that a portion of the real growth assessment Page 82 Municipality of Clarington Page 11 Report FSD-027-26 be used, net of the growth -related operating costs, to fund the Municipal portion. This would operate like a Tax Increment Grant. 3.14 While it is not possible at this time to provide a precise estimate of potential new taxation revenue (as the actual mix of new units is not reasonably estimated), based on a current average residential assessment of approximately $405,000 and 2,211 new units, there will be approximately $12.7 million in local property taxation revenue. 3.15 Growth brings variable costs to the Municipality; however, those costs are not perfectly linear, they occur like a step. Historically, new growth costs have not been segregated in our budget and have gone to the overall levy. By taking the value of the new assessment, reducing it by the increase in growth expenses, and using that portion to repay the 10 per cent, we can repay the reserve funds that were used to fund the Municipal portion of the projects. General Financial Comments 3.16 By receiving the grant funds, projects can proceed knowing that funds are available to cover the costs. This reduces the need for debenture financing, which reduces interest costs and the overall cost of the project. A reduction of debenture financing also provides flexibility to the Municipality on other projects to utilize debt financing, the debt ceiling. 3.17 An added benefit to participation is that by moving projects ahead, if possible, we are mitigating impacts on inflation. This will remove the project from the list of eligible projects in the future, which will mitigate DC charge increases in the next DC study. 3.18 The actual housing starts is dependent on much more than just development charges. Other inflationary pressures, such as material costs, labour capacity, and interest rates all impact the housing market and are beyond the control of the Municipality. 4.

Adjournment Resolution # PD -094-26 Moved by Councillor Elhajjeh Seconded by Councillor Rang That the meeting adjourn at 10:08 p.m. Carried 13 Page 98 June 10, 2026 Office of the Municipal Clerk The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington 40 Temperance Street, Bowmanville, ON L1 C 3A6 (sending through email: clerks@clarington.net) Re: Request for Development Charge Deferral: Bowmanville Health Centre Expansion, 222 King Street East, Bowmanville (Municipality of Clarington) Dear Municipal Clerk, On behalf of the Bowmanville Health Centre (BHC), I am writing to request that the Municipality of Clarington consider a deferral of the municipal development charges applicable to our health facility expansion at 222 King Street East, Bowmanville. We respectfully ask that this matter be placed before Council, and we welcome the opportunity to speak to it at the appropriate hearing. The Project The BHC is constructing a new four -storey health facility on its existing campus to expand access to community -based health care for the residents of Clarington and the broader Durham Region. The building will consolidate and significantly expand essential services, including: • Expanded diagnostic imaging, including computed tomography (CT) services, delivered by our imaging partner Durham Radiology • A wound care program featuring hyperbaric oxygen therapy chambers, serving OHIP-covered patients who currently travel outside the region for these treatments • A purpose-built dementia care environment developed with the Alzheimer Society • Expanded laboratory services, and • specialty physician clinic space. Every service in the building is oriented toward expanding community -based medical services, reducing wait times, and keeping Durham residents' care close to home Community Benefit and Diagnostic Volumes The expanded imaging program is the centrepiece of this project's community value. In partnership with BHC, Durham Radiology will operate an approved CT service expected to Page 99 perform several thousand publicly funded scans annually for Durham's residents who today often have excessive wait times for this important imaging modality. Durham Radiology is also actively pursuing the addition of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) capacity, which would further reduce regional wait times and out -of -region referrals for advanced diagnostics. Bringing these services into a single community location directly advances the Province's Your Health: A Plan for Connected and Convenient Care framework and the goals of the newly designated Durham Region health team connected, convenient care delivered in the community rather than in distant hospital settings. The Municipality of Clarington and the Region of Durham have consistently identified improved local access to health services as a regional priority, and this facility delivers precisely that. The Request The municipal development charges payable on this project total approximately $367,781.81, due at the building permit stage — before construction is complete and well before the facility can begin serving patients. Bowmanville Health Centre is a private health facility, but the services the Health Centre delivers are publicly funded and community - facing, including primary care, specialist care, and numerous medical services. We now plan to add the CT program delivered by Durham Radiology, the wound care program, expanded laboratory services, dementia care and other specialty services to serve Clarington and Durham residents. Like any health facility, these services generate no revenue until the building is open, equipped, and operating, which is expected by Winter 2028. A development charge of this magnitude, payable at the most capital -intensive stage of the project, places significant pressure on the project's financial viability at precisely the point where every available dollar is committed to construction and to bringing the approved CT service into operation. A deferral of these charges until occupancy (anticipated Winter 2028) would materially improve the project's ability to reach the point of opening its doors to the community, while ensuring the Municipality's charges are ultimately paid in full. We are not asking the Region to forgo these charges, but only to align their timing with the point at which the facility begins generating the activity that supports them. We would be pleased to provide any further information Council requires and to present at the hearing. Thank you for considering this request in the spirit of partnership toward better community health care in Durham Region.

Business Arising from Previous Minutes a) External Signage — Board discussion on the South signage reached consensus on black lettering over a white panel.

Josh will request a rendering and quote for the sign at the previously Board approved location. b) Connectivity Improvements — LiveBarn performed a site visit to determine where their equipment would be placed and the associated cable runs. Neither Josh nor Mark have received a construction update from Viacom on the fibre run.

Page 119 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Report FSD-028-26 Report Overview The Municipality is required to prepare financial statements in compliance with Public Sector Accounting Standards (PSAS) as established by the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) annually. To further enhance the transparency and understandability of the Municipality's financial data, an Annual Financial Report is also issued. This additional information includes five- year trends for certain financial information, provides historical context and trends the financial statements. 1. Background 1.1 Section 294.1 of the Municipal Act, 2001 requires that a municipality, for each fiscal year, prepare annual financial statements for the municipality in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for local governments as recommended, from time to time, by the Public Sector Accounting Board. 1.2 The statements included in the attachments to this report have been prepared in accordance with the current Public Sector Accounting Standards (PSAS) that are in force. Municipality of Clarington Finance and Technology Department staff continue to monitor changes to PSAS as they become effective. 1.3 The Consolidated Financial Statements for the Municipality of Clarington include the organizations, local boards and committees that are controlled by the Municipality and form the reporting entity under PSAS. These include: a. Board of Management for the Historic Downtown Bowmanville Business Improvement Area b. Board of Management for the Newcastle Central Business District Improvement Area c. Board of Management for the Orono Central Business District Improvement Area d. Clarington Public Library Board and Clarington Museums and Archives e. Newcastle Arena Board f. Newcastle Community Hall Board g. Solina Hall Board Page 120 Municipality of Clarington Page 4 Report FSD-028-26 h. Tyrone Community Hall Board Clarington Heritage Committee Bowmanville Santa Clause Parade Committee 1.4 Section 295 of the Act requires the Municipality to publish, within 60 days, the audited financial statements in a newspaper having general circulation within the municipality and a notice that the statements and notes would be available at no cost to the taxpayer upon request. The information may also be provided in a manner that the Treasurer considers appropriate. As in the past, these statements will be made available on the Municipality's website, and copies may be obtained from Finance and Technology Department. 1.5 The Finance and Technology Department drafts an Annual Financial Report, which provides the audited financial statements as well as financial discussion and analysis. This report is becoming a more common report from larger municipalities and is similar to reports seen by publicly traded companies. The numbers in a financial statement only provide a certain amount of information, to be usable to stakeholders' additional information may be beneficial. Staff include five-year charts to provide a trend analysis of certain financial information. 2. Financial Statements for the Board of Management for Historic Downtown Bowmanville Business Improvement Area 2.1 The Statement of Financial Position of the Bowmanville BIA increased in 2025 with higher cash and cash equivalents stemming from increased fundraising revenue. 2.2 The fundraising revenue increased by $7,411, driven by successful events, such as Maplefest, Moonlight Magic and Applefest. 2.3 Expenses were higher in 2025 versus 2024, with a total increase of $31,324. The increase is mainly driven by higher events and promotional costs. 2.4 The Bowmanville BIA has an accumulated surplus of $117,996 (2024-103,567). 3. Financial Statements for the Board of Management for the Newcastle Central Business District Improvement Area 3.1 The Newcastle BIA's revenue was higher by $14,120 versus 2024, driven by higher fundraising revenue during the year related to successful events. Page 121 Municipality of Clarington Page 5 Report FSD-028-26 3.2 Expenses are higher by $28,976, which primarily is due to increased advertising and event expenses for Canada day and Christmas / parade expenses. 3.3 The annual deficit of $15,528 decreases the accumulated surplus to $64,770, which can be utilized in future years to promote and support the Newcastle BIA. 3.4 The net financial assets of the Newcastle BIA decreased by $33,514, which is a mainly driven by the annual deficit of $16,613 and the purchase of tangible capital assets of $16,801. 4. Financial Statements for the Orono Central Business District Improvement Area 4.1 The main changes in the Orono BIA statement of financial position are a decrease of cash of $9,428 and an increase in accounts receivable of $3,641, which is related to the annual deficit of $5,951. 4.2 The Orono BIA saw a decrease in revenue of $9,878 for 2025 over 2024. This was driven mainly by a decrease in transfers from reserve funds. In 2024, the transfer from reserve funds was used to support improved lighting, branding and festival banners. 4.3 The 2025 expenses were in line with spending levels from 2024. 4.4 The annual deficit of $5,951 decreased the accumulated surplus to $8,411. The BIA has an accumulated surplus which is sufficient to cover its liabilities. 5. Financial Statements for the Municipality of Clarington Trust Funds 5.1 The Trust Funds consist of various trust funds administered by the Municipality of Clarington. The Trust Funds include holdings related to the care and maintenance of cemeteries and funds bequest to the Newcastle Community Hall. Trust Funds are not included in the Municipality of Clarington's consolidated financial statements. The financial reporting is in accordance with the Canadian accounting standards for not -for- profit organizations. 5.2 The Trusts do not have any liabilities and consist predominantly of investments, which are primarily GICs. The due (to) from the Municipality of Clarington relates to expenses incurred at the cemetery or funds received by the Municipality, which are due to be transferred to the trust fund. Page 122 Municipality of Clarington Page 6 Report FSD-028-26 5.3 During the year, $67,784 in care and maintenance receipts were received, with an additional $69,372 of interest earned on the trust fund investments. The trusts transferred $65,098 to the Municipality for the ongoing maintenance of the cemeteries. 6. Consolidated Financial Statements for the Municipality of Clarington Administrative 6.1 The letter stating management's responsibility for the financial statements is a requirement of PSAS and serves to emphasize that the financial statements are the responsibility of the Municipality, not the auditors. 6.2 The Independent Auditor's Report is in accordance with requirements of Canadian Auditing Standards (CAS). The report indicates the auditor's opinion on whether the financial statements and the notes are in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards. The audit opinion is "clean" which indicates that we are materially compliant with applicable accounting standards. Consolidated Statement of Financial Position 6.3 The Consolidated Statement of Financial Position is the public sector accounting equivalent of a balance sheet. The statement provides a snapshot, as at December 31, 2025, of the assets, liabilities and accumulated surplus (an indicator of service capacity) specifically on that day. 6.4 Net Financial Assets (the difference between financial assets and liabilities) decreased by approximately $1.1 million in 2025. The financial asset -to -liability ratio of 1.5:1.0 shows that the Municipality is able to fulfill its financial obligations. The reserve and reserve fund balances total $66.6 million and are slightly lower than the 2024 level of $70.0 million. 6.5 A detailed breakdown of the accumulated surplus is presented in Note 20, "Accumulated Surplus" of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The term "accumulated surplus" does not mean and cannot be implied to mean that there are "cash or funds" available for spending. Most of the value in the accumulated surplus represents non -financial assets and reflects the Municipality's investment in the required infrastructure to deliver the programs and services that stakeholders expect. Consolidated Statement of Operations 6.6 The Consolidated Statement of Operations is the public sector accounting equivalent of an income statement in the private sector. The Consolidated Statement of Operations Page 123 Municipality of Clarington Page 7 Report FSD-028-26 provides a summary of revenue and expenses for the year, with the annual surplus representing the difference between the cost of providing the Municipality's services and the revenues recognized during the year. 6.7 In accordance with PSAS, the Municipality uses the accrual basis of accounting rather than the cash -basis. Revenue is recognized when it is earned, and expenses are recognized when they are incurred, as opposed to when funds transfer. 6.8 The Consolidated Statement of Operations, as required by PSAS, lists revenues based on like revenue streams (e.g., taxation, user charges, grants) and expenses based on functional segments. The functional segments for expenses follows the Province of Ontario's Financial Information Return (FIR) segmentation on service lines. 6.9 Information on the segments' revenues and expenses, including expense accounting object (e.g., salaries and wages, operating materials, contract services), are included in Schedule 2. Current year and prior year schedules are provided to allow for year -over - year comparisons. 6.10 Schedule 3 shows the budgeted breakdown by segment for each accounting object. This is not a required schedule; but is included to provide additional information to users. 6.11 Property taxation includes the Municipality's portion only. Funds which are collected on behalf of the Region of Durham, and the Province of Ontario (for education purposes) are not shown as part of the Statement of Operations. The notes to the financial statements contain a note disclosure on the funds which have been collected and remitted on behalf of the other levels of government. 6.12 Investment income and deferred revenue experienced increases. Most of the deferred revenue earned relates to development charges and is recognized when the asset is recognized. Deferred revenue may also be recognized when grant obligations or performance obligations are met. 6.13 Amortization expense is a non -cash expense which allocates the capital cost of assets across the useful life of the asset. 6.14 Overall, the expenses for the Municipality were slightly above the 2025 budget, and higher than 2024 actuals. It should be noted that the surplus and budget shown on the statements are in accordance with PSAB and are not shown on the same basis that the Municipality budgets annually (which uses a modified cash -basis). Note 22 in the Consolidated Financial Statements contains a reconciliation of adopted budget to PSAB financial statements budget figures. Page 124 Municipality of Clarington Page 8 Report FSD-028-26 6.15 The Consolidated Statement of Operations shows an annual surplus of $21.4 million for 2025; this compares to a $7.2 million surplus indicated in the budget column. This variance is a result of the differing treatment between the cash -based budget process and the accrual -based reporting process. Included in revenue is $7.4 million, the fair market value of contributed assets transferred from developers (assumed subdivisions) during the year. In future years there will be expenses related to these assets' replacement, maintenance and repairs. As well, there was a significant donation from Ontario Power Generation in 2025, in the amount of $14.0 million, which is reflected in the increase in Donations and contributions from others revenue. Consolidated Statement of Remeasurement Gains 6.16 The Consolidated Statement of Remeasurement Gains shows the impacts of certain unrealized gains on the financial instruments of the Municipality. In 2025, the gains shown reflect the adjustment from cost to market value of the portfolio investments as at December 31, 2025. 6.17 Unrealized gains and losses are transferred to the Consolidated Statement of Operations once realized. The fluctuations in market are shown through this statement, as an indicator of potential risk. Consolidated Statement of Changes in Net Financial Assets 6.18 The purpose of the Consolidated Statement of Change in Net Financial Assets is to provide financial statement users additional information on the Municipality's financial activities during the year. 6.19 The statement starts with the annual surplus and backs out non -financial activities such as amortization, accounting gains/losses, and the purchase and sale of assets. 6.20 The main variances between 2025 and 2024 relate to the acquisition of tangible capital assets and the difference in the assets under construction transferred to tangible capital assets in 2025, as well as the impact of unrealized remeasurement gains for the year. Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows 6.21 The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows explains how the organization financed its activities and met its cash obligations. As is common with public sector entities, the Municipality uses the indirect method of cash flow statements, which takes the annual surplus/deficit and adjusts for non -cash transactions as well as the implied cash impact through changes in the statement of financial position. Page 125 Municipality of Clarington Page 9 Report FSD-028-26 6.22 The cash position of the Municipality decreased during the year from $105.6 million in cash to $100.4 million. During the year, operating activities contributed to an increase of $42.1 million, this includes the receipt of receivables as well as cash (development charges) that are restricted to be used in future years. 6.23 Capital activities represent the investment the Municipality has made in its tangible capital assets that are utilized in the delivery of services to stakeholders. The Municipality invested $57.4 million in cash outlays in 2025. 6.24 The Municipality investment levels increased during 2025 by $38.9 million, mainly due to the investment of debenture proceeds received in 2025, as the capital expenditures associated with these funds will be expended in future years. 6.25 Financing activities during the year included repayment of $3.8 million in the principal of long-term debenture debt and an increase in proceeds of debenture issue of $52.8 million. 7. Financial Considerations Not Applicable. 8. Strategic Plan Not Applicable. 9. Climate Change Not Applicable. 10. Concurrence Not Applicable. 11. Conclusion It is respectfully recommended that the financial statements for the Municipality and its components be approved (subject to the completion of the Deloitte LLP quality control review, and possible minor wording or note disclosure adjustments), that Staff be authorized to sign the final letters to complete the audit, and that Staff be directed to finalize the Annual Financial Report with the approved financial statements.

Financial statPmPnts of The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Board of Management for Historic Downtown Bowmanville Business Improvement Area December 31, 2025 Page 128 Independent Auditor's Report Statement of financial position Statement of operations Statement of change in net financial assets Statement of cash flows Notes to the financial statements 1-3 L! 8 -9 Page 129 Deloitte Adelaide Bay Adelaide East 8 Street West Suite 200 Toronto ON M5H 0A9 Canada Tel: 416-601-6150 Fax: 416-601-6151 www.deloitte.ca Independent Auditor's Report To the Members of Council of The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington, Members of The Board of Management for the Historic Downtown Bowmanville Business Improvement Area, Inhabitants and Ratepayers of The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Qualified Opinion We have audited the financial statements of The Board of Management for the Historic Downtown Bowmanville Business Improvement Area (the "BIA"), which comprise of the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2025, and the statements of operations, changes in net financial assets and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting polices (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the BIA as at December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations, its changes in net financial assets, and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards. Basis for Qualified Opinion The BIA derives revenue from fundraising activities the completeness of which is not susceptible to satisfactory audit verification. Accordingly, our verification of these revenues was limited to the amounts recorded in the records of the BIA and we were not able to determine whether any adjustments might be necessary to fundraising revenue, annual surplus, and cash flows from operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, financial assets as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and net financial assets as at January 1 and December 31 for both the 2025 and 2024 years. We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards ("Canadian GAAS"). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the BIA in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion. Other Matter The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 were audited by another auditor who expressed a qualified opinion on those statements on July 14, 2025 for the reasons described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report. Page 130 Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the BIA's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the BIA or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the BIA's financial reporting process. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the BIA's internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the BIA's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the BIA to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

It conducts its operations guided by the provisions of provincial statutes such as the Municipal Act and related legislation. 1. Significant accounting policies The financial statements of the Board are the representations of management prepared in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards ("PSAS"). The focus of the financial statements is on the financial position of the Board and the changes thereto. The Statement of Financial Position includes the assets and liabilities of the Board. Financial assets are those assets which could provide resources to discharge existing liabilities or finance future operations. Non -financial assets are not available to discharge existing liabilities and are held for use in the provision of services. They have useful lives extending beyond the current year and are not intended for sale in the ordinary course of operations. Accumulated surplus represents the difference between assets and liabilities of the Board. This provides information about the Board's overall future revenue requirements and its ability to finance operations and meet its obligations. (a) Revenue recognition Taxation revenue is recorded when earned and is based on a special assessment. Other revenues are recorded in the period in which transactions or events occurred that gave rise to the revenues. (b) Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with PSAS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (c) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are made up of cash held in financial institutions as well as temporary investments with maturities of 90 days or less. (d) Accounts receivable Accounts receivable includes amounts to be received that can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured. 2. Budget data As per the Board's By-laws, the budget information presented in these financial statements is based on the budget approved by the Board Members on February 11, 2025. 3. Related party transactions The Board is controlled by The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington (the "Municipality") and is dependent on the Municipality for funding through taxes levied by the Municipality on behalf of the Board on an annual basis. During the year, the Board received $184,821 ($180,314 in 2024) of taxes levied by the Municipality on behalf of the Board. Page 8 Page 137 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Board of Management for the Historic Downtown Bowmanville Business District Improvement Area Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2025 4. Risk management The Board has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments: credit risk and liquidity risk. (a) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of a financial loss to the Board if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Such risks arise principally from certain financial assets held by the Board consisting of accounts receivable. The Board's exposure to credit risk associated with accounts receivable is assessed as low because they are due from governments. (b) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Board will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Board's objective is to have sufficient liquidity to meet these liabilities when due. The Board monitors its cash balance and cash flows generated from operations to meet its liquidity requirements. The liquidity risk arises from the financial liabilities consisting of accounts payable. 5. Comparative amounts Certain of the prior year comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year's financial statement presentation.

In our opinion, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the BIA as at December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations, its changes in net financial assets, and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards. Basis for Qualified Opinion The BIA derives revenue from fundraising activities the completeness of which is not susceptible to satisfactory audit verification. Accordingly, our verification of these revenues was limited to the amounts recorded in the records of the BIA and we were not able to determine whether any adjustments might be necessary to fundraising revenue, annual deficit, and cash flows from operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, financial assets as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and net financial assets as at January 1 and December 31 for both the 2025 and 2024 years. We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards ("Canadian GAAS"). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the BIA in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion. Other Matter The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 were audited by another auditor who expressed a qualified opinion on those statements on July 14, 2025 for the reasons described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report. Page 141 Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the BIA's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the BIA or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the BIA's financial reporting process. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the BIA's internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the BIA's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the BIA to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Such risks arise principally from certain financial assets held by the Board consisting of accounts receivable. The Board's exposure to credit risk associated with accounts receivable is associated as low because the Board assesses, on a continuous basis, amounts receivable on the basis of amounts for which ultimate collection is reasonably assured.

Accounts receivable As of December 31, 2025, $1,116 (nil in 2024) is receivable from customers for merchandise sales and $2,525 (nil in 2024) relate to donations which were collected subsequent to the year- end. 4. Related party balances and transactions The Board is controlled by The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington (the "Municipality") and is dependent on the Municipality for funding through taxes levied by the Municipality on behalf of the Board on an annual basis. During the year, the Board received $6,000 ($6,000 in 2024) of taxes levied by the Municipality on behalf of the Board. 5. Risk management The Board has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments: credit risk and liquidity risk. (a) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of a financial loss to the Board if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Such risks arise principally from certain financial assets held by the Board consisting of accounts receivable. The Board's exposure to credit risk associated with accounts receivable is assessed as low because the Board assesses, on a continuous basis, amounts receivable on the basis of amounts for which ultimate collection is reasonably assured. (b) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Board will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Board's objective is to have sufficient liquidity to meet these liabilities when due. The Board monitors its cash balance and cash flows generated from operations to meet its liquidity requirements. The liquidity risk arises from the financial liabilities consisting of accounts payable.

Adelaide Bay Adelaide East 8 Street West Suite 200 Toronto ON M5H OA9 Canada Tel: 416-601-6150 Fax: 416-601-6151 www.deloitte.ca Independent Auditor's Report To the Members of Council of The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Opinion We have audited the financial statements of The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Trust Funds (the "Trust Funds"), which comprise of the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2025, and the statements of operations and changes in fund balances, and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting polices (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Trust Funds as at December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flow for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not -for-profit organizations. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards ("Canadian GAAS"). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Trust Funds in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Other Matter The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements on July 15, 2025. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged With Governance for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not -for-profit organizations, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Page 163 In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Trust Funds' ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Trust Funds or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Trust Funds' financial reporting process. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust Funds' internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Trust Funds' ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Trust Funds to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. Page 164 We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Page 168 Page 6 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Trust Funds Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2025 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Trust Funds (the "Trust Funds") consist of various trust funds administered by the Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington (the "Municipality"). The Trust Funds include holdings related to the care and maintenance of cemeteries and bequests of funds to the Newcastle Community Hall. 1. Significant accounting policies The financial statements of the Trust Funds are the representations of management prepared in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not -for-profit organizations and reflect the following policies: Basis of accounting Revenues are recorded in the period in which the transactions or events occurred that gave rise to the revenue. Interest revenue is recorded as earned. Expenditures are recorded in the period the goods and services are acquired and a liability is incurred. Refunds are reported in the period issued. Financial instruments The Trust Funds has selected the following classifications and measurements for its financial instruments' assets and liabilities: Asset/liability Category Cash Fair value Investments Cost Interest receivable Amortized cost Due from Municipality of Clarington Amortized cost Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value when the Trust Funds becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities originated or exchanged in related party transactions are initially measured at cost. When the instrument has repayment terms, cost is determined using its undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest payments, less any impairment losses. Otherwise, the cost is determined using the consideration transferred or received by the Trust Funds. Subsequently, all financial instruments are measured at amortized cost, with the exception of cash. Financial assets measured at amortized cost are assessed at each reporting date for indications of impairment. If such impairment exists, the asset is written down and the resulting impairment loss is recognized in the statement of operations and changes in fund balances. Use of estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Canadian accounting standards for not -for-profit organizations, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenditures during the year. Actual results could differ from these estimates. There are no significant estimates in these financial statements. Page 7 Page 169 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Trust Funds Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2025 2. Impact of the change in the basis of accounting These financial statements are the first financial statements for which the Trust Funds applied Canadian accounting standards for not -for-profit organizations as the financial reporting framework. Prior to January 1, 2025, the Trust Funds followed Canadian Public Sector Accounting Standards. First-time adoption of this basis of accounting had no impact on the statement of financial position as at the transition date, January 1, 2024, or on the excess of revenue over expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024. However, adopting these standards resulted in the addition of a statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024, which is unaudited. 3. Investments The total investments held by the trust funds of $2,442,218 ($2,366,306 in 2024) reported on the Statement of Financial Position at cost have a fair value of $2,447,303 ($2,372,583 in 2024) at the end of the year. The investments consist of holdings pursuant to the provisions of the Municipality's investment policy and comprise guaranteed investment certificates issued by a financial institution. It is the Trust Funds' intention to hold these investments until maturity. The investments have interest rates ranging from 2.05% to 2.40% (2024 - 2.75 - 4.03%) with maturity dates ranging from August 6, 2026, to September 4, 2026 (2024 - August 6, 2025 - September 8, 2025). 4. Care and maintenance funds The Care and Maintenance Funds administered by the Municipality are funded by the sale of cemetery plots. These funds are invested, and the interest earned is used to perform care and maintenance to the Municipality's cemeteries. The operations and investments of these funds are undertaken by the Municipality in accordance with the regulations of the Cemeteries Act. 5. Related party transactions Related party transactions include $3,918 ($5,073 in 2024) receivable from the Municipality as at December 31, 2025. 6. Government remittances There are no amounts outstanding with regards to government remittances as at December 31, 2025, and 2024. 7. Risk management Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of a financial loss to the Trust Fund if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk arises from the Trust Funds' accounts receivable. The Trust Funds' exposure to credit risk is assessed as low because amounts are receivable from a reputable financial institution and the Municipality, and therefore ultimate collection is reasonably assured. Page 8 Page 170 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Trust Funds Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2025 7. Risk management (continued) Market risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and equity risk. a) Currency risk: Currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign currency rates. The Trust Funds are not exposed to currency risk. b) Interest risk: Interest rate risk is the potential for financial loss caused by fluctuations in fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments because of changes in market interest rates. The Trust Funds are exposed to this risk through its interest -bearing investments. c) Equity risk: Equity risk is the uncertainty associated with the valuation of assets arising from changes in equity markets. The Trust Funds are not exposed to equity risk. There were no changes to risk exposures from the prior year.

Page 182 8 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 The Municipality of Clarington (the "Municipality") is a municipality in the Province of Ontario, Canada. It conducts its operations guided by the provisions of provincial statutes such as the Municipal Act, the Municipal Affairs Act and related legislation. 1. Significant accounting policies The consolidated financial statements of the Municipality are the representations of management prepared in accordance with Canadian Public Sector Accounting Standards ("PSAS"). a. Significant accounting policies adopted are as follows: Reporting entity These consolidated financial statements reflect financial assets, liabilities, operating revenues and expenses, and the changes in investment in tangible capital assets of the Municipality of Clarington. The reporting entity is comprised of all organizations, local boards and committees controlled by the Municipality, including the following: - Board of Management for the Historic Downtown Bowmanville Business Improvement Area - Board of Management for the Newcastle Central Business District Improvement Area - Board of Management for the Orono Central Business District Improvement Area - Clarington Public Library Board and Clarington Museums and Archives - Newcastle Arena Board - Newcastle Community Hall Board - Solina Hall Board - Tyrone Community Hall Board - Bowmanville Santa Claus Parade Committee - Clarington Heritage Committee All material inter -entity transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. ii. Investment in Elexicon Corporation The Municipality of Clarington, along with the City of Pickering, the Town of Ajax, the City of Belleville and the Town of Whitby own Elexicon Corporation. The Municipality of Clarington holds a 9.6433% (2024 - 9.248%) share of ownership. This share interest changed in 2025 with the redemption of promissory notes and subsequent conversion to newly issued common shares of Elexicon Corporation. The Municipality's investment in Elexicon Corporation and its subsidiaries is accounted for on a modified equity basis, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles as recommended by PSAS for investments in government business partnerships. Under the modified equity basis of accounting, the business partnership's accounting principles are not adjusted to conform to those of the Municipality and inter - organizational transactions and balances are not eliminated. The Municipality recognizes its equity interest in the annual income or loss of Elexicon Corporation in its "Consolidated Statement of Operations" with a corresponding increase or decrease in Page 183 9 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) a. Significant accounting policies adopted are as follows: (continued) ii. Investment in Elexicon Corporation (continued) its investment asset account. Any dividends that the Municipality may receive from Elexicon Corporation and other capital transactions will be reflected as adjustments in the investment asset account. iii. Accounting for region and school board transactions The taxation and other revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities with respect to the operations of the school boards and the Regional Municipality of Durham are not reflected in these consolidated financial statements. iv. Accounting for phase-in/capping provisions Increases/decreases in property taxes levied as a result of the application of phase- in/capping legislation are not reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Operations but are reported on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. v. Trust funds Trust funds and their related operations administered by the Municipality are not included in these consolidated financial statements, but are reported separately on the "Trust Funds Statement of Operations" and "Trust Funds Statement of Financial Position". vi. Financial Instruments Cash and cash equivalents and investments quoted in an active market are measured at fair value. All other investments are measured at cost. Accounts receivable, promissory notes receivable, accounts payable, and long-term debt are measured at cost or amortized cost. The carrying amount of each of these financial instruments is presented on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value of financial instruments are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Remeasurement Gains and Losses. Upon settlement, the cumulative gain or loss is reclassified from the Consolidated Statement of Remeasurement Gains and Losses and recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Interest and dividends attributable to financial instruments are reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. When investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value of financial instruments are externally restricted, the investment income and fair value changes are recognized as revenue in the period in which the resources are used for the purpose specified. For financial instruments measured using amortized cost, the effective interest rate Page 184 10 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) a. Significant accounting policies adopted are as follows: (continued) vi. Financial Instruments (continued) method is used to determine interest revenue or expense. All financial assets are tested annually for impairment. When financial assets are impaired, impairment losses are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Transaction costs are added to the carrying value for financial instruments measured using cost or amortized cost. Transaction costs are expensed for financial instruments measured at fair value. b. Basis of accounting Accrual basis of accounting Revenues and expenses are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. The accrual basis of accounting recognizes revenues in the period in which transactions or events occurred that gave rise to the revenues; expenses are recognized in the period the goods and services are acquired and a liability is incurred or transfers are due. ii. Non -financial assets Non -financial assets are not available to discharge existing liabilities and are held for use in the provision of services. They have useful lives extending beyond the current year, and are not intended for sale in the ordinary course of operations. The change in non -financial assets during the year, together with the excess of revenues over expenses, provides the Changes in Net Financial Assets for the year. (a) Tangible capital assets ("TCA") Tangible capital assets are recorded at cost, which includes all amounts that are directly attributable to acquisition, construction, development or betterment of the asset. The cost, less residual value, of the tangible capital assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives as follows: Land improvements 20-75 years Buildings 5-75 years Vehicles 7-20 years Equipment 3-25 years Linear road and related 7-75 years Linear storm sewers 40-75 years Page 185 11 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) b. Basis of accounting (continued) ii. Non -financial assets (continued) Amortization The Municipality uses the straight line method of amortization. For pooled assets and networks such as roads and storm sewers, one half of the annual amortization is charged in the year of acquisition or in-service date and in the year of disposal. For individual assets, if acquired (or in-service) in the first half of the year, the full year of the amortization is charged. If acquired (or in-service) in the second half of the year, one half of the annual amortization is charged. Similarly in the year of disposal, if the asset is disposed of in the first half of the year, one half of the amortization is charged but if disposed of in the second half of the year the full annual amortization is charged. Assets under construction are not amortized until the asset is available for productive use, at which time they are capitalized. Contribution of tangible capital assets Tangible capital assets received as contributions are recorded at their fair value at the date received/assumed and that fair value is also recorded as revenue. Works of art and historic assets The Municipality holds various works of art and historical trasures pertaining to the heritage and history of the Municipality. These items are not recognized as tangible caital assets in the consolidated financial statements as a reasonable estimate of the future benefits associated with such property cannot be made. (b) Inventories Inventories held for consumption are recorded at the lower of cost or replacement cost. Reserves and reserve funds Certain amounts, as approved by Council, are set aside in reserves and reserve funds for future operating and capital purposes. Transfers to and/or from reserves and reserve funds are an adjustment to the respective fund when approved. Reserves and reserve funds form part of the Municipality's accumulated surplus. iv. Deferred revenues Deferred revenues, which include advance payments for tickets, building permits and program registration fees; contributions from developers according to Section 37 of the Planning Act; and revenues set aside for specific purposes (obligatory reserve funds), represent fees which have been collected, but for which the related services have not yet been provided. Revenue is recognized when the related activity occurs or the Page 186 12 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) b. Basis of accounting (continued) iv. Deferred revenues (continued) service is performed. v. Employee future benefits The present value of the cost of providing employees with future benefits programs is expensed as employees earn these entitlements through service. The cost of the benefits earned by employees is actuarially determined using the projected benefit method prorated on service and management's best estimate of retirement ages of employees and expected health care and dental costs. Actuarial gains or losses are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected average remaining service life of all employees covered. vi. Contaminated sites Contaminated sites are the result of contamination being introduced in air, soil, water or sediment of a chemical, organic, or radioactive material or live organism that exceed an environmental standard. A liability for remediation of contaminated sites is recognized when all of the following criteria are met: a) an environmental standard exists; b) contamination exceeds the environmental standard; c) the organization is directly responsible or accepts responsibility for the liability; d) future economic benefits will be given up; and e) a reasonable estimate of the liability can be made. Changes in this estimate are recorded in the Municipality's statement of operations. As of December 31, 2025, there was no liability recorded on the statement. vii. Revenue recognition Taxation Property tax billings are prepared by the Municipality based on assessment rolls issued by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation ("MPAC"). Tax rates are established annually by Council, incorporating amounts to be raised for local services and amounts the Municipality is required to collect on behalf of the Regional Municipality of Durham and the Province of Ontario in respect of education taxes. Taxes are recorded at estimated amounts when they meet the definition of an asset, have been authorized and the taxable event occurs. For property taxes, the taxable event is the period for which the tax is levied. As taxes recorded are initially based on management's best estimate of the taxes that will be received, it is possible that changes in future conditions, such as reassessments due to audits, appeals and court decisions, could result in a change in the amount of tax revenue recognized. Taxes receivable are recognized net of an allowance for anticipated uncollectible amounts. A normal part of the assessment process is the issuance of supplementary Page 187 13 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) b. Basis of accounting (continued) vii. Revenue recognition (continued) assessment rolls which provide updated information with respect to changes in property assessment. Once a supplementary roll is received, the Municipality determines the taxes applicable and renders supplementary tax billings. Assessments of the related property taxes are subject to appeal. Any supplementary billing adjustments made necessary by the determination of such changes will be issued / billed as they are determined and the effect shared with the Region of Durham and school boards, as appropriate. Government transfers Government transfers are recognized as revenue in the consolidated financial statements when the transfer is authorized and any eligibility criteria are met, except to the extent that transfer stipulations give rise to an obligation that meets the definition of a liability. Transfers are recognized as deferred revenue when transfer stipulations give rise to a liability. Transfer revenue is recognized in the statement of operations as the stipulation liabilities are settled. Government transfers and developer contributions -in -kind related to capital acquisitions are required to be recognized as revenue in the consolidated financial statements in the period in which the tangible capital assets are acquired. User fees and service charges User charges for licenses and permits are recognized when the services are performed, good are delivered, all performance obiligations are satisfied and there is reasonable assurance of collection. All other user fees are recognized when the services are performed or goods are delivered and there is reasonable assurance of collection. Other Other revenue is recorded when it is earned and collection is reasonably assured. Investment income Investment income earned on operating surplus funds and reserve funds (other than obligatory reserve funds) are recorded as revenue in the period earned. Investment income earned on obligatory reserve funds are recorded directly to each respective fund balance and forms part of the deferred revenue — obligatory reserve funds balance. viii. Inventory for resale Inventory for resale is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value on an average Page 188 14 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) b. Basis of accounting (continued) viii. Inventory for resale (continued) cost basis. ix. Use of estimates Since precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of periodic financial statements necessarily involves the use of estimates and approximations. These have been made using careful judgment. Actual results could differ from these estimates. x. Asset retirement obligations Asset retirement obligations (ARO's) are provisions for legal obligations for the retirement of the Municipality's tangible capital assets that are either in productive use or no longer in productive use. An ARO liability is recognized when, as at the financial reporting date: (a) there is a statutory, contractual, or legal obligation to incur retirement costs in relation to a tangible capital asset; (b) the past transaction or event giving rise to the liability has occurred; (c) it is expected that future economic benefits will be given up; and (d) a reasonable estimate of the amount can be made. The Municipality recognizes asset retirement obligations in the period in which it incurs a statutory, contractual, or legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible capital assets resulting from acquisition, construction, development, and or normal operation of tangible capital assets. The liabilities are measured initially at management's best estimate of the discounted future cash flows required to settle the retirement obligation. For tangible capital assets that are still in productive use, the estimated retirement costs are capitalized and amortized on the same basis as the related tangible capital asset. For assets that are no longer in productive use, the liability is expensed in the period. In subsequent periods, the liability is accreted over time. The asset retirement obligations estimates are adjusted, if necessary, for changes in the liability estimate or timing of the future cash flows, as applicable. Accretion expenses are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Actual costs incurred are charged against the asset retirement obligation to the extent of the liability recorded. Differences between actual costs incurred and the liability, if any are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations when remediation is complete.

Classification The carrying value of each class of the Municipality's financial instruments is provided in the following tables, based on their measurement method. Cash and cash equivalents Investments Accounts receivable Promissory notes Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Debenture debt Cost / 2025 Amortized Fair Value Cost Total $100,443,293 $ - $ 100,443,293 95,684,588 130,423,675 226,108,263 - 20,166,345 20,166,345 (19,180,790) (19,180,790) (129,120,126) (129,120,126) Balance at the end of the year $196,127,881 $ 2,289,104 $ 198,416,985 Cost / Amortized Fair Value Cost 2024 Total Cash and cash equivalents $105,646,870 $ - $105,646,870 Investments 40,196,827 129,969,202 170,166,029 Accounts receivable - 21,284,448 21,284,448 Promissory notes - 8,321,000 8,321,000 Accounts payable and accrued liabilities - (16,354,255) (16,354,255) Debenture debt - (80,164,952) (80,164,952) Balance at the end of the year $145,843,697 $ 63,055,443 $208,899,140 The only financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value are cash and cash equivalents and certain equity investments quoted in an active market. These are fair value measurements that are derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in the active markets for identical assets or liabilities using the last bid price. Page 190 16 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 2. Financial Instruments (continued) b. Financial Instrument Fair Value Measurement The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured at fair value, using a fair value hierarchy of levels 1 to 3. The levels reflect the significance of the inputs used in making the fair value measurements, as described below: • Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities • Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices) • Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 2025 Total Cash and cash equivalents $100,443,293 $ - $ - $100,443,293 Investments 95,684,588 - - 95,684,588 Total $196,127,881 $ - $ - $196,127,881 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 2024 Total Cash and cash equivalents $105,646,870 $ - $ - $105,646,870 Investments 40,196,827 - - 40,196,827 Total $145,843,697 $ - $ - $145,843,697 There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for the year ended December 31, 2025. There were also no transfers in or out of Level 3. c. Financial Instrument Risk Management The Municipality is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and other price risk from its financial instruments. This note describes the Municipality's objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further qualitative and quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented below and throughout these consolidated financial statements. Page 191 17 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 2. Financial Instruments (continued) c. Financial Instrument Risk Management (continued) Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Municipality if a debtor fails to make payments of interest and principal when due. The Municipality is exposed to this risk relating to its cash and cash equivalents, investments, and accounts receivable. The Municipality holds its cash accounts with federally regulated chartered banks who are insured by the Canadian Deposit Insurance Corporation. In the event of default, the Municipality's cash accounts are insured up to $100,000. Accounts receivable are primarily due from the federal and provincial governments, as well as various developers and residents. Credit risk is mitigated by the financial solvency of the Provincial government and the highly diversified nature of the receivables. The Municipality measures its exposure to credit risk based on how long the amounts have been outstanding. An impairment allowance for accounts receivable of $12,000 (2024 - $11,000) and taxes receivable of $100,000 (2024 - $100,000) is set up based on the Municipality's historical experience regarding collections. It is management's opinion that the Municipality is not exposed to significant credit risk. There have been no significant changes from the previous year in the exposure to risk or policies, procedures and methods used to measure the risk. Market Risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and equity risk. There have been no significant changes from the previous year in the exposure to risk or policies, procedures and methods used to measure the risk. Currency Risk Currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign currency rates. The Municipality is not exposed to currency risk. Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the potential for financial loss caused by fluctuations in fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments because of changes in market interest rates. The Municipality is exposed to this risk through its municipal debt and interest bearing Page 192 18 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 2. Financial Instruments (continued) c. Financial Instrument Risk Management (continued) investments. The Municipality holds investments which consist of guaranteed investment certificates (GICs), fixed income securities, principal protected notes and investments managed by Prudent Investor with varying maturities from January 2026 to November 2035 (2024 - January 2025 to August 2034) and bearing interest rates between 1.40% and 8.45% (2024 - 0.95% to 12.0%). Investments with a maturity of less than 90 days as at the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position date are reported within cash and cash equivalents, due to the highly liquid nature of these investments. The Municipality holds municipal debt with variable interest rates which involve risks of default on interest and principal and price changes due to, without limitation, such factors as interest rate changes and general economic conditions. The Municipality structures its finances so as to stagger the maturities of debt, thereby minimizing exposure to interest rate fluctuations. There has been an increase in interest rate risk in the December 31, 2025 year end as the amount invested in the investment portfolio increased in the year. Equity Risk Equity risk is the uncertainty associated with the valuation of assets arising from changes in equity markets. The Municipality is exposed to this risk for investments measured at fair value. Refer to note 5 for a breakdown of investments by type. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Municipality will encounter difficulty in meeting its obligation associated with financial liabilities. Liquidity risk includes the risk that, as a result of operational liquidity requirements, the Municipality will not have sufficient funds to settle a transaction on the due date; will be forced to sell financial assets at a value, which is less than what they are worth; or may be unable to settle or recover a financial asset. The Municipality is exposed to this risk mainly in respect of accounts payable and accrued liabilities and long-term debt. The Municipality's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient cash flows to fund its operations and to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions. There have not been any changes to these risks from the prior year. Unless otherwise noted, the expected cash outflows are within one year. The following table sets out the contractual maturities (representing undiscounted contractual cash -flows) of financial liabilities: Page 193 19 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 2.

Page 198 24 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 8. Investment in Elexicon Corporation (continued) c. Contingencies and guarantees of Elexicon Corporation (the "Corporation") as disclosed in their financial statements are as follows: (continued) Insurance premiums charged to each member electric utility consist of a levy per $1,000 of service revenue subject to a credit or surcharge based on each electric utility's claims experience. (ii) Contractual obligation - Hydro One Networks Inc. The Corporation's subsidiary, Elexicon Energy Inc. (EE), is party to a connection and cost recovery agreement with Hydro One related to the construction by Hydro One of a transformer station designated to meet EE's anticipated electricity load growth. Construction of the project was completed during 2007 and EE connected to the transformer station during 2008. To the extent that the cost of the project is not recoverable from future transformation connection revenues, EE is obliged to pay a capital contribution equal to the difference between these revenues and the construction costs allocated to EE. The construction costs allocated to EE for the project are $19,950,000. Hydro One has performed a final true -up in 2024 based on actual load at the end of the fifteenth anniversary of the in-service date. The shortfall of connection transformation revenue for Hydro One resulted in an accrual recorded in 2024 of $4,062,000 and EE recognized this amount as an intangible asset. The final true -up payment was made in January 2025 and there is no further obligation with respect to this agreement. d. Lease commitments - Elexicon Corporation Future minimum non -cancellable lease payment obligations under finance leases are as follows: 2026 $ 71,000 2027 44,000 $ 115,000 9. Employee future benefits liabilities a. Accumulated sick leave entitlement (i) Firefighters The Municipality provides two sick leave accumulation plans for firefighters. Plan A accumulates at the rate of one day per month of completed years of service to a maximum of 182 days. These employees may become entitled to a cash payment on retirement, early retirement, termination or death, at the rate of 50% of the accumulated Page 199 25 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 9. Employee future benefits liabilities (continued) a. Accumulated sick leave entitlement (continued) credit, to a maximum of one-half a year's salary. Plan B accumulates at the rate of one day per month once the employees complete five years of service. The estimated liability at December 31, 2025 was $1,578,122 (2024 - $1,405,844) and is included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position in the Employee future benefits liabilties. (ii) Other During the 1993 fiscal year, the Municipality negotiated an agreement with all employees (except firefighters) to terminate the sick leave benefit plan which had been in effect for many years. The Municipality agreed to pay to those employees covered by the plan and who had at least five -years' service with the Municipality a cash equivalent of 50% of sick leave days accumulated to July 1, 1993 to a maximum of 120 days of salary. Remuneration for the buying out of sick days identified will be available to the employee at any time up to the time that the employee either leaves the Corporation or retires, at the rate of remuneration in effect at July 31, 1993. The estimated liability at December 31, 2025 amounted to $12,911 (2024 - $15,405) and is included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position in the Employee future benefits liabilities. b. Post -employment benefits - other The Municipality makes available to qualifying employees who retire before the age of 65 (firefighters - age 60) the opportunity of continuing their coverage for benefits such as medical (extended health), dental, and life insurance benefits. Coverage ceases at age 65. Dependent upon the eligibility, the cost of this coverage may be a shared responsibility between the Municipality and the retired employees. An actuarial valuation was performed as at December 31, 2025 based on data as at the valuation date and plan provisions. The accrued benefit obligation and net benefit costs (i.e. the expense) for the 2025 fiscal year end was determined by this valuation. The significant actuarial assumptions employed for the valuation are as follows: (i) Discount rate will be 4.10% per annum, raising to 4.30% in 2026. (ii) Future inflation rates will be 3.75% for 2026, and 3.25% thereafter (iii) Dental cost trend rates will be 3.30% in fiscal 2025 and will increase to 4.0% for 2027 through 2030. (iv) Extended health care trend rates will be 6.58% in fiscal 2025; and remain stable at that level through to 2030.

Pension agreements The Municipality makes contributions to the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement Fund ("OMERS"). OMERS is a multi -employer defined benefit pension plan which provides pensions for employees of Ontario municipalities, local boards, public utilities and school boards. The pension plan is financed by equal contributions from participating employers and employees, and by the investment earnings of the fund. The most recent actuarial valuation of the Plan was conducted at December 31, 2025. The results of this valuation disclosed total going concern actuarial obligations of $151,365 million with respect to benefits accrued for service with actuarial net assets at that date of $150,043 million indicating an actuarial deficit of $1,322 million. Because OMERS is a multi -employer plan, any Plan surpluses or deficits are the joint responsibility of Ontario municipal organizations and their employees. As a result the Municipality does not recognize any share of the Plan surplus or deficit. The Municipality recognizes the expense related to this plan as contributions are made.

Guarantees In the normal course of business, the Municipality enters into agreements which contain guarantees. The Municipality's primary guarantees are as follows: (i) The Municipality has provided indemnities under lease agreements for the use of various facilities or land. Under the terms of these agreements the Municipality agrees to indemnify the counterparties for various items including, but not limited to, all liabilities, losses, suits, and damages arising during, on or after the term of the agreement. The maximum amount of any potential future payment cannot be reasonably estimated. (ii) The Municipality indemnifies employees and elected officials for various items including, but not limited to, all costs to settle suits or actions due to association with the Municipality, subject to certain restrictions. The Municipality has purchased liability insurance to mitigate the cost of any potential future suits or actions. The term of the indemnification is not explicitly defined, but is limited to the period over which the indemnified party served as an employee or elected official of the Municipality. The maximum amount of any potential future payment cannot be reasonably estimated. (iii) The Municipality has entered into agreements that may include indemnities in favour of third parties, such as purchase and sale agreements, confidentiality agreements, engagement letters with advisors and consultants, outsourcing agreements, leasing contracts, information technology agreements and service agreements. These indemnification agreements may require the Municipality to compensate counterparties for losses incurred by the counterparties as a result of breaches in representation and regulations or as a result of litigation claims or statutory sanctions that may be suffered by the counterparty as a consequence of the transaction. The terms of these indemnities are not explicitly defined and the maximum amount of any potential reimbursement cannot be reasonably estimated. The nature of these indemnification agreements prevents the Municipality from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum exposure due to the difficulties in assessing the amount of liability which stems from the unpredictability of future events and the unlimited coverage offered to counterparties. Historically, the Municipality has not made any significant payments under such or similar indemnification agreements and therefore no amount has been accrued in these consolidated financial statements with respect to these agreements. 19. Tangible capital assets The continuity of the historical cost and accumulated amortization for various categories of tangible capital assets can be found in Schedule 1. Further information relating to tangible capital assets is as follows: a. Contributed tangible capital assets The Municipality of Clarington records all tangible assets contributed by an external party at Page 208 34 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2025 19. Tangible capital assets (continued) a. Contributed tangible capital assets (continued) fair value on the earlier of the date received or of the transfer of risk and responsibility. Typical examples are roadways, parks, land, and storm sewer lines installed by a developer as part of a subdivision agreement. For subdivision assets, the recorded date is considered to be the date of acceptance with the exclusion of streetlights with the recorded date as the date of completion. In 2025, there were contributed assets of $7,430,765 (2024 - $9,088,680). b. Works of Art and Historical Treasures The Municipality has one historical collection. The Clarington Museums and Archives collection is currently insured for $287,800. Also included in historical treasures are the cenotaphs located in Bowmanville, Newcastle, Orono and Newtonville. Due to the rural history, there are several abandoned cemeteries located throughout the Municipality. All associated physical items, including historical signs and cairns, or concrete structures build for old headstones, are considered a historical treasure. 20.

Report To: Council Date of Meeting: June 22, 2026 Report Number: PUB -005-26 Authored By: Slav Potrykus, Traffic Engineering Supervisor, Public Works Submitted By: Lee -Ann Reck, Deputy CAO, Public Services Reviewed By: Mary -Anne Dempster, CAO By-law Number: Resolution Number: File Number: Report Subject: Lovers Lane Traffic Report Recommendations: 1. That Report PUB -005-26, and any related delegations or communication items, be received; 2. That Council approve the reduction of the posted speed limit on Lovers Lane to 30 km/h; 3. That the By-law attached to Report PUB -005-26, as Attachment 1, be approved; and 4. That all interested parties listed in Report PUB -005-26, be advised of Council's decision. Page 221 Municipality of Clarington Page 2 Report PUB -005-26 Report Overview This report addresses resident concerns raised during a delegation at the June 1, 2026 General Government Committee meeting. While many traffic calming measures provide delegated authority to the Deputy CAO of Public Services, the recommended reduction in speed requires Council approval. Staff require additional time to work with residents and the Region of Durham and analyze data to implement additional traffic calming measures to full address resident concerns. 1. Background 1.1 On June 1, 2026, a delegation of residents from Lovers Lane presented their concerns at the General Governance Committee meeting. These concerns included inappropriate speeds, unsafe pedestrian conditions, and cut through traffic. The delegation members requested measures be considered to address the concerns. 1.2 Arising out of the delegation, the General Government Committee passed the following Resolution #GG-098-26: That the Delegation by Noel Gamble and James Hogle, Regarding a Request for a Reduction in Speed and No Entry Signage on Lovers Lane, Bowmanville, be received with thanks.; and That Staff conduct a traffic study, implement any short term and long term changes necessary, including but not limited to a speed limit reduction. 1.3 Lovers Lane is a paved public street in central Bowmanville and runs east -west between Liberty Street and Centre Street. The total roadway width is 4.5 meters and there are no pedestrian facilities along its length. 1.4 During the 2011 reconstruction project, curbs were added to assist with drainage and to preserve adjacent private yards. There were no other opportunities to improve the overall operation of the street. The speed limit remained at 50 km/h, as the Ontario Highway Traffic Act (HTA) at that time did not allow for municipal speed reductions below the statutory limit. 1.5 Although Lovers Lane is open to two-way traffic, it does not provide sufficient width to operate as such, and conflicts often occur when two or more vehicles must pass each other. Vehicles have also been observed to reverse onto Liberty Street, after being forced out by an eastbound travelling vehicle. Page 222 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Report PUB -005-26 1.6 Pedestrians of all ages, including students from the three nearby schools along Liberty Street and Church Street frequently use Lovers Lane as their commute route, due to its appeal as a quiet laneway. Any vehicles passing pedestrians along the street often do so at a very close distance. 1.7 Although the traffic volumes are low, cut through traffic accounts for a significant portion of the overall traffic. It appears that many of the drivers who cut through, are familiar with the limitations of Lovers Lane, and do so as quickly as possible to reach the end of the street to avoid being blocked in. 2. Current Status 2.1 Staff engaged with the residents prior to their delegation to Council and began a robust review of the street operation. A preliminary traffic data collection and a site observation were conducted to identify challenges and validate resident concerns. At this time, staff initiated discussions with the Region of Durham to review the observed undesired and unsafe vehicle maneuvers at the intersection of Lovers Lane and Liberty Street. 2.2 Residents and staff identified challenges associated with the current statutory speed limit of 50 km/h. Staff reviewed applicable road design and operational guidance, including the Transportation Association of Canada (TAC) Geometric Design Guide for Canadian Roads, which emphasises aligning roadway geometry with appropriate operating speeds. Staff also considered the 2017 amendment to the Ontario Highway Traffic Act, which authorized municipalities to establish reduced speed limits based on roadway geometry and surrounding conditions. 2.3 Based on this review, staff recommend that Council approve a reduction in the speed limit on Lovers Lane from 50 km/hr to 30 km/hr. The constrained roadway width, absence of pedestrian infrastructure, and observed operating characteristics indicate that a reduced speed limit is appropriate and consistent with applicable design Guidance. Staff will continue to analyse supporting data, which is being collected over the next several weeks. This includes operational analysis during peak and off peak daytime hours, pedestrian conflicts, speeds and a cut through traffic study, as it directly relates to the Traffic Calming Policy. 2.4 Staff are also preparing an Open House event to invite the residents for discussions about the current and future operation of Lovers Lane. This is planned to take place on June 30, 2026. Page 223 Municipality of Clarington Page 4 Report PUB -005-26 3. Next Steps 3.1 If approved by Council, staff will immediately implement the speed reduction and complete appropriate signage of the reduction. Once implemented, staff will continue further analysis and engagement with resident. 3.2 Staff are preparing an Open House event to continue to engage the residents of Lovers Lane. This will provide an opportunity to gain input on the current and future operation of Lovers Lane. This is planned to take place on June 30, 2026, and staff are in the process of inviting residents. 3.3 Staff will continue to collect and analyze supporting data over the coming weeks, including traffic operations during peak and off-peak periods, pedestrian conflict, vehicle speed and cut through traffic in accordance with the Traffic Calming Policy. In addition to the recommended speed reduction, staff will continue to assess detailed operational condition to determine next steps. Staff have initiated consultation with the Region of Durham regarding turn restrictions and will advance these discussions upon completion of the data analysis. 4. Financial Considerations The proposed speed limit reduction on Lovers Lane will result in the installation of four speed limit signs. The installation will be included in the Public Works Traffic Division current operating budget, no additional funds are required. 5. Strategic Plan This action falls under the Strategic Plan section C.2 Residents are Safe and Healthy. 6. Climate Change Not Applicable. 7. Concurrence Not Applicable. Page 224 Municipality of Clarington Page 5 Report PUB -005-26 8. Conclusion It is respectfully recommended that the speed limit on Lovers Lane be reduced to 30 km/h. Staff will continue to analyze the street operation and continue to engage with residents of Lovers Lane to assess the most appropriate course of action aside from the speed reduction and implement measures through the delegated authority under the Traffic Calming Policy.

Page 228 Municipality of Clarington Page 2 Report PUB -007-26 Report Overview Staff recommends that Council approve the Diane Hamre Recreation Complex as an emergency evacuation site for St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Elementary School in the event of a localized emergency. 1. Background 1.1 Staff received a written request from Brittany Crowley, Vice Principal of St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Elementary School (Attachment 1), seeking permission to use the Diane Hamre Recreation Complex in Newcastle as a temporary evacuation location for students and staff in the event of a localized emergency at the school. 1.2 Since 2004, Council has approved several similar requests from various organizations. Community Services staff assess each proposed location's capacity and ability to accommodate evacuees and provide Council with a recommendation on the number of people that can be safely managed at each site. 1.3 Staff also conduct annual follow-ups with approved locations to confirm the current number of evacuees and whether there is an ongoing need for the approved site. 1.4 To date the following active locations have been approved: Dr. Ross Tilley Public School Ultimate School Agers .YEN!lII Mu Bowmanville Indoor Soccer (on -hold during construction) Courtice Community Complex White Cliffe Terrace Courtice Community Complex P.R.Y.D.E. Learning Centres Inc. Diane Hamre Recreation Complex Dr. Ross Tilley YMCA Child Care Centre Garnet B. Rickard Recreation Complex Kingsway Arms (now Seasons Clarington) Garnet B.

This would provide a safe location for groups to arrange child pick-up or alternative accommodations for senior residents. Page 229 Municipality of Clarington Page 3 Report PUB -007-26 2. Program 2.1 The Vice Principal submitted this request at the direction of the Peterborough Victoria Northumberland and Clarington Catholic District School Board (PVNCCDSB) Superintendent, who has asked all schools to confirm an emergency evacuation site. 2.2 The school is requesting approval to use the Diane Hamre Recreation Complex as a temporary evacuation location for 620 students and 59 staff in the event of an emergency. 2.3 In the event of a large-scale emergency, any Municipal, Regional, or Provincial Emergency Measures Plan would take precedence over this approval. 2.4 Use of the facility as an emergency evacuation site would remain subject to facility availability and the operation of municipal programs and services. 3. Financial Considerations Not Applicable. 4. Strategic Plan C.2.5: Residents are safe and healthy: Support the proactive management of community safety and well-being by prioritizing initiatives to improve community safety and well-being. 5. Climate Change Not Applicable. 6. Concurrence Not Applicable. 7. Conclusion It is respectfully recommended that Council approve the staff recommendation to designate the facility as an emergency evacuation location. If approved, Community Services staff will work with school administration to help should the need for evacuation arise.

The subject property contains a one -and -a -half storey, brick building, constructed circa 1875. Physical/Design Value 75 Wellington Street has design value as a representative example of a residential building constructed in a subtype of Gothic Revival architecture style, known as Gothic/Ontario Cottage design. The one -and -a -half -storey, brick building includes a side gable roof with overhanging eaves and a high-pitched central gable peak finished with decorative vergeboard and finial which are key characteristic of the Gothic/Ontario Cottage design. Similarly, the symmetrical and balanced three -bay facade exhibits typical massing and decorative elements associated with the Gothic/Ontario Cottage. The segmentally arched window openings with brick voussoirs and the centered rectangular door opening with classically inspired surrounds are additional features representative of the Gothic/Ontario Cottage aesthetic. Contextual Value 75 Wellington Street is important in supporting the 19th and early 20th century residential area associated with the historic town of Bowmanville. The lot lines and block layout of the historic town was well established in the late -19th century and reflected in the commercial core found along King Street and the large presence of residences located along several side streets at this time. The development of commercial and residential area during this time played a significant role in the social and economic development and growth of the Bowmanville. The location of the subject property along Wellington Street supports the character of the streetscape and the local context. Located off or parallel to King Street, the buildings in the historical town located along the side streets are comprised of predominantly one to two -and - a -half storey residences, primarily brick construction and often showcase ornate details. 75 Wellington Street exhibits, massing, style, and decorative details consistent with character of the historic town of Bowmanville. It is notable the property was once owned by the White Family.

Page 240 Schedule 'A' To By-law 2026-064 Statement of Significance and List of Character Defining Features Description of Property 7755 Old Scugog Road, known locally as the McLaughlin Shed, is located on the east side of Old Scugog Road in the village of Enniskillen. The property consists of a one -storey, wood frame shed, built in 1869. Historical Value 7755 Old Scugog Road has historical value for its direct association with Robert McLaughlin and the McLaughlin Carriage Works. Robert McLaughlin was born in Cavan Township in 1836, and moved to Tyrone, in Darlington Township, in 1837. After building several carriages in the drive shed of his family farm during the 1860s, Robert McLaughlin moved to Enniskillen in 1869, and opened the Enniskillen Carriage Works on Old Scugog Road, across from his family residence. A historical plaque and commemorative shed (with a carriage within) are currently located near the original location of the driving shed on Concession Road 7. The family was actively involved in Enniskillen's daily village life and especially tied to the Presbyterian church where Robert McLaughlin taught Sunday School. The wooden outbuilding was part of the original carriage operations and served McLaughlin's business as a storage shed. By 1878, the continued success of McLaughlin's business necessitated its move to Oshawa. Oshawa's location on Lake Ontario provided access to the Grand Trunk Railway which was instrumental in the business' success. McLaughlin's success as a carriage builder continued into the 20th century, and by 1907, an automotive branch of the company had been established by Robert's two sons, George and Sam McLaughlin. The company was called the McLaughlin Motor Car Company and proved so successful that Robert McLaughlin discontinued the carriage business entirely in 1915 in order to devote the company solely to making cars. In 1918, the company became General Motors Canada. Robert McLaughlin died in November 1921, of colon cancer, and is buried in Oshawa. The wooden storage building is the last vestige of Robert McLaughlin's Enniskillen Carriage Works and showcases a painted sign commemorating its former use and connection to the McLaughlin family. The sign was placed on the building in 2005, and was donated by Edgar and Annie Wright, two long-term residents of Enniskillen. Contextual Value Known locally as "the McLaughlin shed," the building is among the only remaining evidence of Robert McLaughlin's Enniskillen Carriage Works and serves as a visual and historical landmark in the community of Enniskillen. The shed highlights the connection with a painted sign commemorating its former use and local connection to the McLaughlin family.

Report To: Council From: Darryl Lyons, Deputy CAO, Planning and Infrastructure Services Date: June 22, 2026 Memo #: Memo -004-26 File No.: ZBA2022-0023 Re: Update to Attachment 2 of PDS-063-26 On June 15, 2026, staff presented Report PDS-063-26 to the Planning and Development Committee (PDC). The report recommended approval of applications for an Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment to facilitate a proposed Draft Plan of Subdivision at the northeast corner of Bowmanville Avenue and Longworth Avenue within the Brookhill Secondary Plan Area. The proposed subdivision includes 27 single detached dwellings, 10 semi-detached dwellings, 59 townhouse units, natural heritage system blocks, a stormwater management pond, and a park block. Longworth Avenue is proposed to be realigned further south in accordance with the Brookhill Neighbourhood Secondary Plan. Staff recommended approval of the applications and brought forward a Zoning By-law (Attachment 2 to Report PDS-063-26) to implement the development as proposed. This recommendation was endorsed by Council at the Planning and Development Committee meeting on June 15, 2026. Following issuance of the PDC agenda, the applicant identified concerns with several zoning provisions, including but not limited to building height, lot frontage and lot coverage. In response, staff met with the applicant on June 12, June 15, and June 17, 2026, and also met internally on several occasions to review and evaluate the requested changes. Through this process, staff have refined the Zoning By-law to address these concerns while @ maintaining the overall intent of the approved development. The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington, 40 Temperance Street, Bowmanville, ON L1 C 3A6 1-800-563-1195 1 Local: 905-623-3379 1 info@clarington.net I www.clarington.net Page 267 Page 2 Through this process, staff made refinements to the proposed Zoning By-law. These revisions are largely technical in nature and introduce targeted flexibility to respond to design and market considerations, while maintaining the overall intent of the draft plan and Secondary Plan framework Summary of Key Revisions to the Zoning By-law Key refinements to the Zoning By-law include: • Introduction of provisions allowing a portion of lots to have reduced frontages within defined ranges to improve subdivision design flexibility. • Clarification of lot coverage permissions, including allowing certain unenclosed porches and balconies to be excluded from coverage calculations, subject to size limits. _ • Refinement of height and massing provisions to support a range of built forms consistent with the intent of the Secondary Plan. ■ • Minor refinements to yard requirements and permissions for projections (e.g., steps and porches) to facilitate functional and attractive site design. • Adjustments to driveway widths, garage placement, and parking provisions while maintaining appropriate minimum soft landscaping requirements in front yards. • Updates to townhouse standards, including built form permissions, amenity space, and design requirements. ■ • Clarification of conditions for removal of the Holding (H) symbol, including road network and servicing requirements. • Technical updates to improve clarity, consistency, and overall implementation of the zoning framework. Conclusion In staff's opinion, the revised Zoning By-law continues to represent good planning and urban design, maintaining the overall density, land use structure, and vision for the Brookhill Secondary Plan Area, while introducing appropriate flexibility. The updated Zoning By-law has been incorporated into this agenda, presented as a revised Attachment 2 to Report PDS-063-26, and forms part of tonight's Council recommendation for consideration and adoption.

Between the issuance of the PDC agenda and the Council meeting scheduled for June 22, 2026, staff met with the applicant on June 12, June 15, June 17, and June 19, 2026, The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington, 40 Temperance Street, Bowmanville, ON L1 C 3A6 1-800-563-1195 1 Local: 905-623-3379 1 info@clarington.net I www.clarington.net Page 279 Page 2 and also met internally on several occasions to review and evaluate the requested changes. Through this process, staff made refinements to the proposed Zoning By-law. These revisions are largely technical in nature and introduce targeted flexibility to respond to design and market considerations, while maintaining the overall intent of the draft plan and Secondary Plan framework, where applicable. Summary of Key Revisions to the Zoning By-law Key refinements to the Zoning By-law include: • Maintenance of the maximum proportion of reduced frontage (9.75 metre) lots at 45%, while permitting enhanced flexibility in housing design through the ability to accommodate two -car garage models on these lots. . Implementation of tapered driveway widths for reduced frontage lots, with a maximum width of 5.8 metres at the dwelling reducing to 4.6 metres at the lot line, to support streetscape quality, increase soft landscaping within the boulevard, and maintain on -street parking availability. • Clarification and refinement of lot coverage and built form permissions to ensure functional dwelling design. • Updates to townhouse and medium density zone standards, including frontage, yard, and density provisions to support coordinated block development. • Technical updates to improve clarity, consistency, and overall implementation of the zoning framework. Matters Reviewed and Resolved Following several internal discussions, staff determined that the recommendations below represent the most appropriate and balanced solution for Council's consideration. • Percentage of Reduced Frontage Lots: The applicant initially requested that up to 55% of lots be permitted at the reduced 9.75 metre frontage. Through further collaboration with the applicant, it was identified that the ability to offer two -car garage models on the 9.75 metre lots was of greater importance than increasing the overall proportion of reduced frontage lots. The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington, 40 Temperance Street, Bowmanville, ON L1 C 3A6 1-800-563-1195 1 Local: 905-623-3379 1 info@clarington.net I www.clarington.net Page 280 Page 3 In response, the applicant was amenable to maintaining the existing maximum of 45% for reduced frontage lots in order to limit the extent of this housing product within the subdivision. Staff are supportive of this approach, as it balances the applicant's objectives with maintaining the planned character of the neighbourhood while allowing for a more targeted introduction of the revised lot and garage configuration. • Driveway Widths and Parking Configuration: The applicant had requested permission to provide 5.8 metre driveways and double -car garages on reduced frontage lots, along with an increase in the maximum permitted garage width from 55% to 60% of the lot frontage. Through further discussions and collaboration with the applicant, staff have worked towards a solution that addresses both market preferences and municipal objectives. As a result, staff are now comfortable supporting the proposed 9.75 metre frontage lots, up to a maximum of 45% of the lots as well as the associated wider garage widths. This support is subject to a condition that the driveway be tapered from the garage to the lot line, with a maximum width of 5.8 metres at the dwelling reducing to 4.6 metres at the lot line. This approach allows for the inclusion of additional soft landscaping within the municipal boulevard, helping to maintain a more balanced and visually appealing streetscape while still accommodating functional parking needs. In staff's opinion, this revised approach provides an appropriate balance between accommodating on -site parking demand and preserving key streetscape and neighbourhood design objectives. Conclusion In staff's opinion, the revised Zoning By-law continues to represent good planning and urban design, maintaining the overall density, land use structure, and vision for the Southeast Courtice Secondary Plan Area (where applicable), while introducing appropriate flexibility. The updated Zoning By-law has been incorporated into this agenda, presented as a revised Attachment 1 to Report PDS-064-26, and forms part of tonight's Council recommendation for consideration and adoption.
