1. Background
1.1 Subsequent to the enactment of the Development Charges Act, the Municipality has
retained the service of Hemson Consultant to prepare the required Background
Study. Over this past year, the consultant has been working closely with the
Steering Committee, comprising of senior municipal staff, including the Library
Director.
REPORT NO.:Admin. 19-99
1.2 On April 29 1999, an information session was held with members of Council and
on May 19 1999, a similar information session was held with those individuals who
have previously requested to be notified. At this latter information session six (6)
individuals attended, and they primarily represent the development industry and
planning and engineering consultants. The purpose of this information session is to
enable the consultant to present the background information related to the study so
that any technical questions from the development industries can be addressed prior
to the statutory public meeting.
1.3 Holding of the statutory public meeting is a requirement of the Development
Charges Act. Notices were placed in all local newspapers and by personal mail to
those individuals who previously requested to be notified. The purpose of the
meeting is to allow the general public to voice their concerns or comments to the
proposed Development Charges By-Law prior to its passage. To assist the general
public in the understanding of the subject matter prior to the public meeting, the
Development Charges Background Study was released on May 26, 1999 in
compliance with the legislation. Copy of the said Study has been distributed to
Council members. A representative from Hemson Consultant will be making a
presentation at the commencement of the public meeting.

The $6,541 charge for a single semi-detached dwelling unit is $1,410 higher than the
current charge of $5131. In comparing the proposed charge to that of the current charge,
one should be cognizant of the following facts:
a) the rules of calculating charges have changed substantially from the previous
3
REPORT NO.:Admin. 19-99
legislation;
b) the current charge has not been indexed for about 5 years.
c) The previous charge did not collect the maximum allowable under the existing Act.
d) Provincial grants or subsidies are no longer available to reduce the charge.
2.2 The recommended municipal wide non-residential charges are as follows:
Currently the non-residential portion of growth-related capital program is funded by
general tax revenue and sources other than development charges. In order to ensure the
general tax payer would not subsidize capital works resulting from growth, it is

recommended that the municipality introduce charges for non-residential development.
2.3 With respect to charges of electrical service of the service area covered by
Clarington Hydro Commission, these charges will be applicable only for a short
time until hydro amalgamation is finalized. Preliminary discussion with a
Clarington Hydro official indicates that implementation of an electricity charge
probably would not be necessary.
2.4 The effective date of the New Development Charges By-Law is proposed to be
September 1 1999 despite the fact that the Municipality could make the new by-law
effective on the day of passing, which is scheduled for July 5 1999. This allows the
development industries and municipal staff to clear up the outstanding building
permit applications during the period between July 5 and September 1. Possibilities
exist that the Municipality could be faced with a large volume of permit
applications prior to September 1 to take advantage of the current lower charge. In
order to avoid potential disputes as to how the new rates are applied to permit
applications in process, staff recommend that 4:00 p.m., August 27 1999, be the last
day the Municipality would apply the current charges to all permit applications
received on or before the said time and date, provided the permit applications are
complete and meet the requirements of the Municipality, including payment of all
necessary fees, completeness of plan and drawings, etc.

3. CONCLUSION
3.1 Attached hereto is a copy of the draft Development Charges By-Law.
3.2 Staff recommend that all comments made by the delegation and any subsequent
submissions be referred to staff for review, in conjunction with the finalization of
the Development Charges By-Law. In this regard, staff will bring forth a report for
Committee and Council's consideration on July 5 1999.
