Report#:----TR-1-0-9 4- File#: By-Law#
Subject: 1994 CURRENT BUDGET AND 1994 CAPITAL BUDGET
AND POUR YEAR FORECAST
Recoppeygat Aybectfully recommended that the General Purpose and
Administration Committee recommend to Council the following:
1 . THAT report TR-10-94 be received for information;
2. THAT the 1994 Capital Budget (Schedule #1) and the 1994
Current Budget (Schedule #2) be approved, as outlined in

BACKGROUND
1 . Proposed Overall Increase:
1 .1 Budgets
The proposed 1994 Current Budget and 1994 Capital Budget and four
year forecast are presented for Council 's consideration.
1.2 Mill Rate/Garbage Plat Rate
The 1994 mill rate for municipal purposes only, has been
calculated at 0.0% as follows:
Municipal Mill Rate 1994 1993 Increase
Proposed Actual (Decrease)
Residential 137.56 137.48 0.05%
Commercial 161 .84 161 . 74 0.05%
Garbage Flat Rate $140.00 $145.00 (3.44) %
Overall - Average Household Decrease (0. 83) %
2
TR-10-94 Page 2
These calculations are based on the attached capital and current
budgets (Schedule #1 and Schedule #2 respectively) . The combined
impact on the average household tax bill would be a decrease of
approximately ($4 . 75) for municipal services. The Regional and School
Board taxes are independently established and are not available until
approximately May 1994.
1 .3 External Budcrets
The following externally and independently prepared budgets have been
submitted for Council consideration. In keeping with the direction of
Council and the 1994 budget guidelines the requests have been
incorporated into the budget at the recommended values which reflect a
0. % increase over the 1993 amount approved by Council .

(1) Request included $15,000 tax impact; the recommendation is to
take this amount from the Reserve Fund.
(2) Request included Courtice Community Centre and Tax Levy draw of
$355,000. Recommendation to remove Courtice Complex for
subsequent report, draw system upgrade $50,000 and western
collection 60,000 from existing Lot Levy Reserve Fund. This
leaves the tax impact at $5000 for 1994. j
The Library Capital Budget as submitted is included in the executive
summary for Council 's consideration. The budget as presented includes
a provision and request for the Courtice Community Centre and a
significant impact on the tax levy. The Library Director was
contacted and it was suggested that the Courtice component be removed
and considered under a separate report which is forthcoming and will
deal with the entire project comprehensively. The above recommended
adjustment to reduce the tax levy and draw the required funds from the
existing lot levy reserve funds for the projects detailed on the 1994
capital budget submission was also discussed with the Director.

TR-10-94 Page 3
The Museums have been receiving transfers totalling $22,000
(Bowmanville 15,000 and Clarke $7,000) into their respective Reserve
Funds for approximately the past seven years. These original
transfers proposed by the Museums for a limited time and were
specifically for major construction projects which have not
materialized as originally envisioned. The time limit has been
surpassed on these contributions and as this is a direct impact on the
tax levy, the 1994 budget has been prepared without these transfers
into the reserve fund.
The impact of the draws on the applicable reserve fund balances for
the capital projects proposed are detailed in the executive summary.
2.0 Tax Impact
2.1 Historical Review
The Council 's commitment to the ratepayers of the Municipality of
Clarington is exemplified in the historical mill rates that have been
implemented over the past few years. Some of the more recent mill rate
increases, assessment growth figures, and household flat rate charges
for garbage are as follows:
Mill Rate Assessment Garbage
Increase % Growth % Flat Rate
1994 0.05 2.19 $ 140.00
1993 ( 0.05 ) 4.10 145.00
1992 1.4 5.60 145.00
1991 4.8 6.50 150.00
2.2 The 1994 Current Year Budgets
The recent years' capital and current budgets reflect the
Municipality's efforts to reduce, control and streamline expenditures
while at the same time adjusting for significant reductions in revenue
caused primarily by the following:
0 Provincial downloading through the "Expenditure Control Plan"
Social Contract Unconditional Grant reductions and the Provincial
Budget impact on items such as taxing insurance premiums. The
combined impact of the above for 1993 was approximately $500,000
of revenue loss and expenditure increases that were not
anticipated when the 1993 budget was prepared. These shortfalls
had to be made up in 1993 by efficiencies, savings, and
adjustments in other areas. In 1994 this reduction in revenue has
been built into the current budget.
• Reduction in interest income from consolidated investments due to
the overall drop in interest rates. This alone has contributed to
a reduction in revenue since 1990 of approximately $600,000.
1994 budget has accommodated a further anticipated reduction of
$250,000 from the 1993 budget value from this source of revenue.
. . .4
TR-10-94 Page 4
• Building permit revenue has reduced significantly since 1992 when
the Municipality realized in excess of $764,000 in revenue, to an
actual value of approximately $574,000 in 1993. This represents
an overall reduction in this major revenue source of
approximately $190,000.
One of the very few increasing revenue sources over the past several
years has been in the grant-in-lieu of taxes from Ontario Hydro.
With the completion of construction of the reactor buildings, the
Municipality has realized in excess of $400,000 from this avenue. It
should be acknowledged however, that the overall taxes paid by
government corporations as "grants-in-lieu" are at lower rates than
would otherwise be applied if commercial enterprises were occupying
the same extent of property.
The assessment growth within the Municipality has been declining over
the past four years, although not to the extent that it has been in
other areas within the Region. This is largely a result of the
economic climate, however there are positive indicators in 1994 with
the increase in Commercial assessment at 1 .4% for 1994 (versus 0.23%
in 1993) and the Business assessment at .33% (versus -1 . 18% in 1993) .
At the same time the residential assessment is not increasing as
rapidly at 2.38% in 1994 (versus 4.91% in 1993) . The residential
growth costs the Municipality in servicing the additional units with
roads, parks and other infrastructure requirements, and historically
the assessment growth translated to additional tax revenue has not
provided sufficient revenue to cover these servicing costs. As a
result this decrease rate of growth is also a positive sign overall .
3.0 Levels of Service
3.1 Contracting Out
As with the prior year, there are significant areas of service that
are currently being contracted out. These include garbage collection,
engineering design and consulting,g g g g, and most recently the grass cutting
in certain areas of the Municipality. The effectiveness of the grass
cutting tender awarded in 1993 will be discussed by the Director of
Community Services in his De p artmental
presentation to Council during
deliberations. As part of the ongoing effort to streamline services
and realize efficiencies, staff are continuing to explore the
alternatives of privatization of some services and will report to
Council as appropriate.
i
3.2 Social Contract
i
The Province has not provided direction or information with respect to
the impact of their Social Contract for 1994, however the initiatives
that were put forward in the Municipality's local agreements, such as
straight time payment for overtime hours, will continue and have been
accommodated in the 1994 budget. In accordance with the Ministry of
Municipal Affairs directive through the sectoral framework agreement,
the
. . .5
i
TR-10-94 Pane 5
Municipality has an obligation to mitigate days off as a cost saving
measure, and as a result no obligatory days off have been built into
the 1994 proposed budget.
The 1993 reduction in the unconditional grants of approximately
$400,0000 as a result of Social Contract has been anticipated in the
1994 budget and verbal indications from the Province are that the
Municipality need not anticipate further reductions at this point.
Staff will advise of any impact as confirmation is received from the
Province.
4.0 Reserve and Reserve Funds
The Public Works Department, Community Services and the Fire
Departments have again proposed fairly significant draws on the Lot
levy Reserve Funds to keep the capital impact on the tax levy at a
minimal level and at the same time continuing with the necessary
capital works. The proposed contributions and appropriations to these
funds as well as the financial category draws on the specific reserve
and reserve funds are presented together with anticipated balances in
the executive summary which accompanies the Budget documents.
5.0 Capital Projects
The capital works projects are reflected in detail in the proposed
Capital Budget for 1994 . The capital budgets for projects as they
relate more specifically to Public Works and Community Services are
supported by the Development Charges Report Documentation.
As Council is aware the Development Charge Policy Report identifies a
municipal contribution in excess of the existing tax base of
approximately $1 .2 million annually over the 10 year period in order
to implement the capital works projects. The 1994 current budget has,
as in the prior two years accommodated a significant transfer to the
Municipal Capital Works Program Reserve Fund ($425,000) to ensure the
continued commitment to the Capital Program.
The number of residential units to date falls short of the number
anticipated in the Development Charge Policy Report, however a review
of the expenditures to date on the projects identified in the policy
Report will be undertaken by Staff in 1994 in anticipation of an
update to the by-law in 1995, and any appropriate adjustments or
revisions will be recommended to Council at that time.
6.0 Operations Budget
6.1 Fire Headquarters Staffing
The Ontario Hydro/Municipal Agreement provided that the Municipality
hire an additional eight firefighters in 1994 in order to accommodate
primary response by January 1, 1995.
TR-10-94 Page 6
The contribution from Ontario Hydro to the operations cost of
providing fire services is suggested to potentially cover a ten year
window, however in order to provide a steady impact on the tax base
such that in year eleven the impact is not overwhelming, it is
recommended that the budget accommodate approximately $80,000 to
$100,000 in each of the ten years as a tax impact. This would
translate to an approximate increase of 1 .0% on the household tax bill
or approximately $4 .00 (based on an average tax bill of $426. for a
home of 3,100 assessment value) .
It is anticipated that the hiring of the additional men would take
place on a staggered basis in the early fall of 1994 and as such the
actual costs for 1994 are approximated at $125,000. This value has
not been incorporated into the 1994 budget and could be imposed in
1994 to provide the first year impact approximateey 1 .2% on the tax
levy.
Alternatively, if Council considers the maximum impact for 1994 tax to
be 0%, direction could be provided on either of the following two
options:
1 . Draw the funds from the Ontario Hydro Escrow Reserve Funds for
1994 and continue with the impact at 1 .0% for the remaining nine
years.
2. Add the 1994 impact to the future nine years and have an
approximate impact of 1 . 11% spread evenly over the remaining nine
years.
The Fire Chief has prepared a report to accompany the 1994 Budget
which addresses the hiring practices for the Department.
6.2 Legal Fees
As identified in the 1994 Budget Guidelines, the legal fee budget has
been reallocated to each individual department as they were in the
past. This allows more direct control and accountability by each
Department for the legal charges they incur. The total fees are
accumulated in the executive summary under the expenditure by object
section.
The Unclassified Administration section of the budget accommodates
$90,000 for all non-departmental legal fees, and with the exception of
significant issues such as Port Granby, which would be brought to
Council as separate issues for funding consideration, this budget
provision is considered to be adequate.
6.3 Staffing and Negotiations
The proposed 1994 budget does not suggest any increases to the staff
complement in any department.
. . . 7
i
PR-10-94 Page 7
The 1993194 Fire Association Collective Agreement has not yet been
addressed and will likely be negotiated in 1994 and thereafter
recommended to Council . In addition the 1995196 Collective Agreement
Contract negotiations with C. U.P.E. for Inside and Outside employees
will begin in late 1994. As a result the 1994 budget accommodates
some funding in this area for labour relations legal fees.
6.4 Employment Equity
As Council is aware, the Employment Equity legislation received royal
assent in December 1993 and is now law. As a result the Municipality
will be required- to implement a plan and file it with the Province
within eighteen months. This will require a similar process to that
taken with the Pay Equity Legislation and a recommendation to Council
on how best to proceed will be forthcoming with the release of the
applicable regulations. The 1994 budget does provide for the
incorporation of a human resources application on the payroll system
in order to accommodate the senses/status requirements of Employment
Equity.
6.5 Employee Assistance Program
The 1994 budget provides for $5,000 toward an Employee Assistance
Program. It is proposed to be incorporated into the Health and Safety
program on a joint cost basis with the Union.
This program may provide many employees with assistance in advance of
problems developing which ultimately affect performance and
efficiency. It is considered that the implementation of this type of
program will ultimately benefit both the Municipality and the
employees.
6.6 Debt Charges
The Municipality is now into it 's sixth full year of annual debenture
charges associated with the two major projects, the Arena and the
Administrative Centre. The total related debt charges approximate
$247,000 for principal and $495,000 for interest, to total
approximately $742,000. These charges will be completed in the year
2003, and are approximately the same total charge each year. The
Municipality is currently at approximately 20% debt capacity and
therefore in a relatively healthy position.
7.0 Garbage Charges
The flat rate garbage charge includes collection, which is a Municipal
charge, as well as recycling and disposal tipping fees which are
Regional charges. The Region has verbally confirmed that the tipping
fees for recycling and disposal will remain at the 1993 value of $70.
per tonne.
. . . 8
I
j
TR-10-94 Page 8
As a result it is recommended that the flat rate charge be reduced to
$140. per household from the 1993 value of $145. This represents a
decrease of -3.45% .
The flat rate charge includes, as in prior years, a transfer to the
reserve funds for Municipal purposes in order to maintain the
household charge at a reasonable, non-volatile rate for current and
future years. This fund is also used to contribute to the general
mill rate for administrative costs associated with overall
i environmental issues, as is reflected in the reserve fund section of
the executive summary.
8.0 1993 Surplus
8.1
The budget process takes place prior to the year end financial
statements and audit for the 1993 year end and it is therefore
premature to estimate surplus/deficit position. Council will be
notified of any surplus or deficit position in a subsequent report
which deals with year end transfers to Reserves and Reserve Funds.
The prior year surplus available and applied to the 1994 mill rate
calculations is approximately $860,000. This is another area of
reduction in that the 1993 mill rate calculation had the advantage of
$1 million available to offset the Tax Levy.
9.0 Referrals to Budget
There were a number of items referred to the 1994 budget discussions.
The following list identifies these items and their suggested
disposition:
1 . Grant Requests: Request Disposition
i) Cystic Fibrosis Tournament Hall & Diamonds .include as a

wish to add reference to use of municipal credit cards to the
by-law.
* These items are listed on the agenda for the Special G.P.A.
Budget Meeting as unfinished business.
10.0 Conclusion and Final Comments
10.1
In conclusion, the intent of the 1994 budget presentation has been to
provide a comprehensive package that focuses on resource sharing
the provision of an efficient level of service through an approach
that continues to be cost effective. it should be noted that there
may be minor adjustments reflected in the final budget which were too
late for printing in the draft document. Any changes will not adjust
the mill rate impact as they have been built into the overall
calculations for this report. in addition some 1993 Actual values may
not be final as year end adjustments for financial statements etc. are
ongoing at this time.
10.2
It is respectfully recommended that the proposed 1994 Capital and
Current budgets be approved and that the four year forecast be
endorsed in principle.

DELEGATIONS
The group is strongly in favour of hiring a Chief Administrative Officer as soon
as possible and suggested that the use of a professional executive search firm
would be appropriate. Mr. Patrick offered the assistance of the EDLT in any
way possible in the search for an Economic Development Officer.
Mr. Kevin Anyan, 36 King Street East, Bowmanville, L1C 1N2, addressed
Council in support of the proposed Smoking By-law 93-146. He indicated that
owners of licensed restaurants would prefer that the by-law not be passed,
however, they do appreciate the fact that social pressure is leading Council in
this matter. Mr. Anyan appreciates the input which was sought from business
owners and indicated that members of the B.I.A. are satisfied with the by-law,
however, are concerned that the implementation dates may be difficult to
meet.
Mr. and Mrs. Walter Pingle, 1805 Taunton Road, Hampton, LOB IJO, advised
prior to the meeting that they would not be in attendance.
Ms. Francine Nicholas, c/o The Sewing Shop, 113 King Street East, .
Bowmanville, L1C 1N4, appeared before Council on behalf of the Alliance
House Shelter for Abused Women and Children and advised Council that the
shelter is planning a benefit concert/fundraiser for the summer of 1994 and
requested that the rental fees be waived or that the municipality assist the
// group in working through the grant process.
Mr. Paul Westwood, c/o Duey's Taxi, 623 King Street East, Newcastle,
LIB IK7, addressed Council in opposition to the proposed Smoking By-law
93-146 as it relates to taxicabs. He suggested that, as the by-law will be
difficult to enforce in cabs, it should be left to the owner's discretion as to
whether smoking will be allowed or not.
Mr. Christopher Endras, 54 King Street East, Bowmanville, L1C 1N3, was
called but was not present.

Your Worship:
The Third Annual Canada Day Celebration preparations are already in progress.
The event is being organized by the Newcastle and Bowmanville Optimist Clubs
in association with the Durham Regional Police (Inspector Bruce Pugh -
Oshawa), and the Clarington Fire Department Station #2.
We are requesting that you consider funding for the amount of $5000.00
towards the purchase of a high hazard fireworks display (Federal Classification
7.2.2). This display will be one of the highlights of the Canada Day Celebration
being held at Clarke High School on July 1, 1994.
The activities for the evening include various children's games and the
opportunity for the children to meet their local Police Officers, Firefighters and
St. John's Ambulance personnel. The police cars, fire trucks and ambulances
will also be present for public viewing. There will be a barbecue and a D. J.
playing the latest hit songs for the enjoyment of young and old. The National
Anthem will be played before the firework display commences.
The Optimist Clubs are dedicated to this project as we feel it promotes
patriotism and encourages positive awareness of the police, fire and ambulance
services within the community. Moreover, it encourages family interaction and
community involvement.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if further clarification is need.ed...T..hank-...__._

Mr. Bob Engley, 73 Liberty Street North, Bowmanville, L1C 2L8, advised
Council that the slow pitch league is anticipating holding a tournament on July

Dear Madam Mayor:

JAN 1 2 1994
MUNICIPALITY OF CLAREN;TON
W:YOR'S OFFICE
The Bowmanville Recreational Hockey League makes a formal request to
use the hall at Bowmanville Arena for the annual awards presentation
on. May 15, 1994. .
For the past two years , our organization has used Bowmanville High
School and Orono Arena. The rental costs were substantially less but the
facilities were not as adequate for our purposes .
We represent over 675 players and their families as a non-profit
organization with a limited budget..' We rent a large portion of the
ice time in the Bowmanville facility for all these players . ,We feel
the awards should be held this same location. The hall has a large
seating capacity for players and families, has a stage for trophy
presentation and has congenial surroundings. It is the best location
.f
in Clarington for this important function.
Therefore, we request that the Town provide a grant of $440. 00 to .
defray the• cost of the hall rental for the B.R.H.L. Awards Day.
Please take this matter under advisement at your earliest convenience.
Please contact me with any concerns or questions and your reply.
Thank-you,
Sincerely,
Doug Harper, Vice President .BRHL
