**Background:**
Development Cost Charges (DCCs) are fees collected on new development to assist local governments in paying the capital costs of installing certain local government services, the installation of which is directly or indirectly affected by the development of lands and/or the alteration/extension of buildings.
The Local Government Act permits DCCs to be established for providing, constructing, altering, or expanding facilities related to the following local government services:
transportation
water
sanitary sewer
storm drainage
parks and open space
fire protection facilities (fire halls)
The District of Lantzville has an existing Development Cost Charge Bylaw (BYLAW NO. 154, 2018) which was adopted in January 2019.
Since this bylaw was last updated, construction costs have increased with inflation, and infrastructure needs for the municipality have evolved. Council embarked on a process to update the Development Cost Charge Bylaw in 2024, which started with a comprehensive review and update of the background report that informs which infrastructure projects are included and estimates costs.
**Technical Report and Updates:**
Koers & Associates Engineers was retained to develop an update to the 2018 report, which was presented to Council at the July 16, 2025 Committee of the Whole Meeting
As a result of feedback received and Council direction, an updated background report has been prepared: November 20, 2025 Development Cost Charge Bylaw No. 154 (2018) Updated Technical Report
The following development cost charges are proposed:

A draft Bylaw was presented to Council for consideration in Fall 2025.
Bylaw 422 - Development Cost Charge Bylaw
