2. New development cost charge bylaws are subject to "in-stream" provisions as determined by section 568 of the Local Government Act. DCC's are collected at the subdivision or building
permit stage. Projects that are in-stream (that is, an existing completed development, building, subdivision, or rezoning application with permit fees paid at the time the DCC Bylaw is in
effect) will not be charged provided that the related permits are approved within one year of the new DCC rate being adopted.
