4. DEFINITIONS
Active Retail/Commercial Ground Floor Use: means a non-residential use located on the ground floor of a building
that is physically designed and constructed to accommodate active, publicly accessible uses that contribute to street-
level animation and pedestrian activity. Eligible spaces may include: direct at-grade access from a public street or
publicly open space, a high level of ground floor transparency (e.g. minimum 60% glazing along the public frontage),
and finished ceiling heights and servicing capacity suitable for retail, food service, medical offices, or other active
commercial uses. Office, storage, or other non-active commercial configurations are not considered eligible. No
more than 900 square metres of active retail/commercial ground floor space per development project will be
considered.
Affordable Housing Unit: There are several ways affordable housing is defined by The Canada Mortgage and Housing
Corporation (CMHC) according to the available program and target population.
For the purposes of the Large-Scale Development Incentive Program, an affordable unit means a unit that complies
with a CMHC or provincial program for a minimum 10-year period tied to new construction of affordable housing
units, and for which scores a minimum of 10 points in Schedule C, under Housing Affordability.
Applicant: An individual, organization or business that submits a completed grant Application for consideration, in
accordance with the eligibility criteria and requirements set out in this policy and any associated program guidelines.
Application: A formal request made by an eligible Applicant, including all required documentation, and supporting
materials specified in the policy.
Building Permit: As defined in By-law BC-1 - A By-law Respecting the Construction, Repair and Demolition of
Buildings and Structures in The City of Saint John.
Building Permit Estimate: The total building permit estimate as defined in By-law BC-1, including multiple phased
permits.
Construction Start Date: The date on which physical site work commences for a project, as defined by the pouring
of footings and foundation walls.
Development Incentive Review Committee: An internal municipal committee composed of representatives from
planning and housing, finance, real estate, and other relevant departments, responsible for reviewing, evaluating,
and making recommendations on development incentive applications in accordance with this policy.
Financial Viability: The demonstration of sufficient resources and management to sustain the project plan and meet
obligations without undue reliance on additional external supports.
Grant Agreement: A legal agreement entered between the applicant and the municipality that outlines the terms,
conditions, obligations, and timelines under which a development incentive grant will be administered.
Grant Payment Start Date: The date on which the first disbursement of the grant is issued to the applicant,
contingent upon compliance with the conditions outlined in the Grant Agreement.
4
Incremental Tax Increase: The difference between the local tax collected in the year of application, prior to any
development occurring, and the first year of operation, after the re-assessment of the subject property.
Non-Residential: All other property except residentially assessed property. This includes commercial, industrial,
institutional, and mixed-use spaces where the residential component does not represent the primary use.
Penthouse: A residential unit above the highest full storey of a building and set back from the primary building
façade. A penthouse typically is differentiated from the main floors through architectural design, private outdoor
terrace space, and/or a larger floor area intended for luxury.
Three-Bedroom Unit: A residential unit containing three bedrooms, but which excludes a penthouse.
Total Building Cost: The full cost to construct the building from start of construction to occupancy, including all hard
costs (materials, labour, building systems, structured parking) and all soft costs (design and engineering fees,
contingency, financing costs, developer fees, and construction management). It does not include land acquisition
costs or HST.
Total Grant: The total grant per the executed Grant Agreement the Applicant has been deemed eligible to receive,
which includes the base grant rate and any top ups per Schedule B.
5. INCENTIVE PROGRAMS
5.1 Large-Scale Development Incentive Program
Purpose
The purpose of the Large-Scale Incentive is to attract high-density residential development to key infill
sites within and adjacent to the City's urban core and inner harbour waterfront areas that align with
the Municipal Plan's vision.
The Large-Scale Incentive Program was premised on a Development Incentive Review, which
undertook financial analysis of several development prototypes in terms of their financial viability. This
review is to be updated regularly, and Program offerings are anticipated to evolve according to
changing need and market conditions.
The Large-Scale Incentive Program proposes a clear, predictable, and competitive incentive while also
balancing fiscal sustainability and protection of City interests. The value of the Large-Scale Incentive
should not exceed new revenue generated because of the development, with tax revenue being
retained to contribute toward necessary servicing and infrastructure costs. A benchmark of at least
50% of tax revenue has been chosen to be retained for needed services, infrastructure, and other
amenities.
