Executive Summary
A.
Purpose of Development Charges (DC) Background Study
Hemson Consulting Ltd. was retained by the Township of Brock to complete
a Development Charges Background Study (herein referred to as the "DC
Study"). This Background Study provides the basis and background required
to update the Township's development charges to accurately reflect the
future servicing needs of development.
i.
Study Consistent with Development Charges Legislation
This study calculates development charges for the Township of Brock in
compliance with the provisions of the Development Charges Act, 1997
(DCA) and its associated regulation Ontario Regulation 82/98 (O.Reg
82/98). This includes amendments to the DCA that came into force
through the More Homes, More Choice Act, the COVID-19 Economic
Recovery Act, and the More Homes Built Faster Act (Bill 23). During the
study process, the province proposed further changes to the DCA
through Bill 185, Cutting Red Tape to Build More Homes Act, 2024, which
received first reading in April 2024 before the public meeting. This
Background Study and associated by-law were prepared in anticipation
of the proposed changes and is in conformity with the current DCA as it
was the date this report was published.
The Township's current Development Charges By-Laws 2880-2019-PL
and 2881-2019-PL expire on June 18, 2019. Council must pass a new by-
law in order to continue to levy development charges.
The Township must continue implementing development charges to help
fund capital projects related to development throughout Brock so that
development continues to be serviced in a fiscally responsible manner.
The calculated changes to the development charges rates are required in
order to reflect the revised costs associated with new infrastructure
requirements.
Executive Summary | 2
ii.
Key Steps of the Development Charges Calculation
In accordance with the DCA and associated regulations, several key steps
are required to calculate development charges. This includes preparing a
development forecast, establishing historical service levels, determining the
increase in need for services arising from development and appropriate
shares of costs, attribution to development types (i.e. residential and non-
residential) and the final adjustment to the calculated rate of a cash flow
analysis.
iii.
DC Eligible and Ineligible Costs
Development charges are intended to pay for the initial round of capital
costs needed to service new development over an identified planning period.
This is based on the overarching principle that "growth pays for growth".
However, the DCA and associated regulation includes several statutory
adjustments and deductions that prevent these costs from fully being
recovered by growth. Such adjustments include but are not limited to:
ineligible costs including operating and maintenance costs; ineligible
services including tourism facilities parkland acquisition, etc.; deductions for
costs that exceed historical service level caps; and statutory exemptions for
specific uses (i.e. industrial expansions).
iv.
The Development-Related Capital Program is Subject to Change
It is recommended that Council adopt the development-related capital
program developed for the purposes of the 2024 DC Background Study.
However, it is recognized that the Background Study is a point-in-time
analysis and there may be changes to project timing, scope and costs
through the Township's normal annual budget process.

Cost of Growth
An overview of the long-term capital and operating costs for the capital
facilities and infrastructure to be included in the DC by-law is provided in
the study. This examination is required as one of the provisions of the DCA.
Additional details on the long-term capital and operating impact analysis is
found in Appendix D. By 2033, the Township's net operating costs are
estimated to increase by about $2.6 million.
A key function of the Asset Management Plan is to demonstrate that all
assets proposed to be funded under the development charges by-law are
financially sustainable over their full life cycle.
By 2034, the Township will need to fund an additional $872,035 per annum
in order to properly fund the full life cycle costs of the new assets supported
under the 2024 Development Charges By-law.
E.

definitions and policies are being considered.
F.
Modifications to the Township's Development Charges
By-law are Proposed
Draft DC by-law(s) were made available, a minimum of two weeks in
advance of the statutory public meeting. The DC By-law reflects the latest
legislative changes including Additional Dwelling Units, Rental Housing
discounts, Non-profit Housing Exemptions and others.
Introduction | 6
1. Introduction
The Development Charges Act, 1997 (DCA) and its associated Ontario
Regulation 82/98 (O. Reg. 82/98) allow municipalities in Ontario to recover
growth-related capital costs from new development. The Township of Brock
Development Charges Background Study is presented as part of a process to
establish a development charges by-law that complies with this legislation.
The anticipated growth in Brock will increase the demand on all Township
services. The Township wishes to implement development charges to fund
capital projects related to growth in Brock so that development continues to
be serviced in a fiscally responsible manner.
When a development charges by-law is proposed, the DCA and O. Reg.
82/98 require that a development charges background study be prepared in
support of the proposed changes with reference to:
A forecast of the amount, type and location of development anticipated in
the Township;
The average capital service levels provided in the Township over the
fifteen-year period immediately preceding the preparation of the
background study;
A review of future capital projects, including an analysis of gross
expenditures, funding sources, and net expenditures incurred, or to be
incurred, by the Township or its local boards to provide for the expected
development, including the determination of the growth and non-growth-
related components of the capital projects; and
An examination of the long-term capital and operating costs for the
capital infrastructure required for each service to which the development
charges by-laws would relate.
Introduction | 7
This study identifies the development-related net capital costs attributable
to development that is forecast to occur in the Township. The costs are
apportioned to types of development (residential and non-residential) in a
manner that reflects the increase in the need for each service attributable to
each type of development.
The DCA provides for a period of public review and comment regarding the
calculated development charges. This process includes considering and
responding to comments received by members of the public about the
calculated charges. Following completion of this process, and in accordance
with the DCA and Council's review of this study, Council has passed a new
development charges by-law for the Township on June 10th, 2024.
The remainder of this study sets out the information and analysis upon
which the calculated development charges are based.
A.
Legislative Context
The study is prepared in accordance with the DCA and associated
regulations, including the amendments that came into force most recently on
November 28, 2022 as per Bill 23: More Homes Built Faster Act, 2022 and an
anticipation of passing Bill 185: Cutting Red Tape to Build More Homes Act,
2024. Bill 185 received Royal Assent on June 6, 2024, just before the passing
of the Town's DC By-law 3274-2024. Key legislative changes include:
Five-year mandatory phase-in of the calculated DC rates (beginning with
a 20% reduction in Year 1, decreasing by 5% annually until Year 5) has
been removed as of June 6, 2024 following Royal Assent of Bill 185;
Historical service level standards have been extended from a 10 to 15-
year planning period;
DC by-laws now expire every 10 years instead of 5 years;
Introduction | 8
The amount of interest paid on DC deferrals and freeze is capped at
prime plus 1%;
The length of time for freezing of DCs under Section 26.2 of the DCA is
reduced to 18 months from two years following Council approval;
Costs associated with affordable housing services are now ineligible for
recovery through DCs;
Costs associated with development related studies are now eligible again
for recovery from DCs. The DC Study anticipated this change as it was
announced in December 2023 by the Minister of MMAH;
Municipalities must spend or allocate 60% of available DC reserve funds
per year for roads, water and wastewater services;
Discounts for purpose built rentals based on the number of bedrooms;
and
Exemption for affordable housing was brought into force on June 1, 2024
by Proclamation by the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario.
The attainable housing developments exemption from the payment of DCs
have not yet been released and therefore, these changes are not yet in
force.
B.
Relevant Analysis
The underlying assumptions and calculation methodologies contained in the
DC Background Study have been informed by a range of inputs including the
Township's capital budget, existing master plans, and discussions with
Township staff.
The DC Methodology Aligns Development-Related Costs and Benefits | 9
2. The DC Methodology Aligns Development-
Related Costs and Benefits
Several key steps are required when calculating any development charge,
however, specific circumstances arise in each municipality which must be
reflected in the calculation. In this study, we have tailored our approach to the
Township of Brock's unique circumstances. The approach to the calculated
development charges is focused on providing a reasonable alignment of
growth-related costs with the development that necessitates them. This
study uses a Township-wide approach for all services provided by the
Township of Brock. The Background Study provides an update to the
historical service levels and the cost of providing future development-related
capital infrastructure.
A.
Township-wide Development Charges are Proposed
The DCA provides municipalities with flexibility to define services that will
be included in the development charges by-laws, provided that its other
provisions, as well as those of O. Reg. 82/98, are met. The DCA also requires
that Council give consideration to the use of area-specific development
charges. The development charges may apply to all lands in a municipality
or to other designated development areas as specified in the by-laws.
A range of capital infrastructure is available, and all Brock residents and
employees have access to this infrastructure throughout the Township. As
new development occurs, new infrastructure will be needed in order to
maintain overall service levels in the Township. A widely accepted method of
sharing the development-related capital costs for such Township services is
to apportion them over all anticipated growth.
The DC Methodology Aligns Development-Related Costs and Benefits | 10
The following services are included in the development charges calculations:
Development Related Studies
Library, Parks & Recreation
Fire Services
By-law Services
Services Related to a Highway: Public Works - Buildings & Fleet
Services Related to a Highway: Roads and Related
These services form a reasonable basis in which to plan and administer the
Township-wide development charges. It is noted that the analysis of each of
these services examines the individual capital facilities and equipment that
constitute it. The resulting development charges for these services would be
imposed against all development in the Township.
B.
Key Steps when Determining Development Charges for
Future Growth Related Projects
Several key steps are required in calculating development charges for future
development-related projects. These are summarized in Figure 1 and
discussed further in the following sections.

i.
Development Forecast
The first step in the methodology requires that a development forecast be
prepared for the ten-year study period from 2024 to 2033. The forecast of
future residential and non-residential development used in this study are
largely based on the targets prepared by Hemson Consulting. It is noted that
the targets used are less than Durham Region's Official Plan targets for the
Township, however they are greater than recent building activity. Through
analysis and discussion with staff, the Official Plan targets were deemed to
not be achievable in the short-term based on current development trends.
For the residential portion of the forecast both the census population growth
and population growth in new units is estimated. Net population growth
determines the need for additional facilities and provides the foundation for
the development-related capital program.
The non-residential portion of the forecast estimates the amount of building
space to be developed in the Township over the planning period. The
forecast is based on the projected increase in employment levels and the
anticipated amount of new building space required to accommodate it.
ii.
Service Categories and Historical Service Levels
The DCA states that the increase in the need for service attributable to
anticipated development:
... must not include an increase that would result in the level of
service exceeding the average level of that service provided in the
Township over the 15-year period immediately preceding the
preparation of the background study...(s. 5. (1) 4.)
Historical fifteen-year average service levels thus form the basis for the
development charges calculation. A review of the Township's capital service
levels for buildings, land, vehicles, equipment and others has therefore been
prepared as a reference for the calculation so that the portion of future
capital projects that may be included in the development charges can be
The DC Methodology Aligns Development-Related Costs and Benefits | 13
determined. The historical service levels used in this study have been
calculated based on the period from 2009 to 2023.
iii.
Development-Related Capital Forecast and Analysis of Net Capital
Costs to be included in the Development Charges
A development-related capital forecast has been prepared by Township staff
as part of the study. The forecast identifies development-related projects
and their gross and net costs, after allowing for capital grants, subsidies or
other contributions as required by the DCA s.5.(2). The capital forecast
provides another cornerstone upon which development charges are based.
The DCA requires that the increase in the need for service attributable to
the anticipated development may include an increase:
... only if the council of the Township has indicated that it intends to
ensure that such an increase in need will be met. (s. 5. (1) 3.)
S. 5. (1) 4. and s. 5. (2). require that the development charges be calculated
on the lesser of the historical fifteen-year average service levels or the
service levels embodied in the future plans of the Township. The
development-related capital forecast prepared for this study ensures that
development charges are only imposed to help pay for projects that have
been or are intended to be purchased or built in order to accommodate future
anticipated development. It is not sufficient in the calculation of development
charges merely to have had the service in the past. There must also be a
demonstrated commitment to continue to emplace facilities or infrastructure
in the future. In this regard, Ontario Regulation 82/98, s. 3 states that:
For the purposes of paragraph 3 of subsection 5 (1) of the Act, the
council of a municipality has indicated that it intends to ensure that
an increase in the need for service will be met if the increase in
service forms part of an official plan, capital forecast or similar
expression of the intention of the council and the plan, forecast or
similar expression of the intention of the council has been approved
by the council.
The DC Methodology Aligns Development-Related Costs and Benefits | 14
For some projects in the development-related capital forecast, a portion of
the project may confer benefits to existing residents. As required by the
DCA, s. 5. (1) 6., these portions of projects and their associated net costs
are the funding responsibility of the Township from non-development
charges sources. The amount of financing for such non-growth shares of
projects is also identified as part of the preparation of the development-
related capital forecast.
There is also a requirement in the DCA to reduce the applicable
development charges by the amount of any "uncommitted excess capacity"
that is available for a service. Such capacity is available to partially meet
future servicing requirements. Adjustments are made in the analysis to meet
this requirement of the Act.
iv.
Attribution to Types of Development
The next step in the determination of development charges is the allocation
of the development-related net capital costs between the residential and the
non-residential sectors. In the Township of Brock, the allocation is based on
the projected changes in population and employment over the planning
periods, the anticipated demand for services and other relevant factors.
The residential component of the development charges is applied to
different housing types based on average occupancy factors. The non-
residential component is applied on the basis of gross building space in
square metres.
Development Forecast | 15
3. Development Forecast
The DCA requires the Township to estimate "the anticipated amount, type
and location of development" for which development charges may be
imposed. The development forecast must cover both residential and non-
residential development and be specific enough with regards to quantum,
type, location and timing of development to allow the Township to prepare a
reasonable development-related capital program.
A ten-year development forecast, from 2024 to 2033, has been used for all
development charge eligible services. From 2024 - 2033 it is anticipated that
the Township will add approximately 812 new residential private dwelling
units within the ten-year period, which can accommodate a population of
2,470. In the same planning horizon, it is anticipated that the Township will
see a total GFA growth of 25,392 square metres of new non-residential
building space with an accompanying employment growth of 518.
Table 1 provides a summary of the residential and non-residential
development forecast used in this analysis.

4. Historical Capital Services Levels
The DCA and O. Reg. 82/98 require that the development charges be set at
a level no higher than the average service level provided in the Township
over the fifteen-year period immediately preceding the preparation of the
background study, on a service-by-service basis.
For all Township services, the legislative requirement is met by documenting
historical service levels for the preceding ten years, in this case, for the
period 2008 to 2023. Typically, service levels are measured as a ratio of
inputs per capita (or per population and employment).
O. Reg. 82/98 requires that when defining and determining historical service
levels, both the quantity and quality of service be taken into consideration.
In most cases, the service levels are initially established in quantitative
terms. For example, service levels for buildings are presented in terms of
square feet per unit. The qualitative aspect is introduced by considering the
monetary value of a facility or service. In the case of buildings, for example,
the cost would be shown in terms of dollars per square foot to replace or
construct a facility of the same quality. This approach helps to ensure that
the development-related capital facilities that are to be charged to new
growth reflect not only the quantity (number and size) but also the quality
(value or cost) of services provided by the Township in the past. Both the
quantitative and qualitative aspects of service levels used in the current
analysis are based on information provided by Township staff. This
information is generally based on historical records and the Township's and
surrounding municipalities' experience with costs to acquire or construct
similar facilities, equipment and infrastructure.
Table 2 summarizes service levels for all services included in the
development charges calculations. Appendix B provides detailed historical
inventory data upon which the calculation of service levels is based for all
applicable services.

5. Development-Related Capital Forecast
The DCA requires that the Council of the Township express its intent to provide
future capital facilities at the level incorporated in the development charges
calculation. As noted above, Ontario Regulation 82/98, s. 3 states that:
For the purposes of paragraph 3 of subsection 5 (1) of the Act, the
council of a Township has indicated that it intends to ensure that an
increase in the need for service will be met if the increase in service
forms part of an official plan, capital forecast or similar expression of
the intention of the council and the plan, forecast or similar
expression of the intention of the council has been approved by the
council.
A.
Development-Related Capital Program is Provided for
Council's Approval
Based on the development forecasts summarized in Section 3 and detailed
in Appendix A, Township staff, in collaboration with the consultant has
developed a development-related capital forecast which sets out those
projects that are required to service anticipated growth. For all services, the
capital plan covers the ten-year period from 2024 to 2033.
One of the recommendations contained in this Background Study is for
Council to adopt the development-related capital program developed for the
purposes of the development charges calculation. It is assumed that future
capital budgets and forecasts will continue to bring forward the capital
projects presented here as they will be needed to service the anticipated
growth in the Township. It is, however, acknowledged that changes to the
program presented here may occur through the Township's capital budget
process.
Development-Related Capital Forecast | 20
B.
The Development-Related Capital Forecast for Township
Services
A summary of the development-related capital forecast for Township-wide
services is presented in Table 3.
The table shows that the gross cost of the Township's capital program is
estimated to be $56.3 million. Approximately $5.7 million in grants have been
identified to subsidize the cost of the capital program, so $50.7 million is
identified as the net municipal cost brought forth for the development
charges consideration.
Of this $50.7 million net capital cost, 42%, or $21.1 million is related to
capital works for Roads and Related projects. Capital projects include
various road improvements in Sunderland and Beaverton and growth-related
share of annual road works in the Township.
The next largest capital program belongs to Library, Parks & Recreation at
37%. This capital program includes the provision for additional collection
materials, the expansion of arenas, additional park and trail developments and
other projects. These projects total $18.5 million of the total net capital cost.
The capital program for Fire is recovering for the debenture payments
related to Fire Station #1, vehicles, and other fire related equipment. These
projects total $5.0 million and represent 10% of the total capital program.
The capital program for Public Works: Buildings & Fleet is recovering for a
works yard expansion and various fleet equipment required to support new
development. These projects amount to $4.4 million of the total capital
program, which represents 9%.
The capital program for By-law Services is a provision of a building
expansion and various fleet equipment required to support new
development. These projects amount to $1.1 million of the total capital
program, which represents 2%.
Development-Related Capital Forecast | 21
Lastly, the capital program associated with Development Related Studies
relates to the provision of growth-related studies. It amounts to $605,000,
which represents 1%, and provides for necessary development-related
studies in the next ten years. These studies include additional development
charges studies, Official Plan Review, Fire Master Plan, and other growth-
related studies.
The capital program incorporates those projects identified to be related to
development anticipated in the next ten years. It is not implied that all these
costs are to be recovered from new development by way of development
charges. Portions of the capital program may be related to the replacement
of existing facilities, shares of projects that benefit the existing population or
growth anticipated to occur beyond the 2024 - 2033 planning period.
The remaining development-related capital costs are brought forward to the
development charges calculation. Further details on the capital plans for
each individual service category are available in Appendix B.

6. Development Charges are Calculated in
Accordance with the DCA
This section summarizes the calculation of development charges for each
service category and the resulting total development charge by type of
development. For all services, the calculation of the per capita (residential)
and per square metre (non-residential) charges is reviewed.
For residential development, a total per capita amount is applied to different
housing types based on average occupancy factors. For non-residential
development, the calculated development charge rates are based on gross
floor area (GFA) of building space.
It is noted that the calculation of the development charges does not include
any provision for exemptions required under the DCA, for example, the
exemption for enlargements of up to 50 per cent on existing industrial
buildings. Such legislated exemptions, or other exemptions which Council
may choose to provide, will result in a loss of development charges revenue
for the affected types of development. Any such revenue loss may not be
offset, however, by increasing other portions of the calculated charge.
A.
Development Charges Calculation
A summary of the calculated residential and non-residential development
charges is presented in Table 4. Further details of the calculation for each
individual service category are available in Appendix B.
i.
Development Charges Rates
The capital forecast incorporates those projects identified to be related to
growth anticipated in the next ten years. However, not all the capital costs are
to be recovered from new development by way of development charges. Table
4 shows that $17.1 million of the capital forecast relates to replacement of
existing capital or to shares of projects that provide benefit to the existing
community. These portions of capital costs would have to be funded from
property taxes and other non-development charges revenue sources.

An additional share of $5.3 million has been identified as available DC
reserves and represents the revenues collected from previous development
charges. This portion has been netted out of the chargeable capital costs.
Another share of the forecast, $2.5 million is either attributable to growth
beyond 2033 (and can therefore only be recovered under future development
charges studies) or represents a service level increase in the Township.
The remaining $25.7 million is carried forward to the development charges
calculation as development-related costs. Of the development-related cost,
$23.2 million has been allocated to new residential development, and $2.6
million has been allocated to new non-residential development. This results
in a charge of $9,378.70 per capita and $100.65 per square metre.

Residential and Non-Residential Development Charge Rates
Table 5 summarizes the calculated rates by residential unit type with the
total charge per unit ranging from a high of $31,383 for a fully serviced
single- and semi-detached unit to a low of $15,006 for an apartment.
The non-residential charge is $100.65 per square metre as displayed on

7. Long-Term Capital and Operating Costs
This section provides a brief examination of the long-term capital and
operating costs for the capital facilities and infrastructure to be included in
the development charges by-law. This examination is required as one of the
features of the DCA.
A.
Net Operating Costs for the Township's Services to
Increase 0ver the Forecast Period
Table 9 summarizes the estimated increase in net operating costs that the
Township will experience for additions associated with the planned capital
program. The estimated changes in net operating costs are based on the
financial information from the Township (additional details are included in
Appendix D).
As shown in Table 9, by 2033 the Township's net operating costs are
estimated to increase by about $2.6 million.
Long-Term Capital and Operating Costs | 31
B.
Long-Term Capital Financing from Non-Development
Charges Sources
As detailed in Appendix D, the components of the development-related
capital forecast that will require funding from non-development charges
sources. Of the $50.7 million net capital forecast, about $17.1 million will
need to be financed from non-development charges sources over the next
10 years.

C.
Asset Management Plan
The DCA requires that municipalities complete an Asset Management Plan
before the passing of a development charges by-law. A key function of the
Asset Management Plan is to demonstrate that all assets are proposed to be
funded under the development charges by-law are financially sustainable
over their full life cycle. Further details relating to the Asset Management
Plan are discussed in Appendix D.
D.
Annual Capital Provisions by 2034
Table 10 summarizes the annual capital provisions required to replace the
development eligible and ineligible costs associated with the capital
infrastructure identified in the DC Background Study. This estimate is based
on information obtained through discussions with municipal staff regarding
useful life assumptions and the capital cost of acquiring and/or emplacing
each asset.
Table 10 illustrates that, by 2034, the Township will need to fund an
additional $872,035 per annum to properly fund the full life cycle costs of
the new Township-wide assets supported under the proposed Development
Charges By-law.
The calculated annual funding provision should be considered within the
context of the Township's projected growth. Over the next ten years, the
Township is projected to increase by approximately 812 households, which
represents a 16% increase over the existing base. In addition, the Township
will also add roughly 518 new employees that will result in approximately
25,392 square metres of additional non-residential building space. This
growth will have the effect of increasing the overall assessment base and
additional user fee and charges revenues to offset the capital asset
provisions required to replace the infrastructure proposed to be funded
under the proposed Development Charges By-laws.
Long-Term Capital and Operating Costs | 33
The calculated annual provisions identified are financially sustainable as it
is expected that the increased capital asset management requirements can
be absorbed by the tax and user base over the long-term.

A.
Development Charge Administration
Many of the administrative requirements of the DCA will be similar to those
presently followed by the Township in terms of collection practices. In this
regard:
It is recommended that the present practices regarding collection of
development charges and by-law administration continue to the extent
possible;
As required under the DCA, the Township should codify any rules
regarding application of the by-laws and any exemptions within the
development charges by-laws proposed for adoption;
It is recommended that the Township continue to report policies
consistent with the requirements of the DCA;
It is recommended that the by-laws permit the payment of a
development charge in cash or through services-in-lieu agreements. The
municipality is not obligated to enter into services-in-lieu agreements;
It is recommended that Council, wherever appropriate, request that
grants, subsidies and other contributions be clearly designated by the
donor as being to the benefit of existing or new development, as
applicable; and
It is recommended that Council adopt the development-related capital
forecast included in this background study, subject to annual review
through the Township's normal capital budget process.
Development Charges Administration | 35
B.
Township-wide vs. Area Specific Development Charges
i.
Consideration for Area Rating
In accordance with the DCA, Council must give consideration to the use of
area rating, also known as area-specific development charges as part of the
DC Background Study. As part of the Township's 2024 DC Study update, the
appropriateness of implementing area-specific development charges for
various Township services was examined.
The DCA permits the Township to designate in its DC by-law, the areas
where development charges shall be imposed. The charges may apply to all
lands in the Township or to other designated development areas as
specified in the DC By-law.
The following was considered with respect to area-specific development
charges:
1. Is the use of area-specific charges appropriate for some or all
services?
2. Are there any data limitations with calculating an area-specific
development charge?
Area-specific development charges are typically considered when there is a
clear benefit to a particular area (including the population or population and
employment) and have been implemented mostly in stand alone green field
developments.
ii.
Consistent with Historical Practices, Township-wide DCs are
Proposed
Based on discussions with staff, and the analysis of the delivery of services,
it is proposed that the Township continue to calculate and collect DCs on a
uniform, Township-wide basis.
Development Charges Administration | 36
Services such as Library, Parks & Recreation are open and accessible to all
residents in the Township and are driven and planned for based on
Township-wide population growth.
Fire Protection, Public Works, By-law, and Development Related Studies are
provided to all residents and employees in the Township and are driven and
planned for based on Township-wide population or population and
employment growth.
Roads and Related services are provided through a Township-wide network
and is planned based on Township-wide population and employment growth.
C.
Draft Local Service Definitions
The following provides the definition of "local service", under the DCA, for
several services provided by the Township of Brock. The purpose in
establishing these definitions is to determine the eligible capital costs for
inclusion in the development charge calculation for the Township of Brock.
The functions or services deemed to be local in nature are not to be
included in the determination of the development charge rates. The
provision of local services is a direct developer responsibility under s.59 of
the DCA and will (or may) be recovered under other agreement(s) with the
landowner or developer. The issue of "local services" is being specifically
considered for the services of:
Roads
Stormwater Management Facilities
Parkland Development
Street Tree Planting
Development Charges Administration | 37
i.
Roads
Local Roads:
All roads and share of roads within a development plan (i.e. plan of
subdivision, lot created by consent, site plan etc.) and considered to
solely provide service to the subject lands are to be treated as a local
service under the DCA and the associated costs are not included in the
development charges calculation.
Road Oversizing:
If a local road is oversized to accommodate additional traffic needs
external to the subject lands, the oversized share of the roads is to be
included in the development charge calculation.
Note, oversizing of roads usually relates to collector roads, however it is
possible that a share of an arterial road may be local and would be
funded as a direct developer responsibility. It is noted that growth-
related arterial roads requirements are generally fully funded from
development charges.
ii.
Stormwater Management (SWM) Facilities
The costs of stormwater management facilities internal to a development
plan and related to a development plan are a local service under the DCA
and the associated costs are not included in the development charges
calculation. Local SWM facilities would typically include:
Stormwater management facilities servicing local drainage areas;
Storm sewer oversizing associated with local drainage areas; and
Storm sewer works on existing roads or roads within the development
plan.
Development Charges Administration | 38
iii.
Parkland Development
For parkland development, local service includes the requirement for the
owner to undertake preparation of the park plan to prepare design and
grading plans for the park, prior to development. In addition, the owner is
required to provide stripping and stockpiling, levelling, topsoiling, seeding
and stormwater servicing (consistent with the development plan), and
provide services to the lot line. These requirements are part of the
conditions of s.51 and 53 of the Planning Act agreements. The municipality
also requires the owner to dedicate parkland or provide cash-in-lieu,
consistent with the Planning Act provisions. All these costs are deemed a
direct responsibility of the developer and have not been included in the
development charge calculation.
With respect to other parkland development costs, the municipal policy is to
include all other components of parkland development in the development
charges calculation, including parking, park furniture, signage, landscaping,
and walkways/trails, in addition to the necessary fields, diamonds,
playground equipment, lighting, irrigation and field houses.
iv.
Street Tree Planting
Street tree planting and other landscaping work are considered a local area
service and a direct responsibility of the developer.

Appendix A - Development Forecast
This appendix provides the details of the development forecast used to
prepare the 2024 Development Charges (DC) Background Study for the
Township of Brock. The forecast method and key assumptions are

The forecasts were prepared by Hemson in consultation with Township staff
and are informed by a range of statistical data including Township Building
Permits, Statistics Canada Census and National Household Survey data, and
Canada Mortgage Housing Corporation (CMHC) housing market information.
The forecast of future residential and non-residential development used in
this study are largely based on the targets prepared for the Region of
Durham's 2022 Area Municipal Growth Allocations and Land Needs by 2051.
Prepared by Watson & Associates Economists. For this 2024 DC Background
Study, a ten-year planning horizon is used to 2033. The targets for 2033
have been adjusted by Hemson in discussion with Township staff based on
recent building activity and anticipated development trends.
Appendix A | 40
A.
Forecast Approach and Key Assumptions
The Development Charges Act (DCA) requires the Township to estimate "the
anticipated amount, type and location of development" for which
development charges may be imposed. The development forecast must cover
both residential and non-residential development and be specific enough with
regards to quantum, type, location and timing of development to allow the
Township to prepare a reasonable development-related capital program.
A "Census-based" definition of population is used for the purpose of the
development charges study. This definition does not include the Census net
undercoverage, which is typically included in the definition of "total"
population commonly used in municipal planning documents.
The forecast is based on Census years and is translated into the time
periods required for DC purposes, generally pro-rating the census periods to
the DC time period. A ten-year development forecast, from 2024 to 2033,
has been used for all services in the Township.
Employment figures used in DC studies utilize place of work employment
values. Place of work employment considers where people work irrespective
of their place of residence. The forecast is based on recent growth trends
and input form Township staff. For DC forecast purposes, the work at home
employment is excluded from the calculations since the increased need for
service is already captured in the residential forecast.
B.
Historical Development Activity
Growth in Brock has largely been driven by the Township's attractiveness as
a mixed urban-rural municipality. The Township contains several villages
that offer urban amenities, namely Cannington, Beaverton, and Sunderland.
However, the Township also offers prime agricultural opportunities, and
recreation opportunities along the east shore of Lake Simcoe.
Appendix A | 41
i.
Historical Growth Methodology
Historical growth numbers presented in this report are based on Statistics
Canada Census data. The forthcoming population numbers do not include
Census under coverage which typically understates actual population by 4
per cent.
The fifteen year historical period used in the Development Charges
Background Study is from 2009 - 2023. As 2021 was the date of the last
Census, values for 2022 and 2023 are estimated.
Total employment numbers used in the historical tables are based on
Statistics Canada Place of Work data. Place of Work employment numbers
exclude work at home and are premised on where someone works rather
than their place of residence.
ii.
Historical Growth in Population, Housing Units and Employment
Brock's housing growth has occurred at a modest pace over the last fifteen
years as shown in Table A.1. Between 2009 and 2023 the Township added
549 housing units and the Township's population increased by about 1,230
people. There was a decline within the fifteen-year period in the average
Persons per Unit (PPU) with recovery to 2011 levels by 2021. Both the
Region of Durham and Township are estimating that the population of the
Township will continue to increase at a similar rate during the forecast
period and beyond. The Township's Census population was 12,567 in 2021
net of the Census undercount.
The Township of Brock has experienced a growth in employment over the
past fifteen years. Between 2009 and 2023, employment in Brock increased
by 155 employees or about a 5 per cent increase. Brock's total employment in
2021 was about 3,080 excluding work at home employment. As employment
growth has been more substantial than population growth, the activity rate
(jobs to population ratio) has decreased from 27.7% in 2011 to 24.5% by 2021.
Appendix A | 42
Similar to the forecasted population growth by the Region and Township,
employment is also anticipated to increase during the growth forecast period
although at a more modest pace.
iii.
Growth in Occupied Households has Been Largely in Single
Detached Homes
Details on historical occupied households by unit type in the Township are
provided in Table A.2 and the building permits in Table A.3. Information in Table
A.2 is sourced from CMHC and Table A.3 from Township data on building
permits. Overall, the dominant type of housing in Brock constructed since 2009
has been single and semi-detached housing (90%). This is followed by
apartments (8%) and rows and other multiples (2%) in the last fifteen years.
iv.
Historical Households by Period of Construction Showing
Household Size
Historical occupancy levels for single and semi detached, rows and other
multiple and apartment units in Brock are provided in Table A.4. However,
the data for rows and other multiples and apartments is very limited for the
Township. As such, the single and semi detached PPU from the 2021
Census data was the only data point used in the 2024 DC Study. The
remaining unit occupancy patterns were estimated based on proportional
occupancy patterns relative to the single and semi detached PPU.
These ratios have been generally maintained from the 2014 DC Background
Study and are now estimated at 2.60 for rows and other multiples and 1.60
for apartment units.
C.
Forecast Results
The residential and non-residential growth forecasts used in this
development charges study are largely based on a continuation of historic
trends but at lower levels to reflect a more gradual increase in development
Appendix A | 43
as seen in recent years. Development charges are levied on residential
development as a charge per new unit and on non-residential development
as a charge per unit of gross floor area (GFA), respectively. This section
describes the 10-year development forecast, from 2024 - 2033, which has
been used for all services. Development charges are levied on residential
development as a charge per new unit. Therefore, for the residential
forecast, a projection of both the population growth1 as well as the
population in new housing is required.
The population growth determines the need for additional facilities
and provides the foundation for the development-related capital
program.
When calculating the development charge, however, the
development-related net capital costs are spread over the total
additional population that occupies new dwelling units. This
population in new units represents the population from which
development charges will be collected.
Development charges are levied on non-residential development as a charge
per unit of gross floor area (GFA). The non-residential forecast includes
both a projection of employment growth as well as a projection of the floor
space associated with employment growth in the Township.
i.
Forecast of Population and Households
Table A.5 provides details of the Township-wide census population forecast,
total occupied dwelling unit forecast and a place of work forecast. By 2033,
the Township's population is expected to increase to about 15,070 people.
The increase over the ten-year period of 2024-2033 is therefore
approximately 2,113 persons.
1 Commonly referred to as "net population growth" in the context of development charges.
Appendix A | 44
In the development charges forecast period from 2024-2033, the Township's
household forecast, is increasing in the number of occupied dwelling units
on average by approximately 80 units annually with the PPU remaining at
2.62 for all units in the Township. A breakdown of unit growth by type is
provided in Table A.6.
Forecasted growth in net population in new units of approximately 2,470 is
used for the calculation of DC rates in the Background Study and is shown
in Table A.7. It is anticipated that population in new units is going to roughly
equal overall census population growth.
ii.
Non-Residential Space Forecast Based on the Forecast of
Employment
Non-residential development charges are calculated on a per square metre
basis. Therefore, as required by the DCA, a forecast for non-residential
building space is provided. Consistent with the residential forecast, the non-
residential building space forecast covers a period from 2024 - 2033. The
non-residential building space used in this DC Background Study is based
on the employment forecast.
As demonstrated in Table A.8, in the 10-year development charges forecast
period from 2024 - 2033 the Township's employment is to increase at an
average of approximately 36 employees and 2,540 square meters annually.
Over the 10-year planning period 2024 - 2033, about 25,390 square metres
of building space is forecast to be added. The average square meters per
employee is 70 square metres per employee, which was used to derive the
floor space forecast.

Appendix B - Development Charge
Calculations Technical Appendix
Introduction and Overview
This appendix provides the detailed analysis undertaken to establish the
development charge rates for each service in the Township of Brock.
The appendix is divided into six sub-sections, with one section for each
service:
B.1
Library, Parks & Recreation
B.2
Fire Services
B.3
By-law Services
B.4
Development Related Studies
B.5
Services Related to a Highway: Public Works - Building & Fleet
B.6
Services Related to a Highway: Roads and Related
Every sub-section, except for Development Related Studies, contain a set of
two tables. The tables provide the background data and analysis undertaken
to arrive at the calculated development charge rates for that service. An
overview of the content and purpose of each of the tables is given below.
Development Related Studies class of services has been included in this
report as permitted under the DCA as of June 6, 2024, following Royal
Assent of Bill 185, Cutting Red Tape to Build More Homes Act, 2024.
The benefits of all the services listed above are deemed to be Township-
wide for the purpose of calculating a development charge.
Appendix B | 55
Table 1
Historical Service Levels
Table 1 presents the data used to determine the fifteen-year historical
service level. The Development Charges Act (DCA) and Ontario Regulation
82/98 require that development charges be set at a level no higher than the
average service level provided in the Township over the fifteen-year period
immediately preceding the preparation of the background study, on a
service-by-service basis. For the purpose of this study, the historical
inventory period has been defined as 2009 to 2023.
O. Reg. 82/98 requires that when defining and determining historical service
levels, both the quantity and quality of service be taken into consideration.
In most cases, the service levels are initially established in quantitative
terms. For example, service levels for buildings are presented in terms of
square feet per unit. The qualitative aspect is introduced by considering the
monetary value of the facility or service. In the case of buildings, for
example, the cost would be shown in terms of dollars per square foot to
replace or construct a facility of the same quality. This approach helps to
ensure that the capital facilities that are to be charged to new development
reflect not only the quantity (number and size) but also the quality (value or
cost) of service provided by the Township in the past. Both the quantitative
and qualitative aspects of service levels used in the current analysis are
based on information provided by Township staff. This information is
generally based on historical records and experience with costs to acquire or
construct similar facilities, equipment, and infrastructure.
The final page of Table 1 shows the calculation of the "maximum allowable
funding envelope", net of uncommitted excess capacity. The maximum
allowable is defined as the fifteen-year historical service level (expressed as
$/capita or $/population and employment) multiplied by the forecast
increase in population or population and employment over the planning
period. The resulting figure is the value of capital infrastructure that must be
Appendix B | 56
constructed for that service so that the fifteen-year historical service level is
maintained.
There is also a requirement in the DCA to consider "excess capacity" within
the Township's existing infrastructure that may be available to partially meet
future servicing requirements. If Council has expressed its intent, before or
at the time the capacity was created, to recoup the cost of providing the
capacity from new development, it is considered "committed excess
capacity" under the DCA and the associated capital cost is eligible for
recovery. Should uncommitted excess capacity exist, it will be determined
whether this capacity will be available to service new development and, if
so, appropriate adjustments will be made to the calculations.
Table 2
2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program
& Calculation of Development Charge
To impose a development charge, it is not sufficient to merely base the
charge on historical service levels. The DCA requires that Council express its
intent to provide future capital facilities to support future growth. Based on
the development forecasts presented in Appendix A, Township staff have
developed a development-related capital program which sets out the
projects required to service anticipated development for the ten-year period
from 2024 to 2033. The development-related capital program for each
service is shown as Table 2 of each sub-section.
The gross costs of projects shown in the capital programs are based on
costs in Township's 10-year capital forecast. To determine the share of the
program that is eligible for recovery through development charges, the gross
project costs are reduced by any anticipated grants or subsidies and the
"benefit to existing" shares.
Appendix B | 57
A replacement share occurs when a new facility will at least in part replace a
facility that is demolished, redeployed, or will otherwise not be available to
serve its former function. The replacement share of the capital program is
not deemed to be development-related and is therefore removed from the
development charge calculation. The capital cost for replacement will
require funding from non-development charge sources, typically property
taxes.
The capital program less any benefit to existing shares yields the
development-related costs. Although deemed development-related, not all
the net development-related capital program may be recoverable from
development charges in the period from 2024 to 2033. In some cases,
development charge monies already collected are available to fund a portion
of development-related capital costs (the "prior growth" share).
Additionally, for some of the services, a portion of the capital program will
service development that will not occur until after 2033. This portion of the
capital program is either deemed "pre-built" service capacity to be
considered as committed excess capacity to be recovered under future
development or represents a future service level increase that is ineligible
for development charge recovery.
The remaining portion of the net capital program represents the
development-related cost that may be included in the development charge
calculation. In all cases, this amount is equal to or less than the maximum
allowable funding envelope, that is calculated on the final page of Table 1.
The result is the discounted development-related net capital cost that is
eligible for recovery through development charges from 2024 to 2033.
Calculation of the Development Charge Rates
The section below the capital program displays the calculation of the
development charge rates.
Appendix B | 58
The first step when determining the development charge rate is to allocate
the development-related net capital cost between the residential and non-
residential sectors. For all services except Library, Parks & Recreation, the
development-related costs have been allocated 83% residential and 17%
non-residential.
The development-related costs associated with Library, Parks & Recreation
have been allocated wholly to residential development because the need for
service is driven entirely by residential development.
The residential share of the 2024-2033 DC eligible costs are then divided by
the forecast population growth in new units. This gives the residential
development charge per capita. The non-residential development-related
net capital costs are divided by the forecast increase in non-residential
gross floor area (GFA). This yields a charge per square metre of new non-
residential GFA.
Appendix B | 59
Appendix B.1
Library, Parks & Recreation
Appendix B | 60
Appendix B.1 - Library, Parks & Recreation
Brock Township Public Library Board is responsible for the delivery of library
services in the Township and the Parks and Recreation Division of the
Public Works Department is responsible for parks and recreation services.
Table B.1-1
Historical Service Levels
Table B.1-1 displays the Library Board's fifteen-year historical inventory for
buildings, land, materials, and furniture and equipment (excluding personal
computers). The current building area totals 10,615 sq ft and has a
replacement value of $5.3 million. There are 0.6 hectares of land associated
with the buildings valued at $322,500. Collection materials are valued at $2.4
million, and furniture and equipment is valued at $889,100.
The Township of Brock's inventory of parkland is separated into two
categories: neighborhood parks and community parks. Table B.1-1 shows
that the cost of developing Brock's total inventory of about 45 ha of parkland
is $6.7 million. The cost of parkland acquisition cannot be included in the
development charges inventory as per the DCA.
The combined area of the indoor recreation facilities is approximately
131,640 sq ft and has a replacement value of $65.8 million. This space
includes recreation centres, arenas, program rooms, and other space. The
land area associated with the buildings is 3.4 hectares and is valued at $1.7
million. The equipment associated with indoor recreation adds another $3.42
million to the inventory.
The Township also has an inventory of sports fields, playground equipment
and similar facilities. The total value of these facilities is $4.8 million in 2023.
The inventory of equipment and other outdoor facilities is valued at $2.3
million.
Appendix B | 61
The 2023 total replacement value of assets for Library, Parks & Recreation
amounts to $93.8 million, and the fifteen-year historical average service
level is $7,695.87 per capita. The historical service level, multiplied by the
forecasted ten-year growth in population, results in a maximum allowable
funding envelope of $16.3 million that can be considered for recovery
through development charges with no identifiable excess capacity.
Table B.1-2
2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program
& Calculation of the Development Charges
The 2024 - 2033 development-related capital program for Library, Parks &
Recreation services net municipal cost totals $24.2 million and is largely
related to the construction of the expansion of the Sunderland Memorial
Arena. The 2024-2033 development-related capital program for the Library
component of Library, Parks & Recreation totals $2.1 million over the ten
years, all of which is new equipment to service residential development.
The Indoor Recreation component of the capital plan includes the expansion
of the Sunderland Memorial Arena Expansion, currently proposed for to
begin in 2024 with a gross cost of $10.2 million. Available DC reserves in the
amount of $1.1 million are committed against the expansion. Since the
previous DC Study, additional design work has been completed and the
benefit to existing share has been updated to 35% or $1.6 million which has
been netted off the DC eligible amount. This share is based on the amount
of the cost related to replacing existing infrastructure and new infrastructure
necessitated to service development in the Township. The Township is
anticipating a $5.5 million grant or subsidy for the project.
The Parks component of the capital plan includes items such as parks,
trails, playground equipment, and park facilities totalling $4.3 million in gross
costs of which $300,000, is identified as the benefit to existing share.
Appendix B | 62
Benefit to existing share of $300,000 or 75% has been identified for the
Harbour Infrastructure Expenditure project and has been removed from the
development charge calculation. The total DC eligible costs are deemed to
be $13.9 million with the available $3.2 million in reserve funds being
applied to the DC eligible cost. The net amount being recovered from growth
in the ten-year period is $10.7 million, well under the maximum funding
envelope of $16.3 million. No post-period benefit shares have been
identified for this service.
The DC eligible cost of $10.7 million is related to growth between 2024 and
2033 and is allocated entirely against future residential development in the
Township of Brock. This results in a development charge of $4,323.65 per
capita.

Fire Protection
Appendix B | 72
Appendix B.2 - Fire Protection
The Brock Fire Department is responsible for the provision of fire protection
and emergency services across the Township. The Fire Protection and
Prevention Act defines fire protection services as "...fire suppression, fire
prevention, fire safety education, communication, training of persons
involved in the provision of fire protection services, rescue and emergency
services and the delivery of all those services." The department currently
operates three fire stations.
Table B.2-1
Historical Service Levels
The Fire fifteen-year historical inventory of capital assets includes three fire
stations. The combined area of the stations is 17,455 sq ft and the buildings
are valued at $9.9 million. The land area associated with the buildings is
1.51 hectares and is valued at $755,000. Fire vehicles add $9.4 million to the
value of the inventory. Finally, personal fire fighter equipment,
communications equipment, and other station equipment add another $2.0
million to the value of the inventory.
The current replacement value of the Fire capital infrastructure is $22.1
million and has provided the Township with a fifteen-year average service
level of $1,421.92 per population and employment. This service level, when
multiplied by the 2024-2033 growth in net population and employment,
results in a maximum allowable funding envelope of $3.7 million that can be
considered for recovery through development charges.
No excess capacity is identified for this service and as such, no reduction
has been made to the funding envelope. Therefore, the full $3.7 million can
be considered for recovery through development charges.
Appendix B | 73
Table B.2-2
Development-Related Capital Program &
Calculation of the Development Charge
The 2024-2033 development-related capital program for Fire includes the
remaining principal payments of about $692,840 related to Brock Fire
Station #1 located in Sunderland. A portion, 65%, of the payments is related
to benefit to existing and is netted off the costs eligible for recovery through
DCs.
The capital program also recovers the future replacement of Cannington Fire
Station at a total cost of $4.1 million. Of this cost, $2.1 million, or 50%, has
been deemed benefit to existing and is netted off the total cost for recovery
through DCs.
Altogether, the ten-year capital forecast for Fire Services amounts to $5.0
million. A deduction of $2.5 million is made to account for replacement
shares of projects, therefore, $2.4 million is considered to be related to
development in the Township. Existing reserve funds of $117,900 are netted
off the DC eligible costs and the amount of $2.3 million is carried forward to
the development charges calculation.
The development-related net capital cost of $2.3 million is allocated 83 per
cent against residential development, or $1.9 million, and 17 per cent against
non-residential development, or $395,693. The resulting development charge
rates are $782.61 per capita for new residential development and $15.58 per
square metre for new non-residential development.

Appendix B.3 - By-Law Services
The By-Law Services and Animal Control Division is responsible for
enforcing a range of Township by-laws. The capital program in this service
area falls under subsection 2(4) 18 of the DCA.
Table B.3-1
Historical Service Levels
The By-Law Services fifteen-year historical inventory of capital assets
includes buildings for the animal shelter. The area of this building is 2,500
sq ft and is valued at $1.1 million. The land area associated with this
building is 0.02 hectares and is valued at $10,000. By-Law Services vehicles
add $130,000 to the value of the inventory. Finally, furniture and equipment
add another $60,200 to the value of the inventory.
The current replacement value of the By-Law Services capital infrastructure
is $1.3 million and has provided the Township with a fifteen-year average
service level of $71.58 per population and employment. This service level,
when multiplied by the 2024-2033 growth in net population and employment,
results in a maximum allowable funding envelope of $188,309 that can be
considered for recovery through development charges.
No excess capacity is identified for this service and as such, no reduction
has been made to the funding envelope. Therefore, the full $188,309 can be
considered for recovery through development charges.
Table B.3-2
Development-Related Capital Program &
Calculation of the Development Charge
The 2024 - 2033 development-related capital program for By-Law Services
includes the provision for building expansion valued at $910,000 and
additional vehicles valued at $160,000.
Appendix B | 79
Altogether, the ten-year capital forecast for By-Law Services amounts to
$1.1 million. There are no replacement shares or available DC reserves,
therefore. Due to funding envelope restrictions, $881,700 is removed from
recovery in the ten-year program and anticipated to be considered for
funding from future DC Studies. The remaining $188,309 is recovered from
development over the 2024 to 2033 planning period.
The development-related net capital cost of $188,309 is allocated 83%
against residential development, or $156,297, and 17% against non-
residential development, or $32,013. The resulting development charge rates
are $63.32 per capita for new residential development and $1.26 per square
metre for new non-residential development.

Appendix B.4 - Development Related Studies
As of December 13, 2023, the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing has
indicated a review of the removal of development related studies form
recovery under the DCA. At the time of publishing this DC Background
Study, studies have not yet been re-instated but in anticipation in the
change of legislation, a Development Related Studies capital program has
been included below.
Table B.4-1
2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program
and Calculation of the Development Charges
Table B.4-1 provides a list of development-related studies the Township
anticipates undertaking during the 2024-2033 period. Included in the
program is a Zoning By-law Review, Official Plan Review, Fire Master Plan,
one DC Background Study and a provision for other development-related
studies.
As shown on Table B.4-1, the 2024-2033 net municipal cost of all
development-related studies is $605,000. An amount of $82,500 represents
a benefit to existing share. There are minimal available DC reserves of
$2,117 netted off the ten-year recoverable amount and therefore the total
DC eligible costs is $520,383.
The 2024 - 2033 DC costs eligible for recovery amount of $520,383 is
allocated 83%, or $431,918, against new residential development and
$88,465 or 17% allocated against non-residential development. The
calculated charges that result are $174.97 per capita for new residential
development and $3.48 per square metre for new non-residential
development.

Services Related to a Highway:
Public Works - Buildings & Fleet
Appendix B | 88
Appendix B.5 - Public Works: Buildings &
Fleet
The Township's Public Works Operations department is responsible for the
maintenance of all roads, sidewalks, streetlights, culverts and curbs within
the Township boundaries. The capital costs associated with Services
Related to a Highway: Public Works functions are accounted for in this
section. Information regarding roads and related infrastructure can be found
in Appendix B.6.
Table B.5-1
Historical Service Levels
The fifteen-year historical inventory of capital assets for Public Works:
Buildings and Fleet includes about 31,970 square feet of building space with
a replacement value of $14.1 million. The 5.24 hectares of land associated
with the Public Works buildings is valued at $2.6 million. Furniture and
equipment add an additional $532,700 to the inventory. The fleet and
equipment associated with Public Works is valued at $2.7 million.
The total value of Public Works capital infrastructure is estimated to be
approximately $19.9 million. The fifteen-year historical average service level
is $1,043.47 per population and employment and this, multiplied by the ten-
year forecast of population and employment growth, results in a maximum
allowable funding envelope of $2.7 million that is brought forward to the
development charges calculation.
Appendix B | 89
Table B.5-2
Development-Related Capital Program &
Calculation of the Development Charge
The ten-year development-related capital program for Public Works includes
a building, land, and furnishings as well as additional fleet and equipment
totaling $4.4 million. No replacement share has been identified as all the
works identified are related and necessitated by development in the
Township.
The full $4.4 million is development-related DC eligible costs. $47,758 is
available in the Public Works DC reserve fund and is netted from the total
costs eligible for recovery. Approximately $2.7 million is related to
development between 2024 and 2033 and is included in the calculation of
DC rates. The remaining $1.6 million will be recovered post period (2033).
The in-period $2.7 million is allocated 83%, or $2.3 million, to the residential
sector and 17%, or $466,668, to the non-residential sector. This yields a
development charge of $922.99 per capita and $18.38 per square metre.

Appendix B.6 - Roads and Related
Infrastructure
The capital costs associated with roads and related infrastructure "services
related to a highway" are accounted for in this section. The capital planning
and management of all transportation infrastructure in the Township of
Brock is carried out by the Public Works Department.
Table B.6-1
Historical Service Levels
The Roads and Related fifteen-year historical inventory of capital assets
have a current value of $254.2 million which includes 363.2 km of roadway,
39 bridges, and 11 culverts. It has provided the Township with a fifteen-year
average service level of $17,006.00 per population and employment. This
service level, when multiplied by the ten-year population and employment
growth, results in a maximum allowable funding envelope of $44.7 million.
Table B.6-2
Development-Related Capital Program &
Calculation of the Development Charge
The gross cost of the Roads and Related development-related capital
program is $21.1 million. There are various projects required in Sunderland
and Beaverton to service future development which amounts to $7.8 million.
Of the $21.1 million, $5.5 million relates to HL2 surface treatments and $5.5
million relates to ultra thin surface treatments, both of which have a benefit
to existing share of 90%.
Of the net capital program of $21.1 million, $9.9 million represents a benefit
to existing share and is ineligible for DC funding. DC Reserves ($1.9 million)
are netted of the ten-year recoverable amount with the remaining $9.2
million brought forward to the development charge calculation. Of the total
Appendix B | 95
in-period eligible cost, 83%, or $7.7 million, is allocated against residential
development and 17%, or $1.6 million is allocated against non-residential
development. The calculated charges that result are $3,111.16 per capita for
new residential development and $61.95 per square metre for new non-
residential development.
The following table summarizes the calculation of the Roads and Related
development charges.

Fund
The DCA requires that a reserve fund be established for each service for
which development charges are collected. Table C.1 presents the
uncommitted reserve fund balances that are available to help fund the
development-related net capital costs identified in this study. The opening
balances of the development charges reserve funds as of December 31,
2023 have been adjusted to account for current commitments to reserve
fund projects. All of the available reserve fund balances are accounted for in
this study.
As shown on Table C.1, the December 31, 2023 total reserve fund balance
was in a positive position of $5.3 million. The application of the available
uncommitted balance in each of the reserve funds is discussed in the
appendix section related to each service. The funds are assigned to projects
in the initial years of the capital program for each service and the actual
spend of the funds is subject to the DCA and Township's annual capital
budgeting process.

A.
Asset Management Plan
The DCA requires that municipalities complete an Asset Management Plan
before passing a development charges by-law. A key function of the Asset
Management Plan is to demonstrate that all assets proposed to be funded
under the development charges by-law are financially sustainable over their
full life cycle.
Asset Types
A summary of the future municipal-owned assets and estimated useful life
assumptions for eligible DC services considered as part of the study are
outlined in Table D.1. Although all capital assets considered in the study
have been identified, not all assets necessitate future replacement or
ongoing maintenance activities. The exception and the justification is as
follows:
Some projects do not relate to the emplacement of a tangible capital
asset - some examples include the acquisition of land or the
undertaking of development-related studies. These projects/costs do
not necessarily require future replacement or ongoing maintenance.
Such projects have been excluded from the asset management
provision calculations.
It should be noted that the capital cost estimates prepared for each of the
projects identified in this section include grouped costs of various individual
elements, which, as a stand-alone item, may have its own useful life (ex.
New buildings include HVAC, structural elements, roof, etc.). Accordingly,
the average useful life assumptions noted below are applicable to all project
components.

No annual provisions have been identified for Development Related Studies
as the plan updates and studies included in the Development Related
Studies development charge category are not infrastructure and therefore
have no long-term financial requirements.
Annual Provision
When assets require rehabilitation or are due for replacement, the source of
funds is limited to reserves or contributions from operating. Capital
expenditures to carry out the rehabilitation and replacement of aging
infrastructure are not development-related and are therefore not eligible for
funding through development charge revenues or other developer
contributions.
Appendix D | 105
Based on the information obtained from Township staff regarding useful life
assumptions and the capital cost of acquiring and/or emplacing each asset,
a provision for infrastructure replacement has been calculated for both the
general and engineered services. Provisions for infrastructure replacement
are initially calculated for each asset based on their useful life and the
anticipated cost of replacement. The aggregate of all individual provisions
form the required annual capital provision. In calculating the annual
provisions, a number of assumptions are made to account for inflation (2.0
per cent) and interest (3.5 per cent).
Consistent with the requirements of the DCA, assets that are proposed to be
funded under the development charges by-law have been included in the
analysis. As a result, the total calculated annual provision for development
charge related infrastructure has been netted down to consider the
replacement of existing infrastructure or benefit-to-existing development.
However, for reference, the annual replacement provisions associated with
the non-development charge funded costs, including costs related to the ten
per cent statutory discount, benefit-to-existing and post-period benefit have
also been calculated.
Table D.2 provides the calculated annual asset management contribution by
2034 as it relates to the non-DC funded and the DC recoverable portions for
all services. As shown in Table D.2, by 2034, the Township will need to fund
an additional $872,035 per year in order to properly fund the full life cycle
costs of the new assets related to the services under the development
charges by-law.
Appendix D | 106
Financial Sustainability of the Program
Future Revenue Growth
The calculated annual funding provision should be considered within the
context of the Township's projected growth. Over the next ten years, the
Township is projected to increase by approximately 2,113 people residing in
new units. In addition, the Township will also add 518 new employees that
will result in approximately 25,392 square metres of additional non-
residential building space.
This growth will have the effect of increasing the overall assessment base.
This leads to additional user fee and charge revenues to offset the capital
asset provisions required to replace the infrastructure proposed to be
funded under the development charges by-law. The collection of these
funds is intended to be allocated to the Township's reserves for future
replacement of these assets.
Asset Management Plan
In order to maintain, protect and manage the Township's infrastructure and
assets, staff monitor current levels of service and life cycle trends. These
assessments are used to schedule appropriate activities, such as road

reconstruction, bridge replacement, and equipment and vehicle replacement.
Ongoing maintenance and repairs to community facilities will ensure that
they continue to meet the needs of a growing population into the future.
Overall, the Township will continue to invest, renew, and manage
infrastructure and assets through its Asset Management Plan. This plan is
crucial for forecasting capital budgetary needs both in the short and long
terms. The AMP process helps to improve financial sustainability to
maximize benefits, reduce risk and provide satisfactory levels of service to
the community in an environmentally and financially responsible manner.
The Program is Deemed Financially Sustainable
The calculated annual provisions identified in Table D.3 are considered to be
financially sustainable as it is expected that the increased capital asset
management requirements can be absorbed by the tax and user base over
the long-term. The Township's annual operating budget review will allow
staff to continue to monitor and implement mitigating measures should the
program become less sustainable.
B.
Long-Term Capital and Operating Impacts
As shown in Table D.3, by 2033, the Town's net operating costs are
estimated to increase by $2.6 million for property tax supported services.
Increases in net operating costs will be experienced as new facilities such
as community centres are opened.
Appendix D | 108
Table D.4 summarizes the components of the development-related capital
forecast that will require funding from non-DC sources. In total, $17.1 million
will need to be financed from non-DC sources over the 2024-2033. In
addition, $2.5 million in interim DC financing related to post-period shares of
projects may be required or these costs may be recovered from other growth
funding tools.

development-related capital forecast set out in the study.
Assets are Deemed to be Financially Sustainable
It is anticipated that new assets identified through the 2024 DC Background
Study process will be incorporated into the Town's ongoing asset
management plan analyses.
The calculated annual provisions identified are considered to be financially
sustainable as it is expected that the increased capital asset management
requirements can be absorbed by the tax and user base over the long-term.

The corporation of the Township of Brock
By-law Number 3274-2024
Being a By-law of the Corporation of the Township of Brock respecting
Development Charges
___________________________________________________________________
Whereas subsection 2(1) of the Development Charges act, 1997, c. 27 (hereinafter
called "the Act") provides that the council of a municipality may pass by-laws for the
imposition of development charges against land for increased capital costs required
because of the needs for services arising from development of the area to which the by-
law applies;
and whereas the Council of the Township of Brock has before it a report entitled
"Development Charges Background Study", the Township of Brock, dated March 28,
2024 (the "Study"), prepared by Hemson Consulting Ltd., wherein it was indicated that
the development of any land within the Township of Brock will increase the need for
services as defined herein;
and whereas the Council of The Corporation of the Township of Brock ("Township of
Brock") has given Notice in accordance with Section 12 of the Act of its intention to pass
a by-law under Section 2 of the said act;
and whereas copies of the Study were made available on March 28, 2024 and copies
of the proposed Development Charges by-law were made available on April 15, 2024 to
the public in accordance with Section 12 of the Act;
and whereas the study was made available to the public and Council gave notice to the
public and held a public meeting pursuant to Section 12 of the Act on the 27th day of
May 2024 and prior to which, the Study and the proposed development charge by-law
were made available to the public and Council heard comments and representations
from all persons who applied to be heard (the "Public Meeting");
and whereas the Council of the Township of Brock has heard all persons who applied
to be heard no matter whether in objection to, or in support of, the development charge
proposal at the Public Meeting, and the public was generally afforded the opportunity to
make written submissions relating to this proposed by-law and the Study;
and whereas the Council of the Township of Brock has given consideration of the use
of more than one development charge by-law to reflect different needs for services in
different areas, also known as area rating or area specific development charges, and
has determined that for the services and associated infrastructure proposed to be
funded by development charges under this by-law, that it is fair and reasonable that the
charges be calculated on a municipal-wide uniform basis;
and whereas the Study includes a Cost of Growth Analysis that deals with all assets
whose capital costs are intended to be funded under this by-law, and that such assets
are considered to be financially sustainable over their full life-cycle;
and whereas the Council of the Township of Brock approve the asset management
plan outlined in the Study and give consideration to incorporate the asset management
plan identified in the Study within the Township's ongoing practices and corporate asset
management strategy;
and whereas by Council Resolution No. C-2024-126 adopted by Council on the 10th
day of June 2024, Council has indicated that it intends to ensure that the increase in the
need for services attributable to the anticipated development will be met;
and whereas by Council Resolution No. C-2024-126 adopted by Council on the 10th
day of June 2024, Council has indicated its intent that the future excess capacity
identified in the Study shall be paid for by the development charges or other similar
charges;
2
and whereas by Council Resolution No. C-2024-126 adopted by Council on the 10th
day of June 2024, Council determined that no further public meetings were required
under section 12 of the Act.
Now therefore the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Brock enacts as

(a) in the case of residential development, or the residential portion of a mixed-use
development, based upon the number and type of dwelling units; or
(b) in the case on non-residential development, or the non-residential portion of a
mixed-use development, based upon the Gross Floor Area of such
development.
Amount of Charge - Residential
14. The development charges described in Schedules "B" to this By-law shall be
imposed on residential uses of lands, buildings or structures, including a dwelling
unit accessory to a non-residential use, and, in the case of a mixed use building or
structure, on the residential component of the mixed use building or structure,
according to the type of residential use.
Amount of Charge - Non-Residential
15. (1) The development charges described in Schedule "C" to this By-law shall be
imposed on non-residential uses of lands, buildings or structures and, in the
case of a mixed use building or structure, on the non-residential components of
the mixed use building or structure, and calculated with respect to each of the
services according to the Gross Floor Area of the non-residential use.
(2) Notwithstanding subsection (1) development charges shall not be imposed
upon non-residential development if the development does not have the effect
of creating Gross Floor Area of non-residential development or of increasing
existing Gross Floor Area of non-residential development.
Indexing of Development Charges
16. (1) The development charges set out in Schedule "B" hereto shall be adjusted
without amendment to this By-law annually on July 1st in each year,
commencing July 1st, 2025, and the development charges as set out in
