Background In accordance with the provisions of the Development Charges Act, 1997, as amended (D.C.A.), the Town of Carleton Place (Town) undertook a Development Charges Background Study (D.C.B.S.) and has distributed the study and draft by-law to the public. The following provides a summary of the key dates in the Development Charges (D.C.s) report and draft by-law process: e December 18, 2024 -- Release D.C.B.S. and draft by-law; e January 14, 2025 -- Public Meeting of Council; e February 18, 2025 -- Passage of the Development Charges (D.C.) by-law; and e February 18, 2025 -- Date of by-law enactment. The purpose of the addendum to the December 18, 2024, D.C.B.S. is to provide refinements to the capital needs that have been included in the D.C. calculation for Services Related to a Highway, Library Services, Child Care and Early Years Programs Services, and Growth-Related Studies. The cash flow calculations for these services and class of service have also been revised to reflect the updated capital programs. The refinements to the calculation of the charge are detailed in this report and will form part of the D.C.B.S., for Council's consideration and approval prior to adoption of the D.C. By-law. A revised draft proposed by-law is included herein, which embraces the changes and updates to the calculate charges. 2. Addendum Subsequent to the release of the 2024 D.C.B.S., the Town continued to review comments identified through feedback from the Development Community and continued to review several capital items based on revised timing and cost estimates. This section of the addendum report provides an explanation of the refinements to the services & class of services noted above. 2.1 Services Related to a Highway Within Services Related to a Highway, refinements have been made to a number of projects, including: Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 1 e Allocating 100% of the growth-related costs for the following projects, as a post period benefit, as the infrastructure is no longer anticipated to occur within the 20-year forecast period: o Project #11 - McNeely Bridge/Road Widening/MUP Town's share with a gross cost of $7,768,000; o Project #14 - Coleman/Cavanagh Rd MUP (north side) with a gross cost of $772,000; o Project #15 - Townline Road MUP (north side) with a gross cost of $1,892,000; o Project #16 - Lake Ave MUP (north side) with a gross cost of $2,826,000; o Project #17 - Gillies/Mill St. Bridges MUPs with a gross cost of $1,432,000; o Project #18 - McNeely Ave Widening (with County) Hwy 7 to Cavanagh with a gross cost of $2,490,000; and o Project #19 - Townline (McNeely to east Town Limit) with County with gross cost of $498,000. The total gross cost of these projects was estimated at $17,678,000, with a growth share of 75%. Therefore, the growth share of these projects, totalling $13,258,500 have been removed from the D.C. calculations, as these costs are now considered growth- related costs associated with growth outside the forecast period to 2043 (as per Table 1). These refinements result in a decrease of $4,019 to the calculated D.C.s for per single detached dwelling and $2.30 per square foot of gross floor area (G.F.A.) for non- residential development.

PAGE 3 2.2 Library Services Within Library Services, the 15-year historical service standard calculations for collection materials have been updated, as identified in Table 2, to reflect the following refinements: e Ontario Library Service Collection: o The number of collection items in 2012 has been refined from 67,772 to 19,614, based on revised data from library staff, vs. the quantities reported to the Ministry through the annual reporting requirements, which were based on the counts of collection items available through a consortium in 2012. e Database subscriptions: o In 2010 and 2011, the number of dataset subscriptions has been refined to 3 dataset subscriptions. o In 2012, the number of dataset subscriptions has been refined from 14 to 1. As a result of the refinements to the quantity counts of the above items, the eligible amount for collection materials in the D.C. calculations has decreased from $603,063, as report in the D.C.B.S., to $602,987. Although the historical service standard maximum ceiling has creased, these refinements do not impact the D.C. recoverable costs or the calculated D.C.s for Library Services.

PAGE 5 2.3 Child Care and Early Years Programs Services Through the questions raised by the development community, further review of the capital needs for Child Care and Early Years Programs projects, planned within the 10- year forecast period, was undertaken. Based on the additional review, the following projects are being refined (as per Table 3): e Project #1 - Francis St Childcare Facility (88 New Spaces) (Balance of Growth- Related Funding), has been updated to reflect the costs associated with the outstanding portion of growth that was identified in the prior study a post period benefit that was internally cash flowed, that now benefits the growth contained within the 10-year forecast period. The initial D.C.B.S. incorrectly included the reserve fund adjustment for this project versus the outstanding amount associated with this project. As such, the project has been split into Project #1a (outstanding growth-related debt -- Principal) and Project #1b (Interest) and resulted in the following change: o the D.C. recoverable cost for this project has decreased from $655,936 to $169,479. e Projects #3 -- Carambeck Childcare Expansion Playground, has been updated to reflect a benefit to existing reduction of 90% versus 50%, similar to the expansion of the childcare expansion space. This results in the D.C. recoverable costs decreasing from $125,000 to $25,000. These refinements result in a decrease to the D.C. calculations of $411 per single detached unit. As this service is assigned 100% to the benefit of the residential development, there is no impact on the overall non-residential charges calculated, due to these refinements.

PAGE 7 2.4 Growth-related Studies As a result of the refinements outlined in Sections 2.1 to 2.3, related to Services Related to a Highway and Child Care and Early Years Programs, the allocation for planning- related studies and future D.C. background studies has been revised to reflect each service's updated proportionate share of growth-related costs. The revised allocations are as follows: e Services Related to a Highway -- 10.94% e Fire Protection Services -- 3.48% e Policing Services -- 3.60% e Parks and Recreation Services -- 17.05% e Library Services -- 1.74% e Provincial Offences Act, including By-law Enforcement -- 0.20% e Child Care and Early Years Programs Services -- 1.25% e Waste Diversion Services -- 0.09% e Wastewater Services -- 29.33% e Water Services -- 32.32% These changes result in a decrease of $200 in D.C. recoverable costs included in the D.C. calculation (as per Table 4). Further, these refinements result in an update to the portion of costs attributable to residential and non-residential development, as presented in Table 5. As such, the calculated D.C. for a single detached unit as decreased by $1. As the non-residential D.C. for this class of service is low, the refinements do not impact the calculated non-residential charges. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

Table ES-2 includes a summary of the D.C.-eligible capital costs for each eligible service arising from the anticipated development. These capital costs are provided in detail in Chapter 5. The D.C.A. requires that the background study include a summary of the gross and net capital costs to be incurred over the term of the by-law (i.e., 10 years) for existing and future development. This summary is provided by service in Table 6-7 of the D.C. Background Study. In total, gross capital costs of approximately $209.55 million are forecast for the 10-year by-law term. These capital costs have been identified through discussions with Town staff. A portion of these capital costs, approximately $28.37 million, relate to the needs of growth beyond the forecast period. These costs are not included in the D.C. calculation, however, will be considered in future D.C. studies. Other deductions in the determination of the D.C.- recoverable costs include approximately $27.13 million related to the portion of capital projects that will benefit the existing development, $83,800 related to costs associated with services not eligible for D.C.s, and $40.76 million related to grants, subsidies, and other contributions. The resultant net D.C.-recoverable costs included in the calculations for capital works anticipated over the 10-year forecast period total approximately $113.21 Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE iv million, of which $96.76 million is allocated to the forecast residential development and $16.45 million allocated to the forecast non-residential development.

At present, the Town imposes D.C.s on residential and non-residential developments in accordance with By-Law 41-2021. The Town is undertaking a D.C. public process and anticipates passing a new D.C. by-law for the services identified in the D.C. Background Study. The statutory mandatory public meeting has been set for January 14, 2025, with adoption of the D.C. by-law anticipated for February 18, 2025. This report provides the calculations of the residential and non-residential charges to recover the capital costs of the anticipated increase in need for services arising from the forecast development (Summarized in Schedule ES-3).

Chapter 7 herein, provides the D.C. by-law policy recommendations and rules that govern the imposition of the charges. Council will consider the findings and recommendations provided herein and, in conjunction with public input, approve such policies and rates it deems appropriate. These directions will refine the draft D.C. by-law, which is appended in Appendix G. These decisions may include: e adopting the charges and policies recommended herein; e considering additional exemptions to the D.C. by-law; and e considering reductions in the charges (obtained by removing certain services or capital costs on which the charge is based and/or by a general reduction in the charge). The D.C.A. does not allow for D.C. revenue foregone as a result of an exemption or reduction in the charge to be made up through higher D.C.s on other development. As such, any decision to provide further exemptions or reductions should consider alternative funding sources to address the foregone revenue. Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE ix input. The public meeting is also being held to answer any questions regarding the study's purpose, methodology, and the proposed D.C. by-law. In accordance with the legislation, the background study and proposed D.C. by-law will be available for public review on December 18, 2024. The process to be followed in finalizing the report and recommendations includes: e Consideration of responses received prior to, at, or immediately following the public meeting; e Refinements to the report, if required; and e Council consideration of the by-law subsequent to the public meeting.

PAGE 1-2 the 10-year forecast population, this historical level of investment provides for a maximum D.C.-eligible cost of approximately $7.12 million. Based on discussions with staff, the Town will require funds for additional child care spaces and associated furnishings, as presented in Table 5-4. The gross capital cost estimates for the capital program total approximately $4.55 million. A deduction of $3.23 million has been made to recognize the costs that will benefit the existing community. After incorporating the $655,900 existing deficit balance in the D.C. reserve fund, $1.32 million in net D.C.-recoverable costs have been included in the calculation of the charge. As the predominant users of child care services tend to be residents of the Town, the forecast growth-related costs have been allocated 100% to residential and 0% to non- residential. 5.2.5 Waste Diversion Services The Town provides waste diversion services to its community through 880 sq.ft. of eligible facility space. This inventory of assets results in a 15-year average historical level of service of $26 per capita. In total, the maximum D.C. eligible amount that could be included in the calculation of the charge over the 10-year forecast period is $100,200. Table 5-5 provides the capital program related to waste diversion services. It consists of a provision to expand the hazardous waste facility with a gross capital cost estimate of $500,000. $239,000 has been deducted to recognize the benefit to existing development. Additionally, $161,500 has been deducted to account for the benefit to growth beyond the forecast period, resulting in net D.C.-recoverable costs of $99,500, which have been included in the calculation of the charge. The net D.C.-recoverable costs have been allocated $83,600 (84%) to residential and $15,900 (16%) to non-residential development based on forecast incremental population and employment growth over the 10-year period. 5.2.6 Growth-Related Studies (Class of Service) Section 7 of the D.C.A. states that a D.C. by-law may provide for any D.C. eligible service or the capital costs with respect to those services. Further, a class may be composed of any number or combination of services and may include parts or portions Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 5-4 e Transit Feasibility Study; e Fire Department Staffing Study; e Master Fire Plan; e Transportation Master Plan Update; e OSIM Bridge Studies (every two years); e Centennial Park Study; e Parks and Recreation Master Plan; e Recreation Facility Concept Plan; e Library Review Plan for growth; e Facilities Plan; e Library Strategic Plan; and e Water and Wastewater Master Plan. The list of growth-related studies, as provided in Table 5-6, and the existing deficit balance in the D.C. reserve fund have an estimated gross capital cost of approximately $1.99 million. For planning related studies, a deduction of 10% of the growth-related costs has been applied to recognize the extent to which the studies relate to non-D.C.- eligible services. The deduction for non-D.C. eligible services totals $83,800. Additionally, $448,500 has been deducted to recognize the benefit to existing development. As a result, $1.46 million in net D.C. recoverable costs has been included in the calculation of the charge. Planning related studies and future D.C. background studies have been allocated to the services in the following manner: e Services Related to a Highway -- 10.94% e Fire Protection Services -- 3.48% e Policing Services -- 3.60% e Parks and Recreation Services -- 17.05% e Library Services -- 1.74% e Provincial Offences Act, including By-law Enforcement -- 0.20% e Child Care and Early Years Programs Services -- 1.25% e Waste Diversion Services -- 0.09% e Wastewater Services -- 29.33% e Water Services -- 32.32% Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

Services Calculation This section evaluates the development-related capital requirements for services over the mid-2024 to mid-2044 planning period. 5.3.1 Services Related to a Highway The Town has a current inventory of 21 kilometres of arterial/collector roads (including sidewalks), 10 km of active transportation trails, five bridges and major culverts, and 672 traffic signals and streetlights. Additionally, the Town's public works department utilizes 14,250 sq.ft. of facility space and operates 34 vehicle/equipment items. The total inventory of assets over the past 15 years results in an invested level of service of $6,692 per capita. When applied to the 20-year forecast population, a maximum D.C.- eligible cost of approximately $47.47 million is applicable. Table 5-8 provides the capital program for services related to a highway. The capital needs include various road and bridge projects, additional vehicles, and facility space required to service growth over the forecast period. The total gross capital cost of the program is approximately $35.0 million. A deduction of approximately $1.34 million has Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. PAGE 5-14 been applied to recognize the benefit to the existing development. Further deductions of $163,500 for grants and other contributions, and approximately $1.95 million for the existing reserve fund balance, have been made. Additionally, deduction related to benefit to growth beyond the forecast period totaling approximately $17.68 million has been made. As a result, the total D.C.-recoverable cost of approximately $13.87 million has been included in the calculation of the charge. Approximately $11.62 million (86%) has been allocated to residential development, and $2.24 million (14%) to non-residential development, based on the incremental growth anticipated in population and employment over the 20-year forecast period. 5.3.2 Fire Protection Services The Town currently has one fire station that is a shared facility with the Ontario Provincial Police and By-law Enforcement services, and which provides a total of 10,640 sq.ft. of fire station floor space. The fire department also has a current inventory of nine vehicles and provides 28 sets of equipment for firefighter outfitting. The total inventory of assets over the past 15 years results in a 15-year average historical level of service of $1,601 per capita. When applied to the 20-year forecast population, this provides a maximum D.C.-eligible cost of approximately $11.36 million. The 20-year capital program for fire protection services is provided in Table 5-7. The capital program includes a training centre, additional fire station space, additional vehicles, and firefighter equipment. The total gross capital cost estimate for the capital program is approximately $10.50 million. After deducting $3.94 million to recognize the benefit to existing development and $135,500 to account for the existing reserve fund balance, the net D.C.-recoverable costs are $6.42 million and have been included in the calculation of the charge. The D.C.-recoverable costs have been allocated 86% ($5.52 million) to residential development and 14% ($898,500) to non-residential development. This allocation is based on the incremental population and employment growth over the forecast period. 5.3.3 Policing Services The Town utilizes 6,319 sq.ft. of facility space, located in shared facility with the Fire Protection and By-law Enforcement services, to provide policing services. Additionally, five vehicles and 13 sets of equipment for police officers outfitting are utilized in the provision of these services. The asset inventory provides a historical average level of Watson & Associates Economists Ltd.

PAGE B-18 Table C-1 depicts the annual operating impact resulting from the proposed gross capital projects at the time they are all in place. It is important to note that, while Town program expenditures will increase with growth in population, the costs associated with the new infrastructure (i.e., facilities) would be delayed until the time these works are in place.

PAGE C-3 Commensurate with the above, the Town prepared an A.M.P. in 2024 for its existing core infrastructure assets; however, it did not consider future growth-related assets. As a result, the asset management requirement for the D.C. must be undertaken in the absence of this information. In recognition of the schematic above, the following table (presented in 2024$) has been developed to provide the annualized expenditures and revenues associated with new growth. Note that the D.C.A. does not require an analysis of the non-D.C. capital needs or their associated operating costs so these are omitted from the table below. As well, as all capital costs included in the D.C.-eligible capital costs are not included in the Town's A.M.P., the present infrastructure gap and associated funding plan have not been considered at this time. Hence the following does not represent a fiscal impact assessment (including future tax/rate increases) but provides insight into the potential affordability of the new assets: 1. The non-D.C.-recoverable portion of the projects that will require financing from municipal financial resources (i.e., rates, fees, etc.). This amount has been presented on an annual debt charge amount based on 20-year financing. 2. Lifecycle costs for the 2024 D.C. capital works have been presented based on a straight-line basis. The assets have been considered over their estimated useful lives. 3. Incremental operating costs for the D.C. services (only) have been included. 4. The resultant total annualized expenditures are approximately $16.43 million. 5. Consideration was given to the potential new tax and user fee revenue which will be generated as a result of new growth. These revenues will be available to assist in financing the expenditures above. The new operating revenues are $12.69 million. This additional revenue would increase the existing revenues from $38.03 million to $50.73 million. 6. In consideration of the above, the capital plan is deemed to be financially sustainable.
