on behalf of any other municipality or any local board; and
c)

that Council may prescribe a tariff of fees for the processing of applications made in

amended, Council may require the payment of fees on applications for and issuance

AND WHEREAS Council of The Corporation of the City of Stratford deems it expedient

Stratford;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT ENACTED by Council of The Corporation of the City of
Stratford as follows:
1.
That the fees and charges as set out in the Schedules attached to this By-law

Schedules.
4.
The fees and charges described in the attached Schedules will be subject to
Harmonized Sales Tax (HST), where applicable and shall be paid in addition to

6.
That the fees and charges shall be adjusted annually on January 1, by the

The CPI calculation is based on a 12-month average of the total CPI as
calculated by the Bank of Canada from November 1st to October 31st.
7.
That in those instances where the Consumer Price Index is less than zero (0),
fees and charges shall not be adjusted by the CPI change for that year.

for paying the fees and charges.
11.
No request by any person, or their agent, for any information, service, activity
or use of City property or facilities described in the Schedules attached to this
By-law shall be acknowledged, processed or provided by the city departments

activity or use of City property or facility has paid or arranged to pay the fee or
charge, where applicable, in the amount as set out in the Schedules to this By-
law.

and Charges imposed hereunder, the terms and provision of such other By-laws
shall apply to the Fees and Charges imposed hereunder, provided that, where
there is a discrepancy in the stated amount of any such Fee or Charge between
such other By-laws and this By-law, the Fees and Charges set forth in the
Schedules of this By- law shall govern and any inconsistent By-laws shall be
amended accordingly.
SEVERABILITY
13.

the intention of Council that the remainder of the By-law shall continue to be in
force.

That By-law 99-2024, and all amendments thereto, are hereby repealed upon
this By-law coming into force and effect.

due and owing to the Municipality and with all the remedies for collection of
same, as if the said By-law 99-2024 as amended had never been repealed.
