Executive Summary
A. Purpose of Development Charges (DC) Background Study
Hemson Consulting Ltd. was retained by the Town of The Blue Mountains to
complete a Development Charges (DC) Background Study (herein referred
to as the "DC Study"). This DC Study provides the basis and background to
update the Townʼs development charges to reflect the servicing needs of
development.
i.
Study Consistent with Development Charges Legislation
The Town of The Blue Mountains 2024 Development Charges Background
Study is presented as part of the process to lead to the approval of new DC
By-laws in compliance with the Development Charges Act (DCA). The study
is prepared in accordance with the DCA and associated regulations.
ii.
Key Steps of the Development Charges Calculation
The DCA in Ontario is the most prescriptive of all DC legislation in Canada
with respect to recovering development-related costs. Several key steps are
required to calculate DCs. These include:
-
Preparing a development (growth) forecast;
-
Establishing historical service levels;
-
Determining the increased needs for services arising from development;
and
-
Determining how these costs are attributed to development types (i.e.
residential and non-residential).
Executive Summary | 3
iii.
The Development-Related Capital Forecast is Subject to Change
It is recommended that Council adopt the development-related capital
forecast prepared for the purposes of the DC Background Study. However,
the DC Study is a point-in-time analysis and there may be changes to
project timing, scope, and costs through the Townʼs normal annual budget
process.
B.
Development Forecast
The forecasts are based on the Town achieving population and employment
targets set out in the Grey Countyʼs Growth Management Strategy. A 10-
year planning horizon (2024-2033) is utilized for all Town-wide General
Services, while a planning horizon of 2024-Build-Out is used for Engineered
Services. The table below provides a summary of the anticipated residential
and non-residential growth over the respective planning periods. The
development forecast is further discussed in Appendix A.

Development-Related Capital Program
The development-related capital program for General Services is planned
over a 10-year period from 2024 to 2033. The gross costs amount to $123.5
million where $26.6 million is eligible for recovery through development
charges net of anticipated grants and other recoveries. Details regarding the
capital programs for each individual General Services are provided in
Appendix B and C of this report.
The development-related capital program for Engineered Services is
planned over a period from 2024 to Build-Out. In total, $578.1 million is
identified in gross project costs of which $335.0 million is eligible for
recovery through development charges. Some costs are recovered on a
Town-wide basis while others are payable only by certain geographic areas.
Details regarding the capital programs for each individual engineered service
are provided in Appendix C and D of this report.
D.
Calculated Development Charges
Development charges rates have been established under the parameters
and limitations of the DCA. A Town-wide uniform cost recovery approach is
used to calculate development charges for the General Services and some
Engineered Services. Water distribution and wastewater treatment are
recovered from 2 areas while the linear infrastructure associated is
recovered along eleven distinct service areas.
The tables below provide the development charges for residential and non-
residential development based on the development forecasts.

Introduction | 7
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
development-related capital costs from new development. The Town of The
Blue Mountains Development Charges (DC) Background Study is presented
as part of a process to establish a development charges by-law that
complies with this legislation.
The Town of The Blue Mountains is experiencing residential development
pressure and is also an attractive location for a variety of recreational and
seasonal oriented development. The anticipated development in The Blue
Mountains will increase the demand on all Town services. The Town wishes
to implement development charges to fund development-related capital
projects 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 charges with reference to:
-
A forecast of the amount, type and location of development anticipated in
the Town;
-
The average capital service levels provided in the Town 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 Town or its local boards to provide for the expected
development, including the determination of the development and non-
development-related components of the capital projects;
Introduction | 8
-
An asset management plan that demonstrates that all assets are
financially sustainable over their full life cycle; and
-
An examination of the long-term capital and operating costs resulting
from the infrastructure required for each service to which the
development charges relate.
This study identifies the net capital costs attributable to development that is
forecast to occur in the Town. 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 study therefore calculates development charges for 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 Councilʼs review of this study, it is intended that Council
will pass a new development charges by-law for the Town.
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. In December 2023, the Minister of Municipal Affairs and
Housing announced further changes to the DCA and the study took into
consideration those amendments as well as those made available through
the first reading of Bill 185: Cutting Red Tape to Build More Homes Act,
2024 which was on April 10, 2024 prior to the passage of By-law 2024-29.
Introduction | 9
The amendments as per Bill 23: More Homes Built Faster Act, 2022 are
noted below with notes based on Bill 185. 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); Note:
this has been removed by Bill 185 and no longer applies to rates levied as
of June 6, 2024.
-
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;
-
The amount of interest paid on DC deferrals and freeze is capped at
prime plus 1%;
-
Costs associated with studies and affordable housing services are now
ineligible for recovery through DCs; Note: development-related studies
has been re-introduced as an eligible capital cost by Bill 185 and is
included only in rates levied as of June 6, 2024.
-
Municipalities must spend or allocate 60% of available DC reserve funds
per year for roads, water and wastewater services; and
-
Discounts for purpose built rentals based on the number of bedrooms.
The DCA was also amended to exempt affordable and attainable housing
developments from the payment of DCs. Affordable housing exemptions are
now in force as of June 1, 2024.
One final change through Bill 185 which came into effect upon Royal Assent
on June 6, 2024 was the shortening of time to which DC deferrals apply
under Section 26.2 from 2 years from Council approval to 18 months.

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, therefore, we have tailored our
approach to the Town of The Blue Mountainsʼ unique circumstances. The
approach to the calculated development charges is focused on providing a
reasonable alignment of development-related costs with the development
that necessitates them. This study uses both a Town-wide and area-specific
approach in the cost recovery calculations. The Background Study provides
an update to the historical service levels and the cost of providing future
development-related capital infrastructure.
A.
Both Town-Wide and Area-Specific Development
Charges Are Proposed
The Blue Mountains provides a range of services to the community it serves
and has a sizeable inventory of facilities, land, infrastructure, and vehicles
and equipment. The DCA provides the Town with flexibility when defining
services that will be included in the development charges by-laws, provided
that the other provisions of the Act and Regulations are met. The DCA also
permits the Town to designate, in its by-laws, the areas within which the
development charges shall be imposed. The charges may apply to all lands
in the Town or to other designated development areas as specified in the
by-laws.
i.
Services Based on a Town-Wide Approach
For most services, a range of capital infrastructure is available throughout
the Town. All Town residents and employees have access to this
infrastructure. As new development occurs, new infrastructure will need to
The DC Methodology Aligns Development-Related Costs and Benefits | 12
be added so that overall service levels in the Town are maintained. A widely
accepted method of sharing the development-related capital costs for these
services is to apportion them over all new development anticipated in the
Town.
The following services are included in the Town-wide development charges
calculations:
-
Public Library
-
Fire Services
-
Police Department
-
Parks and Recreation
-
Services Related to a Highway:
Public Works
-
By-law Enforcement
-
Solid Waste Management
-
Development Related Studies
-
Services Related to a Highway:
Roads and Related
These services form a reasonable basis in which to plan and administer the
Town-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 anywhere in the Town.
ii.
Services Based on an Area-Specific Approach
For some Town services, the need for and benefits of development-related
capital works is more localized. For such services, an alternative "area-
specific" approach to calculating development charges is used. Area-specific
charges have been calculated for water supply, treatment and distribution,
and sewage treatment and collection. Specific service areas for each water
and wastewater project have been calculated. This approach is consistent
with the Townʼs existing development charge structure for such services.
The area-specific approach facilitates front-end financing arrangements for
the designated services should the Town choose to use those provisions of
the DCA. Area-specific charges also enable developer group agreements.
The DC Methodology Aligns Development-Related Costs and Benefits | 13
B.
Key Steps When Determining Development Charges for
Future Development-Related Projects
Several key steps are required when 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 10-year study period from 2024 to 2033 and to build-out.
The forecasts of future residential and non-residential development used in
this study were prepared by Hemson Consulting in consultation with the
Town of The Blue Mountains staff. The forecasts have been informed by
Grey Countyʼs recent Growth Management Strategy (GMS) and adjusted for
known and anticipated development proposals and accounts for historical
households, seasonal development, and recent construction history.
For the residential portion of the forecast, the forecast includes an estimate
of population and dwelling units by type on both a Town-wide and service
area basis. The non-residential portion of the forecast estimates the amount
of building space to be developed in the Town over the planning periods.
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
Municipality over the 15-year period immediately preceding the
preparation of the background study...(s. 5. (1) 4.)
The DC Methodology Aligns Development-Related Costs and Benefits | 14
Figure 1: Statutory Requirements of Development Charge Calculation
and Study Process
The DC Methodology Aligns Development-Related Costs and Benefits | 15
Historical 15-year average service levels thus form the basis for the development
charges calculation. A review of the Townʼs capital service levels for buildings,
land, vehicles, equipment, and others has therefore been prepared as a
reference to determine the portion of future capital projects that may be included
in the development charges calculation. The historical service levels used in this
study have been calculated based on the period from 2009 to 2023.
In accordance with the provisions of the DCA, for the engineered services of
water and wastewater, historical service levels are less applicable, and
reference is made to the Townʼs engineering standards as well as Provincial
health or environmental legislation.
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 Town staff as
part of this 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 foundation 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 municipality 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 15-year average service levels or the service levels
embodied in the plans of the Town. 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 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:
The DC Methodology Aligns Development-Related Costs and Benefits | 16
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.
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 associated net costs are to be a
funding responsibility of the Town from non-development charges sources.
The amount of financing for such non-growth shares 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 Town of The Blue Mountains, the allocation is based
on the projected changes in dwelling units 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 based on gross building space in square
metres.
Development Forecast | 17
3.
Development Forecast
The DCA requires the Town 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 Town to prepare a
reasonable development-related capital program. Appendix A contains
additional materials related to the development forecast and the Townʼs
demographics.
Key demographic features of the Town of The Blue Mountains are the
seasonal fluctuations of its population and the corresponding recreational
nature of its residential development. For this reason, the Townʼs
development charges are based on a residential forecast which includes
seasonal population and dwellings not occupied by usual residents. This
rationale is based upon the need for the Town to build infrastructure to
accommodate peak demand levels associated with the development portion
of the Town, regardless of whether the use is permanent or seasonal.
The residential forecast incorporates 2021 Census and historical residential
permit data and accounts for seasonal housing development. The forecast
shows that the number of dwelling units (occupied dwellings, non-permanent
and hotel/motel units) will increase by 3,050 between 2024 and 2033. From
2024 to build-out, approximately 7,390 additional units are anticipated.
Approximately 67% of the development occurring over the 2024-2033 period
is projected to occur in the Craigleith service area. Castle Glen is the next
significant development area with approximately 10% of the anticipated new
units. Camperdown will experience 5% of the development. Other service
areas forecast to experience significant development include Lora Bay 7%,
Thornbury East 4%, and Thornbury West 4%.
Development Forecast | 18
The non-residential portion of the forecast is largely based upon
development applications received, known developer plans, and the
availability of servicing. The forecast is for approximately 21,973 square
metres of new non-residential gross floor area (GFA) to be added to the
Town between 2024 and 2033. During the period 2024 to build-out, GFA is
projected to increase by approximately 116,095 square metres.
Table 1 provides a summary of the Town-wide residential and non-
residential development forecast used in this analysis. Table 2 provides a
summary of the residential and non-residential area-specific development
forecast for the various water and wastewater servicing areas.

Historical Capital Service Levels | 20
4. Historical Capital Service 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 Town over
the 15-year period immediately preceding the preparation of the Background
Study, on a service-by-service basis.
For non-engineered services (Public Library, Parks and Recreation, etc.) the
legislative requirement is met by documenting service levels for the preceding
15 years: in this case, for the period from 2009 to 2023. Typically, service levels
for non-engineered services are measured as a ratio of inputs per capita or
inputs per population and employment. For engineered services such as Water
and Sewer, engineering standards are used in lieu of inputs per capita.
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 consideration of 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
development reflect not only the quantity (number and size) but also the quality
(value or cost) of services provided by the Town in the past. Both the
quantitative and qualitative aspects of service levels used in the current
analysis are based on information provided by Town staff. This information is
generally based on historical records and the Townʼs and surrounding
municipalities experience with costs to acquire or construct similar facilities,
equipment, and infrastructure.
Table 3 summarizes service levels for all services included in the
development charges calculations. Appendices B and C provide detailed
historical inventory data upon which the calculation of service levels is
based for the general and Roads and Related services, respectively.

5. Development-Related Capital Forecast
The DCA requires that the Council of a municipality express its intent to
provide future capital facilities at the level incorporated in the development
charges calculation. As noted above in Section II, 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.
A.
Development-Related Capital Forecast is provided for
Councilʼs Approval
Based on the development forecast summarized in Section 3 and detailed in
Appendix A, Town staff, in collaboration with the consultant, has identified a
development-related capital forecast that sets out those projects required to
service anticipated development. For all Town-wide services, the capital
forecast covers the 10-year period from mid-year 2024 to mid-year 2033. As
permitted by the DCA s. 5(1) 4., development charges for the engineered
services are based on a longer planning horizon, to build-out.
One of the recommendations contained in this background study is for
Council to adopt the development-related capital forecast created 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 herein as they will be needed to service anticipated
development in the Town. It is, however, acknowledged that changes to the
forecast presented here may occur through the Townʼs normal capital
budget process.

B.
The Development-Related Capital Forecast for General
Services
A summary of the development-related capital forecast for Town-wide
uniform services is presented in Table 4. The table shows that the gross
cost of the Townʼs general services capital forecast is estimated to be
$123.5 million. Approximately $50.00 million in grants are anticipated to
offset the cost of the Parks and Recreation program; therefore, the net
municipal cost for the Town is reduced to $73.5 million.
Of this $73.5 million net municipal cost, approximately 48%, or $35.0 million,
is related to capital works for Parks and Recreation. This capital program
recovers for new indoor recreation space with a gross cost of $80.0 million.
Parkland development in the amount of $2.1 million and park facilities and
equipment valued at $2.9 million are also included. The gross cost also
includes a $50.0 million grant for indoor recreation.
The next largest capital program is associated with Fire Services that
amounts to $13.7 million, or 19% of the total, and provides for a new fire hall,
personnel and emergency equipment and vehicles.
The capital forecast associated with Public Works envisions a new public
works facility, a new snow storage facility, as well as a new Satellite Office.
An additional provision of $1.5 million will fund various fleet and equipment
acquisitions. The total cost of the Public Works capital program is $12.4
million.
The next largest capital program belongs to Public Library. The program
provides funding for a new library space and material acquisitions. The total
Public Library capital program amounts to $9.1 million, or 12%.

The portion of the Townʼs program that relates to the provision of
Development-related Studies amounts to $1.6 million.
The capital forecast associated with Solid Waste provides for new facilities,
fleet, and equipment. It represents 1.5% of the Townʼs general services
capital program and is valued at $1.10 million.
The Police Services capital program recovers for the debenture payments
related to the new Ontario Provincial Police station. The total Police capital
program amounts to approximately $373,700.
The By-law Enforcement capital program includes the recovery of a negative
reserve fund balance and provision for additional and equipment. The total
cost of the capital program is $249,500.
The capital forecast incorporates those projects identified to be related to
development anticipated in the next 10 years. It is not implied that all of
these costs are to be recovered from new development by way of
development charges (see the following Section 6). Portions of the capital
forecast may be related to replacement of existing facilities, shares of
projects that benefit the existing population, or development anticipated to
occur beyond the 2024 - 2033 planning period.
After these reductions, the remaining development-related capital costs are
brought forward to the development charges calculation. Further details on
the capital forecasts for each individual service category are available in
Appendix B and C.

C.
The Development-Related Capital Forecast for
Engineered Services
Table 5 provides the development-related capital recoveries for the
engineered services of Roads and Related, Water Supply and Treatment,
Sewage Treatment, and service area-specific Water distribution and Sewage
collection.
The Town-wide Roads and Related capital programs total $198.0 million and
provides servicing for anticipated development over the 2024 to build-out
period. Of the Roads capital program, just over $87.6 million has been
identified as recoverable under the DCA and is included in the development
charge calculation. Details of the capital program can be found in Appendix
C.2.
Also shown on Table 5 is the Water and Wastewater servicing costs. The
Water supply and treatment capital program is $29.3 million, of which $28.9
million is identified as development-related and recoverable from
development charges. These costs are to be recovered uniformly from all
development receiving municipal water servicing in the Town.
Sewage treatment is provided by two plants: Craigleith Sewage Treatment
Plant and Thornbury Sewage Plant. The capital cost associated with the
Craigleith Plant is $37.2 million with a share of $31.5 million identified as a
post-period benefit and removed from the DC rate. The remaining $5.6
million are recoverable against all development receiving servicing from the
Craigleith Plant. The Thornbury Plant will recover $25.2 million including
total gross cost of $85.1 million and benefit to existing share of $15.2 million,
available DC reserves of $4.3 million and a post period benefit amount of
$40.4 million. These development-related plant costs are to be recovered
across all applicable development in the areas serviced by the Thornbury
Treatment Plant.

Table 5 also provides a summary of the specific Water and Wastewater
servicing areas engineered servicesʼ capital programs. The development-
related capital expenditures for these areas range from just over $53.3
million in Castle Glen to $208,300 in Lora Bay Service Area 2. The variation
of costs between the service areas reflects different levels of development,
servicing needs, and servicing costs. Details of the Water and Wastewater
capital programs can be found in Appendix D.

6. Development Charges are Calculated in
Accordance with the Development
Charges Act
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
unit types on the basis average occupancy factors. For non-residential
development, the calculated development charges 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 residential and non-residential development charges for
the Town-wide general services is presented in Table 6. Further details of
the calculation for each individual general service category are available in
Appendix B and C.1.
Development Charges are Calculated in Accordance with the
Development Charges Act | 30
i.
10-Year Services
The capital forecast for Town-wide general services incorporates those
projects identified to be related to development anticipated in the 10-year
planning period. However, not all the capital costs are to be recovered from
new development by way of development charges. Table 6 shows that, of
the $73.5 total municipal cost, $7.6 million relates to replacement of existing
capital facilities, or to shares of projects that provide benefit to the existing
community. These portions of capital costs will require funding from other
non-development charge sources, such as fundraising and property taxes.
An additional share of $8.1 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, $31.2 million, is either attributable to
development beyond the 2033 period (and can therefore be recovered under
future development charges studies) or represents a service level increase
in the Town and could be recovered from other funding sources.
The remaining $26.6 million is carried forward to the development charges
calculation. Of the development-related costs, $26.1 million has been
allocated to new residential development, and $450,400 has been allocated
to new non-residential development. This results in a development charge of
$4,680.34 per capita and $20.49 per square metre of non-residential
development for the provision of general services.

Engineered Services - Roads and Related Services
Table 7 presents the calculated residential and non-residential development
charges for Town-wide roads and related infrastructure projects. The table
shows that, of the total net cost of the Town-wide capital program
estimated to be $198.0 million, $26.6 million is considered to replace
existing infrastructure or to benefit the existing population. The table shows
that local service component shares and current developer agreements total
$29.1 million and $923,180, respectively. A deduction is also made for the
available reserve fund balance of $13.0 million. A share is related to
development of $40.9 million and the remaining $87.6 million is carried
forward to the development charges calculation. Of the development-related
cost, 91%, or $79.6 million, has been allocated to new residential
development and 9%, or $8.0 million, has been allocated to new non-
residential development.
The resulting residential charge per capita for the provision of Town-wide
Roads and Related services is $5,478.84 and the non-residential charge is
$68.57 per square metre of gross floor area.

iii.
Residential and Non-Residential Area-Specific Development
Charges Rates for Water and Wastewater Services
Keeping with past practices, the Town will continue to calculate and levy
water and wastewater charges on an area-specific basis. There are currently
eleven service areas that levy water and/or wastewater rates on an area-
specific basis.
Table 8 shows that the net municipal cost of the Water Supply and
Treatment is $29.3 million. No grants, subsidies or local services shares are
identified. Approximately $331,060 has been identified as replacement or
non-growth shares and is removed from the DC eligible costs as well as
$58,190 identified to benefit existing residents. The remaining development-
related costs eligible for DC funding, $28.9 million, is allocated 81% to the
residential sector ($23.4 million) and 19% to the non-residential sector ($5.5
million). This yields a development charge of $1,615.01 per capita and
$46.98 per square metre of non-residential development. These charges are
levied uniformly across all serviced residential and non-residential
development in the Town.
It should be noted that the "net costs" shown on each of the service area
capital programs are not entirely recoverable against future development
charges. Unserviced lots that will connect into the water system in the
future will pay a capital connection fee, equivalent to that of the DC water
rate.
Sewage treatment in The Blue Mountains is provided by two plants:
Craigleith Sewage Treatment Plant and Thornbury Sewage Plant. These two
plants are responsible for serving all units in the Town, and together, they
cover all eight service areas. The Craigleith Sewage Treatment Plant
provides services to Craigleith, Castle Glen and Osler, and the Thornbury
Sewage Plant services Camperdown, Swiss Meadows, Lora Bay, Clarksburg,
Thornbury East and Thornbury West.
Development Charges are Calculated in Accordance with the
Development Charges Act | 35
As shown in Table 9, the total cost associated with the Craigleith Sewage
Treatment Plant is $37.2 million, with a benefit to existing share of $94,660
and $31.5 million allocated to post period removed from the in-period
recovery. In total, 91%, or $5.1 million is allocated to the residential sector,
and 9%, or $504,800 is allocated to the non-residential sector. This results in
development charges of $542.06 per capita and $6.67 per square metre.
These rates are charged to development occurring within the three
applicable service areas.
Table 10 illustrates the calculation of the development charges for the
Thornbury Sewage Treatment Plant. Capital projects associated with the
plant total $85.1 million. Removed from the calculation are the benefit to
existing ($15.2 million), positive reserve fund balance ($4.3 million) and a
post-period allocation ($40.4 million) resulting in a development charge
eligible share of $25.2 million. The $25.2 million is allocated 90%, or $22.5
million against new residential development, and 10% or $2.6 million against
non-residential development. This results in development charges of
$4,485.89 per capita and $64.56 per square metre. These rates are charged
to development occurring within the five applicable service areas
(Camperdown, Swiss Meadows, Lora Bay, Clarksburg, Thornbury East and
West).
Full capital program and calculation details regarding area-specific water
and wastewater services can be found in Appendix D.

Cost of Growth Analysis | 46
7. Cost of Growth Analysis
This section provides a brief examination of the long-term capital and
operating costs as well as the asset management-related annual provisions
for the capital facilities and infrastructure to be included in the DC By-law.
This examination is required as one of the provisions of the DCA. The
analysis for all other services is included in Appendix F.
A.
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 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 F.
i.
Annual Capital Provisions for Tax and Rate Supported Assets
Table 20 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. The 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 20 illustrates that, by 2034, the Town will need to fund an additional
$1.3 million per annum to properly fund the full life cycle costs of the new
Town-wide general assets supported under the proposed Development
Charges By-law. In contrast, for engineered services which have a longer
benefiting period to build-out, the calculated annual provision for DC the
assets supported under the proposed Development Charges By-law is $3.5
million and $4.1 million for Roads and Related and Water and Wastewater
assets, respectively.
Cost of Growth Analysis | 47
B.
Future Revenue Growth
The calculated annual funding provision should be considered within the
context of the Townʼs projected growth. Over the next 10 years (to 2033) the
Town is projected to increase by approximately 3,050 households, which
Cost of Growth Analysis | 48
represents a 39% increase over the existing base. Over the longer-term
planning horizon to build-out, the Town will add approximately 7,390
households. In addition, the Town will also add roughly 275 new employees
that will result in approximately 21,973 square metres of additional non-
residential building space. Over the longer planning period to build-out the
Town will add an additional 1,453 employees that will be accommodated in
116,095 square metres of new 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 Development Charges By-law.
i.
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 Townʼs 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.
C.
Net Operating Costs for the Townʼs Services to Increase
over the Forecast Period
Table 21 summarizes the estimated increase in net operating costs that the
Town 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 Town (additional details are included in
Appendix F).
Cost of Growth Analysis | 49
As shown in Table 21, by 2033 the Townʼs net operating costs are estimated
to increase by about $7.3 million. The most significant portion of this
increase relates to Parks and Recreation as well as Roads and Related
service.

Long-Term Capital Financing from Non-Development
Charges Sources
Table 22 also summarizes the components of the development-related
capital forecast that will require funding from non-development charges
sources. Of the $73.5 million net capital forecast, about $5.6 million will
need to be financed from non-development charges sources over the next
10 years. In addition, $24.5 million relates to general service level increases
and to development in the post-2033 period. It is likely that most of these
monies could be recovered from future development charges.
Table 23 summarizes the engineering services development-related costs.
The total net municipal Town-wide and area-specific cost amounts to
$578.1 million with $335.0 million being recovered from the 2024 to build-out
horizon. Removed from the net municipal costs are grants and other
subsidies ($30.0 million), benefit to existing shares ($49.5 million) and a
post-build-out benefit of $128.3 million. Also removed from the cost is the
positive reserve fund balance of $15.3 million.

A.
Development Chagres Recommendations
Some changes are recommended to the Townʼs current development charge
calculation. Through discussions with staff, and considering the
requirements of the DCA, the following recommendations were made:
-
That present practices regarding collection of DCs and by-law
administration continue to the extent possible, having regard to any
requirements of the DCA;
-
That under the DCA, the Town should codify any rules regarding
application of the by-laws and exemptions within the DC by-laws
proposed for adoption;
-
That Council adopt the development-related capital forecasts, and the
increase in the need for services attributable to the anticipated
development, as included in the 2024 DC Background Study, subject to
annual review through the Townʼs normal capital budget process.
-
That Council confirms its intention to fund the adopted capital forecast
to ensure that the increase in need for service will be met.
-
That Council determine that the future excess capacity identified in the
DC Background Study shall be paid for by the development charges
contemplated in the said DC Background Study, or other similar charges.
-
That Council 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 DCs. Both
Town-wide and area-specific rates are proposed.
Development Charges Administration | 53
-
That Council has determined that for the services, and associated
infrastructure proposed to be funded by DCs under the DC by-law, that
the charges be calculated on a Town-wide and area-specific basis.
-
That Council approve the Cost of Growth analysis, including the Asset
Management Plan, that deals with all assets whose capital costs are
intended to be funded under the development charge by-law and that
such assets are considered to be financially sustainable over their full
life-cycle.

The forecasts of population, households and employment prepared for the
purposes of the Townʼs 2024 DC Background Study have been informed by
the forecasts prepared for Grey Countyʼs Growth Management Strategy and
updated to reflect the most current available development information as
provided by Town staff. The residential forecasts are somewhat higher than
those contained in the Countyʼs updated Official Plan but remain lower than
Appendix A | 55
the number of known units associated with active development applications
in the Town. The adjustments account for potential fluctuations in
anticipated development that may occur over the five-year life of the DC By-
law. It is proposed that the rate of development in the Town continue to be
monitored and adjusted in subsequent DC study updates.
A.
Historical Development in the Town
Historical growth presented in this appendix are based on available data
sets from Statistics Canada and the Townʼs historical building permit data.
An adjusted population, which accounts for both Census and seasonal
population, is used for the purposes of the development charges study. For
development charges purposes, a 15-year historical period of 2009 to 2023
is used for calculating service levels.
Tables A.1 and A.2 demonstrate that the Town has experienced steady
population and dwelling unit growth over the historical 15-year planning
period of 2009 to 2023. Since 2008, the Town has increased from 6,541 total
private dwelling units (includes dwelling occupied by permanent residents
as well as dwellings not occupied by usual residents) to a total of an
estimated 9,102 private dwelling units in 2023, a 39% increase. Similarly, the
population in the Town, adjusted for seasonal population, has increased
from 14,040 persons in 2008 to 17,931, an increase of 28%.
Table A.3 shows the historical rate of employment growth in the Town. Since
2008 the Town has seen an increase from 3,341 employees in 2008 to 4,891
employees in 2023, an increase of 46%. Over this period, the activity rate
(proportion) of employees in the Town to census population has been
declining which is anticipated to continue.
Appendix A | 56
B.
Forecast Approach and Key Assumptions
The Development Charges Act (DCA) requires the Town 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
Town to prepare a reasonable development-related capital program.
The forecast for the purposes of the Townʼs 2024 DC Background Study is
informed by the assumptions and target established in Grey Countyʼs
Growth Management Strategy and updated to reflect available Census data
and known development applications. The residential forecast includes
estimates of dwelling units not occupied by usual residents (this includes
both seasonal dwellings and hotel units). As in previous by-laws, hotel units
or commercial resort units are treated as residential uses and are therefore
captured in the residential forecast. In particular, the forecast also estimates
permanent residential dwelling units (e.g. single and semi-detached, rows
and apartments) for residents that reside permanently in the Town.
Development charges are levied on residential development as a charge per
dwelling unit. Therefore, for the residential forecast, a projection of both the
population growth 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.
Appendix A | 57
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 Town.
C.
Town-Wide Forecast Results
A Town-wide development forecast has been prepared for the future 10-
year planning period of 2024 to 2033 and to build-out. The forecast includes
estimates related to Census and seasonal population as well as occupied
dwellings and dwellings not occupied by usual residents (inclusive of
seasonal dwelling units).
i.
Residential Development Forecast
As shown in Table A.6, by 2033, it is estimated that the Town will reach an
adjusted population (including both Census and seasonal population) of
21,909 persons. This represents a growth of 3,978 persons in the ten-year
horizon from the current population of 17,931 in 2023. From 2024 to 2033, the
total number of private dwellings are anticipated to increase by a total of
1,913 additional units.
A summary of the anticipated housing growth by unit type is shown in Table
A.8. The forecast shows that the residential occupied dwelling units in the
Town will continue to be dominated by ground-related units including single
and semi-detached (34%) and row units (16 %). The higher-density built-
forms will account for 13%. The forecast also includes an estimate of
dwellings not occupied by usual residents, which will largely be ground-
related dwelling units, as well as hotel units. The hotel unit forecast
assumes that three hotels with 1,137 units will be constructed over the next
10-years.
Appendix A | 58
Table A.9 shows the forecast population that will reside in the total private
new dwelling units. The population in these units is estimated by applying
the following person per unit (PPU) factors:
-
Single and Semi-Detached
= 2.23
-
Rows and Other Multiples
= 2.00
-
Apartments and Non-Permanent Units
= 1.50
PPU factors are based on Census 2021 data as presented in Table A.5 as well
as a variety of sources were used to inform, and consideration was given to
the available data. Due to small sample sizes for Rows and Apartment unit
types, the relationship between the occupancy patterns of the unit types was
largely maintained from the 2019 DC Study and have been rounded.
Based on these factors, the forecast of population expected to reside in new
housing units over the 2024 to 2033 period is 5,587 additional persons.
ii.
Non-Residential Development Forecast
Non-residential development charges are calculated on a per square metre
of gross floor area (GFA) basis. Therefore, as per the DCA, a forecast of
non-residential building space has been developed.
Table A.10 summarizes the non-residential forecast of employment growth.
This results in an anticipated increase of 275 employees between 2024 and
2033. The forecast number of employees, multiplied by the employment
density assumption of 80 square metres per employee, is used to forecast
the additional gross floor area of space from 2024 to 2033. In total, the Town
is forecast to add 21,973 square metres of additional non-residential floor
space to 2033.
Appendix A | 59
D.
Area-Specific Forecast Results
The Town has identified several servicing areas for the purposes of
calculating area-specific Water and Wastewater development charges. As a
result, area-specific residential and non-residential forecasts have been
prepared for the following areas:
-
Craigleith
-
Camperdown
-
Castle Glenn
-
Swiss Meadows
-
Lora Bay
-
Clarksburg
-
Osler
-
Thornbury East
-
Thornbury West
-
Rural
The anticipated development in the defined servicing areas is based on the
build-out potential identified in the 2014 DC Background Study, updated for
the 2019 DC Background Study, and adjusted for completed building
permits.
i.
Area-Specific Residential Development Forecast
Table A.11 provides a summary of the area-specific unit forecast over the
10-year (2024-2033) and longer-term planning period (build-out). Over the
10-year and longer-term planning periods, the majority of the unit growth is
anticipated to occur in the Craigleith servicing area. Craigleith will account
for 67% of unit growth over the 10-year planning period and 39% of the total
growth to build-out. Although the 10-year planning period has only about
10% of growth anticipated in Castle Glen, to build-out nearly 27% is
anticipated. As Craigleith and Castle Glen develop, other servicing areas
including Camperdown, and Lora Bay will account for the majority of the
residential unit growth in the Town over the longer-term planning period.
Appendix A | 60
Table A.12 shows the forecast population that will residue in new dwelling
units. The PPU factors applied to each of the dwelling units is consistent
with the Town-wide forecast, and as such, the forecast population expected
to reside in new housing units over the 2024 to 2033 period is 5,575 persons,
generally consistent with the Town-wide estimate. Over the longer planning
period to build-out, the forecast population of new housing units is 14,533
persons.
ii.
Area-Specific Non-Residential Development Forecast
Table A.13 provides a summary of the area-specific non-residential
development forecast. Consistent with the residential forecast, much of the
non-residential employment growth (41 per cent) is anticipated to occur
within the Craigleith servicing area over the 10-year planning period.
Craigleith is forecast to maintain 41 per cent of employment growth over the
longer planning period to build-out. The remaining employment growth to
build-out will occur in Castle Glen (22 per cent) and Lora Bay (14 per cent)
with some minor allocations to Thornbury West (9 per cent), Camperdown (7
per cent), Clarksburg (3 per cent), Osler (2 per cent) and Thornbury East (2
per cent).
Over the 10-year planning period the servicing areas will add an additional
275 employees (which will occupy 21,973 square metres of non-residential
space) consistent with the Town-wide forecast and 1,453 employees over
the longer planning period to build-out (which will occupy 116,095 square
metres of non-residential space).

Appendix B - Introduction and Overview
The following appendix provides the detailed analysis undertaken to
establish the development charge rates for each of the services in the Town
of The Blue Mountains. Seven services have been analysed as part of the
Development Charges Study:
Appendix B.1
Public Library
Appendix B.2
Fire Services
Appendix B.3
Police Department
Appendix B.4
Parks and Recreation
Appendix B.5
By-law Enforcement
Appendix B.6
Solid Waste
Appendix B.7
Development Related Studies
The tables provide the background data and analysis undertaken to arrive at
the calculated development charge rates for that particular service. An
overview of the content and purpose of each of the tables is given below.
Table 1 Historical Service Levels
Table 1 presents the data used to determine the 15-year historical service
level. The DCA and O. Reg. 82/98 require that development charges be set
at a level no higher than the average service level provided in the Town over
the 15-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
Appendix B | 76
terms. For example, service levels for buildings are presented in terms of
square feet. 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 cost 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 funded
by new growth reflect not only the quantity (number and size) but also the
quality (replacement value or cost) of service provided by the Town in the
past. Both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of service levels used in
the current analysis are based on information provided by municipal staff.
This information is generally based on historical records and experience with
costs to acquire or construct similar facilities, equipment and infrastructure.
Table 1 also shows the calculation of the "maximum allowable" funding
envelope, net of uncommitted excess capacity. The maximum allowable is
defined as the 15-year historical service level (expressed as $/capita or
$/population & employment) multiplied by the forecast increase in net
population, or net population and employment growth, over the planning
period. The resulting figure is the value of capital infrastructure that must be
constructed for that particular service so that the 15-year historical service
level is maintained.
There is also a requirement in the DCA to consider "excess capacity" within
the Townʼs existing infrastructure that may be available to partially meet the
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 is determined
whether or not this capacity will be available to service new development
and, if so, deductions to the maximum allowable funding envelope are
required.

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, Hemson Consulting, in collaboration with Town
staff, has developed a development-related capital program which sets out
the projects required to service anticipated development for the 10-year
period from 2024 to 2033.
To determine the share of the program that is eligible for recovery through
development charges, the project costs are reduced by any anticipated
grants and "replacement" shares.
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 shares will
require funding from non-development charge sources, typically property
taxes or user fees.
The capital program less any replacement or benefit to existing shares
yields the development related costs. Although deemed development-
related, not all of the net development-related capital program may be
recoverable from development charges in the period from 2024 to 2033. For
some of the services, due to funding envelope restrictions, a portion of the
costs is deemed to be recovered from other development-related sources
including future DC Background Studies. In some cases, a portion of the
other development related costs is either deemed "pre-built" service
capacity to be considered as committed excess capacity and recovered
under future development or is a service level increase.
Appendix B | 78
The remaining portion of the net capital program represents the
development-related cost that may be included in the development charge.
In all cases, as required, this amount is equal to or less than the maximum
allowable capital amount as calculated at the end of Table 1. The result is
the discounted development-related net capital cost that is eligible for
recovery against development over the period from 2024 to 2033.
Calculation of the Development Charge Rates
The section below the capital program displays the calculation of the
development charge rates.
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 Town-wide uniform services with the exception of
Public Library and Parks and Recreation, the development-related costs
have been apportioned as 95 per cent residential and 5 per cent non-
residential. This apportionment is based on the anticipated shares of
dwelling unit and employment growth over the 10-year forecast period.
The development-related costs associated with the Public Library and Parks
and Recreation have been allocated 100 per cent to the residential sector
because the need for these services is generally driven entirely by
residential development.
The residential share of the 2024-2033 DC eligible costs is then divided by
the number of forecast dwellings. This gives the calculated 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.1 - Public Library
The Town of The Blue Mountains provides Library Services from the
Leonard E. Shore Memorial Library branch and the Craigleith Heritage
Depot. The libraries provide a wide range of resources in a variety of formats
as well as a number of programs to the residents of the Town of The Blue
Mountains.
Table B.1-1 2009-2023 Historical Service Levels
Table B.1-1 displays the Libraryʼs 15-year historical inventory for buildings,
land, materials, and furniture and equipment (excluding computer
equipment). The building space amounts to 10,600 square feet and is valued
at $7.59 million. The library buildings occupy approximately 0.66 hectares of
land worth $943,800. The collection materials are valued at $1.33 million and
the furniture and equipment associated with the library branches are valued
at $730,300.
The 2023 full replacement value of the inventory of capital assets amounts
to $10.59 million and the 15-year historical average service level is $682.06
per capita.
The historical service level multiplied by the 10-year forecast of population
growth results in a 10-year maximum allowable funding envelope of $2.71
million (3,978 population growth X historical service level of $682.06/capita).
Table B.1-2 2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program &
Calculation of the Development Charge Rates
The Public Libraryʼs total 10-year forecast amounts to $9.11 million. The
capital program provides for additional library space, including costs
associated with land acquisition, furniture and equipment, and collection
materials.
Appendix B | 81
No grants, subsidies, or other recoveries are anticipated to fund any shares
of the above mentioned projects. A benefit to existing share of 9 per cent
has been identified for the addition library space and associated land with
$731,800 removed from the DC eligible amount for recovery. The net cost to
the municipality is therefore at $8.38 million.
A portion of the DC eligible costs, $3.10 million, will be funded by available
reserve funds. A share of $2.57 million is deemed as other development
related and will not be recovered under this development charges by-law,
but may be considered for funding from other revenue sources and in future
development charge studies, subject to service level restrictions.
The remaining $2.71 million is related to growth between 2024 and 2033 and
is allocated entirely against future residential development in the Town of
The Blue Mountains. This results in a development charge of $485.66 per
capita.
The following table summarizes the calculation of the Public Library
development charge.

Appendix B.2 - Fire Services
The Town of The Blue Mountains Fire Department is responsible for fire
prevention inspections, public education sessions, communications
(including dispatching), and fire suppression.
Table B.2-1 2009-2023 Historical Service Levels
The Town of The Blue Mountains Fire Department operates from two fire
halls, Craigleith and Thornbury. The combined area of the stations is 16,400
square feet valued at $8.2 million. The land area associated with the
buildings is approximately 2.46 hectares and is valued at $3.52 million. The
total cost of all furniture and equipment at both stations is approximately
$1.5 million. The 16 vehicles associated with the stations have a total
replacement cost of $8.22 million.
The current replacement value of all Fire Services capital infrastructure is
$21.44 million, which provides the Town with a 15-year historical average
service level of $1,043.26 per population and employment.
The calculated maximum allowable recoverable through development
charges over the 2024 to 2033 planning period is $4.44 million (4,253
population and employment growth X historical service level of
$1,043.26/pop and emp).
Table B.2-2 2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program &
Calculation of the Development Charge
The Fire Services capital forecast recovers for a new Fire Hall of $8.70
million, including all associated land, furniture and equipment. Additionally,
Upgrades to Fire Hall 1 ($3.49 million) and a new Mobile Training Unit
($500,000) are eligible for recovery. The program also includes additional
emergency equipment ($950,000) and personnel equipment acquisitions
($24,000).
Appendix B | 87
In total, the 10-year capital program for Fire Services amounts to $13.66
million. No grants or subsidies are identified for this serviceʼs capital
program. Approximately $3.15 million has been identified as providing
benefit to existing development, which relates to the proposed new Fire Hall
and Mobile Training Unit. A portion of the costs, approximately $811,908,
will be funded by available reserve funds. A share of $5.26 million is deemed
as related to other development and will not be recovered under this
development charges by-law but may be considered for funding from other
sources and in future development charge studies, subject to service level
restrictions. The remaining $4.44 million is related to development between
2024 and 2033 and is allocated entirely against future development in the
Town of The Blue Mountains.
The 10-year development-related net capital cost is allocated 95 per cent, or
$4.23 million, against residential development, and 5 per cent, or $208,159,
against non-residential development. The allocation between residential and
non-residential development is based on shares of 10-year growth in
population in new units and employment. The resulting development charge
is $756.94 per capita and $9.47 per square metre.
The following table summarizes the calculation of the Fire Services
development charge.

Appendix B.3 - Police Department
Policing for the Town of The Blue Mountains is provided by the Ontario
Provincial Police. The Blue Mountains detachment headquarters office is
found in Thornbury.
Table B.3-1 2009-2023 Historical Service Levels
The 15-year historical inventory of capital assets for the Police Department
includes 6,590 square feet of building space with a replacement value of
$3.30 million. The 0.67 hectares of land associated with the building space
are valued at $959,500. The total cost of furniture and equipment associated
with the stations, including personal police equipment and communications
equipment adds $197,700 to the value of the inventory.
The current replacement value of the Police Departmentʼs capital
infrastructure including buildings, land, vehicles and equipment is
approximately $4.45 million. This provides a 15-year average historical
service level of $228.13 per population and employment. This average
historical service level multiplied by the 10-year forecast growth in
population and employment, results in a 10-year maximum allowable
funding envelope of $970,282 (4,253 population and employment growth X
historical service level of $228.13/population and employment).
Table B.3-2 2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program &
Calculation of the Development Charge
The Police capital program recovers for the debt related associated with the
Ontario Provincial Police Station in Thornbury. The total debt payments have
been included in the capital program in the amount of $373,738.
No grants or subsidies are identified for the Police Departmentʼs capital
program. A portion of the debt for the station ($35,353) will be funded
through the Townʼs Police Department DC reserve fund and are therefore
Appendix B | 93
reduced from the total development charge calculation. Altogether, the 10-
year capital forecast for Police amounts to $338,385, all of which is
considered to be development-related.
As shown in Table B.3-2, the total development-related cost is allocated
95% or $332,510, against new residential development, and 5%, or $15,874,
against non-residential development. This yields a development charge of
$57.73 per capita and $0.72 per square metre.

development charge.

Appendix B.4 - Parks and Recreation
The Town of The Blue Mountains Recreation Department is responsible for
provision of indoor and outdoor recreation facilities, community space and
recreational programming. The Recreation Department provides indoor
recreation services through several major facilities, most notably the Beaver
Valley Community Centre.
Table B.4-1 2009-2023 Historical Service Levels
The 15-year historical inventory of capital assets for Indoor Recreation
includes 58,596 square feet of indoor recreation building space
accommodated within the Townʼs facilities. The largest of these facilities is
The Beaver Valley Community Centre at 41,600 square feet. The current
replacement value for the buildings is $24.21 million, and the 4.57 hectares
of land associated with the buildings is valued at $6.53 million. The furniture
and equipment found in the facilities has a total value of $1.76 million.
The Blue Mountainʼs inventory of developed parks amounts to 20.93
hectares valued at $7.32 million. It also includes 29.83 hectares of developed
open and natural parks valued at $4.32 million. The Townʼs inventory also
includes 42,600 metres of trails valued at $3.98 million.
The Parks department is responsible for various park amenities such
baseball diamonds, softball diamonds, soccer pitches, golf courses, tennis
courts, playgrounds, basketball courts, skateboard parks, pavilions, and dog
parks. The total value of park facilities is $8.59 million. Park vehicles and
equipment add an additional $1.50 million to the inventory.
The 2023 full replacement value of the inventory of capital assets for Parks
and Recreation services amounts to $58.21 million and the 15-year historical
average service level is $3,590.86 per capita.
Appendix B | 99
The historical service level multiplied by the 10-year forecast of population
growth results in a 10-year maximum allowable funding envelope of $14.28
million (3,978 net population growth X historical service level of
$3,590.86/capita).
Table B.4-2 2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program &
Calculation of the Development Charge
The 2024-2033 gross development-related capital program for Parks and
Recreation amounts to $85.03 million.
The largest project in the capital program is a provision for indoor recreation
space for $80.00 million. The capital program provides $2.14 million for
various parkland development projects, the most significant of which are
Parkland and Waterfront development. Also included in the program is $2.26
million for new park facilities. Lastly, the Town anticipates acquiring
additional vehicles and equipment for a total cost of $630,900.
Of the gross cost, $50.00 million in grants and subsidies related to the new
indoor recreation space has been identified and is removed from the DC
eligible costs. Replacement or benefit to existing shares of $729,500 have
been identified for this service related to the Trail & Trailhead development,
Tennis court construction / Pickle Ball, and Trail Development at 50% BTE
and Additional Pavilion / Washrooms at 25% BTE. The DC eligible costs are
then reduced to $34.30 million, of which $14.28 million is eligible for
development charges funding within the 10-year planning period.
Approximately $3.49 million has been identified as available funding in the
development charges reserve and $16.52 million has been identified
recoverable from other development funding including consideration for
recovery in future DC background studies.
The full development-related share of the Parks and Recreation capital
program is allocated entirely against future residential development in the
Appendix B | 100
Town of The Blue Mountains. This results in a development charge of
$2,556.85 per capita.
The following table summarizes the calculation of the Parks development
charge.

Appendix B.5 - By-Law Enforcement
The By-law Enforcement Division oversees municipal law enforcement in
The Blue Mountains. Their responsibilities involve promoting community
standards awareness and enforcing town by-laws including parking, animal
control and many others.
Table B.5-1 2009-2023 Historical Service Levels
The Town of The Blue Mountains By-Law department includes the Town
Hall with an area of 500 square feet valued at $192,500. The land area
associated with the buildings is approximately 0.03 hectares and is valued at
$42,900. The total cost of all furniture and equipment is approximately
$7,500. The nine vehicles associated with the By-Law department have a
total value of $145,000.
The current replacement value of all By-Law capital infrastructure is
$387,900 which provides the Town with a 15-year historical average service
level of $18.83 per population and employment.
The calculated maximum allowable recoverable through development
charges over the 2024 to 2033 planning period is $80,088 (4,253 population
and employment growth X historical service level of $18.83/population and
employment).
Table B.5-2 2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program &
Calculation of the Development Charge
The By-Law capital forecast includes the recovery of negative reserve fund
balance amounting to $124,509. The acquisition of additional By-Law
vehicles and equipment, totaling $125,000, is also eligible for recovery
through development charges.
Appendix B | 113
In total, the 10-year capital program for By-Law Services amounts to
$249,509. No grants or subsidies are identified for this serviceʼs capital
program. In addition, no replacement shares have been identified. A share of
$169,421 is deemed as a post-period benefit and will not be recovered under
this development charges by-law, but may be considered in future
development charge studies, subject to service level restrictions. The
remaining $80,088 is related to development between 2024 and 2033 and is
allocated entirely against future development in the Town of The Blue
Mountains.
The 10-year development-related net capital cost is allocated 95%, or
$76,331, against residential development, and 5%, or $3,757, against non-
residential development. The allocation between residential and non-
residential development is based on shares of 10-year growth in population
in new units and employment. The resulting development charge is $13.66
per capita and $0.17 per square metre.
The following table summarizes the calculation of the By-Law Services
development charge.

Appendix B.6 - Solid Waste Management
As of January 1, 2016, the Development Charges Act permits the inclusion of
capital costs associated with all waste management operations with the
exception of incineration and landfill activities. These shares of facilities,
land, vehicles and equipment have been removed from the development
charges calculation.
Table B.6-1 2009-2023 Historical Service Levels
The Town of The Blue Mountains provides a variety of waste-related
services at the processing sites, including diversion, landfill and processing.
As landfills are ineligible under the DCA, shares have been removed from
the identified capital assets to account for the portion of each item in the
inventory that relates to landfill operations. These shares were reviewed and
determined in consultation with Town staff.
The total eligible size of the Townʼs solid waste buildings amounts to 1,361
square feet, valued at $823,600. The land related to the eligible portions of
buildings total 1.63 hectares, valued at $2.34 million.
Of the vehicles and equipment used to provide Solid Waste services to the
Town, a total of nine represent the share of vehicles related to the eligible
operations of diversion, collection and processing. The replacement costs of
these vehicles total $1.97 million.
The total value of the inventory of capital assets for Solid Waste in 2023 was
$5.13 million, resulting in a 15-year historical average service level of
$254.57 per population and employment. The historical service level,
multiplied by the 10-year population and employment growth, results in a
10-year maximum allowable funding envelope of $1.08 million (4,253 X
$254.57 per population and employment).
Appendix B | 119
Table B.6-2 2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program and
Calculation of the Development Charges
The 10-year development-related capital plan for Solid Waste Management
includes provisions for a scale house and scale, a collection truck, organic
recycling bins, and organics processing equipment for a total of $1.10
million. No grants, subsidies or other recoveries are identified and as such,
the total is carried forward to the net municipal costs.
A total benefit to existing share of $360,000 has been identified for the
proposed scale house and scale ($185,000) and organics processing
equipment ($175,000) and is removed from the calculation. A portion of the
costs, approximately $305,747, will be funded by available reserve funds.
The total 2024-2033 development related cost of $434,253 is allocated 95%,
or $413,881, to the residential sector. The remaining 5%, or $20,372, is
allocated to non-residential development. This yields a development charge
of $74.08 per capita and $0.93 per square metre.
The following table summarizes the calculation of the Solid Waste
development charge.

Appendix B.7 - 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 from
recovery under the DCA.
Table B.7-1 2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program and
Calculation of the Development Charges
As shown on Table B.7-1, the 2024-2033 development-related gross cost for
General Government is $1.57 million. Development-related studies, such as
Development Charges updates, Craigleith Community Parkland, Official Plan
updates, Zoning By-law updates, and other planning studies have been
included. A recovery of $125,062 in past commitments is also included in the
capital program for recovery through DCs.
Recognizing that not all studies under this service are entirely necessitated
by new development in the Town, benefit to existing shares have been
identified and reduced from the net municipal costs. In total, the benefit to
existing shares amount to $611,550 and this amount will not be recovered
through development charges.
The remaining amount of $962,412 is eligible for development charges
funding in the 10-year planning period. This amount is included in the
development charge calculation and is allocated 95%, or $917,263 to the
residential sector and 5%, or $45,149 to the non-residential sector based on
shares of 10-year growth in net population and employment. The resulting
per capita charge is $164.18. The non-residential charge is $2.05 per square
metre.
The following table summarizes the calculation of the Development -Related
Studies development charge.

Appendix C - Engineering Infrastructure
Services Related to a Highway
This appendix provides the detailed analysis undertaken to establish the
development charges rates for the Services Related to a Highway: Public
Works and Roads and Related service category in the Town of The Blue
Mountains. This service category includes the road network, streetlights,
intersection improvements, traffic signalization, storm drainage (within the
ROW), sidewalks, facilities, fleet and equipment and other related
structures.
The capital planning and management of all transportation infrastructure in
the Town of The Blue Mountains is carried out by the Infrastructure and
Public Works department.
The structure of the Public Works table follows the description provided in
Appendix B. Details on the tables included for Roads and Related service are
included in Appendix C.2 below.
Appendix C | 129
Appendix C.1
Services Related to a Highway:
Public Works
Appendix C | 130
Appendix C.1 - Services Related to a
Highway: Public Works
The Town of The Blue Mountains Public Works Department is responsible
for the operation and maintenance of Town infrastructure. Also included in
this category is Town-wide fleet as relate to the eligible services under
section 2(4) of the DCA but excluding those listed under other service
inventories.
Table C.1-1 2009-2023 Historical Service Levels
The 15-year historical inventory of capital assets for Public Works includes
15,160 square feet of building space with a replacement value of $5.89
million. The 3.06 hectares of land associated with the Public Works buildings
are valued at $4.38 million, furniture and equipment amount to $227,400,
and the 25 vehicles in the municipal fleet add an additional $5.76 million to
the value of the capital assets.
The total value of the Public Works capital infrastructure is estimated to be
$16.26 million. The 15-year historical average service level is $787.32 per
population and employment and this, multiplied by the 10-year forecast
population and employment growth (4,253), results in a maximum allowable
funding envelope of $3.35 million.
Table C.1-2 2024 - 2033 Development-Related Capital Program and
Calculation of the Unadjusted Development Charges
The Public Works capital program relates largely to the provision of new
building space for public works operations in the Town. A new public works
facility for $8.27 million is anticipated in 2025. A new snow storage facility in
2025 ($455,000) and a new satellite office in 2027 ($2.18 million) are also
included in the capital program. A provision of $1.50 million is also included
for new vehicles and equipment.
Appendix C | 131
Altogether, the Public Works capital program totals $12.40 million. No
grants, subsidies or required discounts are identified for this service. A share
of $2.07 million is identified as providing benefit to existing development
related to the proposed Public Works Facility. Available DC reserve funds
total $333,920 and will be used to fund a portion of the capital program.
Additionally, $6.65 million has been identified as other development related
costs, and will be considered for funding from other sources including in
subsequent development charges studies.
After these adjustments, the DC costs eligible for recovery over the 2024 to
2033 planning period amount to $3.35 million and are allocated 95%, or
$3.19 million, against new residential development, and 5%, or $157,092,
against non-residential development. This yields an unadjusted
development charge of $571.24 per capita and $7.15 per square metre.

development charge.

Appendix C.2 - Services Related to a
Highway: Roads and Related
The development-related Roads and Related infrastructure projects are
required to service the demands of new development up to the build-out of
the Town to approximately 7,390 units and 1,453 employees. This forecast is
discussed in more detail in Appendix A.
Tables C.2-1 to C.2-4 provide details of the projects included in the Town-
wide Roads and Related engineering infrastructure development charges
calculation. The content of the tables is as follows:
Table C.2-1 2009-2023 Historical Service Levels
Table C.2-2 Roads and Related Capital Program - 2024 to Build-out
Table C.2-3 Allocation of Capital Program and Determination of DC
Recoverable Share
Table C.2-4 Summary of Town-wide Residential and Non-Residential
Development Charges
Table C.2-1 2009-2023 Historical Service Levels
Table C.2-1 demonstrates that the Townʼs current road infrastructure
comprises approximately 225 kilometres of arterial, collectors, and local
roads, which are valued at $321.11 million.
The total value of bridges and culverts in the Town amounts to $74.63
million. The three traffic signals and are valued at $341,000 and sidewalks
total $6.57 million. Finally, 1,057 streetlights total $6.41 million.
The total inventory of capital assets for Roads and Related services has a
replacement value of $409.06 million. This produces a 15-year historical
Appendix C | 138
service level of $21,570.40 per capita and employee. The resulting maximum
allowable funding envelope is $344.82 million, which is brought forward to
the development charge calculation.
Table C.2-2 2024 - Build-Out Capital Program
The development-related capital program for transportation infrastructure
was developed by HDR Inc. in consultation with Town staff and Hemson
Consulting. The projects identified in the capital program are required to
service the demands of new development between 2024 and build-out,
subject to annual capital budget reviews. The entire capital program is
related to development Town-wide and has been allocated to development
as such.
The total gross cost of the Roads and Related capital program is $205.38
million and provides for the undertaking of various road reconstructions,
urbanizations, new road lengths, and various engineering studies. Table C.2-
2 shows all costs included in each capital project in order to reach the total
gross cost to be brought forward to the development charges calculation.
Table C.2-3 Allocation of Capital Program and Determination of DC
Recoverable Share
Table C.2-3 illustrates the determination of the development charge Town-
wide. The entire $205.38 million capital program will not be fully recovered
from future development charges and $29.08 million is identified as a local
service component. Approximately $26.59 million has been identified as a
benefit to existing share. A further share of $40.90 million is removed from
the DC eligible portion as it relates to costs Town-wide and in Thornbury
West not anticipated to be built-out within the planning horizon. As such,
the DC eligible portion is reduced to $100.54 million. This amount is then
brought forward to the development charges calculations.
Appendix C | 139
Table C.2-4 Summary of Town-wide Residential and Non-Residential
Development Charges
Table C.2-4 displays the calculation of the Town-wide residential and non-
residential development charges. Of the $100.54 million eligible share, an
additional $12.95 million is recovered from existing DC reserve fund balance.
The result is a development-related and development charges recoverable
share of the capital program of $87.58 million. The development-related cost
has been allocated 91% ($79.62 million) to new residential development and
9% ($7.96 million) to new non-residential development. The allocation of
costs is based on projected changes in population and employment growth
over the planning period. This results in a residential development charge of
$5,478.84 per capita and a non-residential charge of $68.57 per square
metre. These charges will be levied on all development occurring within the
Town of The Blue Mountains.
The Roads and Related capital program has been calculated using an
average cost method (i.e. the analysis is not cash-flowed) as it is anticipated
that the Roads program can be undertaken at approximately the same
timing and rate as anticipated development. If a particular development
requires a road project to be undertaken at an earlier time then anticipated
by the Town, or the Town has insufficient monies in the DC reserve, it may
be necessary for the Town and the developer to examine alternative front-
end financing arrangements.
The following is a summary of the Town-wide Roads and Related calculated
development charges rates:

Appendix D - Water and Wastewater
Services Technical Appendix
Overview of Servicing Areas
The Town of The Blue Mountains Water Services administers, operates and
maintains the municipal water treatment and distribution systems within the
Town. Town-wide water supply and treatment services are provided through
the Thornbury Water Treatment Plant. The functions of Wastewater Services
are the treatment of wastewater generated by the Town and are provided at
the Craigleith and Thornbury sewage treatment plants. The development-
related capital program for water and wastewater infrastructure was
developed by HDR Inc. in consultation with Town staff and Hemson
Consulting. To note, the subtotal costs were largely provided by HDR Inc.
and the components like construction works, legal, engineering, design,
contingency shares were carried forward from the 2019 DC Study but have
not been individually reviewed.
This appendix provides an outline of the water and wastewater
development-related capital projects the Town will require in order to meet
the servicing needs of new residential and non-residential development.
This includes both Town-wide and area-specific supply, treatment and
distribution.
There are nine distinct service areas in the Town:
1. Craigleith
2. Castle Glen
3. Osler
4. Thornbury East
5. Thornbury West
6. Clarksburg
7. Lora Bay
8. Camperdown
9. Swiss Meadows
Appendix D | 155
It should be noted that developments occurring within the Swiss Meadows
service area do not receive municipal water or wastewater servicing. Therefore,
for the purposes of the area-specific development charge calculations, only the
capital programs for the first eight service areas have been analysed.
Area-Specific Cost Recovery
Keeping with past practices in which the Town levies its Water and
Wastewater DC, the Town will continue to calculate and levy both
residential and non-residential charges on an area-specific basis.
The area-specific cost recovery approach is used to calculate development
charges for both residential and non-residential water and wastewater rates.
Each area-specific charge accounts for costs associated with: water supply,
sewage treatment, water distribution and sewage collection.
The Townʼs water supply development-related capital costs have been
allocated to development in all service areas, thus establishing a uniform
water supply cost. The sewage treatment cost components have been
allocated to the areas serviced by the Townʼs two sewage treatment plants:
Craigleith Sewage Treatment Plant
-
Craigleith
-
Castle Glen
-
Osler
Thornbury Sewage Treatment Plant
-
Camperdown
-
Lora Bay
-
Clarksburg
-
Thornbury East
-
Thornbury West
Appendix D | 156
The two other cost components of the water and sewer infrastructure to be
calculated and recovered on a service area basis include:
-
water distribution systems costs, including water mains, booster
pumping and storage
-
sewer collection systems costs, including collectors, forcemains and
pumping
The capital programs are designed to accommodate build-out of the service
areas based on known applications and potential for additional development
as permitted under the Townʼs Official Plan and various amendments.
The development charge rates have been calculated based on the servicing
capacity of each of the specific projects. The servicing capacity of the works
is identified in the various tables included in this appendix. The use of
servicing capacity in the development charge calculations ensures that,
should servicing capacity differ from projected growth, development does
not pay for any excess capacity that may be generated by the works. The
approach also provides that any servicing shortages will be met by the Town
construction projects at a similar or higher cost. The Town is committed to
an ongoing program of monitoring water and sewer system capacities and
will consider development charge rate adjustments as required.
Area-Specific Capital Programs and DC Rate Calculations
Tables D.1-D.23 display the capital programs and resulting development
charges for the various service areas. The tables display the details of the
projects, anticipated timing, total costs and the allocation of the DC eligible
costs to the residential and non-residential sectors. The analysis takes into
consideration the uncommitted development charge reserve fund balance
under the "Prior Growth" column. The tables also provide the calculation of
the equivalent unit development charge rates.

Pursuant to Paragraph 8, Item 5, of Ontario Regulation 82/98, the
development-related capital program contained herein includes credits or
potential credits for a number of projects. The costs of these works are fully
reflected in development-related capital forecasts in order to recoup the
costs from other benefitting owners. The monies will be used to meet any
legitimate credit requests.
Appendix D | 158
Town-wide Water and Wastewater DC Rates
Water Supply and Treatment
As shown in Table D.2, the cost of providing water services in the Town is
extensive; the Town-wide development-related capital program for the
water system is $29.27 million to service growth to build-out of the Townʼs
currently designated lands. The program provides for works associated with
providing additional water supply (estimated at the time of DC Study to be a
share of the Town of Collingwoodʼs capacity), operations building,
consolidated environmental assessments and other study updates.
Of this $29.27 million, $331,060 of replacement or non-growth related costs
and $58,190 in benefit to existing shares. The remaining DC eligible share of
$28.88 million for Town-wide water supply and treatment is allocated to the
residential and non-residential sectors based on shares of population and
employment growth. A share of 81%, or $23.43 million is allocated to the
residential sector, resulting in a charge of $1,615.01 per capita. The
remainder, $5.45 million is allocated to the non-residential sector, yielding a
charge of $46.98 per square metre.
Additional area-specific charges are calculated and then added together
with the uniform water supply and treatment costs for a total water services
charge to be applied to new development in each service area. Residential
charges are calculated based on unit type. Non-residential charges are
calculated as a charge per square metre of new non-residential GFA.
It should be noted that the "net costs" shown on each of the service area
capital programs are not entirely recoverable against future development
charges. Unserviced lots that will connect into the water system in the
future will pay a capital connection fee, equivalent to that of the DC water
rate.
Appendix D | 159
Town-wide Wastewater Treatment
As shown in Tables D.3, D.4 and D.5, the cost of providing wastewater
services in the Town is also extensive; the Town-wide development-related
capital program for the wastewater system is $121.77 million to service
growth to build-out of the Townʼs currently designated lands. The program
provides for works related to both the Craigleith and Thornbury Sewage
Treatment Plants.
After removing the replacement or non-growth shares, and considering
available reserve fund balances, the cost of the wastewater services
forecast is reduced to $5.64 million for the Craigleith STP and $25.15 million
for the Thornbury STP, which is brought forward to the development charges
calculation.
The net municipal cost of the sanitary sewers, sewage treatment plants, and
forcemains are then allocated to the residential and non-residential sector
based on shares of population and employment growth. The resulting
development charges associated with the Craigleith Sewage Treatment
Plant are $542.06 per capita and $6.67 per square metre. The Thornbury
Sewage Treatment Plant yields development charges of $4,485.89 per capita
and $64.56 per square metre.
Additional area-specific charges are calculated and added together with the
uniform treatment costs for a total wastewater services charge to be applied
to new development in each service area.
Summary of Calculated Area-Specific Development Charges
The following tables provide a summary of the area-specific water and
wastewater charges as well as the total applicable charge to each area
including both area-specific and Town-wide uniform rates.

Appendix E - Development Charges
Reserve Funds Uncommitted Balances
The Development Charges Act requires that a reserve fund be established
for each service for which development charges are collected. Table E.1
presents the uncommitted reserve fund balances that are available to help
fund the growth-related net capital costs identified in this study. The
opening balances of the development charges reserve funds as of December
31, 2023, are shown.
As shown on Table E.1, the December 31, 2023, total reserve fund balance
was approximately $99,818. General Government (now referred to as
Development Related Studies) included in the capital program and rate
calculation in anticipation of the passing of Bill 185, Cutting Red Tape to
Build More Homes Act, 2024 which will permit for the collection of DCs for
development-related capital costs.
The application of each of the balances in each of the reserve funds is
discussed in the appendix section related to each service. The reserve funds
are assigned to projects in the initial years of the capital program for the
services in which the reserves are a positive balance. This has the effect of
reducing and deferring capital costs brought forward to the development
charge calculation and the cash flow analysis. Where there is a negative
balance, the amount is brought forward to the DC capital forecast for
recovery through future development charges.

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, as required by the legislation, is to
demonstrate that all assets 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 F.1 and F.2. 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 of the works identified may represent one-time expenditures
and may be temporary in nature. Therefore, the assets would not be
required to be replaced and no ongoing operation and maintenance
costs exist. Such assets are identified as "not a long-term asset" in
the table.
-
Some projects do not relate to the emplacement of a tangible capital
asset - some examples include the acquisition of land or the
undertaking of environmental assessments or other development-
related studies. These projects/costs do not necessarily require
future replacement or ongoing maintenance. Such projects are
identified as "not infrastructure" in the table.
Appendix F | 191
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 they 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 growth-related and are therefore not eligible
for funding through development charge revenues or other developer
contributions.
Based on the information obtained from Town 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 Town-wide 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, assumptions are made to
account for inflation (2.0 per cent) and interest (3.5 per cent).
Appendix F | 193
Consistent with the requirements of the DCA, assets that are proposed
to be funded under the DC 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 benefit-to-existing and post-period benefit
have also been calculated.
Table F.3 provides an overview of the capital provisions required to
replace the capital infrastructure proposed to be funded under the
development charges by-law for both General and Engineered Services.
As shown in Table F.3, by 2034, the Town will need to fund an additional
$1.29 million per annum in order to properly fund the full life-cycle costs
of the new general services assets related to the General Services
supported under the DC By-law. In contrast, for engineered services
which have a longer benefiting period to build-out, the calculated annual
provision for DC the assets supported under the proposed Development
Charges By-law is $3.55 million and $4.13 million for Roads and Related
and Water and Wastewater assets, respectively.

Appendix F | 195
Financial Sustainability of the Program
Future Revenue Growth
The calculated annual funding provision should be considered within the
context of the Townʼs projected growth. Over the next 10 years (to
2033) the Town is projected to increase by approximately 3,050
households, which represents a 39% increase over the existing base.
Over the longer-term planning horizon to build-out, the Town will add
approximately 7,390 households. In addition, the Town will also add
roughly 275 new employees that will result in approximately 21,973
square metres of additional non-residential building space. Over the
longer planning period to build-out the Town will add an additional
1,453 employees that will be accommodated in 116,095 square metres
of new 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-law.
Long-Term Capital and Operating Impact Analysis
As shown in Table F.4, by 2033, the Townʼs net operating costs are
estimated to increase by $7.32 million for property tax supported
services. Increases in net operating costs will be experienced as new
facilities such as community centres are opened. Water and Wastewater
operating impacts are assumed to be funded from water and
wastewater rates and are not included in the analysis.
Tables F.5 and F.6 summarize the components of the development-
related capital forecast that will require funding from non-DC sources.
Appendix F | 196
In total, $5.58 million and $49.46 million will need to be financed from
non-DC sources over the 2024-2033 and 2024-Build-out planning
periods respectively. In addition, $137.32 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.
Council is made aware of these factors so that they understand the
operating and capital costs that will not be covered by DCs as it adopts
the 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 Townʼs 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.

first building permit is issued in relation to a building or structure on land to which
the development charge applies.
(3) Notwithstanding Subsection (2) the Town-wide Roads & Related Services, , Sanitary
Sewage System, and Waterworks System services components of the development
charges for residential developments that require approval of a plan of subdivision
under Section 51 of the Planning Act or a consent under Section 53 of the Planning
Act and for which a subdivision agreement or consent agreement is executed by
the owner shall be calculated and shall be payable immediately upon the owner
executing the agreement, pursuant to Section 26 of the Act. The terms of such
agreement shall then prevail over the other provisions of this section.
(4) If at the time of issuance of a building permit or permits for any development for
which payments have been made pursuant to subsection 16(2) and subsection
16(3), the total number and type of dwelling units for which building permits have
been and are being issued, or the gross floor area used or intended to be used for a
non-residential purpose for which building permits have been and are being issued,
Page 10 of 21
is greater than that used for the calculation and payment referred to in subsection
(1), an additional payment shall be required and shall be calculated by multiplying
the applicable charge shown in Schedules C-1, C-2 and C-3 or D, by:
(a) in the case of residential development, the difference between the number and
type of dwelling units for which building permits have been and are being issued
and the number and type of dwelling units for which payments have been made
pursuant to subsection 16(2), subsection 16(3) and this subsection; and
(b) in the case of non-residential development, the difference between the gross
floor area used or intended to be used for a non-residential purpose for which
building permits have been and are being issued and the gross floor area used
or intended to be used for a non-residential purpose for which payments have
been made pursuant to subsection 16(2), subsection 16(3) and this subsection.
(5) Subject to subsection 16(7), if, following the issuance of all building permits for all
development in a subdivision or for all development on a block within that
subdivision that had been intended for future development and for which payments
have been made pursuant to subsection 16(2) and subsection 16(3), the total
number and type of dwelling units for which building permits have been issued, or
the gross floor area used or intended to be used for a non-residential purpose for
which building permits have been issued, is less than that used for the calculation
and payment referred to in subsection 16(2) and subsection 16(3), a refund shall
become payable by the Town to the person who originally made the payment
referred to in subsection 16(2) and subsection 16(3) which refund shall be calculated
by multiplying the applicable development charge in effect at the time such
payments were made by:
(a) in the case of residential development, the difference between the number of
dwelling units by type for which payments were made pursuant to subsection
16(2) and subsection 16(3) and the number of dwelling units by type for which
building permits were issued; and
(b) in the case of non-residential development, the difference between the gross
floor area used or intended to be used for a non-residential purpose for which
payments were made pursuant to subsection 16(2) and subsection 16(3) and
the gross floor area used or intended to be used for a non-residential purpose
for which building permits were issued.
(6) Subsections 16(4) and 16(5) shall apply with necessary modifications to a
development for which development charges have been paid pursuant to a
condition of consent or pursuant to an agreement respecting same.
(7) Notwithstanding subsections 16(1) to 16(6), the Town may require and where so
required an owner shall enter into an agreement, including the provision of security
for the owner's obligations under the agreement, pursuant to section 27 of the Act
and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such an agreement may
require the early payment of the development charges hereunder. The terms of
such agreement shall then prevail over the provisions of this By-law.
(8) Any refunds payable pursuant to subsections 16(5) and 16(6) shall be calculated and
paid without interest.
(9) Notwithstanding subsections 16(1) to 16(6), development charges for rental housing
and institutional developments in accordance with Section 26.1 of the Development
Charges Act, 1997, are due inclusive of interest established from the date the
development charge would have been payable in accordance with section 26 of the
Development Charges Act, 1997, in 6 equal annual payments beginning on the date
that is the earlier of:
Page 11 of 21
a. the date of the issuance of a permit under the Building Code Act,
1992 authorizing occupation of the building; and
b. the date the building is first occupied.
and continuing on the following five anniversaries of that date.
(10) Where the development of land results from the approval of a site plan or zoning by-
law amendment application received on or after January 1, 2020, and the approval of
the application occurred within two years of building permit issuance, the
development charges under subsection 16(2) shall be calculated on the rates set out
in Schedule B on the date of the planning application, including interest. Where both
planning applications apply, development charges under subsection 16(2) shall be
calculated on the rates in effect on the day of the later planning application, including
interest. This paragraph will apply in accordance with the legislation, subject to
amendment.
Payment by Money or the Provision of Services
17. (1) Payment of development charges shall be by cash or by cheque.
(2) In the alternative to payment by the means provided in Subsection (1), the Town
may, by an agreement entered into with the owner under Section 38 of the Act,
accept the provision of services in full or partial satisfaction of the development
charge otherwise payable provided that:
(a) if the Town and the owner cannot agree as to the reasonable cost of the
work performed, the reasonable cost of the work shall be determined by the
Town's Treasurer; and
(b) if the credit exceeds the amount of the charge for the service to which the
work relates,
(i)
the excess amount shall not be credited against the charge for any other
service, unless the Town has so agreed in an agreement under Section
38 of the Act; and
(ii)
in no event shall the Town be required to make a cash payment to the
credit holder.
(3) Nothing in this By-law prevents Council from requiring, as a condition of any
approval given under the Planning Act that the owner, at the owner's expense,
installs such local services as Council may require in accordance with the local
service policies of the Town in effect at the time.

following:
(a) if the gross floor area is enlarged by 50 per cent or less, the amount of the
development charge in respect of the enlargement is zero; and
(b) if the gross floor area is enlarged by more than 50 per cent, development
charges are payable on the amount by which the enlargement exceeds 50 per
cent of the gross floor area before the enlargement.
(2) For the purpose of this Section only the terms "gross floor area" and "existing
industrial building" shall have the same meaning as those terms have in Ont. Reg
82/98 made under the Act.
(3) In this Section, for greater certainty in applying the exemption herein:
(a) the gross floor area of an existing industrial building shall be determined as
of the date this By-law comes into force; and
(b) the gross floor area of an existing industrial building is enlarged where there
is a bona fide increase in the size of the existing building and the enlarged
area is attached to existing industrial building and is used for or in connection
with an industrial purpose as set out in Subsection 1(1) of O. Reg. 82/98.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the exemption in this
Section shall not apply where the enlarged area is attached to the existing
industrial building by means only of a tunnel, bridge, canopy, corridor or
other passageway, or through a shared below grade connection such as a
service tunnel, foundation, footing or a parking facility.
(4) For the purpose of interpreting the definition of "existing industrial building"
contained in O. Reg. 82/98, regard shall be had for the classification of the lands
in question pursuant to the Assessment Act, R. S. O. 1990, c. A.31, as amended,
and in particular: whether the lands fall within a tax class such that taxes on the
Page 13 of 21
land are payable at an industrial rate; and, whether more than 50% of the gross
floor area of the building or structure on the land has an industrial property code
for assessment purposes.
Categories of Non-Statutory Exempt Uses

the payment of development charges:
(1)
buildings or structures used as public hospitals governed by the Public
Hospitals Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.P.40, as amended;
(2)

(3)
land, buildings or structures for agricultural use which do not receive
municipal sanitary sewer or water supply services.
Temporary Buildings or Structures
22. (1) Subject to Subsections (2) and (3), temporary buildings or structure shall be exempt
from the payment of development charges.
(2) In the event that a temporary building or structure becomes protracted, it shall
be deemed not to be nor ever to have been a temporary building or structure,
and the development charges required to be paid under this By-law shall become
payable on the date the temporary building or structure becomes protracted.
(3) Prior to the Town issuing a building permit for a temporary building or structure,
the Town may require an owner to enter into an agreement, including the
provision of security for the owner's obligation under the agreement, pursuant to
Section 27 of the Act providing for all or part of the development charge required
by Subsection (2) to be paid after it would otherwise be payable. The terms of
such agreement shall then prevail over the provisions of this By-law.
Rules for the Redevelopment of Land
23. (1) Despite any other provision of this By-law, where as a result of the
redevelopment of land, a building or structure existing on the same land has
been demolished in order to facilitate redevelopment, or converted from one
principal use to another principal use on the same land, the development
charges otherwise payable with respect to such redevelopment shall be reduced
by the following amounts:
(a) in the case of a residential building or structure, an amount equivalent to the
applicable development charge for the Residential Type of the existing
dwelling that has been or will be demolished or converted to another principal
use; or
(b) in the case of a non-residential building or structure, an amount calculated by
multiplying the applicable development charge by the Gross Floor Area that
has been or will be demolished or converted to another principal use; or
(c) in the case of a mixed-use building or structure, by an amount calculated by
the residential unit type for the existing residential use portion and by gross
floor area for the non-residential use portion, of the unit that has been or will
be demolished or converted to another principal use.
(2) The amount of any reduction or credit permitted shall not exceed, in total, the
Page 14 of 21
amount of the development charges otherwise payable with respect to the re-
development.
(3) Any reduction or credit applicable hereunder shall only apply provided that a
building permit for the redevelopment has been issued within five (5) years of the
date of the issuance of a permit for the demolition of any building or structure on
the same lands.
(4) If the lands are unserviced at the time it is demolished, water or wastewater
development charges will not be credited. Water or wastewater development
charges (or the equivalent) will be due upon servicing.
(5) For greater certainty, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no
credit shall be allowed where the demolished building or structure or part thereof
prior to the demolition or conversion would have been exempt from the payment
of development charges pursuant to this By-law (e.g. temporary structures).
Rules with Respect to Existing Agreements
24.
If there is a conflict between this By-law and an agreement made between the Town
and the owner or former owner of land before the coming into force of this By- law
and the owner or former owner of the land agreed to pay all or a portion of a charge
related to development under the agreement with respect to the land or provided
services in lieu of payment, then the provisions of the agreement prevail over the By-
law to the extent of the conflict. The extent of the conflict shall be determined on a
service by service basis. Notwithstanding the allocation of total development charges
within an existing agreement, the development charges may be reallocated by the
Town to services set out in this By-law.
Reserve Funds
25. (1) Development charge payments received by the Town pursuant to this By-law shall
be maintained in a separate reserve fund or funds for each service to which the
development charge relates and shall be spent only for the capital costs
determined under paragraphs 2 to 8 of Subsection 5(1) of the Act.
(2) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Town may borrow money
from a reserve fund and repay the amount used plus interest at a rate not less than
the Bank of Canada rate updated on the first business day of every January, April,
July, and October.
Interest

Appendix H - Local Service
Definitions
General Policy Guidelines on Development Charge and Local
Service funding for Town Related Works
The following guidelines set out in general terms the size and nature of
engineered infrastructure that is included in the Town of The Blue
Mountains 2024 Development Charges Study. For a project to be eligible to
be funded completely or in part by development charges, the following will
apply:
1.
The project will be identified in the most current Town of The Blue
Mountains Development Charges Study.
2.
If any infrastructure does not add any additional capacity over and
above the capacity requirement for that development, these projects
are assumed to be the sole responsibility of the developer.
3.
Infrastructure that provides servicing or capacity for more than one
development is not necessarily fully or partially funded from
development charges. If a project is considered fully or partially local
in nature, the Town will require the benefiting land owners to fund the
works directly.
The following policy guidelines are general principles by which staff will be
guided in considering development applications. However, each application
will be considered on its own merits having regard to, among other factors,
the nature, type and location of the development in any existing
development and proposed development in its surrounding area these policy
guidelines, the location and type of services required and their relationship
Appendix H | 224
to the proposed development and to existing and proposed development in
the area, and subsection 59(2) of the Development Charges Act, 1997
These local service policy guidelines are subject to review and amendment
by the Town which may be independent of an amendment or update to the
Townʼs development charge by-laws.
The detailed engineering requirements for all work and/or development are
governed by the Town of The Blue Mountains, or if not specified in the
Official Plan, by the approved detailed engineering standards.
"Local service" funding is being specifically considered for the services of:
1. Roads and Related Services
2. Water Services
3. Wastewater Services
4. Parkland Development
i.
Roads and Related
a)
Arterial Roads:
New arterial roads and arterial road improvements are included as part of
road costing funded through DCs. Only the oversizing component would be
recovered through DCs and local road equivalent costs are considered to be
a local service.
b)
Collector Roads:
The local component of a collector road internal to a development is a direct
developer responsibility under s.59 of the DCA as a local service. The
oversized share of a collector road internal to a development is development
charge recoverable.
Collector roads external to a development are a local service if the works are
within the area to which the plan relates and therefore a direct developer
Appendix H | 225
responsibility under s.59 of the DCA. Otherwise, the works are included in
the DC calculation to the extent permitted under s.5(1) of the DCA.
c)
Local Roads:
Local roads, within a development are local services and a direct developer
responsibility under s.59 of the DCA.
d)
Additional Works:
Traffic Signals and Intersection Improvements due to development and
development-related traffic increases are to be included in the DC
calculations, as part of the arterial, collector and local road components.
e)
Subdivision/Site Entrances and Related:
Entrances and all related costs (including, but not limited to: signalization,
turn lanes, utilities and extensions, etc.), no matter the class of road, are a
local service and a direct developer responsibility under s.59 of the DCA.
f)
Streetlights:
Streetlights internal to a development or site are a direct developer
responsibility through local service provisions (s.59 of the DCA).
Streetlights external to a development but related to the subject lands are a
direct developer responsibility through local service provisions (s.59 of the
DCA).
New streetlights in other areas related to development are included in the
DC calculation to the extent permitted under s.5(1) of the DCA.
g)
Sidewalks:
Sidewalks internal to a development or site are a direct developer
responsibility through local service provisions (s.59 of the DCA).
Sidewalks external to a development but required and related to the subject
lands are a direct developer responsibility through local service provisions
(s.59 of the DCA).
Appendix H | 226
New sidewalks in other areas related to development are included in the DC
calculation to the extent permitted under s.5(1) of the DCA.
h)
Bike or Transit Lanes:
Bike or transit lanes, where requested, internal to a development or site are
a direct developer responsibility through local service provisions (s.59 of the
DCA).
Bike or transit lanes external to a development but required and related to
the subject lands are a direct developer responsibility through local service
provisions (s.59 of the DCA).
New bike or transit lanes in other areas related to development are included
in the DC calculation to the extent permitted under s.5(1) of the DCA.
i)
Noise Abatement Measures:
Noise abatement measures internal to a development are a direct developer
responsibility through local service provisions (s.59 of the DCA).
Noise abatement measures external to a development but required and
related to, or mitigate impacts from, the development of the subject lands,
are a direct developer responsibility through local service provisions (s.59 of
the DCA).
j)
Street Tree Planting:
Street tree planting, as required by Municipal Standards, is considered a
local area service and a direct responsibility of the developer.
k)
Land Acquisition for Road Allowances:
Land acquisition for planned road allowances within development lands is a
dedication under the Planning Act provisions.
Land acquisition for planned road allowances outside of development lands,
and that is not a dedication under the Planning Act , is included in the DC
calculation to the extent permitted under s.5(1) of the DCA.
Appendix H | 227
Additional land acquisition for bridges or grade separations (beyond normal
dedication requirements) is included in the DC calculation, to the extent in
which it is eligible and identified, if applicable, in the Development Charges
Background Study.
For further clarification, all improvements to a road to facilitate development
are considered local services and are to be paid by the developer unless
they fall into one of the following categories:
The improvement is designated as required for traffic flow improvement for
an area greater than the development, is defined as a road improvement
required by the Town, and is identified through the Class Environmental
Assessment process or a Town Transportation Study. Such an improvement
would be listed in the Development Charges Background Study.
The improvement is designated as required by Town Staff to serve a greater
area than the development and is identified in the capital forecast and is
listed in the Development Charges Background Study.
ii.
Water Services
All water supply, storage, treatment facilities and booster pumping stations
may be included in the development charge calculation.
Watermains within the development that are larger than 300mm are to be
included in the development charge calculation. The amount of cost
contribution for watermains within a development shall be calculated using
tendered unit prices and shall be the difference between the cost of the
actual pipe diameter and the cost of a 300mm pipe diameter including a 12%
engineering fee. Only watermain and valves will be included in the
calculation. Any costs related to the depth of pipe are the responsibility of
the developer.
Water mains within the development that are 300mm and under are deemed
to be a local service and are a direct funding responsibility of the developer.
Appendix H | 228
Connections to trunk mains and pumping stations to service specific areas
are to be a direct developer responsibility.
Trunk watermains, generally outside the development area, identified by a
Class Environmental Assessment, Servicing Study or by Town Staff will be
included in the development charge calculation.
iii.
Wastewater Services
All sanitary sewage treatment facilities are to be included in the
development charge calculation.
Major sanitary trunk sewers, external to the development, and major
pumping stations serving more than one development are to be included in
the development charge calculation. These services will be identified
through a Class Environmental Assessment, Servicing Study or by Town
staff.
Sewer collectors within the development that are 450 mm and under are
deemed to be a local service and are a direct funding responsibility of the
developer. Sanitary sewers within the development that are larger than
450mm that also service upstream properties will have cost sharing
calculated on the tendered unit prices and shall be the difference between
the cost of the actual pipe diameter and the cost of a 450mm pipe including
a 12% engineering fee. All other appurtenances with respect to oversizing
and any costs related to the depth of pipe are the responsibility of the
developer.
Connections to collectors and pumping stations to service specific areas are
to be a direct developer responsibility.
Sewage pumping stations within the development or local pumping stations
serving a small localized area are deemed to be a local service and are a
direct funding responsibility of the developer or developers on a flow area or
proportional basis, or by agreement between the developers.
Appendix H | 229
Upgrades to, or the construction of permanent pumping stations that are
required as a result of an approved serviceability study that service more
than one developer, will be funded under one of the following possible
approaches:
a) Through a development cost sharing agreement amongst the
benefiting land owners. This is the Townʼs preferred approach; or
b) Through a Town facilitated developer cost sharing arrangement, such
as an area-specific development charge or other similar mechanism.
Under this approach, the Town will require one or more of the
benefitting land owners to front-end finance the cost of the works.
iv.
Parkland Development
For the purpose of parkland development, local service includes the
requirement for the owner to undertake preparation of a conceptual park
plan including proposed grading to demonstrate that the proposed park size,
configuration and topography will allow for the construction of park facilities
to the satisfaction of the Town.
The municipality also requires the owner to dedicate parkland or provide
cash-in-lieu, consistent with the Planning Act provisions. All of these costs
are deemed a direct responsibility of the owner 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 DC calculation,
including detailed design and contract administration, finished grading,
sodding, park furniture, electrical, water, sanitary sewer, signage, plant
material, walkways, play courts, parking lots, sports fields, playground
equipment, water play equipment, recreational trails, park shelters and
lighting.
Appendix H | 230
a)
Recreational Trails:
The costs of the following items shall be the direct developer responsibility
as a local service
a. All costs associated with any recreational trails to be constructed
within the development (as incorporated in Section D6 of the
Official Plan); and
b. Rough grading and any associated infrastructure (bridges and
abutments, guard and hand rails, retaining walls) of all
recreational trails and multi-use paths that are considered part of
the Townʼs Public Walkways Network (as incorporated in Section
D6 of the Official Plan) within the development.
The costs of new trails/walkways in other areas related to development
shall be paid through DCs.
b)
Parkland:
The costs for parkland development as set out in the relevant development
agreement shall be the direct developerʼs responsibility as a local service.
The costs of the following items shall be paid through DCs:
a. All costs associated with program facilities and non-local parkland
in addition to all associated site works beyond the base parkland
development.
