law, on the date that the first building permit is issued in relation to a Building or

(4)
Where a Development Charge applies to land in relation to which a building permit is
required, the building permit shall not be issued until the Development Charge has been
paid in full.
(5)
Notwithstanding subsection 5 (1), Development Charges for Rental Housing and
Institutional Developments are due and payable in 6 equal installments commencing
with the first installment payable on the date of occupancy, and each subsequent
installment, including interest, payable on the anniversary date each year thereafter.
(6)
Notwithstanding subsections 5 (1) and 5 (3), 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 the
prescribed amount of time of building permit issuance, the Development Charges under

Interest for the purposes of subsections 5 (5) and 5 (6) shall be calculated as per the

under section 51 or 53 of the Planning Act that the Owner, at his or her own expense,
shall install or pay for such Local Services, within the Plan of Subdivision or within the
area to which the plan relates, as Council may require.
7. MULTIPLE CHARGES
(1)

Charge shall be calculated and collected in accordance with the provisions of this by-

increase in the number of Residential Dwelling Units and/or a net increase in the
amount of Non-Residential Gross Floor Area, additional Development Charges shall be
calculated and collected in accordance with the provisions of this by-law.
Page 15 of 64
8. SERVICES IN LIEU
(1)
Council may authorize an Owner, through an agreement under section 38 of the Act,
to substitute such part of the Development Charge applicable to the Owner's
Development as may be specified in the agreement, by the provision at the sole
expense of the Owner, of services in lieu. Such agreement shall further specify that
where the Owner provides services in lieu in accordance with the agreement, Council
shall give to the Owner a credit against the Development Charge in accordance with
the agreement provisions and the provisions of section 39 of the Act, equal to the
reasonable cost to the Owner of providing the services in lieu. In no case shall the
agreement provide for a credit which exceeds the total Development Charge payable
by an Owner to the County in respect of the Development to which the agreement
relates.
(2)
In any agreement under subsection 8 (1), Council may also give a further credit to the
Owner equal to the reasonable cost of providing services in addition to, or of a greater
size or capacity, than would be required under this by-law.
(3)
The credit provided for in subsection 8 (2) shall not be charged to any Development
Charge reserve fund.
9. FRONT-ENDING AGREEMENTS
(1)
Council may authorize a front-ending agreement in accordance with the provisions of
Part III of the Act, upon such terms as Council may require, in respect of the
Development of land.
10. DEMOLITION AND CONVERSION CREDITS FOR REDEVELOPMENT OF LAND
(1)
If a Development involves the demolition of and replacement of all or part of a Building
or structure, or the conversion from one principal use to another, a credit shall be
allowed, provided that the land was improved by occupied structures, or structures
capable of being occupied without structural improvement, within the five years prior to
the issuance of the building permit, and the building permit has been issued for the
development within five years from the date the demolition permit has been issued;
and;
(2)
Subject to subsection 10 (3), the credit shall be calculated:
(a)
in the case of the demolition or conversion of a Building, or a part of a Building,
used for a Residential purpose, by multiplying the number and type of Dwelling
Units demolished or converted by the relevant Development Charge in effect
under this by-law on the date when the Development Charge with respect to the
redevelopment is payable pursuant to this by-law; or
(b)
in the case of the demolition or conversion of a Building, or part of a Building,
used for a Non-Residential purpose, by multiplying the Non-Residential Total
Floor Area demolished or converted, by the relevant Development Charge in
effect under this by-law on the date when the Development Charge with respect
to the redevelopment is payable pursuant to this by-law.
Page 16 of 64
(3)
A credit can, in no case, exceed the amount of the development charge that would
otherwise be payable. No credit is available if the use for which the
demolished/converted buildings or structures was last lawfully occupied is exempt
under this by-law.
(4)
Notwithstanding subsection 10 (1) above, where the Building cannot be demolished
until the new Building has been erected, the Owner shall notify the County in writing
and pay the applicable Development Charge for the new Building in full and, if the
existing Building is demolished not later than twelve (12) months from the date a
building permit is issued for the new Building, the County shall provide a refund
calculated in accordance with this section to the Owner without interest. If more than
twelve (12) months is required to demolish the existing Building, the Owner may make
a written request to the County, and the County's Treasurer or designate, in his or her
sole and absolute discretion and upon such terms and conditions as he or she
considers necessary or appropriate, may extend the time in which the existing Building
must be demolished, and such decision shall be made prior to the issuance of the first
building permit for the new Building.
11. RESERVE FUNDS
(1)
Monies received from payment of Development Charges under this by-law shall be
maintained in a separate reserve fund for each Service category set out in Schedule
"A".
(2)
Monies received for the payment of Development Charges shall be used only in
accordance with the provisions of section 35 of the Act.
(3)
Council directs the County Treasurer to divide the reserve fund created hereunder into
separate accounts in accordance with the Service categories set out in Schedule "A" to
which the Development Charge payments, together interest earned thereon, shall be
credited.
(4)
Where any Development Charge, or part thereof, remains unpaid after the due date,
the amount unpaid shall be added to the tax roll for the property on which the
Development occurred and shall be collected as taxes.
(5)
Where any unpaid Development Charges are collected as taxes under subsection 13
(4), the monies so collected shall be credited to the development charge reserve funds
referred to in subsection 13 (1).
(6)
The County Treasurer shall in each year commencing in 2025 for the 2024 year, furnish
to Council a statement in respect of the reserve funds established hereunder for the
prior year, containing the information set out in section 12 of O. Reg. 82/98.
12. BY-LAW AMENDMENT OR APPEAL
(1)
Where this by-law or any Development Charge prescribed thereunder is amended or
repealed either by order of the Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT) or by resolution of Council,
the County Treasurer shall calculate forthwith the amount of any overpayment to be
refunded as a result of said amendment or repeal.
Page 17 of 64
(2)
Refunds that are required to be paid under subsection 12 (1) shall be paid with interest
to be calculated as follows:
(a)
Interest shall be calculated from the date on which the overpayment was
collected to the date on which the refund is paid;
(b)
The Bank of Canada interest rate in effect on the date of enactment of this by-
law shall be used.
(3)
Refunds that are required to be paid under subsection 12 (1) shall include the interest
owed under this section.
13. BY-LAW INDEXING
(1)
The Development Charges set out in Schedules "B1" to "B28" to this by-law shall be
adjusted annually as of June 13, without amendment to this by-law, in accordance with
the most recent twelve month change in the Statistics Canada Quarterly, "Construction
Price Statistics".
14. SEVERABILITY
(1)
In the event any provision, or part thereof, of this by-law is found by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be void, voidable, unenforceable or ultra vires, such provision, or part
thereof, shall be deemed to be severed, and the remaining portion of such provision
