Smaller municipalities have fewer dollars to pay for more qualified financial staff, and are faced with justifying to council and the public the need for dedicated financial analysts, versus generalists wearing multiple hats.

Yesterday, the government released "A Place to Call Home", the final report of their Expert Advisory Panel on Homelessness. The report describes the complexity of the problem and outlines a number of recommendations, including some that propose local action by municipal governments and District Social Service Administration Boards (DSSABs). One example is to conduct an enumeration of local homeless populations. The Province is committing to a number of immediate and long-term actions in response to the report. Most significantly, the government announced that it would set a target to end chronic homelessness in ten years. In addition, the following immediate next steps will be taken: • providing up to $10 million over two years in targeted funding from the Local Poverty Reduction Fund to help prevent and end homelessness across the province • adopting the recommended definition of homelessness, including chronic homelessness, to build common language and understanding about the problem • planning to require enumeration at the local level to gather data about homelessness • prioritizing provincial action to reduce homelessness in four areas: youth, Aboriginal, and chronic homelessness, as well as homelessness following transitions from provincially-funded institutions and service systems, such as jails and hospitals. AMO is ready to work with the government on a number of policy fronts to help achieve the goal of ending chronic homelessness. It is a complex issue with overlapping responsibilities – from income support and employment programs to affordable housing, and more. To further the goal of ending chronic homelessness in ten years, continued provincial investment in housing and homelessness prevention programs are needed to support local actions such as enumerating the homeless population and finding people housing. Increasing the supply of affordable housing must also be part of the plan. AMO looks forward to the government releasing their updated Long-Term Affordable Housing Strategy in the near future. It is expected that the strategy will include measures to both sustain and expand the housing system. AMO’s Affordable Housing and Homelessness Task Force will further consider the implications of the report and its recommendations to provide timely advice to the AMO Board of Directors. For more information, please see the advisory group report and the government backgrounder.

At very least a curious relationship seems to exist. I am not aware to this point of any objections on the part of Seguin Township towards the TNPTB committee on the use of the Seguin’s copyrighted slogan. Does this mean Seguin Township endorses the activities of TNPTB? Do TNPTB committee members get special treatment? Please help me understand the following situations. 1. Spring runoff created a large sink hole at the entrance to the Rumball Camp for the Deaf this year. The roads department has committed to repairing the entrance at their convenience. This particular sink hole posses a daily danger to me and many others as we navigate between the hole and the ditch. I staked the hole so as to avoid it on my hundreds of trips past it this summer, and one of the deaf staff members from the Rumball Camp of the Deaf placed a pylon on it to make it visible to traffic. What concerns me is that Seguin Township did not mark it for safety concern, but rather left it for weeks before I marked it. I am not aware of any other sink holes caused by the 2015 spring runoff in Seguin that are yet unrepaired. I am not aware of any sink holes in Seguin Township that are not marked as soon as township staff are made aware of the hazard. 2. When I legally ride an ORV from my farm on Blackstone & Crane Lk. Rd. to the Rumball Camp for the Deaf and my daughter is legally riding a second ORV behind me, Seguin Township is requiring me to stop and have both bikes sound checked and inspected by camp staff. Seguin Township is also restricting the times at which my daughter and I can legally ride onto the Ontario Mission of the Deaf property even though no time restrictions exist on Blackstone & Crane Lk. Rd. Furthermore, because we are riding as a pair, do I stand to endure a lawsuite from TNPTB members (including councillors Osbourne and Buszynski) for what is deemed as ‘racing’? 3. Twice now my neighbour Bryan Buchan has risked my property in Seguin Township by lighting a bonfire in a restricted time without consequence from Seguin Township. He is a member of TNPTB committee. The first bonfire occurred in a complete fire ban in 2012; the second occurred this summer. Don Hood spoke with me on the phone in August regarding the matter. He explained that the 911 fire call was disregarded due to the uncertainty of the location of the fire. He later explained to my wife that the Ontario Building Code (OBC) supercedes the Forest Fire Protection Act (FFPA) thereby allowing Mr. Buchan to have a fire for ‘cooking and warmth’. Since Mr. Buchan has no building permit for his permanent cottage, his lot is not governed by the OBC. It is my understanding that the FFPA only permits a ‘cooking and warmth’ fire in a registered campground. How is it that Seguin Township has chosen not to impose consequence for these two illegal fires for a member of TNPTB committee? 4. Mr. Bruce Buchan (member of TNPTB) obtained a severance in Seguin Township by falsifying evidence. In particular, he claimed that there existed two permanent cottages on the subject lot. He claimed that he had procured legal road access through the Township of the Archipelago (TOA) but failed to provide documentation. He maintains a boat launch on Third Lake that was not mentioned in Seguin Council’s recent discussions of ‘Legal’ and Illegal’ boat launches in the township. Jennine Loewen has spoken many times to Seguin staff about this boat launch, including an FOI request concerning its ownership. Even so, this boat launch was not discussed by council in their recent deliberations. Mr. Buchan built a road through ES1 and Fish Habitat 1 lands in 2008 in the TOA to secure his falsified road access to his Seguin property. How is it that a TNPTB member can get away with these things in this day and age? Are special privileges granted to members of TNPTB because Councillors like Osbourne and Buszynski (and former Councillor Chidley) are active members of TNPTB? 5. There is no agreement between Seguin Township and the TOA regarding the joint ownership of what is now a public access to a Legal or Illegal boat launch on Third Lake. I understand that such an agreement is required by the Municipal Act. The TOA removed Loewen Farm gates without reference to a bylaw and without a registered survey, thus making the road a public access. Incidentally, TOA council consists of members of TNPTB committee as well. This road currently crosses TOA land, Loewen land (Paul Forth, Tulloch Engineering, 2015), and Seguin land. 6. On October 2nd , it was publicly stated by the legal council for Mr. Bruce Buchan and TNPTB committee that my wife Jennine Loewen was forcibly removed from Seguin Council Chambers and that she was banned from future council meetings. How is it that this lie was manufactured when to my knowledge the only TNPTB committee members at the council meeting were Councillors Osbourne and Buszynski? I have had to write Seguin Council in the past regarding TNPTB member and former Councillor Alex Chidley’s sexist gestures towards Jennine Loewen which occurred in council chambers during a council meeting. It was noted that Seguin Township did not employ an Integrity Commissioner. How is it that this overt discrimination against my wife is allowed to continue? Why is it that Seguin Councillors who are members of TNPTB committee are making it a pattern to harass Jennine Loewen? What is the relationship between TNPTB committee and Seguin Township? At the very least, I would like a response to each of my raised concerns. In addition, I would like: I. II. III. IV. Sincerely, Bruce Loewen Acknowledgement that this email was received, including a timeline for Seguin Council’s response. A formal apology to Jennine Loewen for the discrimination she has endured from Seguin Councillors past and present. Seguin Township to procure the services of an Integrity Commissioner to determine the nature of the relationship between Seguin Township and TNPTB committee and its agenda to harass the Rumball Camp for the Deaf and its supporters. Seguin Township to enter into a legal agreement with the TOA over the road that passes through my property to the boat launch on Third Lake.

You raise a number of issues, some that have been already responded to in correspondence from the Township to Jennine Loewen. Throughout your correspondence you make reference to “The Natural Place To Be Committee”. The Township of Seguin has no affiliation to such a committee nor can we confirm the actual existence of such a committee. The Township of Seguin has not received any correspondence from this committee that has been signed by any individual. I will respond to new issues numbered to correspond to your correspondence. 1. Public Works staff contacted the Ontario Mission/Camp for the Deaf groundskeeper on November 2, 2015 to coordinate the delivery of the culvert. In earlier discussions with the groundskeeper it was agreed that he would do the installation of the culvert if the Township provided the culvert and some gravel. The placement of the pylon/cone on the washout was overlooked by Public Works staff and not intentional. 2. Township of Seguin By-law No. 2015-076, Being a By-law to permit and regulate the operation of “Off- Road Vehicles” (ORV’s) on highways under the jurisdiction of The Corporation of the Township of Seguin does not place time restrictions on the operation f Off-Road Vehicles as defined in the By-law on municipally owned and maintained highways as defined in the By-law. OffRoad Vehicles travelling on private property do so at the pleasure and permission of the private property owner. The Township of Seguin’s Racing By-law and the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Ontario Mission/Camp for the Deaf apply to motorized vehicles participating in race events. Off-Road Vehicles on the Ontario Mission/Camp for the Deaf property not participating in race events would not be subject to the Racing By-law or however remain subject to the Township of Seguin Noise MOU. They By1aw the same as anyone e’se. 3. The Township of Seguin Fire Chief offers the fojiowing comments, the fire caH in question occurred on August 2, 2015. As explained on a phone conversation with ruce Loewen August 5, 2015, out normai process of dealing with the ca was foHowed. A by-saw officer responds to the scene and determines if the fire is leg& or not and then may request the fire depament to respond if required. In this case given the information given by the original 911 call, it was determined that the location of the fire was not in the Township of Seguin and therefore by-law did not attend. Comments regarding the Ontario building Code (OBC) and the Forest Fire Protection Act (FFPA) are not correct. There i5 no connection between the OBC and the FFPA. I would suggest that the comment regarding the FFPA only permits a “cooking and warmth” in a registered pground is not correct and should be clarified by 0ntacting the inistry of Natural Resources. 4. As you indicate Township staff have already had discussions on this matter with you and Jennine Loewen. 5 At this time I have no comments on alleged actions taken by the Township of The chipelago on lands under their jurisdictio 6. In correspondence dated October 20, 2015 copied to Jennine Loewen, the Township stated s. Loewen was not forcibly removed and banned from the Seguin Council Chambers. IV. This matter is at Council’s discretion and has been sponded to previOu5l.

Click here for our online version. Hello , November 2015 Provincial & Federal Funding Update Accessing Provincial & Federal Grants & Incentives is becoming complex and competitive along with the expectations from the relevant reviewing authority. Therefore, it is becoming increasingly important to have a coordinated and comprehensive grant strategy in order to leverage and optimize the use of your local taxpayer dollars. Within Municipalities, due to typical budget constraints, there is rarely one dedicated individual whose sole function is to complete or coordinate funding applications across all departments, let alone, to develop a comprehensive granting strategy. For this reason, many grant and incentive opportunities fall by the wayside. The granting process has become more competitive and only the best projects, those that most accurately match the funding program objectives, are achieving funding. The Provincial and Federal government’s funding process is becoming increasingly fragmented, and it can be very costly if opportunities are missed due to a lack of awareness, insufficient time to dedicate to preparing an application, or project misalignment with the funding goals; resulting in a rejected application. FairTax Grants & Incentives is a National Team of dedicated strategic professionals who will manage your entire granting process from the initial strategy, grant identification, application writing, and post-approval compliance support.

THE POLICY AGENDA Update on MFOA’s Recent and Upcoming Policy Work This week we have submitted our two finalized Municipal Act Review responses to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing. In addition we have submitted our Bill 73 - Smart Growth for Our Communities Act response to the Standing Committee on Social Policy. The Committee held their initial meeting to discuss the hearing process for Bill on October 26th. They are holding public hearings on November 2nd and 3rd where MFOA has been registered as a witness and will present to their position to the Committee. Bill 73 was introduced to propose amendments to both the Development Charges Act and the Planning Act. NEW MEMBERS Welcome new and returning members! We're pleased to have you join MFOA. We trust you will benefit from our vast resources and member network Get the latest presentations, updates, and videos from the MFOA. Upcoming changes to provincial disaster relief programs Since 2013, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing has been reviewing the Ontario Disaster Relief Assistance Program (ODRAP). As result, the province announced in August 2015 that they would be retiring ODRAP and replacing it with two new programs in early 2016: 1. Disaster Recovery Assistance for Ontarians 2. Municipal Disaster Recovery Assistance Changes to be implemented in the first program will eliminate the administrative burden of municipalities in facilitating recovery assistance for homeowners, small businesses, non-profits, farmers, etc., enabling the 11/6/2015 10:37 AM MFOA e-News: Provincial and Federal Funding Update 3 of 9 municipalities to focus their efforts on emergency response. The changes implemented in the second program will increase the timeframe for requests from 14 days to four months. There will also be significant changes to eligibility and funding. Previously, damage expenses incurred had to exceed 3% of the municipality’s annual tax levy and if approved the municipality would receive 100% reimbursement. The amendments introduce a new cost-sharing formula where the first 3% of damage expenses - in relation to the annual tax levy - are eligible for 75% reimbursement and damage expenses beyond the initial 3% will be eligible for 95% reimbursement. Full program guidelines will be published prior to launch in 2016. Until its official launch municipalities can continue to request assistance under ODRAP. Proposed CDS fee changes and budgeting In recent weeks we have fielded questions about how to budget for the proposed CDS fee changes and estimating issuing costs. In light of these questions we want to highlight four items about debenture issues and the proposed CDS fee changes: 1. Currently the fiscal agents cover the CDS issue fees, costs associated with security identifiers (ISIN/Cusip) and eligibility requests, which are currently relatively small. 2. The fee changes are proposed and not yet in effect – the proposed fees still require the approval of the three securities commissions in Canada (The Ontario Securities Commission, the British Columbia Securities Commission, and Autorite des marches financiers). 3. The Ontario Financing Authority has requested an exemption from the proposed fees on behalf of all federal, provincial and municipal governments. 4. There are lingering questions regarding the legality of applying any fee changes retroactively. Given these four items and the general uncertainty regarding the resolution of this situation, MFOA believes it would be premature to estimate a potential impact for a pending debenture issue.

In 2014, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry introduced a two-year black bear pilot in response to increasing concerns in some northern communities about conflicts with black bears. The pilot took place in eight Wildlife Management Units (WMUs) in northern Ontario all of which have communities with reported high levels of problem bear activity. The pilot ended on June 15, 2015. I appreciate that so many municipalities were able to discuss the 2014-2015 black bear pilot and to provide the ministry with feedback. Based on the support for broadening of the pilot, I am pleased to inform you that the ministry is 11/2/2015 11:48 AM Fwd: Message from Minister Bill Mauro, Minister of Natural Resources... 2 of 2 proposing to extend the pilot for an additional five years and expand it to include additional areas of northern and central Ontario starting in 2016 with the following modifications: include all WMUs that currently have a fall black bear hunting season (i.e., 88 WMUs), include non-resident hunters (in addition to Ontario residents), and regulate the baiting of black bears. Please see the enclosed map showing the WMUs that are within the proposed pilot areas. The harvest of bear cubs and females with cubs would continue to be prohibited during this early season. Anyone convicted of this offence could face a fine of up to $25,000 and up to one year imprisonment. A number of other provisions in the previous pilot would continue to apply. Currently, the ministry is seeking comments from the public, stakeholders, and Aboriginal communities and organizations on the proposed pilot through the Environmental Registry. The comment period for this proposal is from October 30 to November 30, 2015. To view the Environmental Registry proposal notice, please visit www.ontario.ca/environmentalregistry and enter #012-5485 in the search. My ministry recognizes that this proposal may be of interest to your municipality and welcomes your perspectives on the proposed pilot. As part of this proposed pilot, I look forward to working with you as we collectively continue to take steps to prevent human-bear conflict. Please contact my office to discuss any questions you might have.

Each Notice mailed this fall shows the assessed value and classification of a property based on a January 1, 2012 legislated valuation date, which is in place for the 2013‐2016 property tax years. The last province‐wide Assessment Update took place in 2012 when every property owner in Ontario received a Property Assessment Notice from MPAC. During non‐Assessment Update years, MPAC continues to review properties as new homes are built, owners renovate, structures are removed and properties change use. The next province‐wide Assessment Update takes place in 2016 for the 2017‐2020 property tax years. Although each Notice includes a variety of ways to contact MPAC, constituents may also contact your office. To help answer property taxpayers’ questions, an online information kit has been posted on mpac.ca. The kit includes: a sample Property Assessment Notice; a copy of the Information Insert included with every Notice; an Important Information About Your 2014 Property Assessment Notice brochure; and, a fact sheet about 2014 Notices. The key dates for the 2015 Notice mailing are: October 27, November 2 ,6, 2015 Property Assessment Notice delivery dates November 26, 2015 Amended Property Assessment Notice delivery December 7‐11, 2015 Assessment Rolls 10/28/2015 9:40 AM 2015 Property Assessment Notice Mailing 2 of 2 March 31, 2016 Deadline for filing a Request for Reconsideration Property owners are encouraged to visit aboutmyproperty.ca to confirm their property details and compare their property with others in their neighbourhood.

OUR ASSESSMENT. KNOW MORE ABOUT IT. Important information about your 2015 PROPERTY ASSESSMENT NOTICE MPAC currently assesses and classifies over five million properties, more than any other assessment jurisdiction in North America, with an estimated total value of more than $2.2 trillion. Every four years, MPAC updates the assessment of every property in Ontario. The next province-wide Assessment Update is in 2016. ASSESSMENTS & PROPERTY TAXES It is the accuracy of MPAC’s assessments that helps to ensure property owners pay their fair share, and nothing more. Municipalities determine their revenue requirements, set municipal tax rates and collect property taxes. Education tax rates, set by the Ontario government, may also be applied to the assessed value. Each municipality allocates property taxes to help pay for municipal services such as waste management, parks and leisure facilities, libraries and schools, roads, sidewalks and public transit, construction, police and fire protection. HOW ASSESSMENT WORKS To establish your property’s assessed value, MPAC analyzes sales of comparable properties in your area, and all of the key features that affect market value. This method, called Current Value Assessment, is used by most assessment jurisdictions in North America. When assessing residential properties, more than 200 different factors are considered, however, five major factors account for approximately 85% of the value: location, lot dimensions, living area, age of property and quality of construction. ASSESSMENT PHASE-IN To provide stability and ease to the impact of any significant increases in assessed value, increases resulting from reassessments are phased in. Decreases are applied immediately. Market increased in assessed value between January 1, 2008 and January 1, 2012 legislation valuation dates are phased in over four years (2013-2016). Phased in values are indicated on Property Assessment Notices. DISAGREE WITH YOUR ASSESSMENT? Please review your 2015 Notice carefully to make sure the information is correct. If a factual error has been made, we will correct it. Visit aboutmyproperty.ca to review the information MPAC has on file for your property. You can also learn how and why your property was assessed the way it was and compare your assessment with others in your neighbourhood. Look for your Roll number and Access key on your Property Assessment Notice to register. You can also obtain detailed information on up to six properties MPAC believes to be comparable to yours, free of charge, by writing to: MPAC, Attention: GRAD PO Box 9808, Toronto ON M1S 5T9 or Fax to: 1 866 297-6703 If you disagree with your property’s assessed value or classification, we will review your assessment free of charge through a Request for Reconsideration (RfR). Your deadline to file an RfR with MPAC is included on your Notice. There are two ways to file an RfR: 1 File an RfR online quickly and easily at aboutmyproperty.ca. You will be able to attach documents, pictures and reports to accompany your RfR, as well as check the status of your request. You may also mail or fax your form to MPAC. Forms are available at mpac.ca. a letter requesting a 2 Write reconsideration. In your letter, please include the 19-digit Roll number on your Notice, your full name, address and phone number, and the reasons why your assessment is incorrect, including any information you have to support your request. You may also choose to file an Appeal with the Assessment Review Board (ARB), an independent tribunal of the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General. At an ARB hearing, the onus is on MPAC to prove the accuracy of the assessed value of your property. MPAC will presentcomparable sold properties as evidence and will share that information with you prior to the hearing. You will also be asked to provide evidence to support your position. Ideally, you should select properties that are similar to yours. If your property, or a portion of it, is classified as residential, farm or managed forest, you must first file an RfR with MPAC before you are eligible to file an Appeal with the ARB. You have 90 days after MPAC has notified you of its decision on your RfR to file an Appeal with the ARB. The ARB has its own Appeal process. For more information, please contact the ARB at 1 866 448-2248 or 416 212-6349 or visit arb.gov.on.ca. To request that your property be eligible for the farm or managed forest classes or conservation land exemption, you must file an RfR with the respective program administrator. For more information, please contact MPAC or visit mpac.ca. For any other property type, you can choose to either file an RfR with MPAC or file an Appeal with the ARB by March 31, 2016.

We are currently focusing on Market Valuation Reports, which explain how the relevant methodology is applied to a group of properties. These reports will present relevant market data in relation to the legislated valuation date and show how key components were derived for that property type. Any factors associated with the methodology applied by an assessor (i.e., cost rates and economic indicators) will be included in these Reports. Consultations for Market Valuation Reports are planned for this fall. If you would like to participate, please contact [email protected]. For a full schedule, click here. Francais 2015 Property Assessment Notices On October 27, 2015, MPAC began mailing nearly one million Property Assessment Notices to property owners across the province. A variety of material is available on mpac.ca to help you answer property owner questions. For more information please contact your local regional manager. Community Outreach Improvements to MPAC’s TIP Program Each year, MPAC’s Tenant Information Program (TIP) collects property rental, income and expense information from more than 65,000 commercial, industrial and multi-residential properties in Ontario. In early 2016, MPAC will launch a new online tool for property owners to submit this information directly to MPAC. The new tool will replace the current paper-based TIP program, providing a more convenient, efficient and accurate method for property owners to submit their data. To support stakeholders through this transition MPAC’s 2015 TIP requests, originally planned for this fall, have been rescheduled to early next year. The following property types are not affected: amusement/gaming, golf courses, hotels/motels, large resort, long-term care facilities, mobile home parks and land lease properties, and retirement homes. 11/2/2015 10:43 AM MPAC News - October 2015 2 of 2 To learn more, visit the Tenant Information Program page on mpac.ca or contact your local regional manager.

Macroinvertebrates, like the bugs found in the bottom of our lakes and streams, have long been used as indicators of ecosystem health and water quality. The Canadian Water Network (CWN) funded a 3-year study of invertebrate communities in Muskoka lakes and streams to help answer the question of how these critters can be used to monitor the cumulative effects of multiple stressors in our watershed. The goals of the study were to characterize baseline biological condition, provide insights about which biological indices best distinguish developed and undeveloped lakes, and evaluate the influence that development and land-use has on biological communities. The findings of the research program will be used by the District of Muskoka in its popular Biological Monitoring Program to better report on the health of the lakes and rivers through lake association benthic monitoring programs. The talk culminated with Sarah Sinclair from Conservation Ontario providing an up-close look at some of the critters found in Muskoka’s water. Professor from Birmingham provides insights on how Muskoka's lakes can help save the world 11/6/2015 10:33 AM Downstream - MWC Newsletter (November 2015) 3 of 10 Is there anything more interesting than Daphnia? To well-known Muskoka researcher Dr. Norman Yan, the answer is no, and he is not alone. Dr. Yan's colleague, Dr. John Colbourne from the University of Birmingham, gave an intriguing presentation at the Muskoka Boat and Heritage Centre on October 26th in Gravenhurst featuring the tiny water fleas called Daphnia. Dr. Colbourne proposed using Daphnia as miniature indicators of the quality of our environment. As he explained, Daphnia have fascinating ways of coping with environmental change and hardship, including adapting to the thousands of human made chemicals that are poisoning our waters. It turns out that the ways these water fleas cope, combined with toxicological and evolutionary studies using other useful species in biomedical research, will allow to more immediately and accurately understand how chemicals adversely impact normal biological processes in most animals, including humans. This research will contribute to solving two existing challenges which inhibit our capacity to effectively assess environmental risk – comprehensiveness and timeliness – and will allow us to make better science-based decisions on how to best manage potential chemical health risks. Using Daphnia as our indicator, we can expose them to the waters of our target lakes and then measure the thousands of resulting metabolites in their blood. The responses of these sentinel fleas will tell us much more about environmental threats, far beyond the current methods. We are very excited about the possibilities this research presents for Muskoka and 11/6/2015 10:33 AM Downstream - MWC Newsletter (November 2015) 4 of 10 beyond. We believe that we are in a position to directly benefit from this program as well as to aid in refining and perfecting the processes for the benefit of the world’s freshwater lakes. We are now beginning to work with Dr. Colbourne and his team to build capacity in Muskoka for sample collection in our lakes as well as to do some preliminary analysis before shipping samples to Birmingham for complete evaluation. We will be striving to build further analytical capacity in Muskoka to support this effort and we will be embarking on fundraising activities in support of these goals. If you are interested in finding out more about the program and how you can help us to succeed, we encourage you to contact us. Working together we can make a remarkable difference on a local and global scale! KEVIN TRIMBLE, Climate Change Impacts Subcommittee Kevin Trimble is an ecological consultant with more than 25 years of experience assessing the impacts of many types of land use change in Ontario, most recently with Golder Associates in Barrie. Originally from an aquatic background, he integrates a number of terrestrial and aquatic disciplines with the water resource and groundwater sciences and has directed many types of restoration projects. Muskoka Watershed Council (MWC): What made you want to volunteer with MWC? Kevin: I was looking for a way to make a contribution with my background in the ecological aspects of land use, and also find a way to get better acquainted with the area and volunteerism here. I heard about MWC from an old friend, Al Shaw of Riverstone Environmental, and later from a new neighbour, Peter Sale, and I was so taken aback by how objective the group is, that I immediately wanted to be a part of it. MWC: What MWC projects are you involved in? Kevin: Apart from the main council, I got involved almost immediately in the Climate Change Impacts 11/6/2015 10:33 AM Downstream - MWC Newsletter (November 2015) 5 of 10 Subcommittee. I was impressed by the scientific backgrounds of many members, but also the ability of the less scientific members to play a key role in digesting all of the detailed information and turning it into something that a broader public can understand and act on. It has a very relevant and important task so I was happy to show support and help out. MWC: What is your favourite part about living in Muskoka? Kevin: I cottaged on Lake Simcoe my whole life, but was relatively unfamiliar with Muskoka until we moved here last spring. Being near the water is a huge draw for me, especially being able to live and work here year round. But I’ve also been taken by the sense of community and the mix of long time and newer residents in the towns we’ve spent time in so far. 5th annual Great Muskoka Paddling Experience a success!

Mississauga, Ontario Canada L5N 1V9 Phone: (905) 272-3600 Fax: (905) 272-3602 e-mail: [email protected] October 26, 2015 To the Standing Committee on Social Policy Dear Committee Members: Re: Comments on Bill 73: An Act to Amend the Development Charges Act and Planning Act On behalf of our municipal clients, we are pleased to submit our comments on the portion of Bill 73 which proposes changes to the Development Charges Act, 1997 (D.C.A.). Our firm has undertaken development charge (and formerly lot levy) studies for over 30 years and has prepared approximately 50% of the active development charge (D.C.) by-laws (and supporting background studies) in the Province. The undersigned also have participated in the Technical Group discussions established by the Province to advise the Working Committee on different aspects of Bill 73. Our comments provided herein respond directly to the proposed changes and generally, are more technical in nature. 1. Transit Service There are two areas of the Bill that specifically address changes to Transit services within the D.C.A. We provide comments on these changes, along with a further consideration related to the DC treatment of Transportation Services. 1.1 Transit services are added to the list of services for which no percentage reduction (i.e. 10%) of capital costs is required We are in support of this change. Transit is part of an overall transportation network and should be treated in a similar manner to Services Related to a Highway. 1.2 Transit Level of Service Transit is proposed to be included within the new section 5.2 of the D.C.A., which provides that services prescribed by the regulations would be limited by a planned level of service rather than being subject to subsection 5(1), paragraph 4 of the current D.C.A. (i.e. average historic level of service). H:\DCA-GEN\Standing Committee on Social Policy Letter - October 26 2015.docx Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. Page 2. Considerable discussion was undertaken during the Technical Group meetings as to what a “planned level of service” would be. One proposal was to maintain a mathematical approach using quantity and quality measures similar to that used for most services; however, this would be modified to be forward looking. Another proposal was to define the service level as being the projected end-state approved by Council either through resolution, long-term capital budget or adoption of a long-term Transit plan. Our firm’s preference is towards the latter approach. We would note that the adopted approach needs to be applicable to both small municipalities with emerging Transit services, as well as large municipalities with existing Transit services addressing intensification of development (i.e. Toronto, Mississauga). In this regard we feel that it is important that criteria be attached to the definition of a “planned level of service,” requiring a municipality to: Consider the existing service level and proposed future levels of service to accommodate growth; Consider future development and how transit services can accommodate the increased travel demands of future development after considering alternative modes of travel (i.e. how other services accommodate a portion of future travel demands); Identify capital works to meet the increased need for service; and Undertake a transparent process to discuss the above findings with the general public and stakeholders prior to Council’s consideration of a planned level of service. 1.3 Should Transit be considered a stand-alone service? The D.C.A. identifies rules and measures related to services generally grouped into two “silos,” i.e. those services requiring the 10% reduction in capital costs and limited to a 10-year planning horizon, and those services not limited by these factors. The proposed planned level of service for Transit services would serve to create a further sub-grouping, i.e. those services limited by the historic level of service, and those limited by the planned level of service. This fractured service approach does not lend itself well to the planning and recovery of growthrelated costs for Transportation services (i.e. those involved in the movement of goods, services and people). Components of Transportation services are presently dealt with as follows: Roads – not subject to the 10% reduction in capital costs – can be considered on a planning horizon of longer than 10 years – required to measure the historic level of service on a quality/quantity service level basis; Transit – presently subject to the 10% reduction in capital costs, but proposed to not be subject to this reduction under Bill 73 – presently limited to a 10-year planning horizon, with no proposed change under Bill 73 – presently subject to the historic level of service measurement, but proposed under Bill 73 to be measured on a planned level of service basis; H:\DCA-GEN\Standing Committee on Social Policy Letter - October 26 2015.docx Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. Page 3. Alternative Transportation Methods – there are other modes of travel which accommodate the movement of goods, services and people; however capital costs associated with these modes are addressed within other services of a development charge calculation. This may not be effective in recovering the appropriate capital costs to fund the increase in needs for service. For example: o Multi-use paths (trails) provide for walking or cycling as an alternative transportation mode to vehicles and transit. These service needs are planned on a trail system basis. Within the D.C. background study, multi-use paths within road allowances are most often included in Roads services (i.e. Services Related to a Highway). Multi-use paths outside of road allowances are most often included in Parks and Recreation services within D.C.s. The former is not subject to the 10% reduction in capital costs and is not limited to the 10-year planning horizon, whereas, the latter is subject to the 10% reduction in capital costs and is limited to a 10-year planning horizon; o B.R.T. (Bus Rapid Transit) - buses are included within the Transit service while the dedicated lanes on which they travel are included in Services Related to a Highway. Consideration should be given to allowing all Transportation services capital costs to be measured and included under one service category. 2. Voluntary Payments Bill 73 provides that “A municipality shall not impose, directly or indirectly, a charge related to a development or a requirement to construct a service related to development, except as permitted by this Act or another Act” (section 59(1)). The regulations will provide for “a prescribed class of developments or a prescribed class of services related to developments” for which these payment may be requested. We feel that this proposed amendment to the D.C.A. is overly prescriptive and will limit the ability of municipalities to accommodate growth in a fiscally sustainable manner as local Councils deem appropriate. We provide below a number of examples where the use of voluntary payments by municipalities has assisted in allowing development to proceed on a fiscally sustainable basis: 1. Town of Milton – Based on the Province’s Growth Plan Targets, Milton was planned to grow from 32,000 people (in 2000) to approximately 108,000 (by 2021). The Town undertook a review of all capital needs to accommodate growth and a fiscal impact assessment. Given the requirements for deductions, exemptions, service level caps, etc., under the D.C.A., the Town would have experienced high levels of taxation increases and would have exceeded its debt capacity limit (i.e. debt charges were forecast to almost reach 50% of the Town’s total own source revenues as compared to the Province’s imposed limit of 25%). Without voluntary payments, the outcome would have reduced the planned level of growth of 1,200 units per year to approximately 250300 units per year. Milton negotiated with the developing landowners to provide voluntary payments of $2,000-$3,000 per unit, parkland dedication in excess of H:\DCA-GEN\Standing Committee on Social Policy Letter - October 26 2015.docx Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. Page 4. Planning Act provisions and cash flow assistance towards road projects. This assistance facilitated development of up to 2,000 units per year, and the population target of 108,000 is estimated to be achieved this year. We would note that several other municipalities in York, Peel and Durham Regions have faced similar issues and have negotiated similar arrangements in order to allow growth to proceed in their communities in a fiscally sustainable manner. 2. City of Barrie – The City annexed lands from the Town of Innisfil which would allow for approximately 40,000 population growth, in addition to the City’s existing built boundary with sufficient capacity to accommodate a further 27,000 persons. The landowners within the annexed lands wish to proceed to develop at the same time as the landowners in the existing built boundary area. The City undertook a review of all capital needs for both the existing built boundary area and the annexed lands, along with a fiscal impact assessment. Gross costs to service these lands were $1.3 billion and $1 billion, respectively; however, only 65% of these costs were recoverable under the D.C.A. In addition, the City is facing aging infrastructure needs of $1.4 billion over the forecast period. The City could not afford to allow the annexed lands to proceed as it would have faced a 46% debt level and annual tax/rate increases in excess of 6%. The City negotiated with the annexed land developers to receive voluntary payments of $4,500 per unit (average) and cash flow assistance for water, wastewater and road services. 3. Most growth municipalities have multi-year capital budgets which identify the timing of construction for both growth-related and non-growth-related works. Growth-related works are normally planned based on discussions with developing landowners and allow for development to proceed in an orderly manner. There are instances where developing landowners approach the municipality to advance the timing of works. Sometimes the request to accelerate projects will “leap frog” other development or be advanced 10+ years. In many cases, there is a non-growth component to these projects which needs to be funded; however, the financial resources have not been planned for. Often the landowner will fund this non-growth cost in order to allow their development to proceed in advance of the original project timing. 4. Approximately 50% of Ontario municipalities have development charge by-laws. For those who do not have a by-law, any financial or servicing requirements imposed on developing lands are usually local in nature (e.g. turning lanes, signalization, sidewalks, localized water/wastewater/storm water works, etc.). Without undertaking a D.C. process to rationalize what is a local service vs. a D.C.-related work, the proposed section 59(1) may inhibit the ability for those lands to be serviced. Based on the above, we would perceive that the provision to restrict these types of contributions will impact the ability for lands to be developed. We would not recommend that the D.C.A. be amended to restrict these types of contributions. We would recommend that municipalities be allowed to continue imposing these financial conditions subject to negotiation with landowners and only when certain conditions are met, i.e.: H:\DCA-GEN\Standing Committee on Social Policy Letter - October 26 2015.docx Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. 3. Page 5. A fiscal impact of growth has been undertaken and the municipality identifies affordability concerns for the growth-related capital program. This fiscal impact assessment should be subject to a transparent public process and would form the basis for negotiating with developing landowners; Where the municipality is requested to accelerate the timing of capital works, that the non-growth portion of the works be funded by the developing landowner; For municipalities without a development charge by-law, the installation of localized works benefiting a development may be negotiated with individual landowners. Consideration of Area-specific Charges and By-laws Bill 73 provides that regulations may be made to require municipal Councils to use development charge by-laws only with respect to prescribed services and areas, or to use different development charge by-laws for different parts of the municipality. At this time, it is unclear as to the intent or the provisions for the prescribed services or areas. Presently, area-specific charges are most often used for water, wastewater and storm water services. These services provide for defined areas of benefit because of the physical nature of the service (i.e. mains). However, should other services be prescribed, there are limitations established by the D.C.A. regulations which would reduce the municipality’s ability to fully recover the costs of those works. Section 4(4) of O. Reg. 82/98 provides that, “if a development charge by-law applies to a part of the municipality, the level of service and average level of service cannot exceed that which would be determined if the by-law applied to the whole municipality.” Our recommendation is that any requirements established for Area Rating or a different by-law be limited to water, wastewater and storm water services. 4. Ineligible Services to be Defined by Regulation Bill 73 proposes to rewrite subsection 2(4) of the D.C.A. to identify all ineligible services within the regulations rather than the current D.C.A. where this is partly included in the Act and partly in the regulations. We agree that it is most convenient to include all defined ineligible services in one area of legislation. We also acknowledge that, based on government policy, it is most expedient to define by regulation those services which can and cannot be included in a development charge. Moreover, while not addressed specifically in the Bill, a provincial press release on the matter indicates that waste diversion services may be considered for inclusion as a D.C.-eligible service. This service inclusion would appear to include capital costs related to waste diversion services and not include solid waste collection, processing and disposal services. Our recommendation is that all growth-related capital costs related to waste management services be eligible for inclusion in D.C.s including waste collection, processing and disposal (including incineration). We would further recommend that, should the Province wish to H:\DCA-GEN\Standing Committee on Social Policy Letter - October 26 2015.docx Watson & Associates Economists Ltd. Page 6. change the eligibility of services in future, an open and transparent process be provided for dialogue and input from both municipalities and landowners. While we acknowledge that proposed changes to regulations are posted on a registry, the present process provides for a limited time period to respond and does not necessarily allow for a dialogue amongst stakeholders. 5. Asset Management Plan We acknowledge the requirement to consider the long-term financial sustainability of proposed new assets included in a D.C. background study. At this time the prescribed detailed requirements to be undertaken with respect to the inclusion of an Asset Management Plan are not known and hence it is difficult to fully comment on this. We would request that any proposed regulations be circulated to AMO, MFOA and AMCTO along with other stakeholders for review and comment. Amendment to the Treasurer’s Financial Reporting Requirements 6. We have reviewed the provisions within the Bill and deem that Municipal Treasurers would be able to provide this information in their statement. We agree with removing the requirement for the statement to be sent to the Province every year, as most of this information is already submitted to the Province annually through Financial Information Return reporting requirements (Schedule 61 of the Financial Information Return). 7. Payment at First Building Permit Bill 73 proposes to amend section 26 of the D.C.A. to provide that a development consisting of one building that requires more than one building permit will pay the development charge when the first permit is issued (e.g. issuance of a foundation permit). While this provision assists in defining when the payment is to be made, it does not provide the municipality the flexibility to recover additional charges should the nature of the development change between permits. For example: Most D.C. by-laws define high-density dwelling units by number of bedrooms (i.e. small units consisting of bachelor and one bedroom, large units consisting of two or more bedrooms). The actual number of large and small units may not be known at the time of first permit issuance; Mixed-use buildings often provide for retail or office uses on the first few floors of the development, with high-density residential on the remaining floors. It would be difficult to estimate the actual gross floor area of non-residential space at first permit issuance. As well, some municipalities differentiate their non-residential charges between retail and non-retail use. Once again, this mix of use and the sizing may not be known early in the development of the building. Our recommendation is that the proposed subsection 26(1.1) include the ability for a municipality to recalculate the development charge payment upon final building permit issuance.
