Summary

This report presents a proposed amendment to Development Charge By-law No. 1347-2013 for consideration at a statutory public meeting. The sole purpose of the amendment is to clarify the time at which development charges are calculated, payable and collected in cases where a development is built out in phases.

 

This technical amendment to the by-law has been developed in consultation with Toronto Building, and is recommended in addition to procedural changes that have been implemented to avoid confusion and potential loss of development charge revenue.
