Summary

2016 - 2025 Capital Budget and Plan

 

This report presents the City of Toronto's 2016 - 2025 Budget Committee (BC) Recommended Tax Supported Capital Budget and Plan and recommends approval of 2016 Capital Budget and future year cash flow commitments for new capital projects. The 2016 Budget Committee Recommended Capital Budget totals $3.008 billion (including 2015 carry forward funding of $767.749 million) requiring $879 million in debt funding and future year cash flow commitments of $9.587 billion.  Furthermore, this report requests approval of the 2017 - 2025 Capital Plan of $9.138 billion, which will form the basis for developing future capital budgets, in accordance with the City’s multi-year financial planning and budgeting policies and practices.

 

The 2016 - 2025 Capital Budget and Plan tries to satisfy Council's strategic priorities, balances the City's priority for state of good repair (SOGR) capital work and growth needs to address service gaps and focuses on prioritizing capital projects based on requirements, benefits and funding capacity. It places priority on the most urgent projects that protect the health and safety of citizens, meets legislated requirements, and those that maintain the City’s infrastructure in a state of good repair. The 10 year Capital Budget and Plan allocates $13.187 billion or 63% to SOGR projects and $6.829 billion or 33% to service improvement and growth related projects.

 

Despite the significant capital investments being made in this Capital Plan, the City is facing particularly challenging issues with an aging infrastructure while planning for a growing population and address unmet service needs. The City has identify unfunded capital investments valued at $22.337 billion. While not all of the identified unmet capital projects are ready to be implemented immediately and there is opportunity for other funding sources, it is apparent that the City lacks sufficient revenues to fund all of the City's unmet capital requirements on its own over the next ten to twenty years.

 

In preparation of the 2016 - 2025 BC Recommended Tax Supported Capital Budget and Plan, staff undertook a detailed review of capital requirements to ensure the City's highest needs are addressed within the approved debt affordability framework. However, there are still projects that must eventually be built (George Street Revitalization, AODA improvement and Long Term Care Revitalization) that must be done, but fall outside of the budget due to lack of funding.

 

In 2017 and beyond, the City needs to set priorities for capital work and assess revenue options in order to address unmet capital needs. The options may include, but not be limited to development financing, tax incremental financing, higher debt, capital levies, asset sales, road tolls and other new revenues.  In addition, the City can revisit the self-imposed 15% limit on the debt service cost to tax levy ratio as part of the Long Term Fiscal Plan.

 

In order to manage debt, the 10 year Capital Budget and Plan continues to implement the non-debt capital funding strategies that include the annual 10% increase in Capital from Current (CFC) funding; Surplus Management Policy that allocates 75% of operating budget surplus allocated to capital financing; utilizing the proceeds from the monetization of the City’s marketable assets; maximizing Development Charges funding; and new Provincial and Federal funding to offset future capital plan pressures.

 

 

2016 Operating Budget

 

This report presents the 2016 Budget Committee (BC) Recommended Tax Supported Operating Budget and seeks Council's approval for service spending plans, service levels, and associated staffing detailed therein. The 2016 BC Recommended Tax Supported Operating Budget is $10.064 billion gross and $3.931 billion net (excluding the Scarborough Subway Extension Special Levy).

 

The 2016 BC Recommended Tax Supported Operating Budget focuses on transit services, traffic congestion strategies, public safety and wellness, arts and culture, parks and recreation. It makes key investments in keeping people moving with improved support to the City's most vulnerable residents through various poverty reduction initiatives of $45.504 million gross and $29.396 million net. In addition to maintaining current service levels, the City will make new investments while keeping the costs of City services affordable with a residential property tax increase of 1.3%.

 

For a fourth consecutive year, use of the prior year's surplus was eliminated. However, the 2016 BC Recommended Tax Supported Operating Budget is reliant on the assumption the Municipal Land Transfer Tax (MLTT) stabilizing at the 2015 actual level or increased by $100.5 million from the 2015 Approved Operating Budget, one-time revenue sources such as dividends and reserve contributions as well as a $11.2 million in unidentified reductions to be allocated across the City's Programs and Agencies. The 2016 BC Recommended Operating Budget has not addressed the City's fundamental fiscal challenges or risks. Therefore, 2016 is a transition year to a more material discussion which must be held with City Council prior to the 2017 Budget process with the goal of achieving a sustainable fiscal plan.

 

Furthermore, the 2016 BC Recommended Tax Supported Operating Budget includes a 25-cent cash fare increase and 10-cent increase for tokens and requires a 0.9% average tax levy increase over the 2015 budget which is well below the general rate of inflation. Based on the City's tax policy, this results in a 1.3% residential and 0.43% non-residential property tax increase. With City Council approving the final year of the three year phase-in of the additional tax levy for the Scarborough Subway construction (0.6% residential and 0.2% non-residential) the overall recommended total municipal tax increase for 2016 will be 1.3% resulting in a 1.9% residential and a 0.63% non-residential tax rate increase.

 

2017 and 2018 Plan

 

The City continues to face budgetary pressures in upcoming years. It is estimated that the pressure in 2017 and 2018 will be $449.8 million and $246.6 million respectively. The pressures are primarily being driven by:

 

- Expenditures due to inflationary costs of providing prior year services and service levels including cost of living adjustments and the annualization of costs for 2016 service investments. In addition, TTC's costs continue to grow including service improvements with the full implementation of Presto.

 

- Substantially slower revenue growth driven by lack of projected increase in the MLTT revenue, loss of Provincial funding and reversal of one-time revenue sources used to balance the 2016 budget.

 

- Demand for new service investments.

 

As a result, the 2017 and 2018 Plan continues to contain fiscal risks that the City needs to manage, such as revenue reliance on the MLTT and increase in TCHC expenses. In addition, addressing unmet capital needs of over $22 billion will incur significant operating impact on future debt servicing charges.

 

In preparation for the 2017 Budget process, City Council needs to determine what the City wants "to be", establish spending priorities for desired outcomes and explore all revenue funding options. Strategies will be brought forward to support Council's decision making in this regard.

Summary

City Council on November 3 and 4, 2015, adopted Item CD7.7, headed "Oakwood Vaughan Strategy", and in so doing, has forwarded the Oakwood Vaughan Strategy and Actions to the Budget Committee for consideration with other City priorities for 2016.

 

At its meeting of August 25-28, 2014, City Council approved the staff report: Update on the Relocation of Cornerstone Place Shelter and directed City staff to undertake a set of actions in collaboration with neighbourhood stakeholders to develop an Oakwood Vaughan Strategy.

 

This report outlines the Oakwood Vaughan Strategy and identifies actions that can be accomplished within existing City resources and actions that require additional resources in order to implement the Strategy.

 

With the assistance of a third party facilitator, City staff have convened the Oakwood Vaughan Community Working Group (OVCWG) to collaborate on development of the Oakwood Vaughan Strategy. The working group includes local residents, businesses, the ward Councillor, community agency staff, and City staff.

 

In addition, an interdivisional Project Management Team (PMT), with representation from a number of City Divisions, Agencies and Boards including Social Development, Finance and Administration, Shelter Support and Housing Administration, Economic Development and Culture, Toronto Public Library, Toronto Public Health, Parks, Forestry and Recreation, City Planning and Toronto Police Service, has been established to facilitate internal supports for the development and implementation of the Oakwood Vaughan Strategy.

2ab - 2015 Participatory Budgeting Pilot

Origin
(December 30, 2015) Report from the City Manager
Summary

City staff undertook a Participatory Budgeting (PB) in 2015 in three areas of the City: Rustic in Ward 12 and Oakridge in Ward 35, both Neighbourhood Improvement Areas (NIAs), and Ward 33.  Participatory Budgeting (PB) is a process where residents propose, develop and vote on projects funded by the government, to improve their City.

 

The City of Toronto piloted a PB process in 2015 that resulted in the communities selecting seven (7) community improvement projects at a total cost of $435,000.  This report authorizes the Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer to fund the cost of these community improvements in the amount of $370.000 gross, $0 debt from the Parkland Acquisition Reserve Fund; and $65,000 gross, $0 debt from the Public Realm Reserve Fund. 

 

The findings of the City's pilot, and research from other PB initiatives around the world, suggest that the benefits of PB are often incremental when a PB process is implemented over several budget cycles, is a priority of the government, meets the needs of the community, adequately resourced and subject to ongoing evaluation. 

 

This report recommends that the 2015 pilot be extended for 2016 and 2017 in the same wards and that the capital funding allocation for each area is increased from $150,000 to $250,000.   The pilot extension requires a temporary position at a cost of $138,000 in the City Manager’s Office 2016 Operating Budget to coordinate the PB process and project evaluation. The pilot extension will conclude with a comprehensive evaluation and report to City Council in 2018.

2ai - Suspension of Taxi Licensing Renewal Fees

Origin
(January 22, 2016) Letter from the Licensing and Standards Committee
Summary

The Executive Director of Licensing and Standards is currently reviewing Taxi Licensing Fees as part of her review of all Municipal Licensing Fees.

 

Licensing fees are based on a Cost Recovery Basis and it is my opinion that the Taxi Industry has long been overcharged and overpaying.

 

As you know, the Taxi Industry is in an unfair position of having to pay exorbitant costs while other services that provide the exact same service get a free ride, which puts the Legal Taxi Industry at risk.

 

This review is expected to be completed mid-2016 and I anticipate that licensing fees for Taxis will be reduced dramatically.

The City receives funding under the Provincial Gas Tax (Dedicated Gas Tax for Public Transportation Program), the Federal Gas Tax Fund, the Streetcar (LRV) Fleet Replacement Program and the Building Canada Fund. Projects are also supported by other sources of funding such as Transit Secure and VIA Rail, as well as the Move Ontario Trust and Metrolinx. The City is in the application stage for new funding and has also received federal commitments under new programs for public transit.

 

In total, the Government of Canada and the Province of Ontario are expected to contribute $6.461 billion (19%) towards the $33.5 billion 2016-2025 Preliminary Tax and Rate Supported Capital Budget and Plan (federal: $3.319 billion; provincial: $3.142 billion). A supplementary report has been submitted which requests Council authority to negotiate and execute required agreements, and to make the necessary budget amendments, for the Canada 150 Community Infrastructure Program which will increase the expected federal contribution by $0.93 million.

 

The federal government has committed to investing a total of $125 billion in infrastructure over the next decade, which includes existing programs plus $60 billion in new spending in social infrastructure, green infrastructure and public transit. City staff are in the process of identifying priority projects to be considered for funding under new programs, per Council direction, and will report back to seek approval of any required contribution agreements.
