City Council will consider the 2015 Rate Supported Budgets for the Toronto Parking Authority at its meeting on March 10 and 11, 2015.

This report serves to outline the Toronto Parking Authority's multi-year plan to retrofit and apply the design guidelines outlined in the Design Guidelines for 'Greening' Surface Parking Lots ('Greening Guidelines').  The Toronto Parking Authority ('TPA' or 'the Authority') recognizes the need to incorporate environmentally responsible features in all of its parking facilities, adopting a less conventional approach when designing its surface carparks, where typically maximizing the numbers of parking spaces, maintenance and servicing efficiencies are priority considerations. This report will address the Authority's multi-year plan for 'greening', whereby the TPA will retrofit its existing and future surface parking lots.

The application of the Greening Guidelines at the Toronto Parking Authority will occur with:

-           New Development/Acquisition of Surface Parking Lots and Garages

-           Major Redevelopment Initiatives

-           Retrofitting in conjunction with the Surface Carpark Repaving Program

The majority of existing surface parking lots will require retrofitting in conjunction with the Surface Carpark Repaving Program. TPA has identified about 130 carparks that need 'greening', that is, approximately 7 carparks per year in a 19 year time span between 2015 and 2033. TPA staff has determined that given its existing staff resources a maximum of 7 carparks per year can be retrofitted.

The Executive Committee recommends that:

CAPITAL BUDGET

This report presents the City of Toronto's Tax Supported 2015 - 2024 Budget Committee (BC) Recommended Capital Budget and Plan and seeks Council approval of the 2015 Recommended Budget of $1.995 billion (excluding 2014 carry forward funding) and future year cash flow commitments of $6.650 billion for capital projects.  Furthermore, this report requests Council’s approval of the 2016 - 2024 Capital Plan of $11.022 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 City's capital requirements are growing, driven by the city's population growth, maintenance of aging infrastructure, as well as requirements to consistently meet service needs and industry standards and legislated requirements. As of 2014, the City has $74 billion in infrastructure and physical assets, as well has $7 billion in unmet capital investments needs.

2015-2024 Capital Budget and Plan balances City's priority for State Of Good Repair (SOGR) capital work and growth needs to address service gaps. 10-Year Capital Budget and Plan allocates $12.166 billion or 61.9% of its capital investments to State Of Good Repair projects and $6.687 billion or 34% to service improvement and growth related projects.

The City focused on prioritizing capital projects based on needs and benefits.  Comparing the 2014 – 2023 Capital Budget and Plan, the 2015 - 2024 Capital Budget and Plan includes $1.566 billion of additional debt funding to address priority needs in areas such as: transit, transportation, facilities, technology, as well as to provide funding to stabilize the City's state of good repair backlog. As a result, the accumulated state of good repair backlog is expected to be maintained at 6% to 6.8% of the total estimated asset value over the next 10 years.

Notwithstanding significant funding challenges, the 2015 - 2024 Capital Budget and Plan is fiscally prudent. The 2015-2025 Capital Plan ensures that the City’s debt burden remains just below the Council approved maximum debt service charge ratio of 15% of the tax levy, while meeting our capital spending needs. Additionally, the debt funding plan also helps in addressing the shortfall in CFC (Capital from Current) as part of the strategy to mitigate the $86 million Provincial funding loss for social Housing. Approval of the 10-Year Recommended Capital Plan, results in debt service charges inclusive of the Scarborough Subway budgeted at 11.5% in 2015, peaking at 14.9% in 2020 before declining to 12.9% in 2024.

In order to manage debt, the 10-Year Capital Budget and Plan continues to implement the non-debt capital funding strategies comprised of the continuation of the Surplus Management Policy (75% of operating budget surplus allocated to capital financing), proceeds from the monetization of the City’s marketable assets; maximizing Development Charges funding; and new Provincial and Federal funding targets to offset future capital plan pressures.

In preparation for the 2016 Budget process, staff will undertake a detailed review of the City's 2016-2025 capital requirements to ensure the City's highest needs are addressed within the approved debt affordability framework.

OPERATING BUDGET

This report presents the 2015 Budget Committee (BC) Recommended Tax Supported Operating Budget and seeks Council’s approval for the services, service levels, and spending plans detailed therein.  The 2015 BC Recommended Tax Supported Operating Budget is $9.848 billion gross and $3.849 billion net (excluding the Scarborough Subway Extension special levy).

The 2015 BC Recommended Tax Supported Operating Budget focuses on "Getting Toronto Moving" by improving transit services and transportation infrastructure, making key investments to help families and support for the City's most vulnerable residents through poverty reduction initiatives.  In addition to maintain the current service level, the City makes new investments as directed by City Council while keeping the cost of City services affordable and a property tax increase below inflation.  The major investments include support for the 2015 PanAm and Parapan American Games of $93 million, transit and transportation of $36 million and poverty reduction initiatives of $17 million.  Moreover, the 2015 BC Recommended Operating Budget makes major strides in addressing the loss of Toronto Pooling Compensation for Social Housing from the Province.

For a third consecutive year, significant advancements were made in achieving fiscal sustainability by eliminating the use of prior year’s surplus.  Revenue sources were maximized in accordance with expenditure growth.  Furthermore, the 2015 Budget Committee Recommended Tax Supported Operating Budget includes a moderate TTC fare increase of 10 cents to fund service improvements and a 1.5% average tax levy increase over the 2014 budget which is below the general rate of inflation.  Based on the City's tax policy, this results in a 2.25% residential and 0.75% non-residential property tax increase.  With City Council approving the additional tax levy for the Scarborough Subway construction (0.50% residential and 0.17% non-residential) the overall recommended total municipal tax increase in 2015 will be 1.8% resulting in 2.75% for residential and 0.92% for non-residential.

2016 and 2017 Plan

The City continues to face budgetary pressures in upcoming years.  It is estimated that the pressure in 2016 and 2017 will be $305 million and $276 million respectively after taking into account a potential moderate tax rate, assessment growth and TTC fare increases.  The pressures are primarily driven by inflationary costs of providing prior year services and service levels including cost of living adjustments, the annualized costs for 2015 service investments and budget adjustments to address the loss of Provincial funding for Social Housing.  It is critical that the City find budget adjustments and/or revenues of $44 million in 2016 and $45 million in 2017 to compensate for the loss of Provincial funding for Social Housing.
