On behalf of the Town of Lincoln we have reviewed proposed Bill 108, The Proposed More Homes, More Choice Act. As requested by the Ministry, we have prepared the following feedback for Bill 108.
The Town recently completed a significant undertaking to enact DC By-law No. 2018-93 on October 1, 2018 and which expires on October 1, 2023. The proposed amendments to the Development Charges Act will significantly impact the Town’s financial planning, revenues, collection risks, and ability to manage cash flow for necessary growth-related infrastructure. Given the magnitude of changes proposed, effective transition will be critical for the Town. As such, the Town respectfully requests that the Province lengthen the proposed transition provisions to tie the prescribed enactment date for all proposed amendments to the Development Charges Act to the expiry date of an existing DC by-law.
The Town also respectfully requests that the Province consult with municipalities prior to issuing any regulations associated with Bill 108.
A copy of Report PD 49-19 provides preliminary implications of the changes proposed by Bill 108 to the Town and is attached for your information.
