EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
The purpose of this report is to authorize a development charge credit for park development in the: Jackson Trails, Fairwinds, Barrhaven Mews, and, Half Moon Bay subdivisions. The development of the parks will be by Tartan (Jackson Trails Developments) Ltd., Mattamy (Fairwinds) Limited, Mattamy (Strandherd Ltd.) and Mattamy (Half Moon Bay) in advance of the City constructing the parks.
All subdivisions have been registered and contain a condition that requires the developer to enter into an agreement for the development of parkland. The subject report is intended to authorize staff to enter into parkland crediting agreements with the respective builders, and provide a means of repayment through development charge credits.
SOMMAIRE
Le but de ce rapport est d’autoriser un crédit de
redevances d’aménagements pour l’aménagement de parcs dans les
lotissements : Jackson Trails, Fairwinds, Barrhaven Mews, et Half Moon
Bay. L’aménagement de ces parcs sera conduit par Tartan (Jackson Trails
Developments) Ltd., Mattamy (Fairwinds) Limited, Mattamy (Strandherd Ltd.) et
Mattamy (Half Moon Bay) avant que la Ville ne se charge de leur construction.
Tous les lotissements ont été enregistrés et font
l’objet d’une condition exigeant du promoteur qu’il passe un accord relatif à
l’aménagement des parcs. Le présent rapport est destiné à autoriser le
personnel à passer des accords de crédit relatifs aux parcs avec les différents
bâtisseurs, et à fournir des moyens de remboursement à travers les crédits de
redevances d’aménagements.
Under the terms of the proposed parkland crediting agreement, the developers will be constructing parks in the respective subdivisions. The construction of the parkland is permitted, through the Policy For Front-Ending Agreements, approved by City Council and revised March 21, 2005. The Branch is increasingly being requested to allow and support the construction by builders of parkland within new greenfield subdivisions. Some builders perceive a strong benefit of park construction early in the development process as it can, among other things: often deliver a park to the City and community in a shorter timeframe than the current practice; can be used as a marketing tool during the home sales process; and can be less disruptive to a new community as the construction of homes and parkland would occur around the same time during the early phases of development.
In many instances the City receives added value, as builders at their option spend beyond what the standard development charge allocation for the park construction would provide.
CONSULTATION
Public consultation has occurred on a
project-by-project basis, where identified in each individual project. The impetus of this request and report was
through the initiative of both the development industry and the Branch. Consultation with the respective builders
has been ongoing throughout the process, and they are in agreement with the
recommendation.
FINANCIAL
IMPLICATIONS
The capital project
cost for the various agreements is estimated to be $834,603, including the
growth and non-growth shares. Subject
to Council approval, the developers are prepared to undertake the installation
of work to construct Active Neighbourhood Parks, identified in the 2004 Development
Charge Background Study, and will be repaid pursuant to the principles
established in the crediting policy.
The growth-portion, $717,758, will be paid back semi-annually to the
front-ender based the parkland funds collected from the designated areas that
are paid by developers on issuance of a building permit. The non-growth share, $116,845, will be
funded from the Cash-in-Lieu of Parkland Reserve Fund and will be reimbursed
based on the same timeframe as the development charge-crediting amount. Any costs exceeding the upset limit of $834,603
will be borne by the developers. A copy
of the framework for the various agreements, which consists of park amenities,
construction, and costs, has been attached to this report.
