DC
Funded Infrastructure
The Development Finance Group DABU administers claims and
reimbursements for Development Charge funded works in accordance with Schedule 7
of the DC By-law. A Procedural Manual was prepared as an internal
training document for City Staff to bring a level of consistency to
administrative decisions and improve understanding around the implementation of
Schedule 7. The Procedure Manual is available for review through this
online resource but is intended for use by City Staff. All inquiries
regarding Schedule 7 of the DC By-law by a third party should directed through
the Development Finance Group.
Development Finance leads the preparation of Development
Charge Background Studies which are required under the DC Act no less than every
five years. The last full Development Charges Background Study was
completed in 2009 and the current DC By-law came into effect on August 4, 2009.
The link below provides important background information and key documents
involved in creating the 2009 Development Charges Background Study and DC
