NOTICE OF STATUTORY PUBLIC MEETING
REGARDING DEVELOPMENT CHARGES
Take notice that Township of Uxbridge Council is holding a public meeting on March 25th, 2024 at 11:30 AM to discuss proposed development charge rates as well as the policies that will be applied throughout the Township. Council will be considering the approval of an updated development charges by-law on a date following this public meeting.
Development charges are fees on new developments that fund growth-related costs to a municipality which are governed by the Development Charges Act, 1997. The Development Charges Background Study relates to the provision of DC eligible Services which includes Library Services, Fire and Rescue, Parks and Recreation, Services Related to a Highway: Public Works and Fleet, Services Related to a Highway: Roads and Related, and Storm Water Drainage and Control Services. The DC Background Study also includes Development-Related Studies for consideration in the DC by-law but the inclusion of studies would be subject to future legislative changes to the DCA.
The public meeting is an opportunity for the public to review and provide comments on the Development Charges Background Study and the proposed Development Charges By-law(s), as required under The Development Charges Act, 1997.
