DCCs are a restricted funding source as they can only be collected for certain types of projects, as set out in legislation, and can only be used for the projects included in the DCC Imposition Bylaw. An update is required to the DCCs Imposition Bylaw (Appendix A) to ensure the levies reflect updated infrastructure plans and current capital costs. The last DCC rate adjustment was in 2017 and was based on 2016 capital costs. When amending DCC rates there are many considerations which are described in the background of this report. As this is still considered a minor amendment not all assumptions can be revisited. A major DCC bylaw amendment will be required as infrastructure master plans and development assumptions are amended. For th is bylaw amendment, approval by the Inspector of Municipalities is required, as is public and stakeholder consultation. It should come as no surprise that the cost of land and construction in the lower mainland have increased significantly over the last six years. The development community is likely more attuned to this than most. There are limited options when it comes to funding this infrastructure. The DCC rate increase required to fund the infrastructure associated with this growth is in the range of 105% to 163%. RECOMMENDATION: That the Development Cost Charge Imposition Amending Bylaw be brought to Council for first reading. DISCUSSION: a) Background Context: What are Development Cost Charges {DCCs)? DCCs provide the authority to recover development-related costs for roads, sewers, drainage and water works as well as parkland acquisition and park development. DCCs allow the City to apportion costs of certain types of infrastructure among land developers. Council needs to ensure that in the process of developing DCC bylaws, they consider their responsibility of balancing the need for infrastructure and associated costs with the impacts that this may have on development. Doc#31O1365 Page 1 of 4 Local Governments are required to consider whether the proposed DCCs will: • be excessive in relation to the capital cost of prevailing standards of service; • deter development; • discourage the development of reasonably priced housing or reasonably priced serviced land; or • discourage development designed to result in low environmental impact. The rates charged (DCCs) are the outcome of complex models involving the planning and costing of future infrastructure projects, and projecting of future development activity. The assumptions used in these models are amended to reflect changes in the underlying plans and updated information. Why is a bylaw update required? Maple Ridge is a growing City and depends on DCCs to fund some of the infrastructure associated with growth. DCCs are typically the largest source of funding in the Capital Program. It is for this reason, that the DCCs are kept up to date with current costs and infrastructure plans. The cost of land purchases has increased significantly over the last few years and if we are to continue to purchase the land planned then we need to increase the DCCs or look to further supplement development through other sources such as Property Taxes. The bylaw update process. The DCC Imposition Amending Bylaw will first be taken to Council for First reading and to stakeholders for feedback. Input and feedback will be sought through the developer's forum, a newspaper ad and through the website and social media. Background material including a complete listing of capital projects, staff reports and a link to the Council presentation will be provided on our website for those that wish to review the material prior to providing feedback. Feedback will be presented to Council prior to considering Second and Third readings of the Bylaw. The Bylaw and supporting documentation are then sent to the Ministry for review and approval. Once approval is provided the Bylaw can be adopted. Once the DCC Amending Bylaw is adopted by Council, the DCCs are effective for new applications. Any precursor applications which are instream on the date the Bylaw is adopted will pay the rate in the existing bylaw, if issued within 12 months from the date the Bylaw is adopted. Precursor applications, as defined in S. 568 of the Local Government Act, must be in a form satisfactory to the local government officer and align with development approval procedures. Future DCC Imposition Bylaw amendments Rates are permitted to be adjusted as often as annually, without Ministry approval as long as the rate increases are less than the Vancouver Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the bylaw was approved by the Ministry within the last four years. If rate increases are in excess of the CPI, a minor bylaw amendment should still occur. It would simply take a bit longer as the approval process is more involved. Unsecured grants are not permitted to be considered in funding DCC projects. If significant grants are received for projects, such as the 240 Street Bridge or Abernethy Corridor, then DCCs could be reduced relatively quickly with the Ministry expediting their approval process. Doc#3101365 Page 2 of 4 How do we compare? Maple Ridge DCCs, both current and proposed, are compared to other local municipalities in Appendix B, to provide some context of our rates compared to others and the impact of the proposed rate increases have on our relative ranking. Each community's infrastructure needs, growth assumptions and distribution of costs both through different development types as well as portions of capital costs covered through non-DCC sources will vary. Communities with similar profiles will often have very different rates. What is important is that the projects included in the DCC Bylaw are based on the prevailing standards of services and the cost distribution is fair and equitable. b) Desired Outcome: DCC's that align with the City's plans for development and infrastructure, are certain, fair and equitable and to the extent possible that the benefiter pays. c) Business Plan/Financial Implications The long-term Capital Program and Financial Plan Bylaw were updated to reflect current costs, future infrastructure needs and are in alignment with the calculations in the draft DCC Imposition Amending Bylaw. d) Alternatives 1. Delay Increase With a rate increase of this magnitude, it is likely that the development community would be interested in a delay in the effective date of the Bylaw and/or a phased- in rate increase. This would ensure that their current projects profitability is not impacted or are less impacted by the rate increases. Council must consider what recent market appreciation has been as well as other cost drivers such as inflation, labour shortages, supply chain delays all of which may impact the development proformas. If a phased-in charge is considered, the subsidy of the phase-in would be born by general taxpayers having existing property owners paying for a larger amount of the cost of infrastructure associated with growth, either through increased property taxes or spending of accumulated surplus that would otherwise be spent on other capital needs. 2. Area Specific DCC Another option is to begin work on creating an additional Area DCC for an area that generates more infrastructure costs to develop than others. The extension of Abernethy from 240 to 256 Street, at an estimated cost of approximately $50 million, to better serve the 256 Street industrial lands could be considered outside of the Citywide DCC rate. If this project was removed from the Citywide DCC Amending Bylaw currently being drafted, the increase in rates would be reduced by approximately one third. Such a change would require an additional DCC Bylaw and background reports to ensure development assumptions and costs are reasonable. This would serve to capture a portion of the land lift or value generated by creating better access. This may be coupled with borrowing to expediate value increases, industrial development and associated jobs created. This seems to align with Council's Strategic priority of economic development. This approach is likely the one that will be recommended with the Thornhill Area, once plans are better known on development potential and infrastructure servicing costs. Doc#3101365 Page3 of 4 CONCLUSION: DCCs are one of the key funding sources to fund infrastructure required due to new development or growth. Given the market appreciation in the lower mainland and costs of construction, an update to the DCC Imposition Amending Bylaw is required.
