Fees & Assessments

The following fees are payable at the time of entering into a Servicing Agreement.

Inspection fees are to be paid to the City for inspecting and approving various municipal improvements. The current rate for residential developments is $4,200/hectare (2012) with a minimum value of 3.0 hectares.

Permanent Area Contributions and Expansion Assessments

Permanent area contributions (PACs) are payments for storm and sanitary trunk sewers, storm water management facilities, and other cost-sharable drainage improvements within predefined drainage basins (land areas). They are based on the area of development or subdivision.

For a detailed explanation of how PACs are calculated and determined, see Permanent Area Contributions.

An expansion assessment charge will be applied to all new land developments that did not have an approved neighbourhood structure plan on January 1, 1998, that identified a downstream receiving system. For more information on how expansion assessments are calculated, see Expansion Assessments.
