BEING A BY-LAW to prescribe a tariff of fees for the processing of applications made in respect of planning matters.

REFERENCE: Subsection 69 (1) of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter P. 13, as amended.

WHEREAS Subsection 69 (1) of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter P. 13, empowers the Council of a municipality to pass a by-law establishing a tariff of fees for the processing of applications made in respect of planning matters which tariff shall be designed to meet only the anticipated cost to the municipality or to a committee of adjustment.

AND WHEREAS the Corporation of the Township of Alfred and Plantagenet has passed By-law No. 2022-63 which prescribes a tariff of fees for the processing of certain applications made in respect of planning matters and the Council of the Township of Alfred and Plantagenet deems it necessary and expedient to revise the said By-law.

NOW THEREFORE the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Alfred and Plantagenet hereby enacts as follows:

  1. THAT a tariff of fees is hereby established for the processing of applications made in respect of planning matters as set out in the Schedule "A" hereto attached and forming part of this By-law.
  2. THAT an applicant shall be required to meet only the anticipated cost of the Corporation for the processing of an application which shall include, but shall not be limited to, surveyors fees, legal fees, consultant fees including administration staff time and other associated costs needed to carry out the review of the application in question in addition to all post notification as is required under the provisions of the Planning Act and its regulations thereto.
  3. THAT the applicant shall be required to enter into an agreement with the Corporation of the Township of Alfred and Plantagenet, as set out in Schedule "B" attached hereto and forming part of this By-law, in order that the said application may be proceeded with.
  4. THAT the Chief Administrative Officer and the Clerk are hereby authorized to execute the agreement herein referred to and more particularly identified as Schedule "B" attached hereto and forming part of this By-law.
  5. THAT notwithstanding the tariff of fees set out in Schedule "A" of this By-law, the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Alfred and Plantagenet may reduce the amount of, or waive the requirement for the payment of a fee in respect of the application where the Council is satisfied that it would be unreasonable to require payment in accordance with the tariff.
  6. THAT the processing of any application shall only begin once the applicable fees are paid in full.
  7. By-law No. 2022-63 is hereby repealed.
  8. This By-law shall come into force and effect on the date of its passing by the Corporation of the Township of Alfred and Plantagenet.

READ A FIRST, SECOND, AND THIRD TIME AND FINALLY PASSED THIS 19th DAY OF JANUARY 2021.
