NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT CHARGE BY-LAW THE HALTON DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD MEETING TO BE HELD ON JUNE 21, 2006 AT 6:00 P.M. The Halton District School Board proposes to amend the 2004 Education Development Charge By-Law (the "2004 By-law") that the Board passed on June 9, 2004. The 2004 By-law came into effect on June 14, 2004 and was amended on June 22, 2005. The schedule of education development charges imposed by the by-law is as follows: Charge on residential development: Charge on non-residential development: $941.00 per dwelling unit $0.26 per square foot ($2.80 per square metre) of gross floor area KEEPING SENIORS INFORMED Our LivingWell Events are Open to the Public Special Events for June Halton Police Chorus June 7 at 7:30pm Billiards Champion Cliff Thorburn June 14 at 2:00pm Ballroom Dancing June 21 at 2:30pm Delmanor Glen Abbey is Oakville's premier retirement residence for active adults. We emphasize independence and individuality in a community environment that promotes an active mind and a sound body. In short, we believe in LivingWell and we'd like you to join us.All the events are free of charge. Just call Margaret Milley at 905-469-3232 to reserve your spot or to book a tour. TM The proposed amending by-law will increase the charge on residential development to $1,260 per dwelling unit and the charge on non-residential development to $0.35 per square foot ($3.77 per square metre) of gross floor area. The increase in the charge is due to an increase in the education land costs that the Board has incurred over those estimated when the 2004 By-law was passed. The 2004 By-law referred to above applies to all lands in the Region of Halton. Accordingly, a key map showing the location of the land subject to the said by-law is not provided as part of this notice. The Board will consider the proposed amending by-law at a public meeting to be held on June 21, 2006 at 6:00 P.M. in the Board Room of the Halton District School Board at 2050 Guelph Line, Burlington, Ontario. All interested persons are invited to attend the public meeting. The Boards would appreciate receiving written submissions one week prior to the public meeting, so they may be distributed to the trustees for their review prior to the meeting.
