Singleton Centre, 2050 Guelph Line, Burlington Take notice that the Halton District School Board (the "Board") proposes to amend the Halton District School Board Education Development Charges By-law, 2013 (the "2013 By-law"), which came into effect on June 24,2013. The schedule of education development charges now imposed by the 2013 By-law is as follows: No m a tte r where you are from, we're glad you re our neighbour. Charge on residential development: $3,714.00 per dwelling unit Charge on non-residential development: $0.93 per square foot ($10.01 per square metre) of gross floor area The proposed amending By-law will increase the charge on residential development to $4,364.00 per dwelling unit and the charge on non-residential development to $1.11 per square foot ($11.95 per square metre) of gross floor area.The increase is due to an increase in the education land costs incurred by the Board over those estimated when the 2013 By-law was passed. The 2013 By-law applies to all lands in the Regional Municipality of Halton. Accordingly, a key map showing the location of the land subject to the 2013 By-law is not provided as part of this notice.

The Board will also consider any written submissions. All submissions received in writing and those expressed at the public meeting will be considered prior to the enactment of an amendment to the 2013 By-law. At its meeting of June 21,2017, the Board will consider the adoption of a By-law that will amend the 2013 By-law. Should an amending By-law be passed on such date, collection of education development charges pursuant to the 2013 By-law, as amended, will commence on June 26,2017.
