Region of Waterloo Official Plan
#30
Waterloo Region Home Builders Association (WRHBA) is challenging the development charges by-law:
http://calendar.regionofwaterloo.ca/Coun...df#page=42

" The Region’s RDC By-law is in full force and effect including the new rates unless and until the OMB orders otherwise. Staff believe the calculations that support the by-law have been
prepared in accordance with the legislation."

The Waterloo Region Home Builders’ Association Appeal
On December 21, 2016, the Region received a Notice of Appeal from the Waterloo Region Home Builders’ Association, a copy of which is attached as Appendix A to this Report.
The grounds of the appeal are summarized as follows:
 The level of detail provided relating to the Asset Management Plan for Transit Services and Waste Management Services do not meet the requirements of the Development Charges Act
 The allocation of benefit to existing for Transit Services is not fair and reasonable
 The post period benefit for Transit is not correct
 The Cities-only Transit development charge subsidizes development in the Townships
 Some light rail transit capital costs and waste management contract costs should not be included in the calculation

The deadline to file an appeal was January 9, 2017 pursuant to the Development Charges Act. There were no further appeals of the Amending By-law.



If anyone cares to summarize the legalese the full text of the notice of appeal is found on page 45:

Everyone move to the back of the bus and we all get home faster.
