NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT CHARGE BY-LAW THE HALTON CATHOLIC DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD MEETING TO BE HELD ON JUNE 19, 2007 AT 8:00 P.M Board Room Halton Catholic District School Board 802 Drury Lane Burlington, Ontario The Halton Catholic 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 last amended June 20, 2006. The schedule of education development charges imposed by the by-law is as follows: Charge on residential development: Charge on non-residential development: $808.00 per dwelling unit $0.23 per square foot ($2.48 per square metre) of gross floor area presents The proposed amending by-law will increase the charge on residential development to $890.00 per dwelling unit and the charge on nonresidential development to $0.25 per square foot ($2.69 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 referenced 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 19, 2007 at 8:00 P.M. in the Board Room of the Halton Catholic District School Board at 802 Drury Lane, Burlington, Ontario. All interested persons are invited to attend the public meeting. The Board 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. Submissions and requests to address the Board as delegations should be submitted to the Halton Catholic District School Board, c/o Lou Piovesan, Director of Education, 802 Drury Lane, Burlington, Ontario, L7R 4L3, Tel: (905) 632-6300, Fax: (905) 333-4661.
