BACKGROUND:
Past Town practice has dictated that Subdivision/Development Agreemenis, in their entircry,
�` with all rolated documentation, be forwarded to Council for consideretion prior ro being
r-
oxecuted. The package conteining all of the necessary documentation includes the Repart to
�� ` Council, the rclakd agreement, a by-law and location/site mapping, which on average, depending
� on the complcxity of ihe project, is opproximately 25 pnges.
�`•';,
�:;
�} ?. It should bo noted that the preprvation of the Subdivision/Development Agreements mcrcly
�+� �, conatitutes ihe implementation of policy decisions alrendy mude by the Council when pinnning
'���i`�; � approvals are granted. It is also at ihe plenning epproval stage thut Council is madc awarc of thc
✓.�� ,: particulaze of any unique wnditions applicnble to the developmcnt. Thereforc, thc existing
a`„ `�; prectice of forwarding the agreement to Cauncil for uuthorirntion, adds very little value to the
�� c�.°�trocesa, aad hes provrn to be onerous und timaconsuming for not only statT, but to the

Report to Council
1 O (� L64/98
May 28,1998
Subject: Subdivlsion/Development Agrecments and Amendments th:reto
- Blenket Aulhoriry to Execute Pagc 2
Also, in some instunces, once a SubdivisionlDevelopmcnt Agrecment hns been rcgistcred, ihe
agreement may require minor amendments rcsulting from a chnnge in circumstuncc such aa a
minor variance bcing granted to ailow for chunges in tha proposed housing mix or in the number
of units to be constructed within the plan/development. Present prncticc dicwtes thet
Subdivision/Development Agreements requiring minor amendmenls nrc nlso to be brought
before Council for approval. As these amendmenis primarily represent housekecping mattcrs
and are circulated to the npplicable staff dcpartments prior to fineli7ntion, this process has also
proven to be onerous and time-consuming.
It is thecefore bcing recommended thnt a by-lnw bc enacted in the fomi nttuched hercto,
authorizing the execution and registration of Subdivision Agreements, Deveiopment Agreements
and any emendmenis thereto by 1he Mnyor end the Toµn Clerk. These ugrecments will be
prepared in n fortn satisfactory to thc Town Solicitor nnd will incorpomte nll of the purticulars
necessary to sntisfy the Town's requirements for the upprovcd development propasuls.
