Executive Summary: This report contains a summary of the 2017 Current and
Capital Budgets and a discussion of the Recommendations contained in this report.
Financial Implications: The 2017 Current and Capital Budgets, if adopted as
amended, will result in a property tax levy increase of 2.69% (City Share Only) over last
year which translates into a 0.81% increase in the City's share of the total property tax
bill.
This increase, when combined with the Region and the School Boards increase, results
in an average increase of 1.80% on the total property tax bill. The above excludes any
property tax shifts due to reassessment and potential Provincial tax policy changes. Any
changes as a result of Provincial tax policy changes will be adjusted in the calculation of
the final tax rates.
Discussion: The Recommendations put forth are those necessary to adopt and
provide authority and direction for the 2017 Current and Capital Budgets for the City of
Pickering.
Explanation of Key Recommendations
Optional Financing Strategy to Reduce Possible Senior Government Grant funding
Shortfall — Recommendation 2 j) and k)
The following two capital projects include a senior government grant funding component:
A Frenchman's Bay West Park Master Plan (Phase 1)
•
Report FIN 04-17 February 27, 2017
Subject: 2017 Current and Capital Budget Page 10
B Marksbury Road Outfall
Recommendations 2 j) and k), provide the Treasurer the flexibility to finance any
government grant shortfall by using various funding sources. It is staff's intent to apply
for all available Senior Government grant funding as it relates to these two projects,
however, recommendations 2 j) and k), ensure that these critical projects will proceed
whether the City receives grant funding or not.
Financing of Shortfall in the Development Charges Operational Services Reserve
Fund — Recommendation 2 m)
The Clements Road Operations Centre construction cost is estimated to be $23.6 million
of which $9.2 million is to be funded from the Development Charges Operations Reserve
Fund. The current estimated balance for this DC component is $210,000 and therefore
the DC Reserve Fund will have to borrow funds externally. Many municipalities such as
Ottawa, York Region and Milton have been employing this financing strategy. The
principal and related interest costs associated with this debt financing strategy will be
included in the DC rates.
Park Crescent Road — Recommendation 2 n)
Phase 1 of the Park Crescent road reconstruction capital project (Sandcastle Court to
Cliffview Road) encountered some unforeseen utility work that was required to complete
the project. This utility work included the relocation of a gas main that was in conflict with
the new storm sewer installation and hydro pole adjustments that were not anticipated at
the time of design. This additional expenditure, not to exceed $125,900, will be offset by
the savings from the Phase 2 Park Crescent capital project (Cliffview Road to the
terminus).
Legacy Project Single Source — Recommendation 13 c)
The Biglieri Group were instrumental in developing the vision for the City Centre project
with City staff, and are familiar with City requirements and objectives. Due to their
comprehensive knowledge of the concept, this firm has the requisite experience to provide
guidance and direction for the development of the Request for Proposal. They also have
a wide range of business relationships that have extensive experience in large complex
projects such as this that the City is able to leverage for its benefit.
Increase in User Fees: Wrecking Yard License Fee — Recommendation 15
At the Executive Budget Meeting of February 16th, there was request for staff to review
the business license fee for Wrecking Yards. Staff have undertaken a review of this
license fee taking into consideration the limits prescribed under the Municipal Act. At this
current time, staff are recommending that this fee be increased from $20 to $2,500. A
further review of this fee will be undertaken as part of the 2018 budget process.
Report FIN 04-17 February 27, 2017
Subject: 2017 Current and Capital Budget Page 11
2018 Budget Guidelines — Recommendation 22
Many municipalities develop budget guidelines for the following year's budget while
reviewing the current draft budget. The review by Council of the current year's budget
• usually helps frame the following year's budget development and preliminary
establishment of budget goals and objectives. Recommendations 22 states that the
budget be developed in the following expenditure priority sequence: maintain existing
infrastructure and service levels.
If Council adopts these recommendations, the 2018 budget levy report would be
developed with these budget principles. Staff would incorporate these budget principles
in the development of the 2018 budget that usually starts around June of each year.
These principles would guide the development of the capital and current budget projects.
These recommendations will assist the City in meeting its overall objectives in a
financially sustainable manner.
Grant Policy Changes - Recommendation 23
Staff are proposing a few minor changes to the City's grant policy. Staff are requesting
that the City be notified in advance of any festival or celebration events that are either
partially or fully sponsored by the City. With the notification, staff can assist with marketing
of the event via the website or other electronic media. In addition, when the grant group
provides a date — it provides greater certainty that the event will take place. The grant
application deadline date for 2018 budget cycle will be September 29, 2017. The grant
application procedure will be slightly revised whereby if a handwritten application is legible,
the grant group will be required to submit a "typed" application. Library staff have
confirmed that they have the resources and staff to assist any group regarding their
application.
Fence Reserve — Recommendation 27 a)
City staff brought forward a report last May (ENG 08-16), regarding the "Repair &
Maintenance of Municipal Fences". This report estimated that there are approximately 49
kilometers of fencing adjacent to City roads and property (parks and walkways) with an
estimated replacement value of $8.43 million. From a financial perspective, the report
identified the need for a "Fence Levy" and recommended that the City budget $240,000 in
2017. The 2017 budget provides $150,000 for fence funding with the long term strategy
of increasing this amount over time. The 2017 capital budget does not include any funding
for fences, instead the strategy is to rely on previously approved unspent capital budget
dollars. By adopting a fence levy strategy, Council can provide a dedicated source of funds
to address future years' cost pressures as it relates the need to invest in fences.
Minor Buildings Replacement Reserve — Recommendation 27 c)
There is a need for the City to consider replacing its smaller and older buildings which are
at the end of their useful life. One such facility is the Museum Administration Building
which Community Services Department staff are recommending be replaced with a more
functional and efficient office administration facility. The existing Administration Building
Report FIN 04-17 February 27, 2017
Subject: 2017 Current and Capital Budget Page 12
is an old repurposed school shed from 1867 which had some additions in the late 1970's
and early 1980's. The building functions as the main public entrance at the Pickering
Museum Village with staff offices, gift shop, reception counter and small exhibit space
located on the 1st floor and a small conservation lab and storage area on the 2nd floor. The
facility currently presents ongoing maintenance and Health & Safety issues that would be
costly to rectify. An investment in a new facility would be beneficial to the community and
fiscally responsible and includes the following benefits:
• Resolve ongoing issues regarding facility maintenance, repairs, and energy
inefficiencies;
• Provide properly appointed office spaces for staff to work;
• Provide adequate exhibit and reception space to serve over 12,000 visitors per year;
and,
• Provide a temperature controlled environment for many of the Museum's artefacts (a
Conservation Standard for Community Museums as set out by the Province of
Ontario).
New facilities present the City with the opportunity to build for our current needs and to
minimize maintenance, repair and replacement costs due to the fact, new major facility
components are energy efficient and under warranty.
Seaton Financial Impact Agreement (FIA) Reserve — Recommendation 27 d)
The Financial Impacts Agreement (FIA) is a contract among the City, the Province and
the landowners within the Seaton Development Area. The FIA deals with the major
financial aspects of the development of Seaton through to the year 2031. The FIA
contains provisions regarding development charges to be paid by the Seaton landowners
and also provides for certain voluntary financial contributions to be made by the
landowners to the City. The voluntary financial contributions made by the Seaton
landowners will be captured by the Seaton FIA Reserve and these funds will be used to
offset the capital costs associated with Seaton. Attachment 4 provides a one page
summary of the additional FIA fees. The 2017 Capital Budget plan draws $24,000 from
this reserve to fund the Village Green located in the Mattamy Taunton Road subdivision.
Seaton Infrastructure Reserve Fund — Recommendation 28
The Official Plan for Seaton requires that every road in Seaton have a sidewalk on each
side. However, the two sidewalk requirement creates problems as it relates to vehicle
parking. Some Seaton Landowners have proposed a model of only one sidewalk per
street and that the corresponding savings of not installing two sidewalks be equally
shared between the City and the landowner. The cost savings attributable to the one
sidewalk solution will be transferred to the reserve fund to be used to offset direct capital
project costs located in Seaton. Recommendation 28 also requires Council to pass the
corresponding Reserve Fund By-law (Attachment 3). The 2017 Capital Budget plan
Report FIN 04-17 February 27, 2017
Subject: 2017 Current and Capital Budget Page 13
•
draws $60,000 from this reserve fund to finance the Village Green located in the
Mattamy Taunton Road subdivision.
Proposed Changes to the Vacancy Rebate Program — Recommendation 29
The Province recently announced "New Municipal Flexibility" to the vacancy rebate
program. (The vacancy rebate program provides property tax rebate for those
commercial and industrial properties that are vacant for 90 consecutive days.) The 2017
budget provision for vacancy rebates is $150,000. If the program's scope is decreased
or if the program is cancelled, Recommendation 29 provides the Treasurer the authority
to transfer surplus funds to the Roads and Bridges Reserve Fund
2017 Current Budget
During the budget discussions last spring, staff presented a proposed 2017 base
services budget levy increase in the range of 2.00% to 3.00%. This forecast was based
on information available at that time and to continue current City service levels.
At the February 16th Executive (Budget) Committee meeting, Council was presented with
a proposed budget levy increase of 2.69%, which was accepted by the Executive
Committee. Based on an average assessment of$423,150, the 2.69% increase
(excluding the impact of reassessment) will result in an average increase of
approximately $40.40 per year or 78 cents per week for the average residential dwelling
in Pickering. Unlike goods purchased by consumers where there is a tangible product
that is received each time there is a transaction, many City services provided to residents
such as park or road maintenance are not paid for as the services are used or received.
For this reason, many residents, may not be aware of the costs associated with the vast

Tax Increase Summary
The 2.69% City share tax increase translates into an increase of .81% on the total
residential tax bill. The 2.69% levy increase compares favourably to other municipalities,
especially when one considers that Pickering has had the lowest tax rate among its
Durham Region Lakeshore neighbours for over nineteen years(1998 up to 2016).
Adding the Region's (1.80%) tax increase and Pickering's (2.69%) and the School
Board's estimated 0% increase, the total increase for the average residential ratepayer
will be approximately 1.80%. The chart below provides a property tax summary of the
last few years. The proposed 1.80% overall increase this year falls within the mid-range
of the last six years.

Increase (Over 2016) $28.64 $38.19 $47.73
This is the first year of the Province's four year reassessment cycle. Assessment-related
increases are phased-in over four years and assessment-related decreases are
implemented immediately. The City does not receive any additional revenue as a result
of reassessment. The corresponding property tax rates are adjusted for the increase in
reassessment values to create an overall property tax neutral position on a total property
class basis. Put another way, the City does not raise additional taxation revenue due to
reassessment. Inevitably, when there is an overall change in assessment values, there is
shifting of the property tax burden among property classes and as well among individual
property owners within each property class.
The impact on the individual homeowner is based on their specific reassessment
increase, relative to the City-wide average of 6.78%.

Risk Analysis
At its core, the municipal budget is a projection of inflows and outflows for the coming
year. Due to the timing of the budget preparation and approval, many of these
projections need to be made with less than perfect information. In addition, these
projections need to consider future events and circumstances that are often beyond the
City's control. Therefore, as with any budget, there are risk factors associated with the
draft 2017 City of Pickering budget being presented to Council. The following is a list of
some of the most important risks and related mitigating measures.
A Fuel costs have been volatile over the last few years. The 2017 fuel budget includes
a small increase ($4,000). While fuel prices have fallen from their all-time high, there
remains a risk that prices could increase in 2017 to their 2014 levels. Furthermore,
there is always a risk that a global crisis may increase fuel costs in the future. The
possibility of fuel prices being volatile during 2017 is high and the cost risk will be
accommodated through the General Government contingency account.
B During the last few years, there has been no predictable weather pattern for winter
control activity/costs. The 2014 and the first half of the 2015 winter season was one
of the worst on record. The 2017 winter control budget is based on December and the
first three weeks of January and therefore, staff have left the Winter Control budget at
its 2016 funding level. If the current winter weather pattern changes, any additional
cost pressures would be absorbed either through the Winter Control Reserve
($700,000) or through the General Government contingency account.
C Utility costs continue to increase for the City in excess of the inflation rate and or the
levy increase. The largest increase is for hydro with the budget being increased by
$454,000. Budgeting for utilities costs is based on prior years' consumption and
known utility rate increases. The unknown factor is the actual use, as this component
varies each year. The 2016 capital budget includes funding for the City streetlights to
be converted to LED's. Phase 1 of the project has been completed (detailed study
and design) and the staff are now moving to Phase 2 — selection of vender and
installation. The project's plan is to have all of the City street lights converted to LED
by December 31, 2017 and therefore, the energy and maintenance savings would be
reflected in the 2018 budget.
Report FIN 04-17 February 27, 2017
Subject: 2017 Current and Capital Budget Page 17
D The City is able to retain the education share of the Payment-in-Lieu (PIL) property
taxes for federal, provincial and regional properties located in the City. The largest
properties are: OPG nuclear plant, Hydro One transformer station and the water
pollution control plant. The OPG Nuclear plant assessment for 2017 is lower than its
2016, and this lower assessment is of concern due to the fact most properties'
assessment values increased with the change in the reassessment cycle. The
Province has not yet released 2017 education rates and therefore, there is a
possibility that the PIL revenue may not reach its 2017 budget target. Any significant
revenue loss will be adjusted through the 2017 property tax rate report.
E Budgets prepared early in the year are based on information that was available in
December of last year. This has the potential to generate greater budget variances
that might otherwise be experienced. In addition, the two senior levels of government
(Federal and Provincial) have not yet released their 2017 budgets. There is a
possibility of a positive or negative impact on the City based on the budget actions of
the senior levels of government.
F The 2017 capital budget includes funding for the construction of the Clements Road
Operations Centre. The construction cost for this project is currently projected to be
$23.6 million. (This cost excludes land cost and project design management fees of
$1.4 million that was budgeted in 2016). The new Operations Centre has two major
risks from a financial perspective:
• The project has not been tendered and there is a risk that the final accepted
contractor price may be higher or that there may be the need for additional change
orders during construction that will increase the project's cost.
• One component of the financing strategy is based on the successful sale of City
owned land located on Brock Road south of Dersan Street. If the revenue target
isn't met, the City will have a funding shortfall. If the land sales exceed the
revenue target, the additional funds will be transferred to the Operations Centre
Reserve to address any possible construction cost pressures.
To address either situation of higher project costs or revenue shortfall, the funding
strategy is to rely on the Rate Stabilization Reserve.
2017 Challenges and Opportunities
Outstanding Assessment Appeals
There is currently $3.1 billion in outstanding assessment appeals for the commercial
and industrial property tax class for the City. These are multi-year appeals that range
from 2008 up to 2016. These appeals are complex and involve commercial "chain
stores" where the property owner has many locations throughout Ontario. The chain
store appeals include popular commercial retailers such as Loblaws, LCBO, Canadian
Tire and Home Depot. Unfortunately, the majority of these appeals were not resolved in
2016. Therefore, these appeals are automatically deemed outstanding for the 2017
taxation year. Every year these appeals remain outstanding, the settlement cost
Report FIN 04-17 February 27, 2017
Subject: 2017 Current and Capital Budget Page 18
increases, creating additional financial risk to the Corporation. If you assume a 10%
reduction in assessment value for each appeal, the City share is roughly estimated to be
as high as $980,000 for the 2016 and prior years plus an additional $250,000 for 2017.
It should be noted that based on 2016 appeal settlements, there were some assessment
reductions in the range of 15% or more. For the last few years, staff have budgeted for
the outstanding commercial and industrial appeals and any funds remaining from these
prior years has accrued to fund anticipated settlements in 2017. If the budget provisions
are insufficient to fund the reductions, the City would draw on the Assessment Appeal
reserve to fund any shortfall. It is our understanding that the Assessment Review Board
(ARB) has stated that its goal this year is to clear up the large backlog of appeals in
2017. If the ARB is successful in clearing the backlog, there would be a corresponding
decrease in the assessment base that would directly impact the assessment growth for
2018.
Legacy Project— Phase 1 Funding
The 2017 draft budget, includes funding in the amount of$100,000 in the General
Government— Consulting account. These funds are to be used to develop the financial
framework and RFP related to a multi-use facility located beside the central library. The
multi-use facility could possibly include a library expansion, new seniors centre, new
youth centre, gym and arts centre. The rationale for the multi-use facility is to achieve
economies of scale as it relates to construction and operational costs.
2017 User Fees and Charges Schedule
Every year, the City reviews its user fees, mainly for various recreational and cultural
programs, to partially reflect the cost of delivering these programs. Council passed
Resolution # 149/03 confirming the City's existing user fees through a specific by-law.
This By-law has been updated as part of each year's budget process. Other fees have
been introduced to address industry trends and their associated costs.
The basic theory of user fees is to recover the cost of a service from an individual that is
directly benefitting from that service. User fees promote efficient allocation of municipal
resources because direct benefit recipients pay for the service they consume. The City of
Toronto has adopted the philosophy that "it should charge full cost, without subsidy, for
any service that delivers a direct benefit to individuals". If user fees don't recover the full
cost of providing the service, by default, the property tax payer indirectly subsidizes the
user.
Debt Financing of Capital Projects
The 2017 Capital Budget uses a total of $6.1 million of internal and external debt to
finance various projects. The debt charges associated with this project will be funded
through the property tax base. However, it should be noted that the Development
Charges Operations Centre Reserve Fund will have to borrow approximately $9.2 million
to meet the funding requirements for the new operations centre located on Clements
Road.

The Current budget book section (Appendix A) includes a summary of the outstanding
debt as of December 31, 2016. A high level summary of the City's debt is presented
below:

. Total Commitments - 2016 $32.0
Add: 2017 New Debt 15.3
Total Debt Commitments $47.5
As stated above, the major increase in 2017 debt commitments is due to the requirement
for the Development Charges Operations Centre Reserve Fund having to borrow funds.
Many municipalities such as Brampton and Milton have been employing this financing
strategy. This financial strategy will also be used for the construction of the Seaton Fire
Hall. The Development Charges Fire Services Reserve Fund will have to borrow
approximately $5.0 million to meet the project funding requirements. The principal and
interest costs associated with this debt financing strategy will be eligible for inclusion in
future DC "rates.

Council has the ability to control the increase of future debt charges by either deferring
debt financed projects or trying to reduce a project's size. In addition, senior level
government grant announcements may also have an impact on the rise and slope of the
debt forecast line.
Debt Level and Provincial Guidelines
Each year, the Province calculates the City's Annual Debt Repayment Limit or ARL. The
Province stipulates that a municipality may not commit more than 25% of its total own-
purpose revenues to service debt and or other long term obligations such as capital
leases. 25% of the Net Revenues equates to $17.1 million and is based on the 2015
Financial Information Return or FIR as reported to the Province. The Provincially issued
document is included as Attachment 1. The City's total debt charges for 2017 is $5.3
million. Staff are not recommending that the City issue debt up to the Provincial limit.
In 2013, Council adopted a higher standard where the City cap is set at 15% of the total
taxation revenue. The debt capacity used for 2017 is estimated to be around 7.56%
which is below the 15% cap and well below the 25% Provincial limit. Chart Three
provides a summary of the City's projected debt charges in relation to the City's 15% cap
rule.

Report FIN 04-17 February 27, 2017
Subject: 2017 Current and Capital Budget Page 21
As the above chart indicates, for 2017, the City is well below the 15% debt target limit.
However, future debt projections based on the multi year capital forecast indicate that the
City will have some fiscal challenges in the next few years. Council can control the slope
of the line by deferring projects and or increase funding through special levies. In
addition, senior government grant funding can also have a major impact on the amount
of debt financing in the future. As shown above, the City is well below its 15% cap
guideline.
Borrowing or debt financing should not be viewed as a negative. The proper use of debt
is an essential component of prudent fiscal strategy. The use of debt promotes
intergenerational equity. By borrowing, Pickering can distribute the cost of the asset over
the lifetime of the asset. Pickering should take advantage of current low interest rates
but balance its use so that the City does not overextend itself beyond the 15% cap.
2017 Tax Rates
As has been the case for the last few years, the 2017 Property Tax rates and
corresponding levy By-law will be presented to Council after the City has received the
education tax rates from the Province.
2017 Capital Budget
This year, the draft Capital Budget totals, $45.1 million, which includes $23.6 million for
the new Operations Centre. The debt financed capital projects are listed below.
