Discussion: The purpose of this report is to obtain Council approval to enter into a sublicensing agreement with the Region of Durham to extend the delivery of the digital parcel mapping data to the City of Pickering for the next five years. The City is currently nearing the end of a five year sublicensing agreement with the Region of Durham for the supply of digital parcel mapping data, obtained from Teranet Inc.
Digital mapping of Pickering lands is a required and essential element of many City operations. The integrity of this digital mapping helps ensure the City will continue using up to date mapping data, and to make informed decisions where land-based data is required.
The Region of Durham has received a proposal from Teranet Inc., with whom it has an Ontario Parcel Master Agreement, to renew the contract for delivering digital parcel mapping data with
another 5-year term (to December 19, 2029) at a total gross cost of $903,120.00 or

$180,624.00 annually. The Region will continue to pay 50% of the fee, with the remaining
portion divided by the eight local municipalities in Durham, which is based on the percent
parcel count from August 2024, to determine the proportion of fees.
The Region confirmed that the products delivered through the sublicensing agreement will remain unchanged from the 2019 agreement. They include: the Ownership and Assessment Mapping; the Ownership Property Report, Easement Report, PIN-Plan Index; and the
Registered Plan Image Subscription. Further details are included in the attached letter from
Teranet Inc. (see Attachment 1).
The City’s cost for digital parcel mapping over the last five years of the present contract the Region of Durham has with Teranet Inc. totals $50,732.45, and it was collected from the City at a fixed annual cost of $10,146.49 (including applicable taxes). The proposed new contract with
the Region will supply the product to the City for the next five years at a net project cost
totaling $64,552.00, to be collected at a fixed net annual rate of $12,910.00.
It is recommended that Council approve entering into a sublicensing agreement with the Region of Durham to extend the delivery of digital parcel mapping data to the City of Pickering for a five-year period (December 19, 2024 to December 19, 2029), to be paid to the Region at
a fixed net annual rate noted in bold above, and that the appropriate officials of the City of
Pickering be authorized to give effect thereto.
