EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Land Severance Application LD 08/01 was submitted to the Region of Durham Land Division Committee proposing the creation ,o_f one new residential build!ing lot, fronting onto Pine Grove Avenue, from the applicant s total land holdings. This application was tabled by the Land Division Committee at their January 15, 2001 meeting, :at the request of the o ~. .... ~ ..... , r~.,~rtment_ to allow the applicant time to obtain permission Report to Council PD 05-01 Date: January 26, 2001 Subject: Request for Council's Permission to Develop by Land Severance Page 2 It is considered appropriate to allow one new lot to be created from the subject property through the land severance process. The applicant's proposed severance will not prejudice the viability of future development on the subject lands. The subject property is zoned to permit the lot sizes proposed by the applicant, and only one new lot would be created. Both the proposed severed and retained lot would front onto Pine Grove Avenue. This street is built to full urban standards and is pre-serviced to support additional development. All requirements of the City can be appropriately addressed as conditions of severance approval. BACKGROUND: The applicant submitted Land Severance Application LD 08/01 to the Region of Durham Land Division Committee, proposing the creation of one new residential building lot from the total land holdings. A property location map is included as Attachment #1 to this Report. The proposed severed lot would provide approximately 47.6 metres of lot frontage on Pine Grove Avenue, and an area of 0.89 hectares. The proposed retained parcel would provide approximately 30.48 metres of lot frontage on Pine Grove Avenue, would be approximately 0.18 hectares in area, and would support one detached dwelling. A site plan illustrating the applicant's proposed severance is included as Attachment #2 to this Report. Land Severance Application LD 08/01 was tabled by the Durham RegiOn Land Division Committee at their January 15, 2001 meeting, at the request of the Planning & Development Department, to allow the applicant time to obtain permission from City Council to develop the subject lands through the land severance process rather than by draft plan of subdivision. The application was tabled to the March 19, 2001 Land Division Committee meeting. Section 15.25(b) of Pickering's Official Plan requires any ownership of land that is capable of being divided into more than three additional lots to be developed by a plan of subdivision, except where it is demonstrated to Council's satisfaction that a plan of subdivision is neither appropriate nor necessary. Where these circumstances exist, Council may authorize the development to proceed by land severance. The subject lands are capable of being divided into more than three additional lots, and therefore permission is required from Council to allow any development of these lands to proceed through the land severance process. The Picketing Official Plan designates the subject lands as being within an "Urban Residential - Low Density Area" in the Highbush Neighbourhood. As outlined in specific neighbourhood policies for the Highbush area, Council shall, in established residential areas, encourage, and where possible, require development to be compatible with the character of existing development; and, through the review of development proposals and in consultation with landowners and surrounding residents, endeavour to provide a new local road connection between Woodview Avenue and Pine Grove Avenue. Through the review of the associated Land Division Application (LD 08/01) and a previous application submitted on the northerly abutting lands, it was determined that the property subject of this report is not the de,qirecl 1,,,-or;,.,. *'^~ ,t. ..... Report to Council PD 05-01 Date: January 26, 2001 Subject: Request for Council's Permission to Develop by Land Severance Page 3 The resultant severed parcel is configured to accommodate future lotting along Pine Grove Avenue and the future extension of Rockwood Drive. Pine Grove Avenue is an existing road that is built to full urban standards and is pre-serviced to support additional development along it. In order to facilitate further division of the severed lands, the north-south extension of Rockwood Drive and servicing would be required. The applicant has p~ovided a conceptual lotting plan that illustrates how the configuration of the proposed severed lot will not preclude the extension of Rockwood Drive. The subject lands are currently zoned "R4" - Detached Dwelling Zone, by Zoning By-law 3036, as amended. Both the proposed severed and retained parcels would Comply with the minimum lot area and lot frontage requirements of the Zoning By-law. The majority of infill development that has occurred along the east side of Pine Grove Avenue has been developed through the land severance process. The interests cf the City have been appropriately addressed and protected in that infill through conditions of land severance approval for development along Pine Grove Avenue, and would continue to be protected and accommodated through conditionS of approval imposed through Land Severance Application LD 08/01.

That Council endorse report OES 002-01 and 2. Staff facilitate the introduction of a community garden in the Petticoat Creek valley adjacent to East Woodlands Park. ORIGIN: Request from the West Picketing Community Garden Committee AUTHORITY: Municipal Act FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: N/A EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The West Picketing Community Garden Committee initiated the introduction of a community garden through discussion with the Operations & Emergency Services Department. Since that initial contact continued discussions has resulted in the ability to implement a pilot project with the group for a Community Garden in Picketing. Report to Council OES OO2-01 Subject: Community Gardens Date: February 1, 2001 Page 2 009 Attached is a submission from the Committee outlining the various aspects of this Pilot Project. It should be noted that the City will incur no capital costs for this initiative and our role will be as a resource for information and facilitation of some implementation issues. The Operations & Emergency Services Department supports this endeavour as a beneficial initiative for the people of Picketing and will require a report from the Committee after one year of operation as to the effectiveness of the project. ATTACHMENTS: Proposal from the West Picketing Community Garden Committee Location Map Prepared Byy L4)er~B _un~sm~ -~ Director~ns & Emergen~'Se~ices EB:md Attachments Copy: Chief Administrative Officer Division Head, Municipal Property & Engineering Recommended for the consideration of Pickering City Council J. Quinn, 010 A'R'ACHHENT# O ! TO It, EPOP, T#( Proposal for a WEST PICKERING COMMUNITY GARDEN 1) Project Description The West Pickering Community Garden Committee is planning to use a piece of land approximately 6,000 square feet for 30-35 garden plots to grow mostly vegetables and herbs organically. These plots will range in size from 4' x 9' to 4' x 30'. (See attached Appendix I: Layout for Community Garden for a preliminary draft of the garden design.) As well, the Committee proposes that aPproximately six raised plots be created on the upper portion of the new Western library property for use by those gardeners who have difficulty working at ground level. This may include those in wheelchairs or with back ailments. 2) Purpose of Community Gardens, Community gardens offer people who have no access to land a chance to grow their own vegetables and herbs. Community gardens also provide an opportunity J.'or people of all ages to learn about natural cycles, organic gardening techniques and more. Community gardens provide many ways for people to get to know each other and share things like tools, recipes and gardening tips. There are many other proven health and environmental benefits of community gardening. Commtmity gardens are a good way to build that ever- elusive feeling of belonging to a "community". 3) Sponsor The sponsoring agency is the Social Development Council of Ajax-Picketing, which has offered its charitable status to the project. This means that donors to the community garden will receive tax deductions for the value of their contributions. The Council will also offer any needed advice on writing proposals to obtain grant money'. The Social Development Council recognizes the benefits of this project which they have stated in their letter of support: "Aside from complementing both the principles of our Childhood Nutrition Project, and the recommendations of our Commumty. Wellness Survey, the establishment of an organic garden will not only provide healthy food but will also benefit the food bank, and the community generally by leading by example." 4) Organizational Structure: The West Pickering Community Garqen Committee This Committee has been meeting monthly since November 1999. It is :made up of members and Board members of Rougemount Housing Co-op, a meml~r of Canadian Organic Growers - Durham Chapter, two members of Pickering Horti'cultural Society and a resident of the local community. Because the Priority group for this project is Apartment dwellers, the Committee has recognized the importance of involving them in decisions. The Committee is also aware of the importance of involving as many stakeholders as possible and is recruiting more members from such groups as the Pickering Food Bank, Pickering Naturalists, and Sarah McDonald's Place (a local apartment building). ATTACHMENT :? .0/.. TC ~,.EPORT # 6_~-..~ OD -0 I t::).q C---~: 011 After the garden is established, this Committee will evolve into a Steering Committee to deal with arising issues in the operation and enhancement of the garden, such as fimdraising for ongoing expenses. 5) How do we know this Initiative is Important to our Community? The Committee has received letters and expressions of support fi:om the following community groups and leaders: Pickering Horticultural Society, Canadian Organic Growers - Durham Chapter, Ajax-Picketing Social Development Council, local and Regional Picketing Councillors. Residents of Rougemount Co-op - a local apartment building - have expressed interest in the community garden by participating in the planning committee and responding to a survey (see Appendix II: Survey Results). In similar projects elsewhere increasing numbers of potential gardeners began to express their interest after the garden was started because it was more visible to the community. 6) What are the Long-term Obiectives the Committee is aiming for? · Children and adults will learn about organic gardening and the cycles of nature and (hopefully) learn that gardening is enjoyable. · Everyone will benefit from interacting with others which leads to a stronger community. · The health of participants will benefit from improved nutrition, increased physical activity and relief of stress (proven from recent studies of people-plant interactions). · Gardeners will save money on food budgets - over $100 is one estimate. · Members of participating local non-profit groups such as Picketing Horticultural Society, Canadian Organic Growers and the Pickering Food Bank will benefit and these groups will raise awareness about their activities. · Community gardens help sustain the environment because participants regain a connection to the land and nature which has largely been lost in our culture. This may lead participants to take further actions to protect the environment - reduce their waste, use their cars less, help protect sensitive local areas, etc. · Community gardens will improve the City of Piekering's image on environmental matters. Gardens are an ideal way to put into practice the first principle of Pickering's 1997 Official Plan - "To meet people's needs while ensuring environmentally appropriate actions". This garden in the Rougemount neighbourhood can serve as a pilot project that could be even more successful in other higher-density neighbourhoods. 7) What are the Steps the Committee will take to achieve our Objectives? i) Gain Pickering Council's approval for use of the site at the new Western Branch Library location. ii) Establish subcommittees and recruit members to join the following: Site Committee; Fundraising Committee; Education/Public Relations Committee; Newsletter Committee; and Social Committee. Plan in detail the activities of each subcommittee, 012 2 Ac~CH~ENT # O/ TO REPORT #0~'~ &:)-O! ..~ oF"6 using Laura Berman's How does Our Garden Grow: A Guide to Coxnmunity Garden Success as a guide. At this time we will start a process to decide on a Volunteer Coordinator for the garden. iii) · The Committee will begin a campaign to solicit donations of money, equipment and gardening supplies from foundations, service clubs, gardening centre:s, building centres and other sources. (See Appendix III: Equipment and Material for C, ommunity Garden.) Assistance will be sought from the media to gain support for this campaign. A "Name the Garden" Contest will raise awareness. We will till or plough the garden and apply compost or other amendments as needed. The site will be prepared with a fence and gate, composters, and rain. barrels or other water source. Gardeners will be recruited and asked to sign agreements (guidelines for maintenance, security, etc. - see Appendix IV: Gardener's A~eement). Payment will be from $10 to $20 per plot (to be finalized). Gardeners will be encouraged to plant extra food for' people they know or to give some produce to the Food Bank. At least one plot will be dedicated to the Food Bank. vi) Workshops will be planned to teach organic gardening methods. These will be held at appropriate times: late winter (planning); early spring (planting and maintaining); fall (harvesting and seed-saving). vii) GARDENING BEGINS! (Spring 2001) 8) Who will be permitted to use the Garden plots? Apartment dwellers (the priority group) will be given first opportunity to use plots. Community groups will be next (one plot each), followed by homeowners. The process will be first-cOme, first-served, and a list of application dates (waiting list) will be maintained. If there is no waiting list, extra plots will be offered to current gardeners who have expressed a preference for more than one plot. 9) How will we Evaluate progress towards our Objectives? A Garden is a very visible project. Gardeners and all visitors will be encouraged to offer suggestions and report problems as soon as possible to the Coordinator,. who will act as the main contact person for any concerns. The Coordinator will liaise with the Steering Committee. Experts in organic gardening will inspect the ggden regularly and be available for advice when problems arise (such as diseases, pests, and weeds). A Comment book will provide feedback from gardeners and other visitors. Steering Cormnittee members will consult with the Toronto Community Garden Network and Coordinator of a Scarborough garden to prevent problems. Appendix I: Layout for Community Garden Appendix H: Survey Results ,ATTACHMENT # O/TO REPORT # -o I 013 Appendix HI: 'Equipment and Materials for Community Garden Appendix IV: Gardener's Agreement (Sample) Appendix II: Survey Results Twenty-one residents of Rougemount Co-op were surveyed in 1998. (If the numbers do not always total 21, it is because some did not give a clear answer to a particular question.) When asked if they were interested in being a community gardener, four said "very", 10 "somewhat,, five expressed interest but needed more information, and two were not. Most respondents said they were willing to invest at least two hours per week to maintain their plot. Sixteen out of twenty-one were willing to share a plot with others, three wanted their own plot and two were unsure. In regards to the location of the garden, two of those surveyed stated distance was not an issue, three said it could be up to fifteen minutes' walk away, six said it should be no more than 10 minutes' walk, and five stated that it should be no further than a five minute walk away. When surveyed on willingness to pay, four said they would each pay as much as $40 for a season of gardening, four said no more than $30, six would be willing to pay as much as $20 per year, while five said they would pay up to $10 each. Some of this last group were basing their figures on the fact that they wanted to share their plot. Most of those surveyed were willing to help others in various ways, including teaching organic methods of gardening, assisting with child care or in fundraising. Other potential features of the community garden that respondents stated were important to them were: ensuring garden was secure (eg. fencing and locks) - all respondents; tools available on site - most respondents; raised beds for those (such as physically disabled) who required them - most respondents; transportation to the site would be needed for one-third of those surveyed if the garden was not within walking distance. 014 ATTACHMENT # OI _TO REPORT Appendix HI: Equipment and Materials for Community Garden (aim "Wish List) It is the intention of the West Picketing Community Garden Committee to first "scrounge" for free items on the following lists. For example we will approach a hardware store to donate items in exchange for free publicity on our brochures, newspaper articles, etc. Ifa free source cannot be found we will raise money from various sources to purchase the items. To enhance the "community" aspect of the project we will first approach local suppliers for donations. It is also hoped many items will be made by volunteers from scrounged materials. These may include: trellises, composters and picnic tables which may be built from donated wood; rain barrels which may be scrounged from brew-your-own outlets; borrowing a roto-tiller from a friendly neighbour, etc. We will also work with other local community garden organizers and the Toronto Community Garden Network to find sources of free materials and supplies. Potential Funding Sources: Service Clubs; Environmental Foundations (eg. Canada Trust 'Friends of the Earth'); City of Picketing (eg. Millenium Project); In-kind donations from Local Businesses; Ontario Power Generation - Picketing Nuclear.

PICKERING REPORT TO COUNCIL 045 FROM: Richard Holborn DATE: January 30, 2001 Division Head, Municipal Property & Engineering REPORT NUMBER: OES 001-01 SUBJECT: Green Streets Canada Tree Canada Foundation Proposal for Financial Assistance for Tree Planting Programs RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Report OES 001-01 regarding the Green Streets Canada financial assistance program be received for information and That Council affirms Pickering's commitment to Green Streets Canada, thereby confirming that municipal funding will be available if our application is successful, as outlined in the application ORIGIN: The Green Streets Canada Program invites municipalities each year across Canada to compete in the funding of a one-time basis tree planting program. The maximum grant possible under Green Streets Canada is $15,000 per municipality. AUTHORITY: N/A FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: For 2001, Staff is applying for a $30,000 tree-planting project to be offset by a $15,000 Green Streets Canada contribution. The City's tree planting budget for boulevards, parks and open spaces has been approximately $20,000 annually over the last three to five years. An additional $15,000 is proposed in the 2001 budget in anticipation of funding from this program. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: N/A 0/[ ~eport to Council OES 001-01 Dale: January 30, 2001 Subject: Green Streets Canada Tree Canada Foundation Proposal for Financial Assistance for Tree Planting Programs Page 2 BACKGROUND: The Tree Canada Foundation in partnership with Green Streets Canada is a not-for-profit, charitable organization established in 1992. Under the direction of a sixteen member volunteer Board of Directors, the Foundation provides education, technical assistance, resources and financial support through working parmerships to encourage Canadians to plant and care for trees in our urban and rural environment in an effort to help reduce the harmful effects of carbon dioxide emissions. Green Streets Canada's objective is to create a partnership between the Tree Canada Foundation and Municipalities across Canada. Its aim is to help improve their urban forests and provide citizens with a greater appreciation of how trees can contribute to the environment and the overall quality of life in their community. This initiative will offer an opportunity to expand and enhance municipal tree planting programs by providing on a competitive basis, additional funding with which to plant more trees of all sizes. Inasmuch as this is a competition with limited funds, Municipalities of proportionate size will be evaluated against each other within six major Canadian geographic regions. The maximum grant possible under Green Streets Canada is $15,000 per municipality. The application will be reviewed and evaluated by an independent regiorLal selection committee based on the informatiOn provided. Municipalities will be notified in writing by the Tree Canada Foundation of the outcome of their request before the end of April 2001.

Mayor City of Pickering Green Streets Canada Proposal Submission for 2001 City of Pickering December 4, 2000 Page 2 050 SECTION B: ............. ~' ~ TO REPORT # 0~..~ oo I-0 I PAST TREE PLANTING ACTIVITIES The City of Pickering's tree planting budget has consistently been $10,000.00 per year for boulevards and $10,000.00 per year for green spaces and parks over the last three to five years. The City plants trees on the boulevards of new homeowners, that are not covered under a subdivision agreement, and old subdivisions that were built before our boulevard tree planting program. We also replace removed, dead and hazardous boulevard trees and plant trees in green spaces and parks that are not covered by subdivisiort agreements. Picketing has planted 10 - 15 trees each year in our memorial tree planting program in parks and green spaces. This is cost-shared with individual or group who request a memorial or dedication. SECTION C: PROPOSED PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The City of Picketing in partnership with local and regional government agencies, businesses, community groups, service clubs and residents of our Cil.y has developed a plan to enhance our waterfront and it's natural resources, according to the vision established by the Picketing Waterfront 2001 Mayors Task Force. Many components of this program have been implemented to date and the purpose of the Green Streets Canada Program proposal is to further enhance this initiative with the planting of approximately 1500 native trees along our trails, wetlands and public spaces. The City of Picketing has five qualified Horticulturalist/Arb°rist trained staff, which includes our Director and Supervisor. We also have a Landscape Architect, who works on the Frenchman's Bay Rehabilitation Project of which the waterfront trail is located. Approximately 1500 native trees would be planted before the "grand opening" in June 2001 of the Millennium Square and boardwalk. Of the 1,500 trees, approximately 150 will be caliper size native trees, and the remaining trees will be bare root nursery stock, whips and possibly container grown stock, depending on cost and availability at the time of purchase. Green Streets Canada City of Pickering 2000 December 4, 2000 Page 3 SECTION D: CARE AND MAINTENANCE The City's staff is competent in looking after the extra trees, as well as the existing and ever increasing number of boulevard and parks and green space trees that are planted. We now have three full time and up to six seasonal staff working on the horticulture/arborist crew, with plans to have a full time and one term employee for 2001. The City also budgets approximately $30,000.00 per year for contracting out tree work for the removal and pruning of City trees. The City is proactive in our approach to tree care. We have not used pesticides on trees in a number of years. Instead, the City uses an integrated pest management plan (IPM) with its main focus on proper cultural practices. SECTION E: COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT MaFor's Task Force Waterfront 2001 (October 1997- June 1998) The mandate of this initiative was to develop an in-depth vision for the evolution of Pickering's Waterfront. To carry out this mandate, a steering committee was established and included representatives fi:om community associations, service clubs, the Picketing Harbour Company, Frenchman's Bay Yacht Club, Ontario Power Generation, Toronto and Region Conservation Authority and the Waterfront Regeneration Trust. A number of committees were established to address a variety of issues including, environment, park design, tourism, public access and education. Representatives of these committees included residents, landowners, service clubs and agencies that volunteered as a fa'st step toward rejuvenating our waterfront. Frenchman's BaF Watershed Rehabilitation Project- (October 1998 to October 2002) The City of Picketing supports and assists with the programs delivered by this non-profit community environmental project. To date, members of our community have planted 2000 native trees and shrubs in riparian and wetland areas throughout the Frenchman's Bay Watershed. The community planting initiatives have assisted in restoring nine hectares of Frenchman's Bay and Hydro Marsh and four kilometers of riparian habitat along Pine Creek, the main tributary to these costal marshes. When suitable, trees and shrubs grow in these moist environments, they also filter out excess nutrients, pesticides, animal wastes and sediments coming fi:om adjacent urban activities. 051 Green Streets Canada City of Pickering 2000 December 4, 2000 Page 4 O52 .. ~-,,.,:'. ~ , ,, 7'~ ............

These Saturday mornings occur once in April and again in October and focus on natural area community plantings, cleanups and wildlife habitat creation projects along our waterfront and Frenchman's Bay. Participation by community volunteers ranges from 100 to 200 individuals. In a typical day, we will plant 500 native trees and shrubs, cleanup two tons of garbage and at our most recent event, volunteers painted yellow fish on 100 storm drains in our community. Volunteer Participation A Green Streets Canada committee will be established with community representatives to assist with the selection of native plant material and establish planting projects for our spring and fall Community Pride Days. Through our communications and outreach efforts, we will invite local service clubs, community organizations, businesses and families to participate in thc planting associated with our Green Streets Canada (GSC) Program. Number of Volunteers It is expected that we will host two events during 2001 for the GSC program and involve a minimum of 200 volunteers; four staff for an estimated 80 - 100 hours of volunteer time contributed to the effort. Green Streets Canada City of Pickering 2000 December 4, 2000 Page 5 ATT. ACHMEiWN # --~ TOREPORT# O~-'-eo ool-OI Communit~ Partners Through the Community Pride Days that we have hosted over the last five years, we have established a strong and effective community partnership. We have worked with the Frenchman's Bay Yacht Club to facilitate cleanup of water ways and host volunteer barbecue lunches; corporate sponsors like Ontario Power Generation Pickering Nuclear to cover the costs of food and refreshments; families, businesses, community groups and service clubs to assist with the volunteer tasks. How will the community maintain the continued interest for tree planting in future years? The GSC Project proposed by the City of Picketing incorporates several elements to sustain continued interest for the tree planting in the future. Interpretive $i~na~e We will develop a series of interpretive signs to communicate the environment benefits of our Green Streets Canada Program. The topics include overview of the program and partnership recognition, native species and biodiversity, carbon sequestering, Carolinian Forest species, Great Lakes Lowland Forest species, Trees for wildlife and natural heritage of our local wetlands and woodlands. These signs will be located along our trails 'and boardwalk to provide educational opportunities and promote the planting of native species in our community. ' Native Trees Trail Guide Native trees planted by community volunteers will be identified through a trail guide, highlighting our community's natural heritage. The guide will include a map of the area, identify species locations, and provide biological, historical and cultural values for each species. The guide will be available through local public information sources, our web page and distributed at special events along the waterfront. What educational materials/events are planned to increase public awareness and encourage longer-term skills in tree planting and care and maintenance? · Interpretive signs on the trail for describing native trees · Fact sheets for volunteers (native trees, planting techniques in our Community Brochure) · Web Page information on planting native trees for homeowners · Backyard Naturalization Workshop for homeowners - Frenchman's Bay Watershed.

Paterson Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer DATE: February 6, 2001 REPORT NUMBER: CS 05-01 SUBJECT: 2001 Interim Levy and Interim Tax Installment Due Dates - Revised RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that report CS 05-01. received by Council and that: 1. of the Director, .Corporate Services & Treasurer be revised interim levy installment due dates be March 12, and April 26, 2001 be adopted; that By-Law 5793/01 establishing the original due dates of February 26 and April 26, 2001 be repealed; the attached By-Law, providing for the imposition of the taxes and incorporating the revised due dates, be read three times and approved by Council; the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer be authorized to make any changes or undertake any actions necessary, including altering due dates, in order to ensure the tax billing process is completed; and, the appropriate City of Pickering officials be authorized to take the necessary actions to give effect thereto. ORIGIN: Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer AUTHORITY: Municipal Act, R.S.O. 1990 as amended, Section 370(1) Report to Council CS 05-01 Date: February 6, 2001 Subject: 2001 Interim Levy and Interim Tax Installment Due Dates - Revised Page 2 O59 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Picketing Council on February 5th, passed By-Law No. 5793/01 establishing the interim levy with due dates of February 26 and April 26, 2001. There has been a delay in issuing the tax bills mainly due to computer system problems. Last December, the Province passed Bill 140 - Continued Protection for Property Taxpayers Act and this legislation changed the interim levy calculation methodology. The software vendor had to write new computer programs to accommodate the legislation changes and there have been a few problems with these new programs. BACKGROUND: Picketing Council may recall tha't Corporate Services Report CS 02-01 indicated that the billing due dates may be changed due to billing software problems. Unfortunately there were several problems with the tax billing software that has resulted in delays in issuing the tax bills. While Recommendation No. 3 of the above mentioned report allowed the Treasurer some latitude in adjusting the above dates, it was felt that a two week delay necessitated the approval of Council. Change in Interim Tax Billing Methodology In previous years, the interim tax levy calculation was calculated by multiplying the property's current assessed value multiplied by 50% of the tax rate. For the 2001 interim levy, Bill 140 (Continued Protection for Property Taxpayers Act) changed the calculation methodology to 50% of the actual taxes levied in 2000. The software vendor had to write new programs to accommodate the legislated changes. Billing Software Changes & Delays When staff create or produce tax bills, the billing software program is first run in a test environment. In creating the tax bills, there are several steps involved such as balancing of the assessment and taxes. After the program has been successfully run in the test environment, the tax bills are then created in the production or actual database environment. Staff experienced software problems when they were performing the various steps. Whenever, staff experienced a problem with the billing software, they would immediately contact the vendor's customer support to ask for assistance in resolving the problem as were the other municipalities who use the software. We then had to wait for the software vendor to send a patch or fix to their software. The software vendor controls the programming source code and therefore, the City of Picketing is dependent upon the vendor to provide the solution. There was also an error with the assessment data that caused a delay in issuing the tax bills. In addition, the software vendor converted the tax system including the billing software module to run on the latest version of the oracle database software during mid January 2001. The software conversion may have also contributed to the billing delays. Proposed Billing Schedule Recommendation No. 3, will allow the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer some latitude, limited by Provincial legislation, in effecting whatever may be necessary in order to ensure that the taxes are billed r>roverlv and in 060 Report to Council CS 05-01 Date: February 6, 2001 Subject: 2001 Interim Levy and Interim Tax Installment Due Dates - Revised Page 3 ATTACHMENTS: 1.

REPORT TO COUNCIL FROM: Bruce Taylor, AMCT, CMM City Clerk DATE: February 5, 2001 REPORT lxPJMBER: CL 04-01 SUBJECT: Proposed Increase to Taxicab Fares and Decrease in Transfer Fee · RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Clerk's Report CL 04-01 regarding a proposed increase in taxicab fares and a decrease in the transfer fee of taxicab owners' licences be received; and 2. That the draft by-law to provide for an increase in taxicab fares effective March 1,2001 and March 1, 2002 be enacted. ORIGIN: Petition signed by taxicab owners and submitted to City at a meeting held on January 26, 2001. AUTHORITY: Section 232 of the Municipal Act FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Decrease in revenue of approximately $17,500 based on an average of five transfers per year and based on a decrease in the transfer fee of $4,000 to $500. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: As a result of a request from taxicab owners set out in a petition that was submitted at a meeting held on January 26, 2001 with representatives of the taxicab industry, a recommendation is being made to increase the fares for hiring a taxicab. There was also a request made to lower the transfer fee of taxicab owners' plates from $4,000.00 to a lower amount which I have set at $500.00. BACKGROUND: Report to Council CL 04-01 Subject: Taxicab Fares & Transfer Fees Date: February 5, 2001 Page 2 071 The following is a chart setting out a comparison of transfer fees and fares with other municipalities: MUNICIPALITY TRANSFER FEE DROP CHARGE KILOMETRE CHARGE Pickering $4,000 $2.00 10 cents per 1/12 km (or every 83 metres) Ajax No transfer fee $2.20 10 cents per 1/13 kan (or every 77 metres) Oshawa $50 $2.25 25 cents per 250 metres Markham $100 $2.50 25 cents per 250 metres Richmond Hill $500 $2.50 25 cents per 250 metres Vaughan $400 $2.50 25 cents per 250 metres This information was forwarded to the representatives of the taxicab industry and they responded by submitting a petition requesting that the fares be increased on March 1, 2001 to provide for an increase in the drop charge from $2.00 to $2.45 (22.5%), an increase in the kilometre charge from $1.20 per kilometre to $1.40 (16.7%) per kilometre and an increase in the fee for waiting from 25 cents per minute to 40 cents per minute. They further asked that the by-law to set the fares provide for an automatic increase in the kilometre charge on March 1, 2002 from $1.40 per kilometre to $1.50 (7.1%) per kilometre. To put these proposed increases in perspective, the following are the charges that would be incurred ifa person hired a taxicab to travel two kilometres: MUNICIPALITY Pickerin~ Picketing __(P__L0~sed for March 1,200 ~ Picketing r__(P_f_9_~sed for March 1, 2002) Oshawa Markham FARE FOR TRAVELLING TWO KILOMETRES $4.30 $5.11 $5.30 $4.70 $4.00 $4.25 As can be noted above, the combination of an increase in the drop charge and kilometre charge will result in an increase of 19% effective March 1, 2001 and a further increase of 4% on March 1, 2002. It must be noted that there has been no fare increases since November 20, 1989. Council passed the current Taxicab By-law in 1986 and limited the number of taxicab owners plates that could be issued at 48. This was based on one plate being issued for every 950 population which was the standard in most GTA municipalities that limited plate issuance. At that time, Council also prohibited the transfer of owners plates because there were 100 owners plates issued and Council wanted this number to drop to a figure that was close to 48. In 1987, the taxicab industry requested that transfers of nw,~,-~ ,,lo,,,o ~,~ ~,, ..... J 072 Report to Council CL 04-01 Subject: Taxicab Fares & Transfer Fees Date: February 5, 2001 Page 3 The number of plates that are active at present is 74. Although the Taxicab By-law still limits the number of plates to be issued at 48, based on the current population of the City of 88,000, a total of 93 plates could be issued based on the formula developed in 1987 of one plate per 950 of population. Although I would not recommend that Council increase the number of plates that can be issued, I would agree with the taxicab industry that the fee for transferring plates could be reduced because Council's goal in 1987 to reduce the number of plates that are active has been, achieved.
