Budget Guiding Principles
Notes:
Priority guiding principles for Budget:
• Sustainability and long-term security• Develop a culture wherein all bylaws, policies and procedures that impact the budget are
reviewed on a regular basis and applied to the budget process.
1. Reserves:
Guiding Principles:
• Legal first
• Good management, mandated responsibilities
• Asset Management
• Strategic funding
• Reduce Corporate risk over time
• Reserves will fit within ongoing planning, will be designed to be simple and workable withflexibility built in.
• In response to the requirements of the Municipal Act, and our OCP
• Triggers will be built in but able to respond to environmental events and change
Recommendation:
> We will rescind existing Reserve Bylaws and replace with Priority Reserves as delineated in aMaster Reserve Bylaw, with corresponding policy and procedure.
> NOTE: long term we will need to look at comprehensive condition analysis of our assets and acorresponding Reserve Fund study in order to ensure we are allocating appropriate amountsinto each reserve.We will also require trained staff to manage AMP.
2. Investments:
Guiding Principles:
• Ethics as per VHJ Vision Statement, with the goal being one of ensuring the health of VHJmonies and adequate resources for the community, we will therefore strive to make as higha return as is possible with moderate risk
• We will make educating the public as we go a priority responsibility
• Council will give direction to the investment firm, which will provide correspondingrecommendations, and the management of which will be the responsibility ofAdministration
Recommendation:
1
Concept will be taken to Council January 9, 2019Administration will be directed to develop draft policy for Council deliberation
3. Fees:
Guiding Principles:
• Create a Master Fees Bylaw that becomes a relevant, and consistently utilizedbylaw/document.
Recommendation:
That Administration start the process of consolidating all fee policies.> That Administration compile actual facility operational costs for Council consideration
during Budget discussions.Regional comparison
> Brief look at existing municipal examples
4. Service Level determination: gold, silver, bronze
Areas to consider:
• Parks, existing and new
• Green spaces maintenance
a Landfill customer service, hours ane of use
• Office customer service, hours and ease of use
• Infrastructure development
• Communication
• Pool, existing and new
• Advertising
a Walking trails maintenance
• Snow removal and roads maintenance
5. GrantsinKind:
Guiding Principles:
• Existing policy allows for discounting to children focused events and activities• Each ask for fee reduction presently goes to Council
• Present process is time consuming and difficult to apply without baseline standards to guidedecisions.
Recommendation:> Research other municipal policies/bylaws and joint use agreements
Calculate true costs for budget discussionAssess community needs and facility/support
2
6. Assessment of existing plans for financial impacts only.
Recommendations:
> List of existing plans and costs incurred> Articulate/understand community buy-in to existing plans> Understood that many of our plans were not passed by Bylaw and may actually be outdated> Understood that there is an implicit ownership in the community of some of our plans
Rate financial impacts within context of budget discussions
7. OCP:
Guiding Principles:
• Our present OCP/Zoning Bylaw is now structurally flawed and as such is causingissues/opportunity cost in our community
• We require a community-comprehensive vision for short/mid/long term growth
• We need to involve our neighbors and stakeholders in our process
Recommendations:
Will take Councillor Courtney Quinn forward to Council meeting as appointee to OCPSteering Committee.
> Will contact YG and CAFN Steering Committee participants.> Steering Committee will meet and will commit to timelines with understanding that
OCP/Zoning Bylaw to be complete in its entirety by year’s end.> We will consult with YG Indigenous Affairs through Community Affairs on our duty to
accommodate on traditional lands and municipal land contiguous to CAFN lands.
8. Zoning Bylaw: (looking to May)
Guiding Principles:
Our existing zoning bylaw, because of its age, is causing us issues as far as relevance to today’senvironment and regulations. This is therefore a structural issue and we have a timeline on ournew OCP/Zoning Bylaw revision and implementation. We need to address the structural issuescreated by our existing Bylaw. It is in our collective interest to seek a satisfactory resolution toour zoning issues in a comprehensive fashion.
Re-present at a Council meeting and create narrative in a YouTube format
9. We need to set up an effective “Education, Compliance, Enforcement” function for VHJ, as wetransition to a new world order with new OCP/Zoning Bylaw.
3
10. We will look to partnering opportunities (EMS, CAFN)11. ADR/mediation culture
12. Infractions/ticketing structure13. Administration will look to different models of service delivery for budget considerations
NOTE:
Members of Council will start to articulate their values regarding the following:
14. Fees — cost recovery, subsidy, 2 tier user pay systems15. Taxes — equitable distribution, what should taxes cover16. CMG split between O&M and Capital17. AMP dedicated reserves

Kluane National Park&Reserve119 Logan StreetHalnes Junction, YukonYOB-ilO
Cathy ClarkCAOVillage of Haines JunctionBox5339YOB-ilO
Dear Cathy
The Kluane National Park Health and Safety Committee Is In the process of updating our emergencyevacuation plan of our administration/operations centre at 119 Logan Street directly across from the villagebakery. We have recently had a major renovation and upgrade to our building and as a result need toupdate the evacuation plan.
At this time we have Identified the outdoor muster area directly north of the bakery in the small fieldbetween the trailer park. As you can well Imagine after last weeks cold snap this would not be an ideal placefor people to stay for any length of time during cold or rain.
I had a brief discussion with Rick Staley of the Haines Junction Volunteer Ambulance about using theEmergency Medical ServicesfEMS) building as a secondary muster point for any cold or Inclement weather.Rick indicated the EMS building is part of Village of Haines Junction infrastructure. Kluane National Park andReserve staff make up quite a few members of the local EMS including ambulance, firefighters and searchand rescue. Each member would have a security clearance and an access code to the building.
We would like to request the use of the EMS building for the purpose of a muster point for an emergencyevacuation of Parks staff from our place of work at 119 Logan Street during poor weather conditions. Pleaseadvise if this acceptable and if you need anything furthur regarding this important safety issue for our staff.
Kind egards,
Linaya WorkmanPark ManagerKluane National Park and Reserve
