FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE DECEMBER 10, 2012
USER FEE/SERVICE CHARGE REVIEW & BY-LAW UPDATES
Recommendation
The Commissioner of Finance & City Treasurer and the Director of Budgeting and Financial Planning, in consultation with City departments recommend:
That the user fee/service charge schedule outlined in Attachment #2 be approved and effective January 1st, 2013.
Contribution to Sustainability
Sustainability seeks to meet the needs and aspirations of the present without compromising the ability to meet those of the future. Therefore, to ensure services are adequately funded it is important to sustain or improve revenue/cost relationships. Otherwise, any reduction in a user fee or service charge cost recovery ratio will have a corresponding and direct impact on the City’s levy and/or service level funding. As part of the City's Draft 2013 Budget and 2014-2016 Operating Plan, departments were required to review user fees and service charges and make adjustments to sustain or improve revenue/cost relationships.
Economic Adjustment The proposed economic adjustments are price related only and have been incorporated in the Draft 2013 Budget and 2014-2016 Operating Plan. The associated total budget adjustments are illustrated below: A price variance budget summary is provided as Attachment #1, which illustrates the overall budget change for each by-law and the corresponding department section. Proposed individual user fee and service charge changes are provided as Attachment #2. Communications Plan
Vaughan residents are invited to attend this public meeting to provide comments with respect to this matter.The community has been notified of an opportunity for public input on user fee/service charge adjustments, consistent with the City’s public notification by-law. Efforts consist of:
• Local media advertisements, beginning Nov. 24th
• City website – City Page Online
The Finance and Administration Committee will be followed immediately after adjournment by a Special Council Meeting to adopt the recommendations of the Finance and Administration Committee and any necessary by-laws. Agendas will be available in the City Clerk’s Office on Friday, November 30, 2012.
Purpose
The purpose of this report is to provide the Finance and Administration Committee with information on proposed changes to user fees and service charges for the period 2013 to 2016.
Furthermore, given some user fee and service charges expire on December 31st, 2012 the intent of this report is to have updated by-laws in effect as of January 1st, 2013. The by-laws affected by this report are listed below.
Background Analysis and Options
Inherent in the 2013-2016 Operating Budget Guidelines is a continued emphasis on maximizing the cost recovered on services provided. In addition to adjusting revenues for anticipated changes in activity volume, departments were requested to:
Increase fees and charges in relation to annual cost increases, at minimum by the rate of inflation, in scheduled increments, unless otherwise specified.
Incorporate a net full cost benefit in fees set for external inter-municipal services
Submit new user fee and service charge opportunities Most of the City‘s fees/charges are based on existing studies and multi-year by-laws; therefore prior year budget guidelines focused only on the General User Fee By-law, which captures a variety of minor/miscellaneous items. However with the emergence of multi-year planning and varying by-law intervals/expiry dates, this process was expanded to coordinate and consolidate the planning of user fee/service charge by-laws for review, update and approval under one common process and 4 year term. To ensure fees are effective at the beginning of each year and inline with budgeted revenue targets, user fees and service charge by-laws will need to be approved prior to finalizing the budget. Opportunities for future adjustments will be accommodated annually through the budget process. Due to the number of fees and service charges within the City this action is being phased over time, with other by-laws (e.g. Recreation fees, Building Code fees, etc) coming onboard with future budget processes. Until then, these user fees and service charges will follow the existing by-law timelines. Once fully in effect, this action should streamline the process and ensure all user fee/service charge by-laws are reviewed together and updated regularly, providing a more holistic representation of the City’s revenue generating efforts.
Fees and Charges By-Law By-Law 396-2002 as amended by Fee Schedule By-Law 13-2012
Planning Application Fees By-Law 48-2011
Animal Licensing and Associated Fees By-Law 53-2002 as amended by Fee Schedule By-Law 2-2010
Business Licenses and Fees By-Law 315-2005 as amended by By-Law 177-2011
User Fee/Service Charge Review Results The budget adjustments associated with department submitted user fee and service charge price increases discussed above are as follows:
The above adjustments are included in the Draft 2013 Budget and 2014-2016 Operating Plan. It should be noted, that the above only reflects budget adjustments related to price adjustments and does not incorporate any volume changes.
In general, departments followed the budget guidelines and increased fees accordingly. Based on 5 year historical average trends the guidelines suggested a minimum increase of 2.2%. As illustrated above, the revenue budgets increased on average by 2.98% over the 4 year term and total increases per by-law ranged from 0 to 15.6%. There are a few fees, which are based on activity cost recovery and these items will not illustrate price increases. Most 0% increases are a result of regulations, demand restrictions, or periodic increases every number of years. The 0% increase in animal licensing by-law 2-2010 (except for 2015) is a consequence of being consistent with other municipalities’ pricing strategies. The most significant budget increase is related to the Development Planning Department, which is gradually increasing fees in an effort to achieve full cost recovery. The second largest budget increase is related to the General Fees by-law 13-2012, which includes fees for services offered by several departments. Most of this increase in 2013 is related to Finance and Building Standards departments, which generate approximately $26K and $22K respectively. New User Fees & Service Charges As a result of the review, only a few new user fees related to the General Fee By-law were proposed and they are as follows:
Animal Services added two new fees for animal surrenders and animal disposals. These new fees are expected to generate approximately $1,450 for 2013.
Parks & Forestry Operations added several new fees for tree dedications, park bench dedications, private property tree protection permit administration fee and access agreements administration fee. These new fees are expected to generate approximately $11k - $13K each year for the four year period.
Public Works Department added a fee for roads pre-event inspection and traffic control fee for special events. There is no budget impact as the volume is unknown and the department will revisit next year once more experience is developed.
No new fees were proposed for periods 2014 to 2016.

Conclusion
Inline with the 2013-2016 Operating Budget Guidelines there is a continued emphasis on maximizing the cost recovered on services through user fees. Given, varying by-law intervals/expiry dates and the emergence of multi-year planning this process was expanded to coordinate and consolidate the planning of user fee/service charge by-laws under one common process. This action is being phased-in over time. As a result of the above, a review of several by-laws has taken place and specific results are provided in Attachment #2. Included with the results, are new fees proposed by the Enforcement Services, Parks Operations, and Public Works departments. Illustrated below is a brief summary of the total budget adjustment resulting from this process. The above figures have been incorporated in the Draft 2013 Budget and 2014-2016 Operating Plan. The community has been notified of an opportunity for public input on user fee/service charge adjustments, consistent with the City’s public notification by-law. The Finance and Administration Committee will be followed immediately after adjournment by a Special Council Meeting to adopt the recommendations of the Finance and Administration Committee and any necessary by-laws.
