Message from the Mayor

On behalf of the Members of Council, I am pleased to present the Town of Caledon’s 2014 Budget which was adopted by Council on December 3, 2013.

Caledon is a community of communities with a mix of rural and urban living. As we plan for our future, our rich agricultural heritage remains enshrined in our being. This budget was derived through public consultation and molded around central themes that serve our residents.

As an award winning green community, Caledon strives to maintain its status as an environmental leader in the municipal world. The Niagara Escarpment, the Oak Ridges Moraine, and the Credit and Humber River watersheds contribute to Caledon’s character as the best place to live, work and raise a family.

With a focus on maintaining service levels and planning for future anticipated growth, Caledon is striving to improve the Town’s non-residential tax base while continuing to invest in health and wellness, roads and the safety of our residents.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Council and staff for their hard work and contribution to the Town’s 2014 Budget.

Sincerely,

Marolyn Morrison Mayor

Welcome to Caledon

The Town of Caledon was established on January 1, 1974 in conjunction with the creation of regional government. Representing an amalgamation of the former County of Peel townships of Albion, Caledon and the northern half of Chinguacousy, the Town of Caledon forms the northern municipality of the present Region of Peel.

It was the rich water and mineral resources that attracted settlers and early industrialists. It has been said that the first European settlers came in search of gold and although gold was never found, our industrial development then began. In present day, we celebrate our golden hillsides, trails, parks, rivers and farmland.

Today, the Town of Caledon offers many services and prospects for residents that help make Caledon a safe, active healthy and enjoyable community to call home. Recognized as Canada’s safest town and Ontario’s greenest Town, Caledon is a blend of urban and rural,

modern and historic, all nestled between the Hills of the Headwaters, Oak Ridges Moraine and the Niagara Escarpment.

Expect the best of all worlds! Caledon boasts thriving urban centres amid a striking and safe natural haven that together blends business success with an unmatched quality of life, and all this within an hour of Toronto – North America’s fifth largest urban centre.

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

BUDGET INFLUENCES The Town of Caledon’s annual budgets are influenced by various long-term plans, Town policies, and external environmental factors. The following pages outline the guidelines and specific budget pressures that shaped the 2014 Budget.

Community Based Strategic Plan (CBSP) The Town Council’s goals and directives set the tone for the development of the budget document. Council has adopted the Community Based Strategic Plan (see Appendix A) which is the basis for the Town of Caledon’s goals and priorities.

The Community Based Strategic Plan (CBSP) is the blueprint and guide to manage change in the Town of Caledon over the next ten years. The CBSP and the Long-Term Strategic Financial Plan will guide the Town’s future operating and capital budgets and other financial decisions. The implementation of new initiatives and/or services that Council approves to undertake in the future will be considered within the parameters of the vision and the six goals which are the basis of the plan.

The Town of Caledon’s budget process incorporates the alignment of Town departmental business plans and budgets to the CBSP’s actions, goals, and objectives. Specifically, the departmental business plans include a section for departments to outline their 2014 departmental priorities, goals and initiatives; how the initiatives/goals are funded and how the initiatives/goals help achieve the actions, goals, and objectives of the CBSP.

Departmental business plan goals and objectives become goals and objectives for staff on which they are evaluated in their annual performance reviews. This also ensures that Town staff is engaged in realizing the goals and objectives identified within the CBSP.

As part of the action plan and monitoring framework for the Community Based Strategic Plan each department is required to identify three to five actions from the CBSP in their Business Plan to be implemented through the budget process.

In conclusion, the Community Based Strategic Plan has been approved by Council as the guiding document that identifies the community vision, goals and strategic objectives and acts as the blueprint for managing change over the next ten years in the Town of Caledon.

Caledon Long-term Strategic Financial Plan (CLTSFP) The Caledon Long-term Strategic Financial Plan (see Appendix B) is an integral part of the Town’s annual budget process. The direction of the annual budget process is consistent with the principles and policies of the Caledon Long-term Strategic Financial Plan.

The purpose of the CLTSFP is to provide a framework to guide Council and the Town’s departments, boards and committees in their financial planning and decision-making processes. Through this, the output is to improve and strengthen the long-term financial health for the Town of Caledon.

Page 15: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

The objectives of the CLTSFP are: To focus on cost efficient and effective service and program delivery To maximize revenues through a variety of sources To use debt in a fiscally responsible manner To properly maintain and fund the Town’s physical assets To account for and fund liabilities To ensure that user fees remain regionally competitive To ensure that growth pays its fair share of growth related infrastructure costs To establish a stable and equitable tax burden policy for the community

These objectives have led to the creation of several internal policies including: General, Financial Management, Development Charges, and Funding from Other Levels of Government, Asset Management & Liabilities, Capital Budget Management and Debt Management policies. Within each of these policy categories are direct influences to the budget process, a few examples of these policies are listed below:

Financial Management Policy - Proposals for new services or service level adjustments(mandatory or discretionary) will be presented to Council for consideration. Theseproposals shall include impacts on the operating and capital budgets, funding sources,human resource requirements, performance measures, and long-term financial impact.

Development Charges Policy - The appropriate financial commitment will be consideredeach year from 2010 to 2021, for the purpose of increasing the Town’s contribution tothe growth-related roads capital program.

Asset Management and Liabilities Policy - The Town will include increased fundingwithin its annual capital funding to effect lifecycle costing for all of the Town’s tangiblecapital assets to be fully implemented by 2020.

Capital Budget Management Policy – The Town has moved to a multi-year capitalprocess: one year detailed Capital budget, Term of Council Capital, and Ten YearCapital Forecast. The Multi-Year Capital Budget will be re-evaluated and updated on anannual basis by staff for consideration by Council.

Debt Management Policy - For tax–supported debt, debt carrying costs must be paidthrough the Town’s Operating Budget, while for rate-supported debt, debt carrying costsmust be paid through user fees.

The Caledon Long-term Strategic Financial Plan has shifted the focus of budget preparation beyond one year and this has also changed the budget process and the factors that are considered in the preparation of both the operating and capital budgets. Currently, the operating budget is only prepared for the next year but in the near future it will be prepared for multiple years. The Town budgets for projects referred to as “Term of Council” which are projects where the total capital project amount is approved and Council commits to fund the balance for the Council term. The Capital Budget is prepared for the next year and priorities are provided for 10 (ten) years.

Page 16: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

Short-term Inflationary Factors Each year major items are reviewed and data is gathered on factors that could potentially influence the next year’s budget. Short-term inflationary factors, such as rate changes for Town purchases, are projected and communicated to cost centre managers for incorporation into the 2014 budget, if applicable. Short-term Inflationary factors that impacted the 2014 budget include: Projected Consumer Price Index for 2014 is 2.0% (based on Bank of Canada Monetary Policy Report, July 2013)

Utilities - Natural Gas = 1% rate increase; however, departments were requested to adjust budgets

based on projected volumes for 2014. The volumes for 2014 may be impacted by new energy efficient equipment recently installed at a facility.

- Electricity = 5% rate increase projected; departments were requested to adjust budgets for volume changes first, and then apply the projected rate increase.

- Water = 8% rate increase projected; departments were requested to adjust for volume changes, if applicable, and then apply the rate increase

General Liability Insurance increase in rates of 15% projected; and

Base Annual Operating Budget Impacts Each year, departments consider factors that impact the Town’s base operating budgets, e.g. budgets that provide the same level or service. To assist in this process, departments have been provided two broad categories of base budget impacts:

1) Unavoidable Budget Increases2) Recommended Budget Reductions

Then sub-categories within each to organize and communicate, in a consistent manner, the increases and decreases to their base operating budgets.

All 2014 base operating budget increases and decreases are categorized in one of the following by department (see table below). All departmental base budget increases/decreases are rolled-up for the Town, as a whole, to communicate the overall impact to the Town’s Operating Budget in the same categories:

Unavoidable Budget Changes Mandatory Legislation Includes new or a change in legislation that requires the

department to incur additional costs to start a new service or change service levels.

Employee Compensation This is directly linked to existing staffing and includes negotiated union contract adjustments for union staff, economic adjustments for non-union staff, job rate progression, and benefit adjustments such as statutory deductions (Canada Pension Plan, Employment Insurance) and pension rate adjustments related to the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System (OMERS).

Annualization of New Staff If partial-year funding for a new hire was approved in the previous year’s budget, the balance of the budget (to equal a full year) is identified.

Annualization of New Services

If partial-year funding for new services was approved in the previous year’s budget, the balance of the budget (to equal a full year) is identified.

Page 17: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

Inflationary This section is used to identify budget increases due to rate increases for items such as maintenance supplies/services, insurance, winter maintenance salt/salt. This section excludes utilities, which is specifically identified below.

Utilities This section is used to identify utility changes; projected rate changes are provided from Finance and the volume changes are determined by the department responsible for the facility.

Revenues This section is for departments to identify revenue adjustments based on volume only.

Previously Approved Council Initiatives

During 2013, Council reports that have 2014 budget implications are identified in the reports and summarized quarterly. Subject to Council approval of the reports and initiatives contained in the reports, the 2014 budget implications are included in the base 2014 budget as an unavoidable budget increase in this section.

Recommended Budget Reductions Service Delivery Efficiencies

Departments are required to find base operating budget reductions without a reduction to service levels. That is, the same level of service in 2013 but at a lower cost (e.g. lower usage, consumption, different way of doing things, etc.)

New Fees/Revenues Incremental revenue impact of new fees or charges for a product, service or program that the Town has not charged for in the past.

Fee Rate Increases Incremental revenue impact of proposed increases to existing fees in the fees by-law.

BUDGET PROCESS In July 2013, in preparation for the 2014 Budget, budget templates were available in our SharePoint site and budget software (Capital, Operating, Head Count and Fees By-Law) and parameters were provided to the departments with instructions of how to complete the templates. A Financial Analyst was assigned to each department to provide budget assistance, including researching historical actuals beyond what was provided in templates and to provide general financial/budget advice for new managers. The instructions included discussion of Town-wide goals and objectives, budgeting guidelines for the operating and capital budgets, timelines, an overview of fiscal constraints, and resources available for allocation. The budget directives and instructions distributed were designed to assist the departments in preparing all budget requests and forms.

Page 18: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

The budget templates provided to the departments include the following:

Operating Budget TemplateThe Operating Budget worksheet is intended to develop the Town’s Base Operating Budgetin a focused, transparent and understandable manner. The worksheet is pre-populated with2012 actuals, 2013 year budget, current year budget which is considered the base budget,as well as 2013 year’s year-to-date actual figures. Columns are also provided fordepartments to account for the annual budget impacts mentioned on the previous page, e.g.unavoidable budget increases/decreases and recommended budget reductions. Since allincreases/decreases to the 2014 budget is consistently entered into specific columns,communication of operating budget pressures facing the Town, overall, and specific todepartments is consistent and easy to understand.A sample of the 2014 Operating Budget template is included in Appendix C (page 245).Each departmental business plan includes a summary of the base operating budget andapproved 2014 Budget.

Unmet Needs TemplateIncrease in service levels, additional staffing, or new programs that are not part of the baseoperating budget from the previous year are documented on Unmet Needs templates. TheSenior Management Team reviews all unmet need requests and then categorizes therequests between Urgent Unmet Needs and Other Unmet Needs. All unmet needs arepresented for Council consideration, however, staff recommends Council approval of theUrgent unmet needs and associated net expense increases, if any, in the operating budget.Other unmet needs are presented for Council review and consideration for inclusion in thebudget should there be sufficient funds. Council, upon reviewing all unmet needs, maydirect staff to move Unmet Needs submissions from the urgent list to the other unmet needslist or vice versa.

Fee By-law TemplateThe Fee By-law template is provided to the departments pre-populated with the current yearfees (2013) and is helpful in incorporating fee changes into the budget document. Feechanges are considered by Council annually through the budget process. The templateallows departments to propose an increase to the fees by identifying a percentage orspecific dollar amount increase to the fee. The new fee plus applicable taxes isautomatically calculated for the 2014 Fee By-law.

Departments include the Revenue impact of fee rate increases identified on the Fee By-law template, in the Operating Budget template under the heading (Column O – Fee Rate Increases).

The 2014 Fees By-law report and Fee By-law schedules will be submitted for Council approval at the same time as the 2014 Budget.

Page 19: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

Business Plan TemplateThe Business Plan Template allows for each department to communicate their:

mission statement; departmental chart department roles and responsibilities; major customers or clients; 2013 achievements; significant trends and challenges for the department; and 2014 departmental priorities

The business plan templates are linked to the Community Based Strategic Plan (see Appendix A) as departments identify how their 2014 priorities are aligned to achieving the objectives and actions in the Community Based Strategic Plan.

Capital Budget TemplateCapital Budget templates are provided to departments to submit capital projects to beconsidered in the 2014 Capital Budget.

Capital items are considered to be infrastructure, and items having a useful life exceedingone year. They can include buildings and building improvements, land and landimprovements, bridges, culverts and storm ponds, vehicles, machinery and equipment,office furniture and fixtures and results in the acquisition of, or extends the life of a fixedasset. Capital budget submissions are also submitted for projects requiring one-timefunding for example studies.

The Town’s capital program funds from various sources such as reserves and reservefunds, tax funding, infrastructure grants from other levels of government, external debt(issued by the upper-tier municipality), and grants/donations provided from privateorganizations/charities.

In 2012, as the Town began long-term planning of capital expenditures and tax funding tosupport the increased annual expenditures, Council approved the following commitment toincrease the Town’s tax funded capital program (a sustainable source to fund capital):

Incremental tax revenues from assessment growth is to be allocated to the tax levy fundedCapital program annually equal to the greater of:

a) 1% of assessment growth plus half of new Commercial / Industrial assessmentrevenue; or

b) 50% of assessment growth revenue for the year.

The original gap in the 2008 capital program was $16.4M and it has been reduce in the 2014 approved capital budget to be $8.5M. This addresses some of the infrastructure gap but, only at a historical level and not full replacement value.

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

Departments were also provided the 10-year Capital forecast used in the 2013 Budget to: - Update their capital requirements for an additional year (e.g. 10th year of the capital

projection needs to be added annually); - Update based on changes in priorities, new costing information; - Obtain preliminary information to prepare the 2014 Capital Budget templates (e.g.

capital requests for 2014)

The 10-Year capital forecast was developed based on baseline projects and above baseline projects:

a) Baseline projects – annual projects for each department for items such as annualrepairs/maintenance of existing facilities, annual road resurfacing/reconstructionwork.

b) Above Baseline projects – significant capital projects that are new, such as a newrecreational facility, new fleet equipment, and major renovations/reconstructionprojects that are not accommodated through annual repairs/maintenance.

The 10-Year capital forecast was reviewed in conjunction with the anticipated funding increases over the same 10-year period (e.g. tax levy funded capital outlined in the previous section and growth in capital-related reserve fund). Where possible the 10-year capital plan was adjusted to match projected funding. Specifically, the following adjustments were made:

- capital projects were moved to different years based on projected funding; - baseline projects were reduced to accommodate large dollar above baseline projects

in a particular year (e.g. regular repairs and maintenance for a department was reduced in a year where there was also a requirement to construct a new facility that year); and

- projects were split into phases to be funded over several years.

The 2014 year in the 10-year capital projection matches projected funding, however, years beyond 2014 will still be a challenge to fund.

2014 Budget Timelines

In July departments were distributed the 2014 headcount information and were required to returned it to Finance on July 26th, 2013 with any changes or corrections. The Operating and Capital templates were available on our budget software with a final deadline for input to departments was September 4, 2013.

Over a period of three weeks the budgets/budget templates were reviewed by the Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Deputy Treasurer and department Director to obtain an understanding of the budgetary requirements/requests. At these meetings, budget adjustments were discussed based on funding projections and clarifications about the requests, trends, and other factors.

Following all budget adjustments, a consolidated summary was prepared by the Finance Division for review the by the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO), Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Treasurer and Deputy Treasurer to suggest additional strategies for the 2014 Operating Budget and other recommended target reductions.

The 2014 preliminary Operating and Capital Budgets was reviewed by the whole senior management team prior to submission to Council and taxpayer review on October 15th and November 6th. A schedule of the Town’s 2014 Budget process and meetings following Town staff’s internal budget preparation is outlined below:

A Town Council budget workshop was held on October 15, 2013 in the Council Chambers. At this meeting Town staff provided Council with an overview of the capital and operating budgets including unmet needs (new services, additional service levels, and additional staff) recommended to be funded. This information was also provided at an evening Town Hall Budget meeting held on November 6th, 2013. Although all Council workshops and Council meetings are open to the public, the November 6th Town Hall budget was held in the evening to provide all taxpayers an opportunity to attend and provide their comments, ask questions, early in the budget process.

Departmental budget presentations were held on November 18th and 19th, 2013. The final 2014 Town Budget was approved on December 3th, 2013.

Improvements to the 2014 Budget Process

Budget Flyers Prior to the Town Hall Budget Meeting Budget flyers were produced and distributed the week of October 21, 2013 to provide 2014 Town of Caledon budget information to all taxpayers and to inform taxpayers of the budget schedule/upcoming Town Hall Budget meeting.

Feedback from Taxpayers Earlier On in Budget Process A Town Hall Budget meeting was held on November 6th, 2013 for all public questions and input in the budget process in advance of department presentations. In previous years, the Town Hall Budget meeting was held in late November following several Council Budget workshops and following departmental budget presentations.

On November 18 and 19, 2013, Town departments presented more details about their capital and operating budgets.

Council approved the Town’s 2014 Budget at an evening Council meeting scheduled on December 3, 2013.

BUDGET ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES Every employee plays a role in budgeting, whether in its formulation, preparation, implementation, administration or evaluation.

SMT critically evaluates all requests, prioritizes, and submits only those requests which areconsistent with Council policies, the Community Based Strategic Plan, administrativedirection and departmental objectives. Preparation of budget requests, goals and objectivesshould coincide with stated annual goals.

The Treasurer and staff within the Finance Division are responsible for:

Preparing short and long range revenue and expenditure forecasts

Reviewing departmental budgets with SMT and individual departments

Analyzing, summarizing, and making recommendations on the budget requests to theCFO

Reviewing the linkage/consistency/alignment between budget requests and overallbudget goals, Development Charge Background Study, 10-year Capital Plan,department Master Plans and policies

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

BUDGET ACCOUNTING POLICY As in prior years, the Town of Caledon’s 2014 Budget was completed on the fund basis of accounting. However, per Ontario Regulation 284-09, the Town of Caledon must disclose the impact on the 2014 Operating Budget of full accrual accounting adjustments prior to Council adopting the budget. The estimated impact of full accrual accounting on the 2014 Operating Budget figures for items listed below will be disclosed in a report to Council prior to the approval of the 2014 Operating Budget.

Amortization of tangible capital assets Accumulated Surplus/(Deficit) from Operations Revenue – Grants/Other - for Capital Revenue – Interest earned on the debt retirement reserve fund Revenue/Expenditures – Transfer from/to Reserves Expenditures – Interest on Former Caledon Hydro Corporation Debt

The Public Sector Accounting Board’s (PSAB) new financial reporting requirements for the 2009

and future reporting periods incorporates the capitalization of tangible capital assets and amortization expenses in the financials for all Ontario municipalities. For budget purposes, Ontario Regulation 284/09, allows municipalities to exclude TCA amortization from the budget.

The Town of Caledon prepares its budget on a fund accounting basis where capital and operating budgets are balanced. Most municipalities have continued to prepare budgets on the fund accounting basis with additional disclosure requirements, per Ontario Regulations, prior to the approval of the budget. The purpose of this report is to identify the impact of the 2014 fund accounting budget on the Town’s accumulated surplus prepared on the full accrual basis of

accounting.

The following table outlines the high level adjustments made that converts the balanced 2014 Budget prepared on the fund basis of accounting to an estimated $2.3M deficit or reduction to the Town’s accumulated surplus on a full accrual basis (comparable 2012 year-end audited figure = $3.0M surplus under the full accrual basis of accounting):

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

As shown in the table above, amortization, projected at $20.0M, is the main driver of the projected full accrual deficit in for 2014. The amortization is reduced to a deficit of $2.3M by other full accrual adjustments such as the Town’s investment in the Tax Funded Capital program and reserve transfers, such as the repayment of internal debt. The impact of the $2.3M projected deficit is an overall reduction in the Town’s accumulated surplus or an overall reduction in the Town’s net book value of tangible capital assets (e.g. Town’s assets are declining at a faster rate than the Town is contributing for their replacement).

1) Amortization of TCA, per the Town’s 2012 audited financial statements, was $19.5M. It isestimated that 2014 amortization will increase to $20.0M based on: the 2014 proposed capital budget (assumed ½ year of amortization on 2014 tangible

capital assets); annualization of 2013 TCA amortization that was included for ½ the year in 2013; and projections on 2014 amortization for current TCA projects/work-in-progress items still

open from previous years.

2) Since amortization is included in the full accrual budget process, the impact of amortizationis an estimated $20.0M reduction to the Town’s accumulated surplus. However, offsettingamortization is the Town’s tax levy funding of tangible capital assets and TCA funding fromother sources such as deferred revenues and grants.

3) Further reducing the TCA impact on the Town’s accumulated surplus are other adjustmentssuch as: Adjusting for the Town’s 2014 budget transfer to reserves for internal debt repayments

and other transfers, such as the election reserve fund, facility repairs andreplacements. These transfers are considered expenses under the fund accountingbasis but will contribute to a 2014 surplus under the full accrual basis of accounting.

Accounting for interest expense on the external debt, held at the Region of Peel, net ofthe Debt Retirement Fund, also held at the Region of Peel, interest earned.

Overall, the estimated impact of the proposed 2014 Budget is an estimated $2.3M reduction to the Town’s accumulated surplus and in 2013 the projected impact was calculated to be $6.0M deficit.

The year end result for the 2012 Full Accrual accounting surplus was $3.0M increase to the Town’s accumulated surplus. The Town’s projected accumulated surplus at the end of 2014 is as follows:

2012 Beginning Accumulated Surplus $297.1M 2012 Full Accrual Accounting Surplus $3.0M 2012 Ending Accumulated Surplus $300.2M

Projected Impact of 2013 Budget ($6.0M) Projected Impact of 2014 Budget ($2.3M) 2014 Estimated Ending Accumulated Surplus $291.9M

Page 28: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

Overview of Budget Processes and Policies

While the 2014 budget increase to the Town’s tax levy funded capital to $11.5M is an improvement which represents approximately 55% of the projected $20.0M of amortization for the Town in 2014. TCA amortization is an indicator of the amount that should be contributed towards the replacement of existing infrastructure. Although, replacement cost will likely be higher than the TCA amortization, which is based on historical cost, revenues to offset TCA amortization would be a significant contribution to ensuring that a municipality has sufficient funds to repair and replace existing infrastructure.

The Town prepares financial information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for local governments. Revenue and expenditures are recorded using the accrual basis of accounting, meaning they are recognized and recorded in the period which the transaction occurred.

Major Revenue Sources and Trends

Tax Revenue - $48,797,031

This is the largest funding source for the Town of Caledon and funds both operating and capital

expenditures. The funding requirements of the Town are determined through the budget

process and the tax rate is set on these requirements. The tax rate is determined by dividing

the funding requirement by the property assessment base. The assessment base for 2014 is

projected to increase by approximately 1.6%. The estimated projection added to the tax base is

$1.4M of assessment growth which has been allocated to fund the Capital program. The 2014

Operating budget required an additional $2.2M funding to balance the budget. This includes

Urgent Unmet Needs for new services, new service levels or new staffing and additional capital

funding sources.

The Town of Caledon is also responsible for collecting taxes on behalf of the Region of Peel

(upper tier municipal government) and the Board of Education (both Public and Separate).

These amounts are not included in the Town of Caledon tax revenues shown in this document

but are included on the property tax bills sent to the Town of Caledon residents.

Fines and Penalties - $4,792,004

The Provincial Offences Act (POA) allows for the collection of fines for violations under the

Highway Traffic Act and for parking infractions within the Town of Caledon. Corporate Services

charges a 1.25% Late Payment fine on the first day of default of the tax installment due date

and on any remaining balance until paid on the first of each month for all property taxes in

arrears. The fee was opposed to discourage taxpayers from paying late and ensure the Town

has adequate funds to pay the school boards and the Region of Peel when required. The Town

is obligated to make these payments regardless if the taxpayer pays us late. If the Town of

Caledon does not have sufficient cash flow to pay the Region of Peel, school boards, and to pay

for the provision of services, we may have to borrow money in the short-term, which impacts all

taxpayers.

User Fees/Rentals - $12,161,081

This is the second largest revenue source for the Town of Caledon and is reviewed and updated

annually. Each year all departments will adjust their user fees for cost of living increases.

Some examples of user fees include fees charged for recreation programs, facility rentals,

development applications, building permits and licenses. The operating budget is adjusted for

changes to the user fees through the budget process. In conjunction with the adoption of the

budget the fee by-law is also approved by Council on a yearly basis.

Major Revenue Sources and Trends

Transfer from Reserves - $571,444

These transfers are used to fund certain debt payment requirements in the operating budget

and some one time positions approved during the budget process

Interest - $750,500

Interest revenue included in the Operating Budget is not projected to increase in 2014 without

the additional resources of a financial analyst to proactively look at cash management and

investment strategies. Incremental interest earned from higher cash balances in recent years

related to obligatory reserve funds are allocated to those reserve funds and do not impact the

Operating Budget.

Grants - $1,302,594

A significant portion of this revenue comes from the Ontario Municipal Partnership Fund

(OMPF) which is an annual unconditional grant from the Province of Ontario, for assisting rural

communities, to provide services to their citizens. Other large grants received by the Town from

various agencies are for Library services for accessibility purposes; Provincial Offences Act for

bilingual purposes; and recreational grants for programs offered. Trends for grants are difficult

to predict as the programs being offered could be stopped by the originating body at any time.

The Town budgets for grants annually and will adjust based on Federal/Provincial notification of

new grants, grant increases or cancellation/reduction in grant programs.

Sales - $303,580

This type of revenue includes concession and vending machine revenue from all of the Town’s

Recreation Facilities.

Other - $3,088,251

A significant portion of this funding comes from internal charges for work performed for other

departments or divisions within the Corporation of the Town of Caledon. The remainder of this

revenue is from fundraising and other events held in various departments throughout the year.

Town Of Caledon Debt And Long-Term Debt Limit

The Town of Caledon currently has external debt, issued by the upper-tier municipality, the Region of Peel related to capital infrastructure. Provincial limits on municipal debt are set based on a maximum percentage of revenues that may be used to service the debt costs (e.g. interest and principal payments) on an annual basis. In the Province of Ontario, municipalities have the authorization to incur long-term debt for municipal infrastructure as long as annual debt repayments do not exceed 25% of net revenues. The Province provides an annual statement for municipalities known as the Annual Repayment Limit statement, outlining the revenue and debt servicing calculations. The Town of Caledon’s 2012 Annual Repayment Limit statement from the Province states that the Town is utilizing 5.90% of net revenues to service debt. The Town of Caledon’s debt servicing costs, as a percentage of new revenues, are projected not to exceed the provincial annual repayment limit of 25%. In 2011, Town of Caledon Council approved the establishment of the following long-term debt limit for the Town:

The Town may issue long-term debt to a maximum projected debt servicing charges (principal and interest payments) of 10% of net revenues. The Town is also not projected to exceed the 10% of Net revenue limit.

The Town currently has external debt, issued through the Region of Peel, related to: 1. The purchase of hydro assets outside the former Village of Bolton from Ontario Hydro. 2. The completion of the Bolton Arterial Route – Phase 3 on Coleraine Drive. 3. The 2011 Fire Aerial Apparatus purchase. Hydro Debenture (1999) Semi-annual payments of principal and interest for the Hydro debenture are funded from a Debt Retirement Fund, held at the Region of Peel, which was established after the Town subsequently sold the assets to Hydro One. When the Debt Retirement fund was established, projections on the initial investment and interest to be earned indicated that the Debt Retirement Fund would have sufficient funds to meet the semi-annual interest payments and annual principal payments to maturity, December 2019. Due to past and current economic conditions, projections on interest income for the Debt Retirement Fund have been revised downwards in recent years and there is a projected shortfall between the Debt Retirement Fund and the Town’s future debt payments (towards the end of 2016). The Town of Caledon plans to use an existing internal reserve fund that has accumulated sufficient funds to cover the projected 2016-2019 shortfall of approximately $8.4M in the Debt Retirement Fund.

Town Of Caledon Debt And Long-Term Debt Limit

Bolton Arterial Route Debenture (2010) This external debenture was issued in 2010 for the completion of the Bolton Arterial Route (BAR) on Coleraine Drive. The thirty-year, $5.4M debenture issued is known as a “sinker”, where interest payments are made semi-annually and the full amount of the $5.4M principal is due at the end of 30 years. The sinking fund is held and managed by the Region of Peel, for the purposes of extinguishing the debt at maturity. The annual sinking fund contributions and the interest income to be earned on the investments of the sinking fund over 30 years are projected to fully cover the principal payment due at maturity. Fire Aerial Apparatus (2011) In 2011, Council approved additional external debt to be issued, through the Region of Peel, for the purchase of a Fire Aerial truck. The ten-year, $0.6M debenture issued in 2011 is also a “sinker”, described above where interest payments are made semi-annually and the full amount of the $0.6M principal is due at the end of 10 years. The sinking fund is held and managed by the Region of Peel, for the purposes of extinguishing the debt at maturity. The annual sinking fund contributions and the interest income to be earned on 14 the investments of the sinking fund over 10 years are projected to fully cover the principal payment due at maturity. Annual Repayment Limit (ARL) Provincial policy allows municipalities to incur debt charges equivalent to 25 percent of their net revenues without prior approval of the Ontario Municipal Board. On an annual basis, the Province provides each municipality with an Annual Repayment Limit (ARL) statement that outlines the maximum debt charges allowed (25% of net revenues), the debt charges reported, and the remaining debt repayment limit. Further, as part of the 2012 Budget, Council adopted a debt policy where the Town may issue debt to a maximum projected debt servicing charges (principal and interest payments) of 10% of net revenues.

Town Of Caledon Debt And Long-Term Debt Limit

At $3.3M, the Town will be utilizing 5.90% of revenues to service debt. This would leave a maximum repayment limit balance available of 19.10% (=25% - 5.90%) or a maximum of approximately $11.4M of remaining revenues to service debt. Currently, the majority of debt servicing costs relate to the Town of Caledon’s $29M debenture for the purchase of Caledon Hydro. Caledon Hydro was subsequently sold in 2000 and a debt retirement fund was established to offset the debt servicing costs to debt maturity, 2019. In 2012, Council approved a capital project for the replacement of 34 vehicles and equipment. The annual debenture payments were estimated at $640,000 annually for a five year term (2013 to 2017), which is included in the 2013 operating budget. Due to a positive cash flow in the Town’s account the issuance of this debenture was not required however the payment will still remain as part of the base operating budget to repay the capital project over the original 5 year term of the estimated debt.

Reserves are established for a predetermined purpose and are applied at the discretion of Council for that purpose, whereas the Reserve Funds are restricted by statute or by Council discretion. Reserve Funds must be segregated from general revenues but Reserves do not have to be segregated.

I. RESERVES

a) Description:Reserves are an appropriation from net revenue at the discretion of Council, afterthe provision for all known expenditures. It has no reference to any specificasset and does not require the physical segregation of money or assets.Reserves cannot have a revenue or expense of itself.

Reserves and Reserve Funds

Reserve for Working Funds In most municipalities accounts have to be paid before property taxes, grants and other revenues become available, including revenues still to be collected for the previous year.

A municipality can obtain a short-term loan to meet this need, but borrowing incurs interest charges. In order to reduce, and, if possible avoid short-term borrowing, a working fund reserve is one financial management technique that can be helpful. It is also a cash management device to enhance cash flow.

Reserve for Contingencies Such a reserve is established in anticipation of unknown expenditures or liabilities. All contingency reserves will be reviewed and where applicable, establish a consolidation of similar contingency reserves in 2012.

Reserve for Facility Repairs and Restoration This type of a reserve allows for funds to be set aside each year for future building repairs or to help offset major renovations. For example, such a reserve eliminates the need to levy for the full cost of building repairs or renovations in one particular budget year.

As of December 31, 2012, the Town had available the following reserves for operating and capital budget allocation:

i. Reserve for Working Funds: $ 1,299,647.39These funds are available for the entire corporation to enhance and meet cashrequirements of the Town prior to the collection of its current revenues.

iii. Heritage Property: $ 15,525.22To fund Designated Heritage Property Grants that exceed current year’s approvedoperating budget.

iv. Corporate Energy Reserve: $ 60,246.23To continuously leverage external funding for cost effective energy projects.

v. Capital Tax Levy: $1,899,763.68This reserve was created from surplus tax levy funded capital projects and funds setaside from the operating budget for the replacement of aging infrastructure to offset theeffects of annual amortization. This fund also facilitates the year end operating surplusfor future capital expenditures. The fund has been utilized mainly for contingencypurchases.

vi. Equipment Reserve: $ 616,960.57Established to provide future budget contributions for capital equipment replacement.

Reserves and Reserve Funds

Obligatory Reserve Funds

These funds must be created whenever a statute requires revenue received for special purposes to be segregated from the general revenues of the municipality.

Examples of obligatory reserve funds are:

Monies received in lieu of land for park purposes as set out under Subsection 42 (14) and (15) of the Planning Act;

Monies received in lieu of land for park purposes under a subdivision agreement as set out under Subsection 51.1 (5) of the Planning Act;

Reserves and Reserve Funds

Discretionary Reserve Funds

Discretionary reserve funds are created under Section 417 of the Municipal Act, 2001 (S.O. 2001, c.25) and under similar sections in the Regional Municipalities Act, the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto Act, the County of Oxford Act and the District of Muskoka Act. Discretionary reserve funds are established whenever a municipal Council wishes to earmark revenues to finance a future expenditure for which it has the authority to spend money, and set aside a certain portion of the year’s revenues so that the funds are available as required. In accordance with Section 417 of the Municipal Act, 2001 (S.O. 2001, c.25), it is suggested that municipalities create new reserve funds or additional allocations to a reserve fund through the estimates process, defining the purpose for which the reserve fund is being created.

Discretionary reserve funds may be used for a number of different purposes. Some examples of these are:

future expenditures for land acquisition; new buildings and other capital projects; vehicle self insurance; industrial promotion

There are two major advantages to discretionary reserve funds:

i. Similar to a reserve, they help to stabilize the general municipal tax levy. Ina year when a large amount of revenue is required to finance capitalprojects, a previously established discretionary reserve fund can enable amunicipality to spend money without affecting the general municipal levy orthe need to issue debentures.

ii. The assets of the reserve fund can be invested to earn income, thus helpingto reduce the amount of money to be set aside.

As at December 31, 2012, the balances in the following accounts are as follows:

i) Parking Program – Cash in Lieu: $ 162,000This reserve fund has been set up per Council direction to provide funds toaddress parking issues in downtown Bolton.

ii) Bolton Community Improvement Plan (CIP): $ 355,254.32Funds are set aside from unspent CIP grant funds approved in theoperating budget to beautify the Bolton core as part of a financial incentiveprogram. This reserve fund was established for the Bolton CIP for thepurpose of carrying forward unspent Bolton CIP funding at the end of eachfiscal year to future years. The purpose of the CIP grant is to promoteeconomic opportunities and secure investment that supports our strategiceconomic development objectives and activities in order to enhancecommunity prosperity. For example, improvement of the aesthetics of thearea through landscaping, business signage and building facades.

5.0 Department’s Significant Trends and Challenges

Emerging trends and challenges have an immediate and/or long-term impact on the nature of the administrative, operational, and financial aspects of the services provided by the department. An awareness of these trends and challenges allows Town Council and staff to monitor and react to them in order to take advantage of opportunities and minimize impacts so that the Town can continue to provide quality and timely services. The significant trends and challenges for 2014 and beyond are as follows:

Trends

Page 61: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Corporate Services Department

o Tax funded capital funding is still not keeping pace with the capital budget demands and requirement to address the infrastructure deficit. The Town will have to make significant tax-funded contributions to its capital program over the next 10 years in order to meet its share of growth related infrastructure spending, and to address its infrastructure funding deficit on existing assets.

o Assessment growth projections for the short-term indicate higher residential assessment growth due mainly to growth in the Mayfield West area and also due to a “freeze” on non-residential development mandated by the Province of Ontario as part of the province’s study to create an east-west highway corridor through Caledon, known as the GTA West Corridor Study.

o Co-ordination amongst landowners in approved industrial/commercial areas not impacted by the GTA West Corridor Study, such as Tullamore and South Simpson Road areas, to complete required infrastructure and servicing to promote non-residential growth in those areas is unlikely without Town support.

o Interest rates are still at very low levels. o Town will continue to consider debt-financing of tangible capital assets where

appropriate. o The Town’s new financial information system will provide better customer service

and access to timely, accurate and relevant financial information for both internal and external customers.

o The Town will continue to focus on tax arrears. Town’s tax arrears as a percentage of total taxes are in a moderate risk category at just over 10% (end of third quarter 2013). The Town has initiated a proactive collection strategy that considers the current economic climate and is working towards improving the Town’s arrears which improves the Town’s cash flows.

o Move towards mobile computing and mobile applications using hand-held devices (i.e. smartphones or blackberries) to provide faster and more efficient customer service from anywhere. Connectivity challenges in rural areas due to lower populations will continue as mobile carriers focus on higher margin network opportunities.

o Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programs in corporate environments introduce several new information and network security challenges. Personal devices will continue to vary in version of hardware and software making it very challenging for I.T. departments and security technology to keep pace with threats and data security. These personal devices on corporate networks could be storing sensitive organizational information that could be exposed to threats of lost or stolen data, malware, and other attacks from malicious software or persons. Organizations will need to understand and balance the protection of sensitive corporate data with flexibility of devices users may prefer. For smaller I.T. teams, the trend is not to allow BYOD due to the costs and efforts required to manage these security risks.

o Expanding the footprint of wired high speed corporate networks. Most Town facilities are currently connected, but with a mixture of speeds and wired / wireless connections. In order to implement new technologies we should be working towards connecting all Town facilities via a high speed wired network for consistent and secure high speed connections.

o Self Service – providing clients with the ability to serve themselves in areas such as program registration, online forms, general inquiries and service requests to reduce the need for clients to make a trip to Town Hall. The Town’s long term vision should be towards a “My Caledon” portal through which residents and businesses can transact with the Town for a variety of services.

o Cloud Computing – this growing technology allows sourcing of many I.T. services such as computing power and infrastructure, to applications, business processes and collaboration tools as a pay as you go type of service in many cases. The “cloud” can be defined as the set of hardware, networks, storage, services, and interfaces that combine to deliver aspects of computing as a service. The location of the service providers and physical devices where corporate data is stored can be an

Page 62: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Corporate Services Department

issue for many organizations; especially with sensitive corporate data stored in jurisdictions that don’t offer the same levels of recourse if data security is compromised.

o Increasing costs of applications and the supporting infrastructure needed toimplement and maintain modern business systems such as Enterprise Financials,Recreation Programs Management, Development Plan Review and Approvals,Online and Point-of-Sale systems.

o Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) vs. conventional design -incorporates whole building design which is an integrated approach for sustainableenvironments

o Seeing the greater benefit to asset management rather than just financial reportingo Municipalities as a group have experienced an increase in the claims received

(including slip/trip and fall claims and more complicated claims)o Dollar amount of claims is also increasing, including the cost to defend (lawyers,

experts, etc.)o Municipalities are seeing an increase in the number of damage awardso Municipalities are seeing an increase in premiums and deductible limits being raised

to offset insurer’s rising costs

Challenges o Through the Caledon Long-term Strategic Financial Plan, consultation with the

community, Council and Staff, a long-term funding plan has been developed toincrease the tax-funded capital budget each year. The challenge will beaccommodating the property tax increase required for capital with competingoperating budget pressures (e.g. operating costs of new facilities, enhancingservices levels, and possible repayment of long-term debt) in the upcoming years

o Increasing the Town’s tax funded capital program to ensure there are sufficient fundsto repair, replace, maintain existing assets, fund the Town’s share of growth(development charge) related capital infrastructure projects, and to fund the Town’sshare of any future Federal and Provincial infrastructure grant programs

o The 5 Year I.T. Strategic Plan continues to address the technology trends andneeds, however, continued funding and resources are required to keep pace withchanging technology and trends.

o Working with an aging infrastructure and updating long-term departmental assetmanagement plans and development charge studies to provide a long-termapproach to capital budgets.

o Being in a role as a road authority is the largest exposure for municipalities as this iswhere the most catastrophic injuries tend to occur

o Courts are ruling against municipalities in matters concerning Minimum MaintenanceStandards (MMS)

o Increase in damage awards by the courtso Joint & Several liability exposure as shortfalls are being picked up by municipalities

6.0 2014 Departmental Priorities

The Town’s Community Based Strategic Plan (CBSP) identifies the Vision, Goals and Long-Term Strategic Objectives. The achievement of each of these components of the Community Based Strategic Plan is dependent upon the dedication of the Town’s administration and the agencies funded by the Town to focus their activities in this common direction.

For 2014, this department will focus its strategic action and major initiatives onGoal #6 “Provide strong governance and community engagement”.

Other CBSP goals are identified below for specific projects as applicable

5.0 Department’s Significant Trends and Challenges Emerging trends and challenges have an immediate and/or long-term impact on the nature of the administrative, operational, and financial aspects of the services provided by the department. An awareness of these trends and challenges allows Town Council and staff to monitor and react to them in order to take advantage of opportunities and minimize impacts so that the Town can continue to provide quality services. The significant trends and challenges for 2014 and beyond are as follows: GOAL – GROWTH MANAGEMENT Trend The Provincial Growth Plan directs development to be denser and compact in form through more intensification within the built up area and in the designated Greenfield areas (existing & new) and establishes more stringent requirements for settlement boundary expansions. The Province has released Amendment 2 to the Growth Plan, which forecasted an additional growth of 130,000 persons and 10,000 jobs for Peel Region by

Page 80: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business PlanDevelopment Approval & Planning Policy

2031, and a further growth of 200,000 persons and 90,000 jobs for Peel Region between 2031 and 2041.

Challenge The Town has initiated a new round of growth forecasts to 2041 that will contribute to a Region-wide growth distribution. With new growth allocated to the Town by Peel Region, a new round of a conformity exercise will need to be initiated.

Given that both Mississauga and Brampton have used up their Greenfield lands, future Greenfield growth will be primarily in Caledon. Achieving the minimum Greenfield development density of 50 people and jobs combined per hectare will be a challenge for the Town if it continues to attract low density employment.

GOAL – INTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS

Trend The Provincial Growth Plan requires the Region to achieve a Greenfield Density Target of 50 persons and jobs combined per hectare.

Caledon’s low employment density is reflective of the market reality. The Growth Plan requirement to combine population and employment in the Greenfield density calculation forces municipalities to increase residential density to compensate the low employment density. A very high residential density on the urban periphery is inconsistent with the community character of Caledon, and should therefore be corrected in the forthcoming 10-year review of the Growth Plan.

Some recent Provincial legislations, such as the Green Energy and Green Economy Act (2009), the Endangered Species Act (2007), and the Clean Water Act (2006) require considerable municipal participation in policy development and implementation.

A number of other Provincial plans, such the Greenbelt Plan (2006), the Niagara Escarpment Plan (1994), and the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan (2002), will be up for reviewal in the next two years. These plans significantly influence land use planning in the Town of Caledon.

The Bolton GO Rail Services requires constant and significant discussions and collaboration with Metrolinx, CP Rail, the Province, and other affected municipalities. The GTA West Corridor Environmental Assessment requires significant inter-municipal/provincial discussions and collaboration.

Challenge #1 The release of Amendment 2 to the Growth Plan has triggered another round of growth distribution to 2031 and 2041 at both Regional and local Municipal levels.

Challenge #2 Recent Provincial legislations and requirements to comply have resulted in a significant shortage in staff resources needed to participate in policy discussions on emerging issues.

2014 Business Plan

Development Approval & Planning Policy

Challenge #3 Planning staff has been working closely with Toronto and Region Conservation Authority to prepare a Bolton Special Policy Area Plan regarding flooding risks and emergency preparedness in the Bolton core area, as required by Provincial policies. Challenge #4 The preliminary Route Planning Study Area proposed by the GTA West Corridor Environmental Assessment Study intercepts with the Town’s settlement boundary expansion projects for Mayfield West Phase 2 and South Albion-Bolton Employment Lands. Planning staff has had a number of discussions with Ministry of Transportation staff and will continue the dialogue to ensure the Town’s interests are protected.

GOAL – LAND USE PLANNING

Challenge #1 Settlement boundary expansions for Bolton Residential Expansion, Mayfield West Phase 2, and South Albion-Bolton can proceed with applications for a Regional Official Plan Amendment. Planning staff are working diligently on these three projects.

Challenge #2 Council approved a refined study area for the Bolton Residential Expansion Study. All required studies to support a Regional Official Plan Amendment are being undertaken, and planning staff will further consult the public and all concerned parties and individuals to make sure the final proposal meets the Growth Plan and Peel Region Official Plan requirements, and supports the community vision for the new area.

Challenge #3 Existing communities are concerned with new mixed use, high density and intensification proposals. Challenge #4 General increase in the complexity of planning applications due to the applicability of multiple Provincial plans, policies and guidelines. GOAL – BUILDING CHALLENGES Trend The Ontario Building Code is amended on a regular basis to deal with changes affecting society. Items such as energy efficiency, environmental impacts, structural integrity, accessibility, and fire protection, are reviewed by the Province on an annual basis and the relevant changes are incorporated into the Ontario Building Code as amendments. The municipality must ensure that these trends are being enforced during reviews and inspection processes.

2014 Business PlanDevelopment Approval & Planning Policy

Challenge #1 Striving to maintain good customer service internally and externally and still maintaining the regulatory mandatory timelines is an ongoing challenge. Due to qualification requirements in the legislation, many clients have chosen to reduce costs by personally applying for permits instead of hiring professional designers to produce and collect the documents that are necessary to issue the permit. This causes delay in the review process and increased correspondence or meetings to explain the requirements.

Challenge #2 All Building Officials are required to be Qualified and Registered with the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing in their field of expertise. Along with these qualifications, Building Officials are expected to update and maintain their qualifications as the Building Code evolves. Due to code changes effective January 1, 2014, staff may be required to undergo further mandatory training if directed by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing, in order to keep current with any changes to the code. In addition to any code changes, new and innovative construction materials and methods of construction are also evolving. Building Officials must also keep up with the changes in the industry.

Challenge #3 In 2011 the corporate direction was to reassign the building inspections component from Development Approval and Planning Policy - Building and Support Services Section to a newly created section of the Public Works Department - Regulatory Services and located off-site at 6211 Old Church Road. There are certain challenges that face the Department due to the split. Certain regulatory responsibilities under the Ontario Building Code can only be authorized by the Chief Building Official, therefore proper communication and collaboration between both departments is key in making sure there are no disruptions to the service level. Quite often meetings have to be set up between the sections to discuss various matters to decide which section should take the lead. These meetings involve additional staff time to attend. Another challenge is ensuring all staff involved in the Building Code process are adequately trained to meet changes as the Building Code evolves, and monitoring budgets as both cost centres are funded by the Building Permit Revenues.

6.0 2014 Departmental Priorities Funded from the Operating Budget The Town’s Community-Based Strategic Plan (CBSP) identifies the goals and long-term desired outcomes. The achievement of each of these components of the CBSP is dependent upon the dedication of each of the Town’s administration and the agencies funded by the Town, to focus their activities in this common direction.

The strategic action and major initiatives of the department will contribute to all goals of the Community-Based Strategic Plan.

The following is a prioritized list of the 2014 Departmental Priorities that the department intends to undertake with the 2014 Operating Budget requested as part of this Business Plan:

2014 Business Plan Fire & Emergency Services

1.0 Department of Fire & Emergency Services Mission Statement

The mission of the Department of Fire & Emergency Services is to provide a team of highly trained, caring professionals who lead a collaborative effort to provide the community with an efficient emergency and safety system dedicated to protecting and strengthening our community through education, prevention, and rapid intervention at emergencies.

The goal of the Department of Fire & Emergency Services is to provide effective, efficient, safe, professional and prompt fire protection services to the public that we serve.

With a 2013 population of approximately 60,000, the Town of Caledon is a diverse geographic area that covers over 700 square kilometres. Caledon comprises the majority (55%) of the total area in the Region of Peel.

As a growing suburban community in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), Caledon’s roads are heavily-used byways travelled by commuters. Key flight paths and holding patterns for air traffic at Lester B. Pearson International Airport over-fly Caledon daily. The main line of the Canadian Pacific Railway and a private rail corridor from Brampton to Orangeville passes through the community. Hazardous materials are routinely manufactured, stored, shipped and transported through Caledon daily (i.e. main routes for transporting radioactive material to and from the Bruce nuclear power generating station). Combined with imminent residential, commercial and industrial growth, these factors are indicative of the constantly increasing fire, rescue and emergency medical risks faced by the community.

In response to this increased demand for service and in order to ensure the timely delivery of emergency services, the Town of Caledon is divided into nine emergency response areas using a fleet of twenty-eight (28) heavy fire apparatus plus a Command Post. The Fire Protection and Prevention Act requires each fire department to meet the local needs and circumstances of the municipality. The Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act requires each municipality to have an adequate emergency response capability. In the event of a major emergency – or simultaneous emergency incidents – mutual aid may be provided by fire departments from Adjala-Tosorontio, Brampton, Erin, New Tecumseth, Orangeville or King Fire Departments. These municipalities are not required to assist Caledon and may decline due to their own emergency needs.

5.0 Department’s - Significant Trends and Challenges

Emerging trends and challenges have an immediate and/or long-term impact on the nature of the administrative, operational, and financial aspects of the services provided by the department. An awareness of these trends and challenges allows Town Council and staff to monitor and react to them in order to take advantage of opportunities and minimize impacts so that the Town can continue to provide quality fire protection services. The significant trends and challenges for 2013 and beyond are as follows: Fire and Emergency Management Training Trends These fields continue to evolve as do customer expectations. As

expectations change or increase, additional training is required in both fields in order to meet the needs of the community. The department responds to all hazardous emergency incidents in the community. Firefighters must be proficient and competent in modern firefighting operations, rescue and disentanglement practices, emergency medical care as well as Community Emergency Management Response Programs designed to protect the community from natural, man-made and deliberate acts that may threaten the community.

The modern Company Officer has a statutory obligation to be able to

supervise all-hazards incidents well beyond the scope of traditional fire operations. Recent examples include a propane explosion, forest fire, mid-air collision, community flooding, multi-casualty bus accident, high level rescue and influenza pandemic response.

These required skill sets are constantly evolving and present challenges from

initial training programs delivery through maintenance and development from basic to advanced levels. Initial training must be supported with programs and assets that not only maintain through drill but also develop to higher, more advanced proficiencies.

Challenges Many Caledon volunteer firefighters (VFF) are already making themselves

available to the community as much as possible. Many members have limited time available to maintain current training or participate in additional training for other skill sets. This can result in an inability to meet corporate or community needs. When a station response is unable or insufficient to

Page 104: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Fire & Emergency Services

deliver the required level of service, a neighbouring station or administrative staff is required to respond.

This could translate into a delay in the provision of service including rescue and medical care and increased civil liability for the corporation and Council. It also takes staff away from other core functions. We need to continue to find ways of lessening the burden on volunteer firefighters yet still meet the needs of the community. This can be addressed, in part by increasing the compliment of volunteer firefighters and adjusting response areas.

The lack of a fire training facility in or even in close proximity to Caledon islogistically problematic and at times cost prohibitive. The lack of an availabletraining facility restricts our ability to comply with even the minimum trainingrequirements, the maintenance of skill sets and developmental needs forCaledon firefighters. Over the past thirty months many VFF have expressedtheir increased frustration about the amount of their personal time that isbeing wasted travelling to and from out of town training sites. The plannedfuture construction of large and high buildings in Caledon compounds thetraining challenges as the department embarks on additional training to meetthe minimum requirements of the Occupational Health & Safety Act.

Emergency Operations and Fire Suppression

Trends The number of fires has stabilized but the intensity of fires and the value of

the losses continues to increase. The number of emergency medical incidents has stabilized due to improved

incident triage by the Central Ambulance Communications Centre(Mississauga).

The number of complex incidents such as hazardous materials incidents andindustrial and agricultural rescues continues to increase.

Daytime availability continues to be a challenge for volunteer emergencyresponses throughout the Caledon community, requiring Caledon to drawupon neighbouring resources on an occasional basis.

The fleet continues to age. This impacts staffing, equipment available on siteand pumping capacity which in turn impacts fire insurance premiums andpotential liability for the municipality.

Challenges Staffing

Operational Planning: an Official Guide to Matching Resource and RiskPFSG 04—08-10 (Ontario, Office of the Fire Marshal) replaces PFSG 04-08-12 and is expected to increase the number of firefighters required forstructural firefighting in Ontario.

The previous staffing expectations were frequently unmet in Caledon and it is doubtful that the new expectations will be met, particularly during normal business hours when most VFF are at work.

Page 105: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Fire & Emergency Services

Emergency Response Times and Incident Staffing Caledon Fire & Emergency Services continues to receive exceptional support from the community and a high degree of user satisfaction. Having said that, we must continue to strive to improve our service level. Although our response times have improved over the last year we must continue to try and improve these response times. Aggressively recruiting volunteers who are available during the day time working hours is one way to address this issue along with supporting our existing volunteers. This situation continues to be monitored with respect to community safety, firefighter safety, risk management and liability.

Mutual Aid System In order for the Fire & Emergency Services Department to participate in a Mutual Aid System in Ontario, the department must be able to demonstrate that it is able to meet the day-to-day fire protection needs. Our neighbouring fire departments are all operating at minimum staffing, particularly during the business day. This creates challenges for all area fire departments when dealing with major incidents.

Fire Station Location and Size (Bolton)

The location and size of the Bolton Fire Station is no longer effective and is hindering the delivery of effective fire protection in and around the Bolton Fire District. The station was built for another time, for fewer firefighters, fewer and smaller apparatus and a lesser service level. There is insufficient space for staff, equipment and training. The station can no longer house the fire apparatus required to service the Bolton Fire District. It is difficult for volunteer firefighters to get to the Bolton Fire Station and it is difficult for fire apparatus to get out of the core of Bolton. These difficulties translate into time that is being lost on travel rather than response. In order to improve upon the current level of service and emergency incident response time, Council must continue to move forward with plans to replace the Bolton Fire Station during the 2014 budget deliberations.

Fleet

The Fire fleet consists of 28 heavy fire apparatus, 1 Command Post and 9 command/administrative/support vehicles. Heavy apparatus has a service life of twenty years; fourteen years in front line service and six years in reserve. Three heavy apparatus must be replaced every two years in order to maintain the existing apparatus service life. One command/administrative/ support vehicle must also be purchased annually in order to maintain the existing vehicle service life of eight years. The Command Post should also be replaced within the next couple of years as it is approaching its useful life cycle.

2014 Business Plan Fire & Emergency Services

Fire Prevention & Public Education

Trends the ability to determine the origin and cause of fires continues to improve the frequency of smoke alarm operation in the event of fire has improved the number of inspections, re-inspections and prosecutions has increased implemented a fire safety education program for all Caledon schools using

the Fire Safety Trailer provide fire safety education using the Fire Safety Trailer to citizens groups

and at community events

Challenges in many cases the willingness of property owners to follow simple safety

practices is very low ongoing plan reviews, occupancy inspections and site visit requirements

continue to surpass the staff available ongoing Fire Code retrofit requirements for existing buildings sufficient staffing to complete required legislated inspections upon request or

complaint.

Recent legislation: Federal Marijuana Medical Access Regulation (Legalized Grow-ops)

increased requirements of fire inspections Ontario Regulation 440/08 amendment to Ontario Regulation 211/01 Propane

Storage AND Handling; ongoing routine fire inspections and approval of Riskand Safety Management Plans

Retirement Homes Act, 2010; require routine fire inspections Ontario Regulation 150/13 Fire Code Section 9.7 Buildings with a Care

Occupancy or Retirement Home; require routine fire inspections, training andfire drill assessment

Community Emergency Management Program

Trends The number of major or complex incidents continues to increase. In a growing number of cases the line between fire or rescue operations and potential community emergencies is becoming blurred. Over the past two years Caledon has been placed on “Standby” through Emergency Management Ontario to prepare to deploy municipal resources to other communities or to receive evacuees from other communities.

Challenges In order to ensure community safety, continuity of operations and confidence in government the following issues need to be addressed;

Senior Management Team members must continue to be assigned toemergency management training at the Regional level

Senior Fire & Emergency Services personnel must be assigned to advancedemergency management training at the Regional and Provincial level

Page 107: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Fire & Emergency Services

The Community Emergency Response Plan and the Pandemic Plan must be revised annually or sooner if required.

As the statutory nature of this program continues to evolve a permanent part-time (PPT) position will be required in order to ensure compliance with the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act.

6.0 2014 Departmental Priorities Funded from the Operating Budget

The Fire & Emergency Services 2014 Work Plan includes a number of Goals and Outcomes. The achievement of each of these components of the Fire & Emergency Services 2014 Work Plan will ensure that the municipality remains in compliance with the minimum requirements of the Fire Protection and Prevention Act and related Public Fire Safety Guidelines, the Occupational Health & Safety Act and the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act. For 2014, the Department of Fire & Emergency Services will focus its strategic action and major initiatives, pending budget approval, on the following goals: Maintain a fire safe community Respond to requests for emergency assistance and mutual aid in an

effective, efficient, safe and professional manner Maintain or reduce the average emergency response time of 8.17 minutes for

the first fire company Respond to requests for and deliver Public Education Programs and

4.0 Achievements in 2013

The Human Resources Department made significant progress in 2013 in a number of key areas.

Recruitment, Selection & Orientation The launch of the external applicant tracking system was an impetus to improving both processes and documentation in the recruitment process. Job descriptions were reformatted and updated for all postings, ensuring consistency. Metrics were introduced to track recruitment activity and “time-to-hire”. Human Resources also worked in partnership with Corporate Communications to explore the possibility of our entrance into the use of social media for recruitment purposes.

Talent Management and Development To meet the challenges as identified in the talent management domain, HR developed and launched a succession planning process with the Senior Management Team (SMT). This was the first phase in an overall corporate-wide talent management program, with subsequent phases focusing on assessing the skills benchstrength of all Town staff and the provision of development opportunities. Succession planning is viewed as a dynamic process and will be undertaken on an annual basis.

Page 135: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Human Resources Department

Human Resources Efficiency and Effectiveness Efforts were dedicated to increasing the use of technology to improve efficiency and effectiveness of HR administration. Introducing an on-line applicant tracking system for new hires and leveraging the capabilities of the Human Resources Information system (HRIS) provided a solid foundation on which to base additional improvements. An increased focus on data validation and data management ensured the integrity of the HRIS and information in employee files.

5.0 Department’s Significant Trends and Challenges

Emerging trends and challenges have an immediate and/or long-term impact on the nature of the administrative, operational, and financial aspects of the services provided by the department. An awareness of these trends and challenges allows staff to monitor and react in order to take advantage of opportunities and minimize impacts enabling the Town to provide quality services. The significant trends and challenges for 2014 and beyond are highlighted as follows:

Trend Recruitment and Retention To be competitive, the Town of Caledon needs to attract and retain competent staff by encouraging, rewarding and promoting the value, importance, and benefits of employment within the Town. Managers and supervisors would benefit from the use of formal assessment tools to assist them in selecting the right candidate for their position vacancies, and in managing the employee’s progress and development going forward.

Challenge Adequate resourcing continues to be a challenge. While the use of contract employees has been beneficial in meeting cyclical operational requirements, this is not a sustainable solution for those areas requiring additional resourcing. Commitment to full-time resourcing would enable a wider source of candidates due to full-time employment opportunities.

Trend Succession Planning Demographic statistics show that currently, approximately 21% of our permanent staff are over the age of 55 and that by the year 2015, this number will increase to 30%. As staff retire, critical information and expertise exits with them. Losing this knowledge and their skills leaves the corporation vulnerable. Our introduction of a formalized succession planning process is well underway and will require continued focus and renewal to be most effective.

Challenge Career Development and Advancement Opportunities Opportunities for professional development and advancement are critical success factors for many employees. Employees need to have a self-awareness

Page 137: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Human Resources Department

of their key behavioural competencies. We need to rigorously manage performance, increase skill levels in our staff, and provide key learning opportunities, while continuing to evolve our talent management strategies to reflect the current and future needs of the Town. Challenge Competitive Compensation & Benefits As we compete for talent with neighbouring municipalities, the Town must provide a competitive compensation and benefit program, promoting the overall “total compensation” philosophy and positive and vibrant workplace environment. Challenge Thriving environment Employee engagement is key to cultivating and sustaining a thriving and vibrant work environment. Employees’ values, goals and aspirations need to be aligned with those of the organization. Ongoing communication and employee involvement in programs, initiatives and solutions will support this environment.

6.0 2014 Departmental Priorities Funded from the Operating Budget

The Town’s Community Based Strategic Plan (CBSP) identifies the Goals and Long-Term Desired Outcomes. The achievement of each of these components of the CBSP is dependent upon the dedication of the Town’s administration and the agencies funded by the Town to focus their activities in this common direction. The following is a prioritized list of the 2014 Departmental Priorities that the department intends to undertake with the 2014 Operating Budget requested as part of this Business Plan:

5.0 Department’s Significant Trends and Challenges

Emerging trends and challenges have an immediate and/or long-term impact on the nature of the administrative, operational, and financial aspects of the services provided by the Library. An awareness of these trends and challenges allows Town Council and staff to monitor and react to them in order to take advantage of opportunities and minimize impacts so that the Town can continue to provide quality services. The significant trends and challenges for 2014 and beyond are as follows:

In 2010, the Library’s business plan said, “The library’s explosive growth tests its ability to respond effectively. Most of the facilities, staff complements and collections were built with slower growth pattern in mind. As a result, all three components are tested and sometimes found wanting.” Council agreed with the Library Board and addressed this by funding increased hours across the system. This year, elements of the library’s funding were reduced. For the most part, those reductions were able to be integrated into the Library’s service pattern without an obvious effect on the service that residents of Caledon saw. Nevertheless, the first quarter of the year showed a decrease in the circulation of

Page 145: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Caledon Public Library

library materials. In the second quarter, circulation is recovering. We believe that one of the factors in that recovery is an increase in the number of programs that we are presenting to families. The summer in particular has been a time that the Library has concentrated its efforts on providing a wide range of family programs. The Board is recommending an increase in the programming staff for 2014 so that the increased hours are more fully used.

The Library’s Strategic Plan, aligned with the Town’s Community Based Strategic Plan, addresses the changing character of Caledon and the changing service patterns that it will require. One of the demographic groups that has historically been underserved in the community and by the library has been teens. It is challenging to make services available to that group effectively without dedicated resources. This budget addresses that urgent unmet need. Technology continues to be a source of pervasive change in the delivery of library services. Customers expect the library to be an effective interpreter of the resources they can find electronically, both on the open internet and on back-channels like the for-pay databases that are available through the library. They expect the library to help them find the masses of stuff that exists outside the realm of Google and Wikipedia. They also expect the library to make more of its resources available in forms like e-books and electronic audio files. The library has made a wide range of newspapers and magazines – some of which exist behind paywalls – freely available to residents of Caledon. It also opens opportunities of on-line community building and cultural collaboration.

2014 Business Plan Caledon Public Library

The Library has been active in its efforts to collaborate with the Town and organizations in the Town in achieving important goals. We have collaborated in the promotion of the PanAm Games and been active participants in services like Caledon Day and the Town’s environmental initiatives. We are circulating passes to the Region of Peel Archives and Museum. We’re proud to be working with the Memory Project to be sure that veterans from Caledon have the opportunity to be part of the oral history of World War II and the Korean Conflict that is being developed.

5.0 Significant Trends and Challenges

Emerging trends and challenges have an immediate and/or long-term impact on the nature of the administrative, operational, and financial aspects of the services provided by the department. An awareness of these trends and challenges allows Town Council and staff to monitor and react to them in order to take advantage of opportunities and minimize impact enabling the Town to continue to provide quality services. The significant trends and challenges for 2014 and beyond are as follows: Recreation Division

Trends o Increased need for fully accessible direct program opportunities throughout

the municipality o Increasingly complex regulatory environment o Increased interest in unstructured programs and drop-in opportunities for

youth and seniors o Increasing trend towards multi-use facility development o Web-based registration o Increased focus on youth and adult programs o Lower enrollment of children in organized sports o Greater demand for local solutions to community issues o Greater demand for customer service excellence and quality program

delivery o Increased demand for active seniors programming as the population ages o Increased demand for accessible health, wellness and rehabilitation services

Challenges o Aging facilities and equipment o Pent-up demand for facilities and programs create frustration in the growing

community when the department cannot respond immediately to community “wants and needs”

o Community groups require significant time demand of very limited Parks staff resources

Page 160: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Parks & Recreation Department

o Patrons’ personal time constraints and location are often a barrier toparticipation

o Engage sedentary residents to participate in activities that result in health andwellness benefits

o Balancing service provision between local neighbourhood service and town-wide recreation initiatives

o Competition from private industry – at times within our own facilities (i.e.private fitness classes)

o Recruitment of part-time staff within the Town of Caledon with the skills,availability, etc. to perform the various jobs.

o Necessary resources and support to operate 355 days per year, i.e. a 7 X 20department operation, often at times when other Town departments andsupport services are not operating

o Maintaining service levels and meeting Council and community expectationswith a lean staff complement

o Additional facilities will also require increases in the operational costs of thosefacilities

o Effective communication and marketing techniques which engage all Caledonresidents regardless of geographic location

o Balancing the need to operate sustainable facilities and programs with theincreasing public demand for accessible, inclusive and affordable programopportunities.

Parks DivisionTrendso A higher service level expected for streetscape implementation and

maintenance throughout all villages and communities in Caledon. Caledon israther unique because it is comprised of several small downtowns whereasmany other municipalities have one downtown to implement and maintain.Past practice in Caledon has been to put streetscape implementation andmaintenance responsibilities on the community.

o A large number of community representation groups are emerging. Thereare public interest groups emerging for every community in Caledon. Manyof the community improvement issues these groups are focused on revolvearound services offered by the Parks Operations Division of the Parks andRecreation Department.

o Emerging need to provide a wide range of outdoor recreational opportunitiesfor a diverse age range. There are emerging trends of what was onceconsidered extreme sports becoming mainstream sports such as BMXcycling and skateboarding.

o There is an emerging trend of Conservation Authorities acquiring largeparcels of land for conservation purposes with expectations that themunicipality will manage the lands for more accessible public use such astrail development.

o The existing outdoor sport groups in Caledon are requesting higher servicelevels and higher quality facilities to promote a higher level of sport ability.

o Future development and population growth will require facilities to meet theneeds of an expanding population. The Parks and Recreation Master planhas made several recommendations for quantity of outdoor facilities requiredper capita. The Town of Caledon will need to fund facility constructionaccordingly.

Page 161: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Parks & Recreation Department

o Future development and population growth will require a significant increase in the length of sidewalk requiring winter maintenance. The Town of Caledon will need to fund the resources necessary to maintain those sidewalks to minimum maintenance service levels.

Challenges o There seems to be changing and increased pressure being put on Parks staff

resources to design, implement and maintain streetscape amenities. A higher level of staff and funding resources will be required to implement and maintain this increased service level.

o Community groups require significant time demand of very limited Parks staff resources.

o Ability to fund infrastructure to address emerging trends such as extreme sports facilities.

o The development of Mayfield West with significant park and trail developments will require increased staff and funding resources for park, trail, streetscape and sidewalk winter maintenance operations beyond the year 2013.

o There are limited staff and facility resources available to meet increased demands. The Town of Caledon will either need to provide resources to meet these demands or decide whether a higher level of sport is part of the recreational business plan in which the municipality wants to participate. These issues will be addressed through the Parks & Recreation Master Plan implementation process.

o Additional facilities will also require increases for the operational costs of those facilities

o Additional funding for increased sidewalk inventory due to growth o Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) will require significant resources to mitigate,

remove and replace Town trees infested with EAB. o Accessibility requirements will require significant resources to address

accessibility deficiencies in Parks in accordance with the accessibility audit reports.

Road Services The primary influence driving service levels for Public Works is Regulation 239/02, of the Municipal Act, Minimum Maintenance Standards.

o The minimum maintenance standards were developed to provide municipalities with a defense against liability from actions arising with regard to levels of care on roads and bridges. The regulation provides minimum standards for activities like road patrol, pothole repairs, pavement edge repairs, shoulder repairs, winter condition responses, etc.

o There are other influences, which dictate minimum standards; civil actions have set precedent on service levels standards for illumination, signage, pavement markings, speed limits, stop sign use, etc. To manage risk, Public Works uses the guidelines described in manuals published by the Ministry of Transportation such as the Traffic Control Manuals and the Geometric Design Guidelines for Ontario Highways, which describe the minimum physical configuration of roadways and bridges.

Department 5.0 Department’s Significant Trends and Challenges

Emerging trends and challenges have an immediate and/or long-term impact on the nature of the administrative, operational, and financial aspects of the services provided by the department. An awareness of these trends and challenges allows Town Council and staff to monitor and react to them in order to take advantage of opportunities and minimize impacts so that the Town can continue to provide quality services. The significant trends and challenges for 2014 and beyond are as follows:

Caledon is one of the development “frontiers” in Southern Ontario as the pressures of growth in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), of which Caledon is a part, spread further north. Such growth combined with the evolution toward the “green economy” will underscore Public Works’ immediate and long-term service challenges. Trends Population growth will drive development and service needs.

The community’s desire, as described in its Community-Based Strategic Plan, to evolve Caledon based on moderate managed growth, will help Public Works adapt

Page 192: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Public Works and Engineering Department

its services. But, after a decade of under-staffing and resourcing Public Works has some catching up to do to meet the anticipated growth demands and the imperative of responsible land development. The rebuilding of the department started in 2014.

Population demographics will require enhancements in amenities and services. With a more culturally diverse population, Public Works staff will need to expand their understanding of and ability to communicate and work with people having different worldviews.

The community will want to be more engaged in making Caledon a better place in which to live, work and visit. o The younger generation of residents will want technology to facilitate their

engagement. This means better access to information for all concerned viatechnology and other communication means.

o Since collaboration and partnering will become more necessary in aconstrained resources environment, Public Works staff being skilled facilitatorsand agents of change will be as important as their functional expertise.

Advanced technologies for all aspects of Public Works’ services will be a necessity for optimizing the utilization of resources. GPS systems, better-integrated management systems and new communication technologies such as social media remote access tools for front line staff will enable Public Works to better serve the growing service needs of Caledon’s citizens, workers and visitors.

Caledon’s vision to be “a safe, green community of communities” means sustainable design. o Caledon is home to four conservation authorities, the Oak Ridges Moraine and

a significant part of Ontario’s designated Green Belt. Development growth willbe tempered by the need to protect the Town’s biodiversity, water quality,rivers and streams. With climate change a reality, sustainable design will beessential to build community resilience in the face of unexpected lifestyledisruptions.

o With public safety at the forefront and “greening” as a major sustainabilityforce, Public Works has experienced increased legislative requirements forminimum maintenance and development. Due to this, current staff workloadhas significantly increased. Workload issues will continue to increase in theforeseeable future.

o The value and beauty of rural life versus the contribution of urban life to theprosperity and diversity of Caledon will have to be managed and maintainedcarefully.Tighter regulations are likely. Public Works will need to partner more with otherdepartments and stakeholders to achieve improved development standards andself-sustaining systems for servicing residents and industries. Greater consultationwith developers to build sustainable infrastructure balanced by streamlined approvalprocesses will become a more important part of Public Works way of doingbusiness. These challenges provide a compass for the new skills and strategicgoals the Public Works and Engineering Department will pursue.

2014 Business Plan Public Works and Engineering Department

Regulatory Services Trends The amount of contracting equipment and materials being stored on agriculture

property has increased, contravening the Zoning By-law. This may in part, be attributed to the slowdown of the economy, which results in contractors storing equipment at home as opposed to leasing space in industrial zones.

There are increases in the numbers of Property Standards complaints throughout Caledon. Having a Clean Yards bylaw should allow expeditious compliance results on some of these matters.

Demand for fill sites to accommodate the development of the GTA. Caledon will continue to be targeted for illegal fill activities.

Increased requirements of energy efficiency in the Ontario Building Code that will result in additional inspections and resource time to ensure compliance.

Challenges Developing processes and protocols for consistency and transparency as well as

the need for enhanced training on evidence collection to support improved prosecution briefs.

Providing services after regular hours and during weekends. Development of a septic maintenance program mandated to be implemented by

2015. Engineering Services

Trends Decrease in the quality of the Town’s infrastructure due to aging, higher demand

(more traffic), and limited funding and staff resources for the upkeep and renewal and growth of the infrastructure. A major 2014 priority is to seek enhanced funding to address this continuing trend with a strategic investment approach to debenture financing.

Movement to sustainable and low impact infrastructure design. Increased traffic calming demands and need for safe active transportation on Town

roads.

Challenges How to move towards sustainable life-cycle funding for infrastructure maintained by

the Public Works & Engineering Department. Development of Environmentally and Financially Sustainable Infrastructure without

increasing capital and operational costs. Increased demand on the uses in rural right of ways, vehicular traffic, utilities, storm

water ditches, shoulders, stable slopes, roadside vegetation and now the demand for passive transportation users is putting pressure on the standard 20m ROW. There is insufficient width in the ROW to accommodate all the users.

Addressing traffic behaviour problems with solutions that are affordable, effective and do not interfere with Emergency Service’s response times.

2014 Business Plan Public Works and Engineering Department

Operations Road Services

Trends Need to increase innovative solutions to protect the environment while maintaining

roadway safety. Increased civil actions for road related conditions Storm sewer system failures are becoming more commonplace. Proposed Storm

Water Management Master Plan studies will provide the framework for addressing all maintenance, replacement and monitoring needs for the coming years out to 2031

Road conditions becoming difficult to maintain as the Overall Condition Index (OCI) of the Town’s roads and structures continues to decline as indicated above. Proposed enhanced road funding strategy will begin to effectively address this issue.

Challenges Maintaining infrastructure at the mandated service levels while meeting Council’s

and ratepayers’ expectations within budgetary constraints. Maintaining and fostering a healthy, committed and capable workforce. Managing new infrastructure within the Town to sustain services resulting from

growth. Promoting environmental protection and stewardship through the programs. Effectively communicating and marketing department programs and services. Strategically planning and managing work throughout the department. Providing innovative, efficient and effective services.

Fleet Services

Trends Growing pressures to manage existing and new fleet to assure sustained service

levels and accommodate growth within the Town Need to decrease environmental impacts of the fleet by reducing its carbon footprint Need to improve strategic replacement plan and manage work demands Change in technologies that provide innovative, efficient and effective tools to

provide improved service levels Increasing demands on the use of Bio-diesel fuel and emission reduction catalysts

such as hybrid vehicles will be expanded to continue to reduce GHG fleet emissions

Challenges To fund a fleet replacement program at sustainable levels. The fleet, valued at over

$11,000,000 requires on average $1,000,000 of replacement per year (not including fire trucks). Although there was an influx of $3M to the fleet in 2012, there will be a need in the near future to address sustainable funding levels to properly replace the fleet so that staff have reliable and safe equipment as mandated by the Highway Traffic Act (HTA). Moving to an activity based budget format will allow the means to implement an equipment reserve fund that is sustainable while providing the true cost of all Public Works activities

Page 195: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

2014 Business Plan Public Works and Engineering Department

Keeping up with the demands of the mandated service records to assure compliance with HTA, Commercial Vehicle Operators Registration and Work Place Safety requirements.

Growing demands to train staff on technology trends to improve accessibility of manufacturer information and diagnostic tools for fleet repairs.

Energy and Environment Trends The Green Energy & Green Economy Act (GEGEA) has led to provincial regulations

in municipal energy management. The Municipal Energy Conservation Plan criteria have been announced. Further revisions to the feed-in-tarrif (FIT) program provides municipalities with additional powers and opportunities. The Water Opportunities Act continues to evolve and will likely have many of the same attributes as the GEGEA but with a focus on water conservation.

Many municipalities are developing sustainability plans (i.e. Integrated Community Sustainability Plans) that encompass both the corporation and the community. These plans take a triple bottom line approach which considers the environment, social and cultural, and economic concerns.

Climate change mitigation and adaption, with particular emphasis on adaptation, has become a topic of increased focus at the community level.

There is an increasing expectation by the community that municipalities play a greater role in encouraging positive environmental behaviours at a community level.

The fact that there are an increasing number of emerging trends within the environmental and energy field can be considered a trend itself. Staying on top of these trends and determining which one may be advantageous to the Town is a continual challenge.

Facilities

Project Management Trends Facilities are increasingly being designed to a much higher standard for

sustainability; currently the Town is building new buildings and all major renovations to the LEED Silver standard through the Town’s Green Building Standard. It is expected that the standards will change rapidly as technologies and best practices are updated. It is imperative that the Project Managers continue to keep updated to new trends, technologies and processes as they emerge.

With the increase in growth at the Town it is anticipated that there will be some major renovations at Town facilities as well as new buildings, including an expansion at Town Hall to include a criminal court, a new unified Public Works Yard, rehabilitating old Public Works Yards, a new Bolton Fire Hall, etc.

2014 Business Plan Public Works and Engineering Department

Facility Operations

Trends The historical buildings are currently underutilized or not used at all; a community

plan is required for each facility including public participation, community needs, structural and mechanical requirements.

Reduce energy consumption in all Town facilities. Town Hall specifically has been targeted though Race to Reduce and Mayor Megawatt Challenge to reduce energy consumption to 20 ekW / sq ft. Currently Town Hall is at 31 ekW / sq ft.

Challenges o The Town currently does not have a comprehensive work order and preventative

maintenance program for facilities. A new program needs to be implemented thatwill assist with long term facility planning and modification to the current system toincorporate predictive planning as well as maximizing capital, operating andpersonnel resources

MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR Caledon’s Community‐Based Strategic Plan presents your vision for the Town’s future; a foundation for Caledon’s continued success through the next decade. 

Input from residents across the community was fundamental in creating this Strategic Plan as workshops, youth contests, questionnaires and “places and spaces” conversations engaged residents, businesses and other key stakeholders in charting our Town’s course for the next ten years.  Our Community‐Based Strategic Plan is truly a reflection of the aspirations you hold for your neighbourhoods and your town. 

On behalf of Members of Council and staff, our thanks to everyone who helped shape this document and, in turn, contributed to Caledon’s promising future.  

1 OUR VISION Caledon  –  a  safe,  green  community  of  communities;  desiring  a  sustainable  future  by managing and fostering community progress while respecting its heritage.

2 INTRODUCTIONTo be a strategic  thinking, participatory organization, a Community‐Based Strategic Plan (CBSP) is essential. In  2009,  Caledon  Council  embraced  the  idea  of  the need  for  a  long‐term  community  and  corporate strategy.  In  order  to  develop  a  comprehensive, robust,  implementable  community  and  corporate strategy, the Town decided that a “community based” Strategic  Plan  was  the  preferred  approach,  which engages the entire community: residents, businesses, the  corporation  and  other  stakeholders  and interested members of the public.    

This  plan  provides  the  foundation  for  Caledon’s sustainable  and  vibrant  future which was developed through  a  collaborative,  community  engagement process  which  identifies  a  community  vision,  and goals and objectives to guide the Town 10 years  into the  future.    The  CBSP  impacts  all  Town  of  Caledon residents, workers and business owners – all of whom helped to develop this plan. 

2.1 Purpose of the Community­Based Strategic Plan 

The Community‐Based Strategic Plan  is an  important management  tool  that strategically guides Caledon’s policies,  plans  and  engages  the  larger  community. The  purpose  of  the  CBSP  is  to  ensure  Caledon’s growth  is  managed  responsibly.    The  CBSP  also ensures Caledon  is  responsive  to, and prepared  for, existing and emerging contextual realities, challenges and  opportunities  such  as  increasing  growth pressures, an aging population, an  influx of younger families and the needs and desires of the community. 

The  CBSP  identifies  a  collective  multi‐generational vision for the community. Using the vision as a guide, goals  and  strategic  objectives  are  developed  and become  the blueprint  for managing change over the next  10  years.  This  ensures  Caledon  will  remain  a beautiful,  safe,  sustainable,  well  managed  and prosperous community. 

2.2 Developing the Community­Based Strategic Plan  

Extensive community consultation was undertaken as part  of  the  CBSP  development  process  including workshops,  places  and  spaces  conversations,  staff meetings,  a  youth  contest  and  distribution  of community  questionnaires.    The  following summarizes  the  public  consultation  activities  during the CBSP development process:

• Building Services• Fleet Operations

6.2 Staff will investigate whether any additional current or new services should be included as “User Rate Supported” services.

6.3 For all other services, user fees will be considered by the Town where:

• The member of the public has a choice as to the extent to whichhe/she uses the service.

Page 249: ANNUAL BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2014 · 2015-01-08 · Corporate Services Development Approval & Planning Policy ... The Greater Toronto Airports Authority operates Toronto Pearson International

Town of Caledon Appendix B Long-Term Strategic Financial Plan – September 2009

• It is administratively feasible to collect the charge at a reasonable

cost. • The benefits can be quantified and attributed to the user.

6.4 Staff will prepare a report(s) for consideration by Council that will establish a baseline for the user fees. The report(s) will include the following:

• Identify and document the business units involved in the program

or service. • Identify the full costs of the program or service as permitted under

legislation. • Identity the ways that fees are currently set and the extent that

they recover the cost of the program or service provided. • Establish a rationale, targets and timing for the proportion of the

cost that will be recovered from user fees and which costs will be recovered from property taxes.

6.5 The user fees structure will be sensitive to the “market” for similar

services and in setting user fees, the Town will consider fees charged by other agencies or municipalities providing similar services. However, user fees surveys shall not be the sole or primary criteria in setting Town user fees.

6.6 The Town will strive to increase user fees as a percentage of overall

funding by identifying new areas where user fees can be implemented and by ensuring that existing fees are updated based on increases in the associated costs to provide the service.

adequacy and a report, for consideration by Council, will be prepared highlighting the target balances compared with the existing balance and reserve projections. Reserve Funds will be classified as follows:

• Mandatory Reserve Funds • User-Rate Supported Reserve Funds • Under-Funded Liability Reserve Funds • Contingency Reserve Funds • Discretionary Reserve Funds

9.2 If as a result of the bi-annual review, a Reserve Fund is found to be

no longer necessary, the balance should be allocated to Reserve Funds that are underfunded on a corporate priority basis for consideration by Council.

The scenarios forming part of this review will take into account the Town’s capital needs, Council’s Priorities and the impact of inflation based on the Construction Price Index published by Statistics Canada.

12. Debt Management Policies

12.1 For Tax–Supported debt, debt carrying costs must be paid through the Town’s Operating Budget, while for Rate-Supported debt, debt carrying costs must be paid through user fees.

12.2 The use of internal borrowing should be maximized to reduce borrowing costs, while taking into consideration the impact on the Town’s overall financial position. Internal borrowing shall mean borrowing from Reserve Funds.

- Projects that support the Town’s Strategic Plan. - Projects that are funded entirely through user fees on a

permanent basis. - Projects that result from an emergency situation.

12.5 Lifecycle capital projects that renew or rehabilitate existing assets

should not be eligible for debt financing and a planned process will be developed whereby an annual tax-supported contribution will be made to meet lifecycle needs of all assets.

12.6 Until lifecycle costing is fully implemented, the Town will consider

undertaking a short-term managed program of debt financing to address the Town’s current infrastructure deficiency and to reduce further deterioration of the Town’s infrastructure.

12.7 The Town will structure debt to be consistent with a fair allocation of

costs to current and future beneficiaries or users.

12.8 As debt carrying costs decline due to retirement of debt, the Town will apply savings to accelerate achievement of full lifecycle costing of the Town’s infrastructure.

12.9 The Town will monitor its debt annually and report the results to

Council.
