, though Clark did not specify whether that would be on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
While Clark promised to make the city whole, he also said Wednesday that the province would be launching a third-party audit of municipal reserve funds. He said that while development charges collected by the city are not used immediately, they are put into reserve to pay for projects the city knows it will need to carry out, much like a homeowner saving for a new roof.
But in his comments Thursday, the premier cast doubt on the idea that the municipal government is managing its funds well. He said the city’s fees are passed on to homebuyers and suggested that increasing charges to developers drives up the cost of homes.
He owes too much to his donors. It’s payback time for them on the backs of Ontarians.
I don't mind the fee's being cut but, you have to make sure municipalities can't raise taxes to compensate. If they raise taxes then there's no point to cutting fees except to benefit builders.
If he did that would piss off his buddies
Is there any guarantee the developers will pass the savings on to homeowners/renters? No, I didn’t think so.
When fordo talks about waste/he’s generally looking in a mirror.
The impacted cities should STOP providing services for which they aren't paid. Current residents shouldn't subsidize newcomers simply because fordnation says they must. cc. JohnTory BonnieCrombie patrickbrownont
