| Seaton Area Specific Development Charges |
|
The information provided is intended only as a guide. Additional charges may apply in accordance with the Seaton Front Ending Agreement (e.g. prepayment of the Attributions Development Charge to ensure the Region recovers its capital costs by the end of Phase 1 development of Seaton). Applicants should review the approved by-law and consult with our Works Department to determine the charges that may apply to specific development proposals.
| Purpose |
|
Each new residential and non-residential unit and the corresponding occupancy of that unit generate capital costs, which should be financed from this new development. Area specific development charges are a viable capital funding source to recover the net cost of these capital expenditures, which are specific to the Seaton Service Area.

| By-Law #19-2013 |
|
On April 24, 2013, in accordance with the Development Charges Act, 1997, Regional Council passed By-law #19-2013 (effective November 26, 2015) for the imposition of Water Supply and Sanitary Sewerage Area Specific Development Charges against all lands within the Seaton Service Area in the City of Pickering (refer to the map on pages 5 and 6) that are developed for residential and non-residential uses.
The Seaton Water Supply and Sanitary Sewerage Area Specific Development Charges are set out in the following schedules shown on pages 2 and 3 (effective as of July 1, 2017). They will be indexed annually in accordance with the annual change in the Statistics Canada Quarterly Construction Price Index. The term of the by-law is five years.
The Prestige Employment Land Area Development Charges are only applicable on the Prestige Employment Lands along highways 407 and 7 as designated on the map on pages 5 and 6. The Residential, Non-Institutional and Institutional Development Charges are applicable to lands outside of the Prestige Employment Land Area.
