Ontario Regulation 284/09 •

Prior to the 2009 financial reporting year, tangible capital assets and amortization were not reported on the financial statements by municipalities



Recent changes in municipal accounting rules now require full accrual method of accounting , the reporting of all tangible capital assets (at historical cost), and related amortization



Municipalities may continue to budget based on the funding method (i.e. revenues balanced to expenses, not show amortization as an expense for budgeting purposes)



However, in accordance with Ontario Regulation 284/09, prior to the Town adopting the 2011 & subsequent budgets, a report must be prepared and adopted by Council that outlines: – Expenses excluded from the budget – i.e. Amortization in the Town of Caledon’s case – An estimated change in the Town’s accumulated surplus at the end of the year resulting from the excluded expenses – The estimated impact of the exclusion of the expenses to future tangible capital asset funding requirements Slide 17

Recommendations 1 That Report CS-2011-005 regarding the Town of Caledon’s 2011 Budget be received; 2 That the 2011 Town Operating Budget net increase of $3,593,751, representing a 10.4% average residential tax increase to the Town levy only (or estimated 4.6% overall assuming Region of Peel increase of 2.2% and Education increase of 0%) be approved; 3 That the 2011 Budget, as presented to Council on January 4, 18 and February 1, 2011 be approved at a net Town tax levy amount of an estimated $38,270,832 inclusive of: a) a base operating budget increase of $1,972,630 (unavoidable budget increases), b) staff recommended budget reductions of $925,952 (Service Delivery Efficiencies $233,630, New Fees/Revenues $638,230, Fee Rate Increases $54,092), c) additional Tax Levy Funded Capital $1,671,362, and d) recommended Urgent Unmet Needs of $875,711 4 That if after the finalization of the Region and Education 2011 increases, the impact of assessment growth, and the impact of 2008 4-year reassessment phase-in, there is a less than 4.6% average residential tax increase overall (including Town, Region, Education), staff will prepare a final tax levy by-law that results in an overall average residential tax increase of 4.6% with additional funds directed to a Capital Infrastructure Reserve Fund; Slide 18

Recommendations 5 That the capital program, in the gross capital budget amount of $15,421,068, as listed in Schedule A to report CS-2011-005 be approved; 6 That the urgent unmet needs, in the net expense amount of $875,711, as listed in Schedule B to report CS-2011-005 be approved;
