​Bruce County development charges now in effect

Bruce County development charges are in effect, as of Jan. 1, 2024.

The county did not receive any appeals to the development charges bylaw by the appeal period deadline of Jan. 2, 2024.

Development charges are being implemented on a graduated basis over a 10-year period, with only 25 per cent of the charge being in effect in 2024.

Collecting development charges from new development will help pay for the new growth-related infrastructure and will reduce the need to increase property taxes.
