3.3 Expenses incurred by staff associated with an application in excess of
Planning Act requirements and actual costs incurred for such items as
advertising, consulting (Planning, Development Engineering, and other) and
legal will be charged directly to the applicant and deducted from the
refundable deposit. As expenses and actual costs are incurred on behalf of
the application, they will be submitted to the applicant for reimbursement so
that the initial refundable deposit will be replenished to enable the Township
to pay further costs as they are incurred. In the event that the applicant does
not maintain the application fee and applicable deposits with the Finance
Department then the application will be considered not complete with respect
to the payment of fees under the Planning Act.
3.4 Any person making application to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal shall
pay the applicable fees outlined by the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal and/or
the Planning Act, as amended. All cheques for such applications are to be

responsible for all costs to the Municipality associated therewith. Such costs
shall include legal, expert testimony, and administrative and overhead costs.
To secure payment of such costs, the applicant will provide the Township
upon notice and/or acknowledgement of an appeal to the Local Planning
Appeal Tribunal, with an initial deposit of $ 5000.00 such amount to be
increased by an amount determined by the Township in the event the
Township determines the nature of the application indicates that $ 5000.00
may be inadequate.
Where a Development Services Committee decisions has been appealed and
the Committee does not adopt the position recommended by Township staff,
then the following provision shall apply in the event the applicant obtains a
summons compelling Township staff to attend the hearing of the Local
Planning Appeal Tribunal. Staff shall undertake such preparations as
required for the hearing and the costs of such preparation and attendance at
the hearing, including any legal costs not otherwise associated with the
hearing, shall be paid by the applicant who has obtained the summons. In
this instance, the fee is $ 5000.00 and shall be paid to the Township not later
than the day before the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal hearing.
Any costs to the Township in excess of the deposit shall be paid to the
Township by the applicant upon submission of an invoice thereof.
3.7 The tariff of fees described in Schedule "E" shall not include the processing of
objections to amendments, the attendance of the Municipality at Local
Planning Appeal Tribunal hearings, the attendance of the Municipality at any
public meetings other than those formally required by the Planning Act, the
preparation of Subdivision Agreements or the review and approval of
engineering drawings relating to subdivisions by the Municipality. The
applicant agrees that, should the above become necessary, the applicant will
provide the Township with a deposit which shall be determined by the
Treasurer on an individual basis, and the applicant will provide a written
Page 16 of 29
agreement to pay further deposits as required, and to reimburse any costs not
covered by the deposits.

3.8 application fee may be refunded. If an application is withdrawn after
circulation but prior to a staff report being prepared, 25% of the application fee
may be refunded.

3.9 inactive for 12 months shall be considered abandoned and a full application
fee at the current rate shall be required to activate a new application.
Consulting Services: Where any application requires the Township to hire a
3.10 consultant to review supporting technical studies on behalf of the Township,
the applicant shall be responsible for all costs, and those costs shall be
payable upon submission of an invoice from the Township. In the event the
invoice is not paid in full, the application will be placed on hold and no further
work will be completed until payment is received.
All applicants, in addition to the fees as set out in Schedule "E" attached
3.11 hereto and forming part of this By-law, shall also be responsible for all legal
expenses that may be incurred by the Municipality in connection with their
application and those costs shall be payable upon submission of an invoice
from the Township.
That notwithstanding the tariff of fees prescribed in Schedule "E" attached
3.12 hereto and forming part of this By-law, the Council of the Corporation of the
Township of Oro-Medonte may, by resolution, reduce the amount of or waive
the requirements for the payment of the fee in respect of the application
where the Council is satisfied that it would be unreasonable to require
payment in accordance with the tariff.
