Be it resolved that WHEREAS the Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School
Board and the Simcoe County District School Board, hereinafter referred to as

laws based on a jurisdiction-wide approach that imposes a residential charge of

AND WHEREAS the Boards also presented two other area-specific based
options that impose a considerably lesser charge of $726 or $781 respectively
per residential unit;

wide and the area-specific based options dramatically illustrate the lack of
fairness and equity to northern municipalities due to the adoption of By-laws

NOW THEREFORE the Council of the Township of Oro-Medonte hereby directs
staff to file notices of appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board objecting to the
Education Development Charge By-laws passed on October 30th, 2000 on the

northerly municipalities and for such other reasons as may be put forward
between the date of filing of the notice of appeal and the commencement of the
hearing before the Ontario Municipal Board.
