Hewitt’s Creek Landowners Group – Fiscal Analysis of Annexation Lands
About the project
For a group of landowners representing the eastern lands within a 5,700 acre annexation area, urbanMetrics provided the background financial consulting to assist negotiations between the landowners and the City of Barrie with respect to financing future development.
Our analysis considered all aspects of development financing, including development charges, non-legislated developer contributions, front-ending arrangements and developer provided infrastructure. The result of this exercise was a financing agreement with the City and approved secondary plans to guide development of these lands which would accommodate a significant share of future growth in the City in the foreseeable future.
