The Fiscal Challenges for Growing Cities • Paying for Growth • Capital Infrastructure • Operation/ Maintenance • Rapid Expansion of Services and Infrastructure • A larger footprint/ more people increases costs faster than revenues • Limited revenue sources
“Triple-Double” of Urban Infrastructure • Financing: • Pay as You Go • Borrowing • Funding: • Taxes • User Fees • Delivery • Public • Private
Federal/ Provincial Partnerships • Leveraging financial resources through federal and provincial partnerships; • Since 2007: • City has partnered with federal and provincial governments to invest over $700 million on various infrastructure projects; • The challenge: • cities do not have control over the timing and the level of investment for projects
A New Fiscal Framework? • Existing tax and fee structure will not meet our infrastructure needs; • CurrentFederal/Provincial infrastructure programs will not resolve the infrastructure issues; • New and Innovative revenue tools to pay/charge for infrastructure
