Development Fees and Charges

The development charges for municipal services (service studies, fire protection, emergency services, parks and recreation etc.) are calculated following the guidelines set out by the development charges bylaws.

The County of Brant undertook an update to its Development Charges Background Study and By-law to reflect new projects and updated costs for capital works needed to support growth in the community over the next ten (10) years. The new by-law came into effect November 1, 2024.
