Innisfil council approves 2021-22 budget with 0 per cent tax rate increase

Oct 28, 2021 , , , , by shlf

Innisfil council has unanimously approved a 2021-22 budget that includes a historic zero per cent tax increase.

Council approved the multi-year budget at its Dec. 9 meeting.

The 2021 budget comes with a zero per cent increase to the blended tax rate (including county and education) over 2020’s budget for the average assessed home, which is $446,363.

In 2022, owners of an average assessed home will see a one per cent blended tax rate increase, or an estimated extra $44.57 on their tax bill.

The town’s 2021 operating budget sits at $38,088,496, and the 2021 capital budget is $50,922,015.

In 2022, the operating budget will be $39,120,179, and the capital budget will be $25,493,482.

Council also approved the budget for the South Simcoe Police Service.

The police’s 2021 operating budget is $20,975,507. Innisfil and Bradford West Gwillimbury share the cost, with Innisfil’s estimated contribution at $11,263,847. The police’s 2021 capital budget is $610,622. Innisfil will fund 50 per cent, or $301,811, using money from the town’s police reserve ($185,811), and by adding $125,000 to the tax levy.

As part of the budget deliberation process, council inquired about a number of projects, which were addressed in the final report.

Of note, council requested that staff investigate ways to maintain current service levels for gravel road resurfacing. Staff will use the property tax rate stabilization reserve to fund that, to the tune of $159,000 in 2021 and 2022, and repairs to the washrooms at Innisfil Beach Park will happen in 2021 rather than 2022, at council’s request.

During the meeting, Coun. Donna Orsatti requested staff look into repairing or replacing the traffic islands on Innisfil Beach Road and report back to council.

“The islands have become in very poor state of repair; they need more than just a touch up,” she said.

Council approved the amendment.

Innisfil Mayor Lynn Dollin said the zero per cent blended tax increase is the first she has seen in her 26 years on council.

“Kudos to staff and council for, you know, making those tough decisions,” she said.

‘It’s not an issue limited to Wasaga Beach’: call for tougher car rally measures gets support from other towns

Aug 10, 2021 , , , , by shlf

A host of municipalities have rallied behind Wasaga Beach to ask the province for tougher rules on illegal gatherings of car enthusiasts.

The town was inundated in late September by drivers and their vehicles in a so-called ‘pop-up’ H2Oi car rally, in spite of the urging of OPP and local municipal officials for people to stay home.

The drivers came, regardless, and that resulted in about a dozen charges under the Reopening Ontario Act put in place due to the pandemic.

Police took 14 cars off the road for a variety of infractions, from street racing to having an unsafe vehicle.

At its Nov. 25 meeting, council received a motion from Halton Hills — in response to a letter to Premier Doug Ford from Wasaga Mayor Nina Bifolchi on Oct. 1 — and supporting letters from South Bruce Peninsula, Northumberland and the Township of Douro-Dummer, asking the Ontario government to develop tougher laws and larger financial penalties for unauthorized car rallies and participants.

“As a fellow tourist community, we understand the extreme upset that was caused in Wasaga Beach,” read the letter from South Bruce Peninsula Mayor Janice Jackson. “As more and more alarming behaviour is displayed, it becomes ever more apparent that training and support resources are required by our police forces.

“More support is required to ensure that these front-line peacekeepers are able to perform their duties without hesitation and with expert skills.”

In her Oct. 1 letter, Bifolchi made a number of recommendations to the premier, including enforcement and increased fines related to the display of licence plates, the use of improper exhaust, and the use of nitrous oxide fuel systems. Suggested penalties included higher fines, vehicle impoundment, and automatic licence suspensions.

She also suggested that municipalities have the authority to close its borders with the assistance of the OPP.

“It’s not an issue limited to Wasaga Beach,” said Wasaga Beach Coun. David Foster during the Nov. 25 meeting. “It’s disheartening to a certain extent that this is going on, not only from public safety, but also in relation to COVID-19.

“For those who say this is just kids having fun, you go, at what cost?” he said.
