Development Charges
Under City of London By-law No. C.P.-1473-212, amended by City Council on
August 4, 2009, Section 36 states:
36. Industrial Use Exemptions

i. Enlargement 50 per cent or less - If the gross floor area is enlarged by 50 per cent or less, the amount of the development charge in respect of the enlargement is zero.
ii. Enlargement more than 50 per cent - If the gross floor area is enlarged by more than 50 per cent the amount of the development charge in respect of the enlargement is the amount of the development charge that would otherwise be payable multiplied by the fraction determined as follows:
1. Determine the amount by which the enlargement exceeds 50 per cent of the gross floor area before the enlargement.
2. Divide the amount determined under paragraph 1 by the amount of the enlargement.
