The Town of Innisfil collects development charges to cover the costs of building infrastructure so that new developments can receive municipal services, such as roads, water and sewer infrastructure. 

Development charges are levied against new development and are a primary source of funding for growth-related capital expenditures. Each year, Town of Innisfil development charges will be indexed on April 1 with the most recent twelve-month change in the Statistics Canada Quarterly, “Building Construction Price Index”.

Interest on Development Charges

The fundamental principle of funding growth-related capital costs is that, "growth should pay for
growth". This Development Charge Interest Policy ensures that there is compensating interest income to fund the lost development charges (DC) that result from the DC rate freeze and deferred payment
requirements.
