Development Charges are fees imposed against land to pay for increased capital costs required because of increased needs for services arising from development of the area.

The collected Development Charges may be applied to the following City of St. Thomas services: waste, water treatment, roads, recreation, library, fire protection and related studies.

Development Charges are payable on the date the permit is issued under the Ontario Building Code Act, 1992, in relation to a building or structure on land to which the development charge applies.
