EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In 2016, the City of London moved away from the traditional annual budget process to a strategic multi-year budget framework that
provides for greater linkages to Municipal Councils Strategic Plan with the budget period covering 2016 to 2019. In the first year of
the multi-year budget process, Municipal Council approved an average annual increase from rates of 2.8% for the 2016-2019 multi-
year budget period. During the first annual update to the multi-year budget (2017), the average annual increase from rates was
maintained at 2.8%. The City of London is now in the second annual update to the multi-year budget (2018).

The budget that is being tabled presents some significant budgetary challenges, most of which are beyond the control of Civic
Administration. The budget document contains a total of 19 budget amendments, each supported by a multi-year budget
amendment case, that are being recommended by Civic Administration. Of the recommended budget amendments, all of the capital
budget amendments can be accommodated within the capital plan resulting in no impact to the tax levy. The remaining operating
budget amendments, excluding one, result in an impact to the tax levy.

Should Municipal Council approve all of the recommended budget amendments,

Administration, the average annual increase from rates would remain at 2.8% for the

beyondthecontrolofCivicAdministration
There are two budget amendments placing significant pressure on the budget.
These budget amendments include (1) proposed Provincial legislation related to
increasing minimum wage, and (2) a confidential corporate budget matter. The
proposed increases to minimum wage is an Ontario Government initiative that would rapidly increase minimum wage from
$11.60/hour to $15.00/hour by January 1, 2019. If passed, this legislation would have a financial impact to many organizations
across Ontario, including the City of London. In addition to the increase in minimum wage, a confidential corporate budget matter
which will be discussed in-camera, is also placing significant pressure on the budget. If all recommended budget amendments are
approved, including the two budget amendments that are beyond the control of Civic Administration, the average annual increase
from rates would rise to 3.0%.

2016-2019 MULTI-YEAR BUDGET RECAP


ON MARCH 10, 2016, MUNICIPAL COUNCIL APPROVED THE CITYS FIRST EVER MULTI-YEAR
BUDGET COVERING THE PERIOD FROM 2016-2019.
Municipal Council approved an average annual increase from rates of 2.8% for the 2016-2019 multi-year budget. This was
composed of a base operating budget average annual increase of 2.4% that was primarily to maintain existing service levels and an
additional average annual increase of 0.4% to fund strategic investments. In total, 25 strategic investments with a total gross
expenditure of $47.8 million over the 2016-2019 period were approved.

ON DECEMBER 6, 2016, MUNICIPAL COUNCIL APPROVED THE 2017 ANNUAL BUDGET


UPDATE. THIS WAS THE FIRST ANNUAL UPDATE TO THE 2016-2019 MULTI-YEAR BUDGET.
As part of the 2017 Annual Budget Update, Municipal Council approved a total of 20 budget amendments that were the result of new
provincial regulation, new Council direction, and cost drivers from changes in economic conditions. Although a marginal tax levy
increase was recognized, the average annual increase from rates was maintained at 2.8% as approved in the first year of the 2016-
2019 multi-year budget. The annual increase from rates approved by Municipal Council in the first and second year of the 2016-
2019 multi-year budget are contained in Table 1.

2018-2019 MULTI-YEAR BUDGET AMENDMENTS


Consistent with the 2017 Annual Budget Update, changes to the remaining years of the multi-year budget will be brought forward to
provide flexibility to address special events or circumstances that require funding and resource adjustments. Each budget
amendment will be classified into the following three categories:

1. New or Changed Regulation


A new or changed legislation or regulation with a financial impact to the municipality

2. New Council Direction


A new Council direction that has transpired after the approval of the multi-year budget

3. Cost or Revenue Driver


A corporate or service area budget adjustment as a result of changes in economic conditions

Each budget amendment that has an impact on the remaining years of the multi-year budget (i.e. 2018-2019) is supported by a multi-
year budget amendment case that provides Municipal Council with the justification and rationale for the amendment and the financial
and staffing impacts.

The budget document contains a total of 19 budget amendments that are being recommended by Civic Administration. Of the
recommended budget amendments, all of the capital budget amendments can be accommodated within the capital plan resulting in
no impact to the tax levy. The remaining operating budget amendments, excluding one, result in an impact to the tax levy.

Page 11

Should Municipal Council choose to approve all of the recommended budget amendments, excluding the budget amendments
related to proposed Provincial legislation related to minimum wage and an in-camera corporate budget matter (budget amendments
7 and 8) the average annual tax levy from rates from 2016-2019 will be maintained at 2.8% (Table 2). In order to offset budget
pressures, Civic Administration has submitted two budget amendment reductions that have assisted in maintaining the 2016-2019
average annual tax levy increase from rates at 2.8%. It is important to note that in addition to the submitted budget amendment
reductions, Civic Administration has been able to achieve the service review target reductions of $500 thousand in 2016 and $1.0
million in 2017. Additionally, the service review targets of $1.5 million in 2018 and $1.0 million in 2019 still must be achieved.

Page 12

If all recommended budget amendments are approved by Municipal Council, the average annual tax levy from rates from 2016-2019
would increase from 2.8% to 3.0% (Table 3). The increase is primarily due to proposed Provincial legislation related to minimum
wage that was not known when the multi-year budget was initially approved and an in-camera corporate budget matter that is also
beyond the control of Civic Administration. These unanticipated issues are putting budgetary pressures on the tax levy in 2018 and
2019 as illustrated in Figure 1 and Figure 2 on the next page.

The two year pilot will be complete in November 2017.
On May 30, 2017, as a result of a review of the London Music Industry Initiative Pilot, Municipal Council unanimously
approved the recommendation to bring forward a business case during the 2018 Annual Budget Update.
To continue the London Music Industry Development Office on a two year temporary basis, gross expenditures of $150
thousand per year are required. A strategic use of the Economic Development Reserve Fund is recommended in 2018 and
2019 resulting in no impact to the tax levy.

Rationale:

The UTRCA Board of Directors approved its Environmental Targets Strategic Plan in June 2016. This plan proposes the
most significant programming change in the Authoritys nearly 70 year history. These Environmental Targets are designed to
advance achievement of the UTRCA's goals:
1. Protecting people and their property from flooding and erosion;
2. Protecting and improving water quality;
3. Managing and expanding natural areas; and
4. Providing outdoor recreation/education opportunities.
In total, $4 million in new funding to support new staff and programs will be required annually to support this work. This new
funding is being sought from all four of the UTRCAs traditional revenue streams in the following proportions: senior
government funding (28%), municipal funding (28%), user fees (30%) and special contracts (14%). Municipal levy funding is
being requested from all 17 member municipalities with a planned four year phase-in (2017- 2020).
New municipal funding of $179 thousand was approved by Municipal Council on a permanent basis during the 2017 Annual
Budget Update, as per the Strategic Plans proposed budget.

Rationale:
The Dundas Place project aims to transform Dundas Street between Wellington Street and Thames River into a flexible
street, to become a prominent public destination and programming space for Londoners and visitors.
While the project will be transformational for the Downtown, a three-pronged "place management" approach, integrating
maintenance, security, and activation, will be critical to the successful operation of this space over time.
Gross expenditures of $75 thousand and $475 thousand are required in 2018 and 2019 respectively for costs associated
with this three-pronged approach, as well as management of the space, partially offset with a strategic use of the Economic
Development Reserve Fund in 2018 ($75 thousand) and 2019 ($100 thousand).

Rationale:
The City of London (the City) has an agreement with University of Western Ontario Research and Development Park
(Western Research Park) for the City to provide the Stiller Centre for Technology Commercialization with an annual
contribution from June 30, 2010 through April 20, 2028.
In September 2017, Western Research Park provided the City with formal notice that they wished to terminate the
agreement effective April 30, 2018, as Stiller Centre no longer required the annual subsidy from the City.
Western Research Park wishes to extend its sincere appreciation to the City for their long-standing and unwavering
commitment to the Stiller Centre for Technology Commercialization, its vision and its mission.

Rationale:
The Ontario government announced its intention to increase the minimum wage from $11.60/hour to $14.00/hour effective
January 1, 2018 (20.7% increase) and $15.00/hour effective January 1, 2019 (7.1% increase).
As of September 2017, the proposed legislation, Bill 148 - Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs Act, 2017, is currently draft and the
government is engaging in consultation throughout the Province to obtain feedback on the proposed increases to the
minimum wage from employees, employers and other interested parties.
An operating budget increase is recommended to reflect the proposed increase, partially offset by limited user fee
increases.

RECONCILIATION OF TABLED BUDGET TO
PUBLIC SECTOR ACCOUNTING BOARD
FINANCIAL STATEMENT BUDGET
Ontario municipalities must adhere to Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) accounting standards and reporting requirements, however, with the
introduction of PS1200 in 2009, the Province of Ontario enacted a regulation, Ontario Regulation 284/09, allowing for certain items to be excluded
from their budgets, as long as it was disclosed. Typical PSAB items, such as costs related to amortization expense, post-employment benefit
expense and solid waste landfill closure and post-closure expense can be excluded, however, the regulation requires that the municipality report to
Council on the impact of these excluded costs prior to budget approval.
The regulation requires that the report contain information regarding:
1. An estimate of the change in the accumulated surplus of the municipality to the end of the year resulting from the exclusion of any of those
expenses; and
2. An analysis of the estimated impact of the exclusion of any of those expenses on the future tangible capital asset funding requirements of
the municipality or local board.
Londons 2018 and 2019 draft Property Tax Supported operating budgets as tabled, exclude the following expenses:
1. Expenses for the amortization of tangible capital assets, estimated to be $76.0 million for 2018 and $79.3 million for 2019, are excluded.
The budget does include reserve fund contributions of $57.7 million for 2018 and $57.7 million for 2019 and pay as you go contributions of
$43.3 million for 2018 and $45.6 million for 2019 for capital asset additions.
2. The budget does not contain the current years post-employment benefit expense for early retirement and accrued sick leave, estimated to
total $6.1 million for 2018 and $6.1 million for 2019, for employees that are eligible for these benefits. The Corporation's consolidated liability
as at December 31, 2016 was $149.2 million. Reserve fund balances as of December 31, 2016 of $18.7 million are available to offset this
obligation.
3. The City has a landfill closure and post-closure liability of $34.4 million, which is not recorded as an expense in the budget. The Sanitary
Landfill Reserve Fund, with a balance of $11.9 million as of December 31, 2016, partially offsets this liability.
4. The City also makes contributions to an additional reserve to offset the liabilities created from the post-employment (point 2 above) and
landfill closure and post-closure expenses (point 3 above) depending upon generated surpluses, including personnel cost savings. The
balance in this reserve as of December 31, 2016 was $62.5 million.
If the above items were included in the 2018 and 2019 budgets, the projected annual PSAB surplus would decrease.
Table 1 and Table 2 on the following pages show 2018 and 2019 draft Property Tax Supported operating budgets and the 2017 approved revised
budget in PSAB format.
