Updated development charge rates have been approved in Belleville.
Belleville City Council approved a new Development Charges By-law at its regular meeting on Monday, September 14.
The new by-law establishes updated development charge rates for residential development across the city.
For single-detached homes in Belleville’s urban area, the rate has decreased by $4,375 — a 14 per cent reduction from the rate under the previous by-law.
The by-law maintains the existing non-residential development charge rates while City staff complete a detailed review of feedback received from non-residential stakeholders during the public consultation process.
Staff will report back to Council in early 2027 with recommendations related to non-residential rates.
