All reasonable expenses incurred incidental to the closing for land transfer tax, legal costs, and disbursements are to be paid by TRCA; AND FURTHER THAT authorized TRCA officials be directed to take the necessary action to finalize the transaction, including obtaining any necessary approvals and the signing and execution of documents. BACKGROUND Resolution #A161/15 at Authority Meeting #8/15, held on September 25, 2015, approved the Greenlands Acquisition Project for 2016-2020. Negotiations have been conducted with Ian McCullough, Vice President of Land Development, Coughlan Homes, acting as agent for the owner. Access to the subject lands will be achieved through its frontage on Church Street North. Attached is a sketch illustrating the location of the subject lands. 4 Item 7.1 RATIONALE The subject lands fall within TRCA's approved master plan for acquisition for the Duffins Creek watershed as outlined in the approved Greenlands Acquisition Project for 2016-2020. Through the review of the Plan of Subdivision 18T-95036, TRCA staff established the limits of the open space land. TAXES AND MAINTENANCE Based on TRCA's preliminary review of the environmental criteria for lands that are eligible to receive a property tax exemption under the provincial Conservation Land Tax Incentive Program, it would appear that the subject property should be eligible for a tax exemption. While it is expected that the subject parcel of land will not significantly impact TRCA’s maintenance costs at this location, an assessment of the aggregate acquisitions in the area will be undertaken and the results will be integrated into TRCA’s land management program and associated budgets. FINANCIAL DETAILS Funds for the costs related to this purchase are available in the TRCA land acquisition capital account.
