  • What in the World Is Cash-In-Lieu of Parkland? by David Knockaert He Provincial Planning Act Requires Developers to Set Aside Land for Green Space
    FEBRUARY 2020 A Voice of Riverview Park MARCH 2020 What in the world is cash-in-lieu of parkland? by David Knockaert he Provincial Planning Act requires developers to set aside land for green space. However,T that is often impractical, either because land in the area of the development is not available or because the land acquired would be so small as to be of little use. In such situations, developers provide the city with cash-in-lieu of green space/parkland. Forty percent of this revenue goes to municipal administrators for city wide use. Sixty percent is allocated to the ward in which the development is taking place. Each ward councillor controls their own fund. While allocations are in- tended to be disbursed within that specific ward, some may be spent elsewhere should two or more councillors agree to pool funds in support of a project, providing that project is within one of their wards. Alternatively, a councillor may choose to hand ward revenue to city administrators who would then use the funds on either an ex- isting or new park. Councillors may spend for the acquisition of land for new parks, increase the capacity of parks, park facilities, upgrade program space or to repair, renew, and replace fixed park assets. Revenue cannot be used to offset operational costs (e.g. maintenance) nor for portable items such as athletic equipment. Cash-in-lieu of parkland is not a common topic of public conver- sation. It seldom draws attention CONTINUED ON PAGE 3 Cash-in-lieu of parkland money helps buy new playground equipment such as at Hutton Park.
