This report has been developed for the purpose of fully assessing the tax and cost implications of the Town of Flamborough s municipal reform proposal. The new City of Hamilton Each of the potential receiving host municipalities have considered the Flamborough proposal and have passed a resolution indicating its acceptance or non-acceptance of the section of the Town intended for them.
All resolutions contain a number of conditions for acceptance.
We have provided our impact projections based on our interpretation of these stated conditions. Our analysis is based on 1999 financial information. This is the most up to date information that is readily available and was also used by the Town of Flamborough, the new City of Hamilton and the potential receiving host municipalities in the development of their analyses. We have subsequently obtained information from the new City of Hamilton which has been used to identify impacts to areas in the new municipality. This information is described and incorporated into impacts found in section D of our report.
