    • Payment deferral options currently in place for residential developments, and their effectiveness;
    • Affordable housing incentive options for private sector development;
    • The appropriateness of discounting commercial and industrial development charges ( from 50% to 100%) where job creation goals are met;
    • Mechanisms for deferring development charge- support projects that are “population serving” vs “growth incenting” to ensure stability;
    • Look at derelict buildings and extend the development charge waiver up to ten years to encourage demolition and protect development rights;
    • Consider development charges being charged within the existing zone category (for example, storage units);
    • Reduce the development charge supported projects to specific user groups if appropriate ( for example, transferring a portion of growth related costs from non-residential to residential for parks);
