4. Surplus/Deficit Allocation Policy M. Villeneuve described the way annual surplus/deficits are currently treated, which is by way of an annual recommendation to Council. Most municipalities across Ontario use the same method. Council requested that the Audit Committee review the surplus/deficit policy. M. Villeneuve answered questions from committee members. It was noted that a legal opinion was obtained to interpret the Municipal Act requirements, which deemed that the current method of surplus/deficit allocation was not in violation of the Municipal Act. In response to a question about the Town’s auditor’s opinion, M. Villeneuve indicated that he and O. Poloni, KPMG, have had discussions and that Mr. Poloni has reviewed the report and recommendations presented to Council and has commented that his preference is that surplus/deficits be dealt with automatically according to an established policy, not necessarily brought to Council annually and not allocated to the following budget. M. Villeneuve believes the surplus/deficit should be examined annually, due to the volatility of certain areas and
________________________________________________________________________ Audit Committee Report AU-2015-4 - 2 - June 4, 2015
the varying needs from time to time. The Auditors support the current method of how the Town has been dealing the surplus/deficits. Audience member G. Dixon explained to the Committee that the surplus/deficit should be included in the following year’s budget. Member G. Canning spoke to his desire to see the surplus/deficit allocation issue fall under the umbrella of budget, as he believes that would increase transparency as there is greater scrutiny by the general public during the budget process. M. Villeneuve noted that the 2014 deficit cannot be incorporated into the 2015 budget as it has already been passed. Budgets are usually adopted or substantially complete before the surplus/deficit is known. It was then
Moved by G, Canning Seconded by J. Rumney
THAT the Audit Committee recommends that the Town continue the practice of making recommendations to Council on an annual basis, incorporated into the annual budget where possible, for their approval of the allocations of surplus and deficits.
CARRIED.

Audit Committee 1 2nd Quarter 2015 August 12, 2015 Report TR-2015-20
STAFF REPORT
DEPARTMENT: Treasury CHAIR: Member J. Kurvink DATE: August 4, 2015 Report No.: TR-2015-20: 2015 2nd Quarter Financial Statements RECOMMENDATION: Provided for information. BACKGROUND: Please find attached the 2015 2nd Quarter Financial Report for your information. ANALYSIS: Taxation Taxation is slightly favourable to date mostly due to lower tax-write offs to date than anticipated $33K offset by lower interest and penalties revenue $13K as a result of a significant reduction in outstanding taxes in arrears as well higher rebates to commercial and industrial properties in the year $15K and no legal or consulting expenditures to date $6K. General Revenues
The slightly unfavourable variance is largely due to lower than anticipated POA revenues to date $9K, lower than anticipated dividend from MPUC $6K offset by higher institution levy $9K mostly due to greater number of students at Georgian College. Administration Administration is slightly unfavourable largely due to legal fees being higher than anticipated to date from mostly from land and personnel matters $11K, the prepaying of postage and shipping costs $8K not recorded as a prepaid expenditure, timing of administrative recovery $10K, unanticipated replacement of rooftop unit for municipal building $8K, offset by higher interest income $30K due to timing of construction projects having not yet been underway.
Audit Committee 2 2nd Quarter 2015 August 12, 2015 Report TR-2015-20
By-Law The unfavourable variance is largely due to an insurance claim up to the deductible amount of $25K for an ongoing legal matter offset by small favourable variances in other line items. Planning The favourable variance is largely due to the time lag between when an employee left the organization and the hiring of their replacement at a lower starting salary. Fire The Fire department’s favourable variance is largely due to significantly less overtime used, timing of hiring of new fire chief and lower use of volunteers to date. Police The Police department’s favourable variance is largely due to significant costs relating to the disbandment of the Dispatch service expected in June that has yet to occur due to timing of Ontario Civilian Police Commission hearings that are now anticipated to occur in the fall. Additionally, two civilian members that have left their employment have not been replaced, revenues are slightly higher than anticipated in record checks and a new grant to help offset use of vehicles for court proceedings. These favourable variances are partially offset by two insurance claims totaling $50K. Parks and Recreation Overall, Parks and Recreation has an unfavourable variance of $45K. This largely relates to less seasonal dockage $8K due to fewer boaters this year and Tour Boat fees $9K which are being billed in the third quarter, an insurance claim of $25K in Parks, significant repairs and maintenance needed at the NSSRC and to equipment where full year’s budgets have been exhausted $42K, vacation and sick leave compensation paid upfront for retired employee where budget has been spread for the entire year and special event revenues that have yet to be recouped. These are offset by an unbudgeted donation of $23,500 from Tiny for the operations of the NSSRC. Public Works Overall, the Public Works section is currently unfavourable $11K. The unfavourable variance is largely due to higher than anticipated winter maintenance activities $108K, $29K traffic control and safety device repairs, higher insurance claims $25K, significant repairs to the transit bus $27K, higher than anticipated use of the accessible transit $8K, offset by timing of capital grant yet to be expended $115K on road construction to commence in 3rd quarter, lower than anticipated maintenance of storm sewers and culverts $33K, streetlight hydro $12K and various other smaller items $26K.
Audit Committee 3 2nd Quarter 2015 August 12, 2015 Report TR-2015-20
Water and Wastewater Overall the Water and Wastewater departments are currently unfavourable by $68K. This is largely due to a significant construction project that has begun and is expected to be completed in the 3rd quarter that has yet to be offset by approx. 80% in future cost recoveries by way of a fees by-law. Additional revenue of approx. $200K has yet to be recorded as it has not yet been authorized. Other unfavourable variances relate to timing of meter replacements $20K, higher watermain and water service repairs $52K. These are mostly offset by $170K in additional revenue mostly from increased commercial wastewater volume and $40K in source water protection revenues yet to be expended. Building The favourable variance is largely due to building permit activity tracking favourably $30K as well as additional revenues from providing building services to Penetanguishene $8K as compared to the previous year. Parking The unfavourable variance largely relates to lower than anticipated contract parking largely a result of a significant customer in the downtown being lost and yet to be replaced and slightly lower street parking and fines than anticipated largely due to a reduction in enforcement.
Midland Bay Landing The favourable variance largely relates to monthly collection of income from the developer 3 months ahead of anticipated as well as no significant new expenditures incurred and internally financed resulting in lower internal interest repayment. SUSTAINABILITY: N/A COUNCIL’S STRATEGIC PLAN: N/A CONCLUSIONS: Overall, for the second quarter of 2015, the Town has favourable variance of $201K (tax related favourable $270K and Water/Wastewater related $69K unfavourable).

Audit Committee 1 Committee Structure August 12, 2015 Changes Report TR-2015-21
STAFF REPORT
DEPARTMENT: Treasury CHAIR: Member J. Kurvink DATE: August 4, 2015 Report No.: TR-2015-21: Committee Structure Changes RECOMMENDATION: Provided for information. BACKGROUND: A number of organizational changes were proposed and adopted by Council during the 2015 budget process. In order to have a financial reporting model that reflects the “new” organization, a number of changes were needed and are highlighted in attached report TR-2015-19. The Audit Committee will see a revised model beginning in the third quarter of 2015. ANALYSIS: n/a SUSTAINABILITY: N/A COUNCIL’S STRATEGIC PLAN Consistent with the following Council Strategic Planning Priorities:
- Municipal Review and Restructuring - Transformative Government & Governance - Core Service Review

Council 1 Amend Schedule A July 27, 2015 to Tax Rate Bylaw Report TR-2015-19
STAFF REPORT
DEPARTMENT/FUNCTION: Treasury
CHAIR: Councillor J. Contin DATE: July 21, 2015 Report No.: TR-2015-19: Amend Schedule “A” to Tax Rate By-Law
RECOMMENDATION: That the proposed reporting structure be adopted. And further that bylaw 2015-29 be amended by replacing Schedule A included as Appendix B with Schedule A included as Appendix C.
BACKGROUND: The organizational and restructuring changes that were proposed during the 2015 budget process have now been completed. The changes require some movements within our financial reporting to reflect the new organizational structure. While the 2015 budget was adopted using the previous reporting structure, it was understood that the changes that were undertook would require changes to our reporting structure. ANALYSIS: The change has provided an opportunity to consider the general ledger as a whole and not only those fundamental changes to the organization. Some minor changes were made to add consistency and to improve internal reporting and analysis while other changes being implemented improve clarity and transparency (MPUC, Huronia Airport, SSEA now separately disclosed). Appendix A summarizes the current and proposed coding and allocations along with general explanations of changes. In order to report our financial information using the new reporting format, we require that Appendix B being Schedule A attached to the previously adopted
Council 2 Amend Schedule A July 27, 2015 to Tax Rate Bylaw Report TR-2015-19
2015 Tax Rate By-law be replaced with Appendix C being the new amended Schedule A to the Tax Rate By-Law. This will allow us to restructure the 2015 budget allocations and reclass the actuals to date for the 3rd quarter of 2015 and moving forward. By reclassing the 2015 budget and actuals to the new structure, our departments will be better positioned for preparing their 2016 budgets and long term forecasts. SUSTAINABILITY: N/A CONCLUSIONS: That the proposed reporting structure be adopted. And further that bylaw 2015-29 be amended by replacing Schedule A included as Appendix B with Schedule A included as Appendix C. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None. Prepared by: Marc Villeneuve, CPA, CA,
