Business and Development

WFN collects fees from land developers to help pay for infrastructure and growth related needs called Development Cost Charges (DCCs). Anytime a proposed development increases density, DCCs are estimated and charged; this includes creating new square footage on a commercial or industrial project, adding new dwellings or creating new subdivided lots. Development application fees and DCCs are important aspects of development within WFN. They help offset some of the infrastructure expenditures experienced in servicing new developments and maintaining existing infrastructure.

DCCs are charges levied on developers to help pay for Infrastructure and Growth related needs.

Examples of projects funded by DCCs are:

  • the WFN Skate Park
  • Sidewalk projects
  • the new Carrington/Butt Rd roundabout.

The WFN DCC fees are waived for WFN members who are creating 3 or less lots for single family buildings.
