Whereas Section 407(1) of the Municipal Act, 2001, S.O. 2001, c. 25, as
amended, provides that a municipality may authorize temporary borrowing, until
taxes are collected and other revenues are received, of the amount council
considers necessary to meet the current expenditures of the municipality for the
year; and
Whereas pursuant to the said Municipal Act, 2001 Section 407(2) provides that,
except with the approval of the Ontario Municipal Board, the total amount
borrowed at any one time, plus any outstanding amounts of principal borrowed
and accrued interest, shall not exceed the limits set forth in that section or other
relevant sections of the act; and
Whereas the Council of The Corporation of the Municipality of Kincardine deems
it necessary to authorize borrowing in the amount of three million dollars
($3,000,000.00) to meet, until taxes are collected and other revenues are
received, the current expenditures of the Municipality for the year; and
Whereas pursuant to the said Municipal Act, 2001 Section 23(1) authorizes a
municipality to delegate its powers and duties under this or any other Act to a
person or body subject to the restriction set out in the Act; and
Whereas the Council of The Corporation of the Municipality of Kincardine deems
it advisable to delegate the power in Section 407 (1) of the said Municipal Act to
