The Regulation requires that this report be adopted by City Council (Council) prior to the adoption of its annual budget. To meet the requirements of the Regulation, this report discusses the impact of excluding amortization expense, post-employment benefit expenses and solid waste landfill closure and post-closure expenses from the City's budget, along with the impact of the differences between how the City treats the purchase of tangible capital assets, debt principal repayments, Government Business Enterprise (GBE) earnings, and expenses arising from contaminated site liabilities for budgeting and financial reporting purposes. The treatment of the expenses beyond those identified in the Regulation is included to reflect the complete impact on estimated accumulated surplus for 2019.
