You are encouraged to compare Brockville’s costing and social
economic offerings to other communities. The City of Brockville
boasts very competitive tax rates among 12 other like-sized small
urban Ontario municipalities found both in the Eastern and
Southwestern regions. Brockville had the 6th lowest residential rate,
the 2nd lowest multi-residential rate, the 8th lowest commercial rate,
and 4th lowest industrial rate.
The City of Brockville remains an important place both within Ontario
and Canada broadly for entrepreneurs and those wishing to start up
businesses. The Canadian Federation of Independent Business
(CFIB) places Brockville within the top 100 entrepreneurial cities in
the country, ahead of such places as Vancouver, Victoria, Montreal,
and Halifax. For more information on the CFIB please visit

The City of Brockville and its outlying regions have shown an
incredible growth in creative economy jobs. According to the Martin
Prosperity Institute, Brockville and region has the second highest
percentage of creative class workers and one of the highest
percentages of creative occupations in the province. Rural areas in
the region boast the highest percentage of creative industry
establishments. For more information on the Creative Corridor Study,

The City of Brockville scored over 70% percent favourable score as
part of an examination into Community Vitality within the
municipality. The score was determined by surveys done by
Brockville’s own residents. Initiated in 2007, the study (by The Ciel)
found that Brockville’s primary strengths in vitality indicators (out of
9) were arts, heritage and culture (79.5%), life-long learning
(79.3%), physical space (77.3%), and the environment (74.9%) with
an average score of 71.3% compared with a four community
average of 63.5%. Relative to others, Brockvillians are still very
content with the vitality of life in their municipal community. For

Leadership and the Community Vitality Initiative, please visit

The City of Brockville is one of the oldest and historically important
communities in Ontario. It was first settled and founded by American
citizens, loyal to the British government, following the closing of the
British-American War of 1775-83. These new settlers were known as
United Empire Loyalists.
William Buell, Daniel Jones and Charles Jones were the three village
founders that were granted the land which forms the historic area of
the original downtown Brockville.
A town site was first laid out about 1802 on the central portion owned
by William Buell, who lived here for 47 years, from 1785 to 1832,
developing his properties for later settlers.
Brockville stands on the eastern edge of the Canadian Shield, a
rocky, geological formation. The local terrain, near the shore of the
St. Lawrence River,
although not conducive
for farming included
Buell’s Bay, Buell’s
Creek, three rising
plateaus from the
shoreline, and a small
island, close to
the shore, later named
Blockhouse Island.
These characteristics
were exploited as the
small village grew in
the early 1800s.
In 1809, the government of Upper Canada decided to build a new
court house and jail here, on the high plateau back of the shore, on a
piece of land offered by William Buell. These facilities led to the
establishment of the seat of government here for the District of
Johnstown and then later the United Counties of Leeds and
Grenville. Court House Square and Green, surrounded by public
buildings and tall neo-Gothic churches, in front of the 1842-built
Brockville Court House, is one of eastern Ontario’s most attractive
urban spaces.
4
Brockville was named in 1812, to honour General Isaac Brock, the
“Hero of Upper Canada”, whose command of the British and militia
forces of this province led to success during the second BritishAmerican War of 1812-14. His tragic death in October 1812
confirmed the wisdom of being the first adopters of his name for the
small village.
Later, when Brockville’s population exceeded 1000 residents, the
village became one of the first places to send an elected
representative to the provincial legislature. In 1832, Brockville was
successful in becoming the first incorporated and self-governing
“Police Village” in Upper Canada.
Located on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River, Brockville
became a popular port-of-call for the steamships that travelled up
and down the river. These ships carried immigrants to Canada and
raw materials and manufactured products to their markets. The
waterfront of Brockville was soon dotted with new industries like
foundries, tanneries, breweries, as well as numerous warehouses.
In the 1850s, the town of Brockville was made the centre of railway
transportation, as both the Grand Trunk Railway and the Brockville &
Ottawa Railway opened their rail lines here. These decisions led to
further growth and development of this community. Brockville is the
site of Canada’s first railway tunnel, opened in 1860. It provided a
route for trains from the Ottawa Valley to the Brockville waterfront for
over 110 years. The Brockville Railway Tunnel passes completely
under the centre of the city for a third of a mile and is open to the
public.
The downtown streets of Brockville are an “outdoor museum” of
beautiful buildings throughout the Historic Area. The variety of early
stone houses, brick commercial blocks and Victorian homes has
been preserved over our 200 years of growth. This cultural heritage
is something that needs to be discovered on foot.

Brockville is rich in
history being settled in
1785. City Hall is a fine
example of the
architecture that exists
today in the downtown
area. The building, which
was constructed in 1864,
was once a farmers’
market. Today it houses
the municipal
government and the
market is now found next
door on Market Street
West.
The public is welcome to
visit “Victoria Hall”
anytime during the week from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Any questions pertaining to
the city or services can be brought to the front desk. Most city billings including
taxes, licenses, water, tickets, etc. can be paid at the Revenue Office, located
within the front doors on the left.
City Hall is comprised of the Mayor’s and Clerk’s office, Economic Development,
Treasury, Planning/Building and Human Resources found in the Victoria Hall
building; Community Services and Operations found at the Gord Watts Centre on
North Augusta Road; Police located on Parkedale Avenue and Fire - main station
located on Laurier Boulevard. City services include maintaining the roads, lights,
water and sewers, as well as 16 islands, 38 parks (including a campground), two
arenas, harbour, arts centre, 10 athletic fields and 7 km of walking trails.
The municipal government consists of a mayor and nine councillors (three each
from the three wards – east, central and west) who are elected for a 4-year term.

The municipality levies the taxes for the city and
the school board. Taxes are based upon
assessment (this is the value of your home, as
determined by the Provincial Assessment
office). The assessment of your residence is
multiplied by the tax rate. The school tax rate is
determined by the province. The municipal tax
rate is determined by the Municipal Council.
Based on a $100,000 home; $1338.63
municipal $252.00 school for a total of
$1590.63*.
The Revenue Office is responsible for the
issuance of interim and final tax bills. We
process supplementary bills as well as
adjustments. A variety of application forms are
available on-line or in the Revenue Office such
as vacancy rebate, adjustments for fire,
demolition class charges, etc. under section 357
of the Municipal Act. We also issue tax certificates.
The property tax year runs from January to December. Taxes may be paid at any
chartered bank, by computer or telephone banking, by mail or at City Hall. Taxes
are invoiced in two installments, the first due in March and the final payment due
in September. Residents have the option of a monthly payment plan through
automatic bank withdrawals.

Brockville was established on the north bank of the St. Lawrence River, and
initially expanded east and west, from the river north to the CNR railway line.
With the development of Highway 401, the city continued to grow northerly, and
now encompasses approximately 2.5 square miles. A description is given for the
types of housing found in each section of the city, as well as the surrounding
townships of Elizabethtown-Kitley and Augusta. (See map layout of city found in
centre section of book.)
WEST END
This section of the city runs from the river north
to the railway tracks and west of Perth Street to
the city limits. The architecture is a mix of
heritage styles found closer to the waterfront to
recently built modern styles. There are many
choices from executive high-end priced homes
(many with river views), to moderate older brick
homes. The following is a description of some
of the more recent developed areas.
Country Club Place - A condominium development on the river across from the
golf course consisting of 3-storey townhouses overlooking the river.
Brock Woods - The first homes were built in 1991. There is a wide mix of single
family homes, from 1200 sq. ft. bungalows to 2600 sq. ft. 2-storey model semidetached dwellings.
Pearl Street West - This small cul-de-sac, within the Brock Woods subdivision,
contains 22 homes including single family units on oversized lots, “lifestyle”
semi-detached bungalows.
Susanna Lane - upscale townhouses on the North side of King Street West.
Butlers Creek – Found at the west end of Church Street, this development of 52
freehold attached town homes are a popular retirement location. Snow-removal
and grass-cutting is done under a group contract, at a nominal monthly cost. The
majority of the units are 2 bedroom/2 bath bungalows, the balance being 2storey/3 bedroom units.

DOWNTOWN
This area encompasses the downtown
core from the river to the CN line
between Perth Street and Park Street.
The homes are a mixture of heritage
culture made of stone or brick to a
modest income dwelling. Numerous
apartments above the stores,
townhouse as well as duplexes and
condos along the river makes this a
truly versatile socio-economic area. All
have easy access to the City’s
waterfront parks and walking trails.
Condominiums - Along the waterfront
there are three condo establishments
as well as seniors apartment
complexes. The 72 unit Executive

9
EAST END
The east end is comprised of the area from the river to the railway line and from
Park Street to the city limits at Oxford Avenue. Homes tend to be higher quality in
some sections, many heritage dwellings found especially closer to the downtown.
Higher end homes are located east of the downtown core including a stately row of
mansions along King Street reminding us of the elite culture that has been present
in Brockville for centuries. Most moderate homes are 25-125 years old including
several larger ones
CENTRAL
This next section describes the
homes that are found centrally in the
community which is the area divided
between the CN railway line and
Highway 401. Homes here are
generally up to 60 years old and
generally tend to be fairly well
maintained with generous size lots.
NORTH END
Brockvillians, when talking about the north
end, refer to the mass development of the
city north of Highway 401 to the city’s
northerly limits. This section of the city
began it’s growth with the boom of
development in the 1970s including
commercial development along Parkedale
Avenue. As the community continued to
grow the blocks expanded eastwardly. The
styles include bungalows to split-levels, 2storey modern to executive styles including
attached garages. Many apartment clusters
are also found in the north as well as senior
residences. The following are descriptions
of just a few of the blocks recently
developed.

Let Brockville and the surrounding
communities create some happy trails in
your life. The Brock Trail is a 7km scenic
pathway that runs along Brockville's beautiful
waterfront and through city parks. Historic
plaques are found along the trails to provide
a glimpse of the past. Passing through
Brockville is the Lake Ontario Waterfront Trail
that takes you to the Quebec Border going
east and Niagara-on-the-Lake going west.
Communities in the 1000 Islands area are
connected by the Thousands Islands
Parkway, a 37km stretch of roadway and
path running along the river. Biking
enthusiasts can enjoy amazing views as they
visit Brockville, Rockport and Gananoque.
Today Brockville manages to offer all the
amenities of a large city while keeping a
relaxed demeanor. During the hot and lazy
days of summer residents, visitors and
tourists from around the world come to
Brockville to fish, sail, camp, golf (at five local
courses!), scuba dive, cycle, and hike.
THE ST. LAWRENCE RIVER IS TO DIVE
FOR. This region – dubbed Caribbean North
- is getting a reputation as the hottest fresh
water scuba diving destination in the world.
The sunken shipwrecks, from steel freighters
to old schooners, are well preserved. Did you
know? Zebra mussels – which filter water
and algae – are credited with giving the St.
Lawrence River waters amazing levels of
clarity and drawing divers to its underwater
attractions of historical shipwrecks.
Did you know? There are actually an
estimated 1,864 islands in the 1000 islands.
Tom Thumb Island is reputed to be smallest
though many dispute that claim as folklore.
Wolfe Island near Kingston is the largest.
Brockville starts at the east end of the scenic
1000 Islands Parkway. Along
the Parkway – which runs parallel to the St.
Lawrence River – is a 37-kilometre paved
bike trail, a popular pastime for walkers,
cyclists and joggers. It’s picturesque detour
just off the Highway 401 between Brockville
and Gananoque that should not be missed.
Look for Singer Castle rising from Dark
Island in the St. Lawrence River just past
Brown’s Bay Provincial Park, a favourite
picnic and beach area just west of Brockville.

beautiful communities in Ontario. As the
eastern gateway to the 1000 Islands, we
offer one of the most accessible waterfronts
and many of Canada’s historical treasures.

price is subject to change. Enbridge Gas reviews the price quarterly and adjusts the
price charged to customers accordingly.
For more information call 1-877-ENBRIDGE for service information.
PURCHASE GAS VARIANCE ACCOUNT
We set our gas supply prices for customers
every three months based on the market
forecast for the cost of natural gas for the next
12 month period. However natural gas prices
change continually throughout the year. Due to
the fluctuation of gas prices in the market there
is an ongoing difference between the forecast
cost charged to customers each month by
Enbridge and the actual cost that we pay for
the gas. The difference between our forecast
costs and actual costs is tracked in an account
called the Purchase Gas Variance Account (PGVA).
TELECOMMUNICATIONS
Brockville has high band/high speed
telecommunication capability provided by
