| Building Together: Guide for Municipal Asset Management Plans |
| The provincial document, Building Together: Guide for Municipal Asset Management (AM) Plans, describes Asset Management planning as a process of making the best possible decisions regarding the building, operation, maintenance, renewal, replacement and disposal of infrastructure assets. It is an integrated approach involving all Town departments to realize value from existing and new assets. The objective is to maximize benefits, manage risk, and provide satisfactory levels of service to the public in a sustainable manner recognizing ongoing responsibility and costs to asset ownership into the future. Asset Management requires a thorough understanding of the characteristics and conditions of infrastructure assets, as well as service levels expected from them. It also involves setting strategic priorities to optimize decision-making about when and how to proceed with investments. Financial plans and strategies are a key component to putting asset management into action. Asset management planning manages physical assets in a way that is socially, environmentally, and economically sustainable in the long term.

The report card provides a high level overview of the condition of our assets, infrastructure gap, average service state and lifecycle cost of our assets. The report card is an assessment of the condition of four primary asset categories of core infrastructure: drinking water systems, sewer collection systems, stormwater networks and transportation infrastructure. The report card shows that the Town owns approximately **$2.84 Billion** of Infrastructure assets. The results of the infrastructure report cards answer three pivotal questions: 1. What do we own? 2. What is it worth? 3. What condition is it in? |
