Asset Management Plan |
The Province implemented O. Reg. 588/17: Asset Management Planning for Municipal Infrastructure to help improve the way municipalities plan for their infrastructure. The regulation builds on the progress municipalities have made while bringing consistency and standardization to asset management plans to help spread best practices throughout the sector and enable the collection of comparable data. Visit the Government of Ontario website for more information on Municipal Asset Management Planning. The Township of East Garafraxa is pleased to present the Asset Management Plan 2022 (AMP). The AMP is concerned only with "core assets", namely Roads, Bridges, Culverts and Water System. Other assets such as buildings, vehicles, land, land improvements, technology, and other equipment are not included, however, those assets will be included in the next version of the AMP which is required by Regulation to be completed by June 2024. In the case of the Township, core assets make up most of the tangible capital assets owned by the Township. Data on core assets in the 2024 AMP will be updated and expanded beyond what is disclosed in this 2022 AMP. The format of the AMP is in five sections, a structure recommended by the Ontario Government 2013 publication Building Together: Guide for Municipal Asset Management Plans. But due to developments that have arisen since 2013, the Township has added sections on Climate Change Impacts, and a section to disclose the Regulation 588/17. |
