What is Asset Management?

In Northern Bruce Peninsula, we rely on assets to keep our community running smoothly. These include:

  • Roads and bridges
  • Fleet
  • Parks and Public spaces
  • Water and Wastewater services

Asset management planning (AMP) is an ongoing and long-term process that allows MNBP to make the best possible investment decisions for infrastructure. To assist municipalities the province implemented the Asset Management Planning for Municipal Infrastructure Regulation, O. Reg. 588/17 (as amended by O. Reg. 193/21). The goal of this regulation is to help improve the way MNBP plans for infrastructure.

Key Milestones

July 1, 2019: Date for municipalities to have a finalized strategic asset management policy that promotes best practices and links asset management planning with budgeting, operations, maintenance and other municipal planning activities.

July 1, 2022: Date for municipalities to have an approved asset management plan for core assets (roads, bridges and culverts, water, wastewater and stormwater management systems) that identifies current levels of service and the cost of maintaining those levels of service.

July 1, 2024: Date for municipalities to have an approved asset management plan for all municipal infrastructure assets that identifies current levels of service and the cost of maintaining those levels of service.

July 1, 2025: Date for municipalities to have an approved asset management plan for all municipal infrastructure assets that builds upon the requirements set out in 2024. This includes an identification of proposed levels of service, what activities will be required to meet proposed levels of service, and a strategy to fund these activities.

MNBP has completed the first three milestones of this process and are requesting the assistance from residents to complete Phase 4.

Moderation Policy

In partnership with the Ontario Clean Water Agency (OCWA), the Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula (NBP) is undertaking Water and Wastewater Master Plans for the communities of Tobermory and Lion’ Head.

Currently, existing water and wastewater servicing is limiting potential growth within these communities. The goal of the Master Plans is to develop a preferred strategy to provide water and wastewater services in each community for today and for future development and beyond. The Master Plans will take into consideration climate change and social and economic impacts, as well as current limitations to each community's growth, given the existing infrastructure.

The Current Approach for the Master Plans is Approach No.1 per the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Process (broad master planning where identified projects are subject to project specific requirements).
