1 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Town of Oakville Asset Management Plan December 2017

2 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan 1. Executive Summary The Town of Oakville has been on the Asset Management journey since 2008 when the town made a choice to further leverage the PSAB 3150 initiative to embark on developing a comprehensive Asset Management plan. In 2013, the need for asset management plans was further enhanced by the announcement from the Ministry of Infrastructure stipulating that in order to qualify for future higher level government funding Municipalities must have an asset management plan. At this time the Province published a document Building Together Guide for Municipal Asset Management Plans that set out the minimum requirements to be include in an Asset Management Plan. In order to meet this requirement staff responded by submitting a report for council November 18, 2013 and including an Asset Management Plan section in the Year Capital Forecast which outlined how the Town met the various elements and identified areas where additional refinement would be recommended over the coming years. Since that time, staff became aware of the Asset Management standard set out by ISO and set out specific goals to further enhance the town s Asset Management plan. Going forward, the Asset Management Plan will be adjusted to meet the recent O. Reg. 588/17: Asset Management Planning for Municipal Infrastructure (formerly, Bill 6: Infrastructure for Jobs and Prosperity Act, 2015). Therefore, next steps were established to refresh the asset management strategy, policy and governance structure to include: An Asset Management Roadmap from 2016 to 2021 An enterprise approach to Asset Management; Consistent with the organization s strategic goals Fully integrated with the organization s sustainability goals Follow ISO guidelines Develop a Levels of Service framework for all asset classes Establish clear linkage between asset-specific performance and both customer service and sustainability goals History of Asset Management Practices 1950 Fix it when it breaks 1970 Asset Life Cycle/Maintenance Planning 1980 True Cost of Service; Timing of Asset Replacement, Australia 2000 International Infrastructure Management Manual 2000, New Zealand 2009 PSAB 3150 Tangible Capital Asset Accounting 2014 ISO Asset Management System 2017/20018 O. Reg. 588/17 (formerly, Bill 6, Asset Management Planning Regulation)

3 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan As a result, staff have been working with an outside consulting firm CH2M to accomplish these goals and are pleased to report that the following has been accomplished to date and will be presented to Council along with the 2018 long-term forecast in February 2018: a. Approved Asset Management Policy approved by Council Appendix A b. Strategic Asset Management Plan (SAMP) - Appendix B c. Revised State of Local Infrastructure Report (SOIR) for all Asset Classes Appendix C and D In addition to the above accomplishments, CH2M also conducted an assessment of the town s asset management practices, policies and plans to determine the current level of maturity compared to ISO guidelines and then develop a work plan with short-term, medium term and long term goals. Based on the Comprehensive Asset Management Review and Assessment (CAMRA) completed by CH2M, the town is currently a Level 2 asset management maturity, with some aspects being a Level 3 as illustrated in Figure 1.1 below. Further details have been included in sections 3.4 and 5 of the SAMP. Figure 1.1: Town of Oakville Asset Management Maturity By implementing the initiatives in the asset management roadmap provided in Appendix A of the SAMP, the Town will move towards a maturity level of 3-4 over the next 5 years.

4 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan 2. What is an Asset Management Plan (AMP) The purpose of an AMP is to provide a comprehensive document that will guide corporate decision-making in regards to the construction (new and existing), operation, maintenance, rehabilitation, replacement, capacity expansion, and disposal of the Town s assets while minimizing risk and costs to the Town and its taxpayers and maximizing service delivery. Good asset management means making decisions based on the lowest long-term cost over the entire lifecycle of the asset, rather than short-term savings, and managing assets in a way that balances service levels, risk and costs in a sustainable manner. One of the most important objectives of an AMP is to demonstrate how the town s overarching strategic goals and organizational plan align with the asset management policies, strategy and objectives or better known as line of sight in ISO Figure 1-2 below demonstrates what is meant by line of sight by illustrating the link between organizational goals, policy, AM strategy and AMP s. How the Town s assets are managed, including the financial sustainability over their life and how they are operated plays a key role in achieving the town s strategic goals and objectives. Many of these goals and objectives are reliant on the long-term sustainability of the Town s infrastructure; therefore, one of the aims of a SAMP is to put in place a clear line of sight between those high-level objectives and the day-to-day activities carried out on the assets, as shown in Figure 2.1. Asset Management is a coordinated activity of an organization to realize value from assets. Asset management involves the balancing of costs, opportunities and risks against the desired performance of assets, to achieve the organizational objectives. Source: ISO 55000

5 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Figure 2.1: Asset Management Line of Sight In conjunction with CH2M, staff have developed a Strategic Asset Management Plan (SAMP) which sets out the asset management strategy for the Town of Oakville (the Town) and focuses on creating a line of sight between the Town s organizational objectives, asset management objectives, and day-to-day asset management activities. In addition, an Asset Management Policy (A-BMG-004) was prepared and approved by Council in September 2017 which clearly defines the key principles and expectations for asset management. Details of the town s Asset Management Policy and SAMP can be found in Appendix A and B respectively.

6 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan 3. Introduction In 2008, the Town of Oakville made a decision to leverage the PSAB 3150 initiative into developing comprehensive asset management processes and systems. Asset management assists in protecting and enhancing the quality of life in Oakville by leveraging the best possible asset information leading to better decisions about our assets pipes, buildings, roads and parks in a way that maintains the levels of service and manages risk in a cost-effective manner. The town will manage our infrastructure assets in a strategic, comprehensive, enterprise wide manner through an integrated business approach that relies on well devised strategies, trained knowledgeable staff, and good communication with all stakeholders to achieve desired levels of service. This requires that all assets be treated as interrelated components in a unified system, rather than as isolated parts. The Town of Oakville s asset management system incorporates the following asset management principles: Forward-Looking and Sustainable: The town will incorporate social, legislative, environmental and financial considerations into decisions, taking into account present and future service commitments, giving due attention to the long-term stewardship of assets. Sound Asset Information: The town will collect, collate, control, and circulate the right asset information, at the right time, informing the right asset management decision-making. Robust, Repeatable and Transparent Decision Making: The town will utilize a formal but scalable, consistent, and repeatable approach to manage infrastructure assets, enabling services to be provided in the most efficient and cost-effective manner. Whole Life Cycle Cost Perspective: The town will consider the combined impact of all aspects of the asset life-cycle acquiring, operating, maintaining, renewing, and retiring assets. No new assets will be constructed/acquired without considering future operating and maintenance costs. Asset performance will be monitored throughout the asset life cycle and will be used to inform recommendations on future asset acquisition. Risk-Based Perspective: The town will direct resources, expenditures, and priorities to achieve the agreed service outcomes and benefits, at acceptable levels of risk.

7 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan People-Focused (Customers and Staff): The town will adopt a serviceability-based approach to managing our assets and will only accommodate additional demand for services without detriment to current levels of service. The town will recruit, train, and retain the right staff. The Town of Oakville since 2008 has maintained a complete inventory of all the town s assets in the town s Corporate Information System (CIS). Our CIS inventory currently is integrated to the Town s GIS system which will facilitate spatial analysis and provide an ability to confirm physical inventory for audit purposes. This will give the town an ability to coordinate capital spending among asset types. An example of this is Road Replacement with Storm System Replacement. As well this will provide an easier avenue to share our information with our regional level of government for better coordination. The current Asset Management Plan (AMP) has been developed following the Provincial requirements as outlined in Building Together Guide for Municipal Asset Management Plans, as well as guidance provided in the International Infrastructure Management Manual. Going forward, the Asset Management Plan will be adjusted to meet O. Reg. 588/17: Asset Management Planning for Municipal Infrastructure (formerly, Bill 6: Infrastructure for Jobs and Prosperity Act, 2015) and ISO standards for Asset Management and will be a component of the ten year financial plan. Currently the plan includes the following sections listed below but will be expanded to include a maintenance strategy and more thorough whole life costing component: State of Local Infrastructure Expected Levels of Service Asset Management Strategy Financing Strategy Plan Improvement and Monitoring Asset management is important because it helps protect the quality of life in Oakville by ensuring the best possible decisions regarding our assets. The plan supports evidence-based businesses cases for budgets and long-term financial forecasts. It is the foundation for longer term thinking and planning to support financial sustainability.

8 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan 4. State of Local Infrastructure The Town of Oakville owns a sizable portfolio of assets, which vary significantly in terms of their function, age, durability, and many other factors. The purpose of the State of Infrastructure Report (SOIR) is to provide a summary of the key physical attributes and current physical state of the asset portfolio. The SOIR only provides information about the physical asset and not whether it is meeting service provision. This section of the plan identifies asset types, accounting valuation and replacement cost valuation, asset age distribution and asset age as a proportion of expected useful life and asset condition. This information is supported by the town s Corporate Information System (CIS) which forms the database for all town assets. This system holds asset records for individual assets and groups of assets and contains details such as asset type, class, description, location, useful life, historical cost, replacement cost, depreciation and condition. This SOIR also provides background on the Town s Quality Rating System (QRS) for parks and park assets.

9 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan 5. Expected Levels of Service The Town s Asset Management Program focuses on three fundamental goals: Providing sustainable, high quality service to customers Optimizing asset value while minimizing life cycle costs and ensuring that assets are financially sustainable over the life of the assets Managing risks to the delivery of established service levels An important objective to meeting these fundamental goals is to have well defined Customer Levels of Service (LOS). ISO best practices indicate that asset management objectives should be in the form of Level of Service (LOS) measures, which cascade vertically from Corporate measures to Technical measures. Figure 5.1 below shows how LOS measures can be aligned from the corporate performance vision, down to day to day asset management decision making (at the Technical LOS level), ultimately enabling customers to assess the suitability, affordability, and equity of services offered. (draft Strategic Asset Management Plan) Figure 5.1: Asset Management Line of Sight

10 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Currently the Town has well defined Corporate LOS which have been set out in Council s Strategic Plan and Vision The key principles and objectives in these plans have cascaded down and been embedded into all other various strategic plans which set out Customer LOS and targets within each of them. For example, the Fire Master Plan sets out the service delivery standards for fire response times and recommends new stations or relocations to make improvements to those times or to service new growth areas. A list of the various Master Plans and strategic documents can be found in section of the SAMP. In addition, through work on the town s program based performance based budget (PB2), key performance indicators (KPI s) were created for all town programs in order to measure actual program results against expected outcomes and monitor trends over time. These KPI s serve for the most part as Technical LOS for the town s programs and services and have been reported in the annual Operating Budget books since Many of these KPI s are directly related to how infrastructure will be maintained and how service will be delivered, but others may be linked indirectly as well maintained infrastructure leads to effective delivery of service. Specific examples are: Number of winter storm events that met town standard for snow clearing 2017: projecting 4 (100%) trending 100% for the past 5 years, therefore meeting targets Transit ridership 2017: projecting 2,933,900 trending and increase the last 3 years, therefore meeting targets Square metres of public indoor recreation space per capita : 0.41m2/capita trending constant for last 5 years, therefore meeting targets. Percent of deficient pavement with the network 2017: 8.5 trending down, therefore meeting targets KPI s for each specific program area can be found in within the 2018 Operating Budget and Forecast document; each Program Business Plan provides key performance indicators specific to program practices and operations including past results and expected outcomes. Next steps in the asset management work plan are to clearly define Customer LOS and consolidate them into one document in order to establish clear linkages between the Corporate LOS. Work completed to date through the SAMP has established a qualitative overview of the Level of Service delivered for each network of assets, as assessed against a set of core Customer Values including: Accessibility; Quality; Availability; Reliability; Safety; and Shine (aesthetics).

11 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan 6. Asset Management Strategy The asset management strategy is the set of planned actions that will enable the assets to provide the desired service in a sustainable way, while managing risk and at the lowest lifecycle cost. The asset management strategy outlines plans for renewal/rehab activities, maintenance activities, replacements, disposals and expansion to service. The strategy should also address actions or policies that can lower costs or extend asset life. 6.1 Strategic Asset Management Plan and Policy The Town s asset management approach is to align their asset-related activities to the desired customer LOS and to meet their asset management vision to create customer value through enhancing community asset management. There are a number of corporate documents that guide and direct the planning and management of assets and these go some way towards translating organizational goals into asset management objectives. The Town s Asset Management Policy and SAMP form the framework for establishing a clear line of sight between the corporate objectives and strategies and the overall Asset Management Program. The Town s asset management-related strategic documents include: Asset Management Policy Capital and Operating Budget Policies Asset Management General Policy (for Tangible Capital Assets) Asset-Specific Policies Procedures Strategic Plan To put in place the necessary line of sight between organizational goals and asset management objectives, the Town has developed an Asset Management Policy that includes a set of asset management principles, which support delivery of the Town s strategic goals and objectives. As stated in the Town s Asset Management Policy, the Town intends to manage infrastructure assets in a strategic, comprehensive, enterprise wide manner through an integrated business approach that relies on well devised strategies, trained knowledgeable staff, and good communication with all stakeholders to achieve desired LOS. This requires that all assets be treated as interrelated components in a unified system, rather than as isolated parts.

12 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Figure 6.1 shows a high-level, best practice model AMS from the Institute of Asset Management (IAM) that the Town will work on detailing and customizing for the next version of this SAMP, once more of the Town s asset management processes have been developed. Figure 6.1: General AMS Model

13 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan The town s SAMP is the basis for delivery of the Asset Management Policy, efficient compliance with the business needs, and achievement of corporate goals. Some of the key corporate strategic planning documents include: Strategic Plan Vision 2057 Livable Oakville Official Plan Let's Be Livable Community Sustainability Plan Cultural Plan Environmental Strategic Plan Parks, Recreation, and Library Facilities Master Plan Fire Master Plan Switching Gears Transportation Master Plan Active Transportation Master Plan Transit 5 Year Review Development Charges Background Study Many of these documents not only set out the Corporate Strategic goals, but also set the service standards for the delivery of various programs and services and outline the asset requirements necessary to meet changing demand as a result of population and employment growth, changing demographics, legislation and changes in demand and/or popularity of services. More information can be found in sections 2 and 3 of the SAMP. 6.2 Asset Management Planning Practices and Procedures The Town s Long-term Capital Forecast and Financing Strategy has been built on the foundation of Council s strategic goals resulting from many of the studies undertaken under Vision 2057 and the Strategic Workplan. In addition, the town s Annual Budget Policy (F-FPC-002) states that the town is committed to accountable and fiscally responsible financial management. Decisions made with regards to the operating budget, capital budget, staff complement and reserve management are consistent with the goals set out by Council in its Strategic Plan and ensure that budget plans support economic growth, maintain ageing infrastructure, respond to changing needs and are fiscally responsible. This policy includes key budget principles such as Affordability, Sustainability, Interdependancy, Multi-year budgeting and Performance Based.

14 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Overall, the annual update of the Long-term capital plan identifies the capital needs necessary to ensure current service levels are maintained for the various programs offered across the town. The town s capital forecast not only plans for renewal and replacement of existing infrastructure used to support town services, but also takes into consideration future needs. The Executive Summary portion of the Long-term Capital Forecast explains the strategies on how to evaluate or prioritize capital projects within the town have been developed which consider the benefit of the project to the community, health and safety or legislative requirements and alignment of the project with council s strategic goals. In general, the Long-term Capital Forecast is built on a framework based on drivers in which to review and assess capital project needs. Infrastructure Renewal - The information stored in the Corporate Information System (CIS) is used to prepare the Infrastructure Renewal Capital Plan based on life cycle replacement and scheduled maintenance programs. Condition of assets is then evaluated at the beginning of each budget cycle to optimize the life of the assets while balancing risk of unanticipated failures. It is the town s practice that as replacement of assets are executed, existing assets are disposed and any salvage value is transferred into the capital reserves. Capital projects included in this section address renewal/rehab activities, major repairs and replacements for all asset types. Maintenance activities, including regularly scheduled inspections, preventative maintenance, and minor repairs are planned for in the town s work order management system and are funded from the town s operating budget. A repair and maintenance budget for each program has been included as part of the 2018 Operating Budget. This budget is also used to address unplanned repairs where emergency repairs are dealt with through the town s emergency repair policy. Currently, many policies and/or practices exist to establish best practices, process for usage optimization and procedures in managing failures within each of the departments. For example, in order to extend the useful life of a conventional bus it is the town s practice to complete a major refurbishment of each bus after 7-9 years which increases the life expectancy of the bus on average by 4 years. Over the next few years staff plans to consolidate all of these best practices and procedures into one document as part of the Asset Management strategy. Growth every 5 years a Development Charges Background Study is undertaken which outlines in detail the infrastructure required in order to maintain service levels as the town s population and employment grows. Detailed projects are included for the various asset classifications that would be required to meet program needs for Fire, Library, Recreation, Parks, Parking, Roads, Road Operations and Transit which have been identified through various Master Plan needs assessments. On an annual basis project needs are re-evaluated based on actual population and employment growth development.

15 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan One of the key budget principles included in the Annual Budget Policy it the need to address Interdependency in which the operating and capital budgets must be reviewed with a coordinated effort as capital expenditures and financing decisions will impact future operating budgets. As well as the need for Multi-Year Budgets multi-year budgets will be developed for operating and capital expenditures according to an approved guideline. Multi-year budgets will incorporate the operating impacts of capital initiatives. As such it is the town s practice to include all anticipated operational costs in the detailed sheet for each capital project in particular for growth. These operating impacts include additional personnel, materials and supplies, utilities, contracted services, transfers to reserve for future replacement of assets and any revenues associated with fees for service. As a result, the Long-term Forecast not only outlines 10 Year capital requirements but also a 10 year forecast of the operating cost required to support those assets. Community Enhancement and Strategic Priorities - projects for planned expansion activities that support infrastructure requirements to meet various community needs as identified through Master Plan updates and to meet Council s strategic goals. Enterprise Initiatives projects to maintain and enhance the town s three self-supporting programs; Harbours, Cemeteries and Parking. Master plans for each area are completed on a re-occuring basis to review operations and identify improvements. Capital and Operating costs are funded from revenues generated by each area with residual surplus or deficit transferred to individual reserves set up for each. 6.3 Organizational Opportunities and Challenges The town s suite of strategic planning documents sets out the environmental and business context of the town. In developing the SAMP the town identified several opportunities and challenges that may arise along the asset management journey and with the various objectives set out. These have been discussed in section 3.2 and 3.3 of the SAMP.

16 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan 7. Financing Strategy This section contains the financial plan for putting the asset management plan into action. The financial information discussed in this section is based on the best available information to date. For current period, the 2017 Capital Budget and 2018 Base Operating Budget are used; both of which are currently available on the town s website. Please note that the development of the 2018 Capital Budget is currently underway and expected to be released in February 2018 which will incorporate changes identified in the recent update of the Development Charges Background Study underway. Plans for the ongoing improvement of information quality and the planning process will be an integral part of the Town s Corporate Asset Management Program going forward. In order to ensure the effective implementation of the AMP, it is important that it is integrated with the Town s financial planning and long-term budgeting process as well as departmental master plans. The development of a comprehensive financial plan that reflects the timely rehabilitation and maintenance of assets will allow the town to identify the financial resources required for sustainable asset management based on long term asset needs, agreed LOS, legislative requirements, and projected growth requirements. Having a financial plan is critical for putting the AMP into action. In addition, by having a strong financial plan, the town can demonstrate that they have made a concerted effort to integrate asset management planning with financial planning and budgeting and to make full use of all available infrastructure financing tools. This section of the AMP contains information related to the historical and forecast capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operating expenditure (OPEX) required to deliver the agreed LOS and ensure an appropriate level of asset stewardship. 7.1 Historical Capital and Operating Expenditures Capital expenditures are defined as expenditures that are of sufficient monetary value to warrant capitalization and the resulting assets have a useful economic life of more than 1 year. The Town s accounting guidelines state that a purchase will be considered a capital expenditure if it has physical substance and meets the following criteria: is held for use in the production or supply of goods and services, for rental to others, for administrative purposes or for the development, construction, maintenance, or repair of other capital assets has been acquired, constructed or developed to be used on a continuing basis has a useful economic life extending beyond 1 year is not intended for sale in the ordinary course of business it is of sufficient monetary value to warrant capitalization

17 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan The Town has chosen to present budget information rather than expenditure information in order to align with other financial reports. Budget information contains the full cost of the project even though the project expenditure may occur over more than one year. From an asset management perspective, it is important to understand what the drivers for investment have been over recent years and to understand how expenditure has changed year on year (if that is the case) as this will have an effect on how the asset base behaves in the future along with the associated future funding requirements. The capital forecast is built on a framework based on drivers in which to review and assess capital project needs. As some financing sources are specific for only certain types of projects, all financial tools available to the town need to be managed as a whole with the overall fiscal picture in mind. Therefore, the capital forecast is built on a framework based on the five classification drivers shown in Figure 7.1 below. Figure 7.1: Capital Forecast Framework The operating budget is prepared using the performance based program based budgeting (PB2) methodology Historical Capital Expenditure Based on the best available information to date, for current period, the 2017 Capital Budget is used. As such, historical capital budget information is provided for 2015 and Please note that the development of the 2018 Capital Budget is currently underway and expected to be released in February 2018.

18 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Capital projects add value to the Town s physical assets or significantly increase their useful life. The total value of town capital projects was $73.5 million in 2015 and $99.8 million in Figure 7.2 below provides a breakdown of the historical capital budgets by classification. For further information, please refer to the 2015 Capital Budget and 2016 Capital Budget documents. Figure 7.2: 2015 and 2016 Capital Budget by Classification (in millions) Historical Operating Expenditure Based on the best available information to date, for current period, the 2018 Operating Budget is used. As such, historical operating budget information is provided for 2016 and The total operating budget was $297.7 million in 2016 and $308.5 million in Figure 7.3 below provides a breakdown of the operating budgets by cost component. For further information, please refer to the 2016 Operating Budget and 2017 Operating Budget documents which are available on the town s website.

Annually, Town staff prepare a one year adopted capital budget and nine year forecast and a one year adopted operating budget and two year forecast.

20 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Capital Expenditure Forecast Typically, a current year budget and the following nine year capital forecast is prepared and presented to Council as part of the annual budget process. Council approves the current year capital budget and, in some instances, approves the budget for projects where construction will span multiple years. Council also approves, in principle, the following nine years. The approved capital budget represents a significant investment in the development and rehabilitation of capital infrastructure and associated studies to support the provision of services to the current and future citizens of the Town. The budget considers the capital requirements of growth alongside maintaining existing infrastructure. In the preparation of the budget, consideration is given to actual costs incurred in the past for similar projects, current priorities, the impact on future operating budgets, feedback gathered through the public input process, availability of staff resources to undertake and properly manage the program, and the available sources of revenue to fund the program. The capital forecast and financial plan implement objectives set out in the various master plans and strategic goals while maintaining fiscal sustainability and ensuring fiscal policies are adhered to. The capital forecast totals $1,040 million over 10 years of which $122.8 million in gross expenditures was approved for Figure 7.4 below illustrates a breakdown of the 2017 to 2026 capital program by classification. For further information, please refer to the 2017 Capital Budget document. Figure 7.4: (10 year total) Capital Program by Classification

Figure 7.5: Capital Program by Classification by Year Operating Expenditure Forecast The 2018 base operating budget totals $321.5 million. The base operating budget also includes the operating costs for new infrastructure and programs completed as part of the capital budget as well as infrastructure assumed by the town as new developments are completed. Figure 7.6 below provides a breakdown of the 2018 operating budget by cost component. For further information, please refer to the 2018 Operating Budget document.

22 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan 7.3 Sources of Funding Figure 7.6: 2018 Operating Budget by Cost Component The capital investment program is funded from a wide range of sources. Broadly speaking there are five main sources: Cash to capital revenue received in the financial year that is allocated to the capital program Debt external borrowing within strict limits Reserves the Town maintains several reserve funds that are built up and drawn down to cover peak in expenditure Other levels of government Provincial and Federal grants, subsidies and programs that may be ongoing or time limited Other third party funds such as developer charges

23 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan The following table provides an outline of the sources of funding that may be available to the Town; not all are currently utilized.

24 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Capital Funding Forecast The primary sources of funding for the $1,040 million proposed capital plan is the capital levy at $332.0 million, development charges at $260.1 million, building maintenance and equipment reserves at $140.0 million, and capital reserves at $139.1 million. Other significant funding sources are the gas tax reserve funds. Figure 7.8 below illustrates a breakdown of the 2017 to 2026 capital program by funding source. For further information, please refer to the 2017 Capital Budget document.

25 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Figure 7.7: (10 year total) Capital Program by Funding Source Operating Funding Forecast Figure 7.8 below illustrates the funding sources for the 2018 operating budget. Taxation revenues provide 58% of the funding. Fees and charges are the next largest source of funding at $71.5 million or 22%. Included in the fees and charges are increases to maintain cost recovery ratios for all programs. The 2018 budget includes a $5.5 million dividend from Oakville Hydro of which $1.9 million is included in the base budget. The balance of the dividend is transferred to the hydro reserve which supports the hospital debt charges. For further information, please refer to the 2018 Operating Budget document.

26 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Figure 7.8: 2018 Operating Budget Funding Sources 7.4 Capital Financing Policies and Assumptions The capital forecast and financing plan has been developed with the following financing policies and assumptions. These financial strategies form the basis of the town s strong financial position and are monitored to ensure the town s long-term financial position is sustained into the future:

27 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan Debt re-payment levels including the hospital commitment remain within the council approved policy limits; Outstanding debt to reserve levels do not exceed the 1:1 ratio required to maintain AAA credit rating; The 1% Capital levy increase is maintained over the 10 year period; Timing of Growth projects aligns with anticipated residential and non-residential development; Development Charge reserve funds return to a surplus position; Capital reserves are maintained at sufficient levels to minimize risk, support future initiatives and provide for unknown contingencies; Equipment reserves are maintained at sufficient levels to support on-going life cycle replacements; Building replacement reserve contributions are maintained and as new facilities are built contributions are increased phased over 5 years; 7.5 Funding Shortfall The town s approved 2018 Operating and Capital Forecast budgets have identified the financial needs required to support current level of services established and include plans to support existing infrastructure, expansion activities as well as various enhancements. Both budget have been fully financed as noted above, therefore the town does not have a funding shortfall. As work continues over the few years to further refine Customer LOS and established associated cost to deliver Customer LOS the financing strategy will be revised to address changes in priority and/or alternative financing tools explored as required.

28 Town of Oakville - Asset Management Plan 8. Plan Improvement and Monitoring This Asset Management Plan is a living document that will continue to reflect the evolution of asset management practices within the Town. The Town has embedded continual improvement into its Mission Statement and its Strategic Plan. From the Town s Mission Statement: We create and preserve Canada s most livable community that enhances the natural, cultural, social and economic environments. We achieve this by continuously improving programs and services that are both accessible and environmentally and fiscally sustainable. From the Town s Strategic Plan ( ): The Town s strategic plan is a continual work in progress. Over time, new priorities, new opportunities, new demands and new challenges will emerge, and incorporating annual business plans into the Town s strategic planning process ensures us the flexibility to respond quickly and effectively to these changing directions. In order to continually evaluate, review, and enhance its asset management practices, the Town is adopting a number of continual improvement activities and will promote a culture of continual improvement through disciplined performance management, performance benchmarking, and collection of customer feedback. The asset management improvement roadmap and improvement initiatives described in the SAMP are aligned with the Town s Strategic Plan and succeed in meeting the Town s mission, through continual improvement of the asset management system. Throughout implementation of the asset management improvement roadmap, annual reviews of the performance of the program will be conducted. The review will consist of internal evaluation, together with the results of benchmarking, audit results, and assessments of current and best practices. Furthermore, the Town s asset management plan will be adjusted to meet the requirements, including reporting requirements, of O. Reg. 588/17: Asset Management Planning for Municipal Infrastructure (formerly, Bill 6: Infrastructure for Jobs and Prosperity Act, 2015), within the prescribed timelines.

29 Appendix A Asset Management Policy

30 Policy Number A-BMG-004 Page: 1 of 2 Author: Financial Operations Authority: Council Asset Management Section: Administration Sub-Section: Business Management Effective Date: Council/CAO Approval Date Review by Date: 5 yrs from Approval Date Replaces/Last Modified: Policy Statement The Town of Oakville will protect and enhance the quality of life in Oakville by making the best possible decisions regarding Town of Oakville (town) assets in a way that provides targeted levels of service and manages risk in a cost-effective manner throughout the entire asset life cycle in order to create customer value through enhancing community asset management. The town will manage infrastructure assets in a strategic, comprehensive, enterprise wide manner through an integrated business approach that relies on well devised strategies, trained knowledgeable staff, and good communication with all stakeholders to achieve desired levels of service. This requires that all assets be treated as interrelated components in a unified system, rather than as isolated parts. Purpose This policy supports the town s four Key Strategic Directions.

37 SECTION 1 Executive Summary This Strategic Asset Management Plan (SAMP) sets out the asset management strategy for the Town of Oakville (the Town) and focuses on creating alignment between the Town s organizational objectives, asset management objectives, and day to day asset management activities. The purpose of this SAMP is to document the translation of organizational objectives into asset management objectives, describe the Asset Management System (AMS) and its use to support achievement of asset management objectives, and identify strategic asset management initiatives that the Town will implement to develop the AMS. The AMS demonstrates that the Town s assets are financially sustainable over the life of the assets. This SAMP covers all physical assets that are owned, operated, or maintained by the Town and managed through the AMS. Within the AMS assets are managed in a strategic, comprehensive, enterprise wide manner through an integrated business approach that relies on strategies, trained knowledgeable staff, and communication with stakeholders to achieve desired LOS. To put in place the necessary alignment the Town has developed an Asset Management Policy that includes principles that support delivery of the Town s strategic goals. The Town s asset management principles are summarized in Section 3.1. The Town staff completed a Comprehensive Asset Management Review and Assessment (CAMRA) with CH2M for assets that provide services for Road, Land Improvement, Environmental Networks, Facilities, Transit and Fleet. These results are provided in Section 5. The CAMRA sessions informed the current asset management maturity, as shown in Section 3.4. The Town is currently a Level 2, with some aspects being a Level 3. By implementing the initiatives in the asset management roadmap provided in Appendix A, the Town will move towards a maturity level of 3 4 over the next 5 years. To achieve the goal of increasing the asset management maturity levels, Town staff have determined an Asset Management Program. This program focuses on three fundamental goals: providing sustainable, high quality service to customers; optimizing asset value while minimizing life cycle costs, and; managing risks to the delivery of established service levels. The Asset Management Program will ensure the sound stewardship of the Town s assets to meet present and future asset management objectives. The Town s asset management objectives are in the form of levels of service (LOS) measures, which cascade vertically from Corporate LOS measures to Technical LOS measures. Further information on asset management objectives, and the Town s asset management decision making criteria, is provided in Section 4. Within the Town s Asset Management Program there are eight priority, short term, initiatives. The aim of each priority initiative is summarized in Table 1 2. Further information is provided in Section 5.2. Table 1 1.

39 Introduction This Strategic Asset Management Plan (SAMP) sets out the asset management strategy for the Town of Oakville (the Town) and focuses on creating a line of sight between the Town s organizational objectives, asset management objectives, and day to day asset management activities. The SAMP should be used to guide the setting of asset management objectives, and to describe the role of the asset management system in meeting these objectives. This includes the structures, roles, and responsibilities necessary to establish the asset management system and to operate it effectively. Effective asset management requires guidance from top management and delivery by empowered and competent employees. This SAMP is the overarching document that sets out the long term approach to asset management at the Town, along with the further development of the Town s asset management practices, derived from the Asset Management Policy. The Asset Management Policy defines expectations for the management of the Town s physical assets. The SAMP documents senior management commitment to implementing the Asset Management Policy, including commitment to allocate resources, roles, and responsibilities for its implementation. It is anticipated that the Asset Management Policy will remain constant over time, whereas the SAMP will evolve in response to internal and external changes faced by the Town. 2.1 Need and Purpose The Town is a complex service delivery organization with responsibility for managing a broad range of physical assets. To fulfill its obligations to deliver services to the community, the Town must ensure that assets supporting these services are managed in a way that balances service level delivery/performance, risk, and affordability. The majority of these assets are long lived, with useful lives measured in decades. The asset portfolio requires significant ongoing investment with operation, maintenance, renewal, and enhancement activities to ensure asset performance is supporting the delivery of services now and into the future. The Town s assets are essential to the well being of the community and have significant budget implications and, therefore, they need to form an integral part of the Town s long term financial and service delivery planning. The Town of Oakville, like many other municipalities, operates in an environment of budget constraints, resulting in an increasing risk of failing to maintain the existing infrastructure and the levels of service provided. Funding pressures are being created by having to balance capital investments between growth and renewal. This SAMP is a high level document aimed at supporting the delivery of the Asset Management Policy, which, in turn, supports delivery of the Town s corporate strategic goals and provides oversight for the asset life cycle activities required to support these goals. This approach provides a clear line of sight between Council s priorities and the day to day activities required to support service delivery. The overall purpose of this SAMP is to: Document information that specifies how organizational objectives have been translated into asset management objectives. Describe the asset management system (AMS) and its use to support achievement of asset management objectives, including delivery of appropriate levels of service (LOS) cost effectively, while meeting legislative requirements and having regard for the long term stewardship of the asset portfolio. Identify strategic asset management improvement initiatives that the Town will implement to develop the AMS. SL TOR CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY 2 1

40 SECTION 2 INTRODUCTION The establishment of asset management objectives should take into account the requirements of relevant stakeholders and of other financial, technical, legal, regulatory, and organizational requirements. These should be derived as part of the SAMP to provide the essential link between the organizational objectives and the Asset Management Plans (AMPs) that describe how those objectives are going to be achieved. The asset management objectives should be consistent and aligned with the organizational objectives, as well as the Asset Management Policy. This version of the SAMP focuses primarily on providing a roadmap to deliver the Town s asset management objectives. The Comprehensive Asset Management Review and Assessment (CAMRA) tool was used to provide a review of the current status of asset management maturity at the Town, as a baseline for identifying future asset management improvements. This SAMP also documents the existing situation, along with initiatives to further develop the Town s asset management objectives. 2.2 Scope This SAMP covers all physical assets that are owned, operated, or maintained by the Town including all assets that are funded through development charges. This SAMP does not include the strategy to maintain and enhance assets, which is covered separately in the Town s AMPs. 2.3 Related Corporate Documents There are a number of corporate documents that guide and direct the planning and management of assets and these go some way towards translating organizational goals into asset management objectives (e.g., the linkages between active healthy populations to the number of kilometers of active transportation network). The Town s asset management related strategic documents include: Asset Management Policy (pending Council approval) Asset Management General Policy (for Tangible Capital Assets) Asset Specific Policies: Land Land Improvement Buildings Equipment Vehicles Road Network Environmental Network Communications & Technology Procedures Strategic Plan CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY SL TOR

41 2.4 Asset Management System An AMS has various components in place to develop and govern asset management activities within an organization. Figure 2 1 shows a high level, best practice model AMS from the Institute of Asset Management (IAM) that the Town will work on detailing and customizing for the next version of this SAMP, once more of the Town s asset management processes have been developed.

42 Organizational Context The Town s asset management approach is to align their asset related activities to the desired customer LOS and to meet their asset management vision to create customer value through enhancing community asset management. As stated in the Town s Asset Management Policy, the Town intends to manage infrastructure assets in a strategic, comprehensive, enterprise wide manner through an integrated business approach that relies on well devised strategies, trained knowledgeable staff, and good communication with all stakeholders to achieve desired LOS. This requires that all assets be treated as interrelated components in a unified system, rather than as isolated parts. Asset management at the Town, therefore, relies on four key organizational components being integrated together to achieve the desired service outcomes: Well planned strategies Good physical assets Highly trained professionals, with respect to practices and procedures Integrated business processes These components, supported by appropriate technologies, provide a robust foundation for efficient service delivery. The Town s Asset Management Policy and SAMP form the framework for establishing a clear line of sight between the corporate objectives and strategies and the overall Asset Management Program. The Asset Management Program encompasses all aspects of the management of each asset through its life cycle by integrating with Council s Strategic Plan, Vision 2057, and other corporate strategic plans to align with the strategic objectives of the Town, as well as with other key business systems, legislation, and regulations. The philosophy is that asset management decisions will be based on: The triple bottom line (TBL) pillars of sustainability, that ensure economic, environmental, and social outcomes support the Town s long term goals. Applying the right intervention, to the right asset, at the right time recognizing risk and the Town s fiscal constraints. A whole life approach, ensuring that increases or enhancements to the Town s asset base consider impacts on the Town s ability to fund an asset s future maintenance and renewal.

43 SECTION 3 ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT 3.1 Strategic Alignment How the Town s assets are managed and operated plays a key role in achieving the Town s strategic goals and objectives. Many of these goals and objectives are reliant on the long term sustainability of the Town s infrastructure; therefore, one of the aims of this SAMP is to put in place a clear line of sight between those high level objectives and the day to day activities carried out on the assets, as shown in Figure Alignment with Corporate Strategic Plans Figure 3 1. Asset Management Line of Sight To put in place the necessary line of sight, the Town has developed an Asset Management Policy that includes a set of asset management principles, which support delivery of the Town s strategic goals and objectives. The Town s asset management principles are as follows: Forward Looking and Sustainable Sound Asset Information Robust, Repeatable and Transparent Decision Making Whole Life Cycle Cost Perspective Risk Based Perspective People Focused (Customers and Staff) This SAMP is the basis for delivery of the Asset Management Policy, efficient compliance with the business needs, and achievement of corporate goals. Key corporate strategic planning documents include: Strategic Plan sets out the strategic direction for the Town over the term of Council. It serves as the framework to help guide Council s decision making and resource allocation during the four year term of office. It includes five key areas of focus for : (1) Good governance, (2) Environmental leadership, (3) Economic growth, (4) Fiscal sustainability, and (5) Outstanding service to residents. The focus areas are connected to specific action items, key measures, and targets, which drive the plan towards Council s vision to be the most livable town in Canada. 3 2 CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY SL TOR

44 Vision 2057 brings together all of the Town s master plans and other key planning initiatives. It includes four key Strategic Directions: Create it! How we will create our community Live it! How we will live in our community Preserve it! How we will preserve our environment Afford it! How we will afford our future Livable Oakville Official Plan sets out Council s policies on how Town lands should be used and growth should be managed through to 2031, in order to achieve the Town s vision and mission. Let's Be Livable Community Sustainability Plan encompasses the four pillars of sustainability: economic, cultural, environmental, and social. It is part of the Vision 2057 framework that integrates the Town s master plans and is linked to Council's Strategic Plan. Cultural Plan builds on the significant progress of the Town s original cultural plan developed in 2009, Enabling Culture to Thrive in Oakville: Oakville Strategic Directions for Culture. The Plan vision is to be a community where culture inspires, engages and thrives. Environmental Strategic Plan provides opportunities for residents, environmental groups, commercial interests, industry, community associations, educators, and other community stakeholders to identify what they can do to protect and improve their environment, along with the Town of Oakville. Progress on the implementation of the Plan is reported annually to Council. The Plan vision is to prioritize energy management in all Town departments, optimize energy usage in facilities, provide access to energy information to all employees responsible for energy management, and minimize the impact of increases in energy costs. Parks, Recreation, and Library Facilities Master Plan ensures that the provision of community parks and recreational and library facilities continues to meet the needs of Town residents. The Plan s vision is to ensure the wellbeing of the Town s residents, and the cohesive development of communities through parks, recreation and library facilities and amenities, advancing overall quality of life. Switching Gears Transportation Master Plan addresses the short and long term opportunities and challenges of getting around the Town through to Considers all modes of transportation including public transit, walking, cycling, and ride sharing, as well as strategic roadway improvements to ensure the safe, convenient, and efficient movement of people and goods. The Plan s vision is to create a more balanced transportation system that provides a variety of sustainable travel options in Oakville. Active Transportation Master Plan recommends an extensive network of facilities composed of on road and off road paths designed to respond to the needs of a range of active transportation users, age, and skill level. The Plan was introduced in 2009 and is currently being updated to assess current conditions and develop an improved implementation plan to expand the network, and promote cycling and walking in Oakville. Other key strategic planning documents include the Development Charges Background study, Fire Master Plan and Oakville Transit Service Review.

Relationship of Asset Management Principles to Strategic Plan Integrated Asset Management Planning Future service planning will increasingly need to balance the social, environmental, and economic interests of the community with their capacity and preparedness to pay for services, both now and into the future. This SAMP is a key component of that process. Along with the Asset Management Policy, the SAMP is a key component of the planning integration process. Important to the success of the integrated planning process is the development of department level AMPs. These plans include information related to all key physical assets required to support the delivery of agreed LOS, along with the associated funding requirements. These plans will also need to be revised periodically in light of the service decisions resulting from the integrated planning process. As such, future strategic decisions can be made having the full understanding of the assets needed to support the delivery of the service. Figure 3 4 outlines the process designed for Council and Town staff to integrate strategic planning into their daily activities and decision making, as presented in Council s Strategic Plan This process can be adapted to asset management decision making, in order to ensure alignment with corporate strategic objectives.

47 SECTION 3 ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT Figure 3 4. Town of Oakville Strategic Decision Making Process 3.2 Organizational Opportunities and Challenges The Town s suite of strategic planning documents sets out the environmental and business context of the Town and identifies several opportunities and challenges. In developing asset management objectives and decision making criteria, the Town will aim to focus its asset management approach on realizing those objectives and mitigating potential challenges. Key opportunities include: Capitalizing on growth while making sure the Town stays livable, affordable, and desirable Retaining and expanding businesses, maintaining the Town s competitive position in the marketplace Building on local cultural trends and connecting the arts community to economic development, downtown revitalization, cultural tourism, workforce development and retention, creative place making, and multiculturalism 3 6 CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY SL TOR

48 Key challenges include: Developing corporate key performance measures Ensuring that people in every community have what they need to lead healthy lives Supporting and enhancing active transportation Expanding the community engagement program Promoting environmental best practices in Town capital projects and private development Managing the Town s land supply in a way that contributes to customer values Ensuring the Town is resilient to climate change; being able to protect Town assets from extreme rain events, flood events, freeze thaw cycles, change in mean temperatures, etc. The Town will continue to develop its asset management objectives and decision making criteria so they align with the opportunities and challenges facing the Town. 3.3 Needs and Expectations of Stakeholders A number of stakeholders, both internal and external, will be affected by, and have an interest in, the operational and service changes that can occur from implementation of the SAMP. Their needs (and the risks that will arise, if their needs are not met) must be understood and addressed in order for the SAMP to be successfully implemented. The Town has identified a high level list of internal and external stakeholders (see below), which will be further developed as the Town progresses its Asset Management Program. Internal Stakeholders: Town Council Senior Management Team Finance Department Planning Department Engineering Department External Stakeholders: Residents General public Private groups and sports associations Industrial, commercial, and institutional users Developers Provincial Government Federal Government For all identified internal and external stakeholders, the Town is committed to clear, consistent, and timely communications, and to incorporating their priorities in the development and implementation of the SAMP and related plans.

49 SECTION 3 ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT 3.4 Asset Management Maturity CH2M conducted CAMRA assessments with the Town the results of which are provided in Section 5. These CAMRA assessments informed the determination of the Town s current asset management maturity, as shown in Figure 3 5. The Town is currently at Level 2, with some aspects leaning towards Level 3. Figure 3 5. Town of Oakville Asset Management Maturity By implementing the initiatives in the asset management roadmap provided in Appendix A, the Town will move towards a maturity level of 3 4 over the next 5 years. 3.5 People Skills and Competencies The Town s AMS requires a systematic approach to defining, developing, and assuring the competence of its people and teams. Proactive management of competencies enables managers and staff to deliver the line of sight needed between community outcomes, organizational strategies, plans and work activities. The Town already has in place an Asset Management Training Program that has enabled staff to acquire a consistent level of understanding of asset management approaches and practices, which has benefited a wide range of staff. The Town s Asset Management Office maintains a list of all Town staff that have attended CH2M s 2 Day Asset Management Training Course. The Town s Asset Management Office and Human Resources Department have reviewed a complete list of Town staff and identified those individuals requiring no asset management training, 1 day training, 2 day training without an exam, and 2 day training with an exam. The next step is the creation of an Asset Management Competency Framework that will enable competency requirements to be identified and planned for individuals. Development of an Asset Management Competency Framework is part of a continual improvement cycle to achieve the right asset management skills and experience in the Town departments. It will enable the departments to identify generic asset management development needs and to report these needs to the corporate asset management team in a structured way, such that the information can be aggregated across all departments. From this understanding of development needs, the corporate asset management team will be able to develop/acquire/update asset management training packages that are made available across the Town. Use of this approach can then be applied at three levels: Individual: as part of annual review and career development planning with individuals Team (within departments): as part of the identification of recruitment requirements to fill major gaps in team capability Organization (corporate): to help to clarify and rationalize roles and responsibilities across teams 3 8 CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY SL TOR

50 The Town will improve the competencies of its asset management staff by: Developing an Asset Management Competency Framework. Assessing the required competencies and levels of competencies for all asset management roles. Mapping staff to asset management roles and determining individual competency requirements. Developing training programs aimed at providing staff with the required competencies. SL TOR CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY 3 9

51 Asset Management Objectives and Decision Making Criteria The following subsections describe the Town s asset management objectives and decision making criteria. 4.1 Asset Management Objectives The Town s Asset Management Program focuses on three fundamental goals: Providing sustainable, high quality service to customers Optimizing asset value while minimizing life cycle costs and ensuring that assets are financially sustainable over the life of the assets Managing risks to the delivery of established service levels The Asset Management Program will ensure the sound stewardship of the Town s assets in order to meet present and future customer service commitments in the most effective and efficient manner. A key role of the SAMP is the translation of organizational objectives into measurable asset management objectives and these asset management objectives are then delivered through the AMPs. The Town s asset management objectives are in the form of LOS measures, which cascade vertically from Corporate LOS measures to Technical LOS measures. Figure 4 1 shows how LOS measures can be aligned from the corporate performance vision, down to day to day asset management decision making (at the Technical LOS level), ultimately enabling customers to assess the suitability, affordability, and equity of services offered. Figure 4 1. Alignment of Levels of Service to Corporate Strategy With regard to the development of the Customer and Technical LOS measures, the Town has been making good progress and further work is planned, as per the Priority Initiatives outlined in Section 5. The LOS Framework for each asset class will be included in the AMP. SL TOR CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY 4 1

52 SECTION 4 ASSET MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND DECISION MAKING CRITERIA The AMP includes a qualitative overview of the LOS delivered for each network of assets, as assessed against a set of core values including: Accessibility Quality Availability Reliability Safety Shine (aesthetics) 4.2 Asset Management Decision Making Criteria The Town s asset management decision making criteria, along with their relative weightings, are provided in Table 4 1.

53 Strategic Asset Management Initiatives Achieving the goals of the Asset Management Policy will require improved asset management practices, competencies, and capabilities both within the individual departments and across the Town as a whole. Achieving consistency in the application of asset management practices across the organization requires a well defined approach. This approach must be structured and clearly communicated so that everyone is aware of their roles and all are working toward a common purpose the delivery of services and achieving the Town s objectives. Accomplishment of this goal will require the following activities: Adhering to good asset management practices. Continually improving asset management tools and procedures and fostering the sharing of information across Town departments so that everyone can use the best information available as part of their decision making. Developing business processes and procedures for key business activities. To advance the state of asset management practice, an asset management assessment (using the CAMRA tool) was carried out as part of development of this SAMP. 5.1 CAMRA Results To date, the Town has conducted CAMRA workshops for the Road, Land Improvement, and Environmental Networks, and assets managed by Facilities, Transit and Fleet. This section reports on these asset groups for which CAMRA workshops have been completed. Table 5 1 shows a summary of CAMRA workshops that have been conducted with the Town. Table 5 1.

60 SECTION 5 STRATEGIC ASSET MANAGEMENT INITIATIVES Asset Management Policy & Strategic Asset Management Plan (S1) The Town s Asset Management Policy (A BMG 004) was approved by Council in September This document serves as the Town s preliminary SAMP Asset Management Leadership & Governance (S2) The aim of this initiative is to develop an asset management governance structure and process that will clearly outlined roles and responsibilities for individuals and teams, as well as reporting requirements. This initiative aligns with the following principles in the Asset Management Policy: Robust, Repeatable and Transparent Decision Making and People Focused (Customers and Staff). This initiative has been set up through recent asset management improvement initiatives, and will continue through regular, quarterly meetings of the asset management working group Change Management & Communication Strategies (S3) The aim of this initiative is to develop strategies for a proactive approach to change management and communications to make change sustainable. This initiative aligns with the following principle in the Asset Management Policy: Forward Looking and Sustainable. This initiative has been initiated through recent asset management improvement initiatives, and will be continued through regular, quarterly meetings of the asset management working group Levels of Service & Performance Metrics (S4) The aim of this initiative is to develop customer and technical LOS frameworks and associated measures. This initiative aligns with the following principle in the Asset Management Policy: People Focused (Customers and Staff). At the writing of this SAMP, the initial version of LOS and performance metrics has been drafted. The next phase is to set targets and objectives, and link the LOS and performance metrics to a separate corporate initiative, which will drive efficiencies from the LOS. This initiative is planned to be completed by Q1 of 2019, in parallel with the second phase of development of the AMP and alongside the separate corporate initiative to drive efficiencies from the LOS Asset Management Plan (S5) The first version of the Town s AMP is underway. This initiative aligns with the following principles in the Asset Management Policy: Sound Asset Information, Whole Life Cycle Cost Perspective, and Risk Based Perspective Asset Information Strategy, Standards, Improvement Plan (S6) The aim of this initiative is to develop and document strategies to ensure that data quality is sufficient to support asset management activities, to improve data and information management processes, and to identify and document appropriate data entry standards. This initiative aligns with the following principles in the Asset Management Policy: Sound Asset Information and Robust, Repeatable and Transparent Decision Making. 5 4 CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY SL TOR

61 The key tasks for the delivery of this initiative are to: Identify the core asset management processes currently in place such as LOS, AMPs, Business Cases and their primary data and information needs for the asset portfolio. Conduct a gap analysis and determine the major data quality issues affecting the decision making processes, for example, lack of O&M data for life cycle expenditure calculations. Create asset data and information strategies that set out a multi year improvement program. With improved data and information management, future asset management decision making will be able to evolve into information driven methodologies. Estimated external consultant resources: $50, Asset Management Risk Framework (S7) The aim of this initiative is to develop a Town wide approach to risk and, in so doing, develop both corporate and asset risk frameworks. This initiative aligns with the following principle in the Asset Management Policy: Risk Based Perspective. The key tasks for the delivery of this initiative are: Create a simple, concise risk management standard for the Town that sets out basic risk approaches and terminology to be applied to all assets within the portfolio. Develop risk framework, and risk criteria (likelihood and consequence matrices) for each asset network that are aligned to customer LOS. Conduct pilot risk assessments on a range of asset related issues to test and validate the risk management processes and equip staff to conduct risk assessments in a consistent manner. Define an implementation plan for each asset network. An organization wide risk management process will enable the evolution to risk based decision making. Estimated external consultant resources: $100, Capital Investment Plan Development & Governance (S8) The aim of this initiative is to test and validate the Town s business cases and ensure a consistent, robust, and transparent approach to prioritizing investments, to meet the Town s LOS requirements. This initiative aligns with the following principles in the Asset Management Policy: Forward Looking and Sustainable, Robust, Repeatable and Transparent Decision Making, Whole Life Cycle Cost Perspective, and Risk Based Perspective. The key tasks for the delivery of this initiative are: Test the business case methodology to ensure risk based, information driven decision making. Conduct pilot business case challenge sessions on a range of projects across the asset networks. Test and refine the investment prioritization criteria for each of the asset networks. Test and refine the investment prioritization methodology to apply across all asset networks. Implementing a robust and transparent business case methodology will provide senior management with confidence that people are consistent in their decision making, and that it is information driven and based on risk.

62 SECTION 5 STRATEGIC ASSET MANAGEMENT INITIATIVES Asset Management Awareness Training (S9) Asset management training has been integral to developing competence within a core group of asset management practitioners. Future training will raise awareness of asset management for staff across multiple departments, including how their work contributes to successfully meeting LOS and achieving the Town s asset management objectives. The following asset management awareness training will be provided to Town staff in various departments, with the intent to raise awareness of good practice asset management: Module 1 Introduction to Asset Management Module 2 Asset Related Risk Module 3 Asset Management Life Cycle Module 4 Asset Information Module 5 Financial and Business Impacts (including AMPs) Training forms a part of the overall learning model, where on the job experiences, mentoring and formal learning are required for staff development. The model is representative of the following: Development from on the job experiences that include challenging assignments and other opportunities to build skills through applying them at work. Development from learning from others, including mentoring relationships and experiences, as well as coaching and management feedback. Development from formal learning, including online and classroom courses, reading professional books/articles, and attending webinars. Asset management awareness training will contribute to the formal learning requirements of staff. Estimated external consultant resources: $75, CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY SL TOR

63 Risks and Opportunities The Town has identified risks and opportunities associated with implementing this SAMP and the strategic asset management initiatives described herein. The following subsections summarize the identified risks and opportunities. 6.1 Risks The main risks that the Town will manage during implementation of this SAMP and the strategic asset management initiatives are as follows: The ongoing financial sustainability of the strategic initiatives will be managed within the program s set limits, to 2023 and beyond. Training, education, and knowledge development will be provided to ensure staff competencies are maintained during the process of change that is required during implementation. Communications will be planned to ensure that they permeate through to staff at the Town who are affected by the changes required during implementation. Staff will be engaged to ensure they understand their contribution to asset management, and how their activities for the Town can positively influence the intent of this SAMP. Town leaders and management will be consulted and informed, to ensure that acceptance for strategic asset management initiatives is understood. The strategic initiatives will achieve the Town s objectives, notably affordability, sustainability, resiliency, and maximizing value from assets. The improved processes and procedures implemented for the strategic initiatives will be adaptable to possible changes to legislation and regulations. 6.2 Opportunities The main opportunities that the Town will leverage during implementation of this SAMP and the strategic asset management initiatives are as follows: The approved program, until 2023, will allow federal funding sources to be applied for and obtained, to benefit citizens. Forward planning of the strategic asset management initiatives will allow for coordination with other Town programs. Town leaders, management, and staff will be viewed as leaders in good asset management practice amongst other Ontario municipalities. Implementation of the strategic asset management initiatives will improve procedural efficiencies through implementation of good asset management practice. Staff morale will be increased through an understanding that the asset management system will be improved during the program s implementation. Changes to the way in which asset management is conducted at the Town will enact an organizational culture change. The SAMP and these strategic initiatives will be used to implement global asset management good practice, and progress towards compliance with international standards (e.g., ISO 55001).

64 Continual Improvement and Monitoring This SAMP, along with the asset management roadmap (Appendix A), are living documents that will continue to reflect the evolution of asset management practices within the Town. The Town has embedded continual improvement into its Mission Statement and its Strategic Plan. From the Town s Mission Statement: We create and preserve Canada s most livable community that enhances the natural, cultural, social and economic environments. We achieve this by continuously improving programs and services that are both accessible and environmentally and fiscally sustainable. From the Town s Strategic Plan ( ): The Town s strategic plan is a continual work in progress. Over time, new priorities, new opportunities, new demands and new challenges will emerge, and incorporating annual business plans into the Town s strategic planning process ensures us the flexibility to respond quickly and effectively to these changing directions. In order to continually evaluate, review, and enhance its asset management practices, the Town is adopting a number of continual improvement activities and will promote a culture of continual improvement through disciplined performance management, performance benchmarking, and collection of customer feedback. The asset management improvement roadmap (Appendix A), and improvement initiatives described in Section 5.2, are aligned with the Town s Strategic Plan and succeed in meeting the Town s mission, through continual improvement of the asset management system. Throughout implementation of the asset management improvement roadmap, annual reviews of the performance of the program will be conducted. The review will consist of internal evaluation, together with the results of benchmarking, audit results, and assessments of current and best practices.

72 SECTION 1 Introduction The Town of Oakville owns a sizable portfolio of assets, which vary significantly in terms of their function, age, durability, and many other factors. The purpose of the State of Infrastructure Report (SOIR) is to provide a summary of the key physical attributes and current physical state of the asset portfolio. The SOIR only provides information about the physical asset and not whether it is meeting service provision. This section of the plan identifies asset types, accounting valuation and replacement cost valuation, asset age distribution and asset age as a proportion of expected useful life and asset condition. This information is supported by the town s Corporate Information System (CIS) which forms the database for all town assets. This system holds asset records for individual assets and groups of assets and contains details such as asset type, class, description, location, useful life, historical cost, replacement cost, depreciation and condition. This SOIR also provides background on the Town s Quality Rating System (QRS) for parks and park assets. CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY 1 1

73 SECTION 2 Data Sources and Data Confidence Table 2 1 summarizes the data sources/it systems that were used for the basis of this SOIR. Table 2 1. Data Sources Information System Types of Asset Data Limitations of Data Use of Data in SOIR Capital Asset Management System (CIS, ERP System) Tag Number Type/Size Age Expected Service Life Replacement Value Work Order History Replacement Year Planned Budget Year Condition Preventative Maintenance Schedule Maintainability Index All operational maintenance tasks are captured in CIS, with the following exceptions: capital maintenance is not entirely captured ( Future discussion are required to capture capital maintenance and rehabilitation/replacement to fully understand whole life cost cycles as detailed in the Infrastructure and Job Prosperity Act) ;; and failure mode is not consistently and accurately utilized and captured. Pooled assets need to be componentized into individual assets in CIS. Componentizing pooled assets is currently underway and is expected to be completed by This is expected to be completed by Work order history and cost need to support the asset life cycle cost strategy. Collection of consistent work order data is necessary, including: CAM data was used and only limited work order data was utilized in this SOIR. On selected assets, tracking all hours and material costs associated with work order; Indicating cause of failure on corrective work orders; and Documenting resolution/intervention applied. Condition Assessment (CIS, CAM) Age Expected Service Life Condition Risk Remediation Cost Certain Assets ( Bridge and Major Culverts, Storm Water Mains, Roadway Pavement ) have asset specific software that details the asset conditions. Selected information is brought into CIS to have all decision making attributes in one corporate accessible system. Limited data on storm assets (e.g., pipes and valve chambers). A condition review was completed using CCTV and Zoom camera on aged storm water assets to better understand the conditions these older assets are. Captures a full inventory of assets, their condition and expected service life; however, some asset subclasses do not have a physical condition assessment completed (e.g., acoustic walls). Condition data was used, where available. CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY 2 1

74 SECTION 2 DATA SOURCES AND DATA CONFIDENCE Table 2 1. Data Sources Information System Types of Asset Data Limitations of Data Use of Data in SOIR Financial System (CIS) Geographic Information System (GIS) Depreciated Value for Tangible Capital Assets (TCA) All Spatial related assets are in GIS. Depreciated value of assets is not directly used for infrastructure renewal planning since many long lived assets will have been fully depreciated, yet remain in use across the system. Rather, replacement value is used. A fully integrated system from GIS/CIS (CAM) is available, however, pooled assets do not have the integration (e.g., storm mains). Pooled assets will be unpooled in replacement costs were used. The Town has a single asset registry (i.e., CIS) that is integrated with GIS data. The quality of data used in this SOIR varies depending on the source(s) for the data. To aid in the interpretation of this SOIR, a data confidence rating (in terms of reliability and accuracy of the data used) is used throughout. The data confidence rating scales, defined in Table 2 2, are used to support the rating, with confidence based on the lower of the reliability and accuracy ratings. Table 2 2. Data Confidence Scale Rating Measure Description High Moderate Low Reliability Can be trusted to be accurate or to provide a correct result Based upon sound records, procedures, or analyses that have been acceptably documented and are recognized as the best method of assessment Based upon known reasonable procedures or analyses that have been acceptably documented Based upon expert verbal opinion or cursory inspections/ observations Accuracy Probable difference between a recorded parameter and its true value +/ 1% +/ 10% +/ 50% Figure 2 1 shows an example of a data confidence bar used in this SOIR, where accuracy is denoted on the top of the bar and reliability is denoted on the bottom.

75 SECTION 3 State of Infrastructure The Town of Oakville owns a sizable portfolio of assets, which vary significantly in terms of their function, age, durability, and many other factors. This report provides a summary of the key physical attributes and current physical state of three classes of the Town s assets: a) the Road Network, b) the Land Improvement Network, and c) the Environmental Network. 3.1 Asset Inventory Table includes a summary breakdown of the asset types in the three asset networks covered by this SOIR. Table Asset Classification in the Three Networks Network Asset Types Data Confidence Road Network Land Improvement Network Environmental Network Roads (incl. various sub types), bridges, sidewalks, major culverts, traffic signaling, street lights, transit shelters, acoustic walls, multiuse trails/walkways, guiderails, retaining walls Parks, sports fields and courts, trails, walkways, parking lots, minor buildings, minor structures, lighting, stairs, irrigation, retaining walls, bus terminal Erosion control structures, catchbasins, foundation drain collectors, house connections, outlet structures, laterals, maintenance holes, minor culverts, pond retaining walls, storm mains, water quality control devices, pond in/outfalls, underground storage High High High The overall data confidence for the asset inventory used in the SOIR is considered to be high since the asset inventory has been fully articulated for TCA reporting purposes and has been audited. The Land Improvement Network has the most granular inventory of assets due to a variety of different types of sports fields (e.g., soccer, cricket, tennis, etc.). Where appropriate, the different asset sub categories are rolled up into broader groups Road Network The Town has arranged the asset inventory in the Road Network into 15 asset types. These are summarized in Table The Town has additional asset identification numbering system that corresponds with each segment of road or count of each asset in the Road Network. The method of quantity takeoff for the Road Network data is the Town s CIS.

81 SECTION 3 STATE OF INFRASTRUCTURE Photo 3 5. Bronte Outer Harbour 3.2 Asset Valuation Under the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) Standard PS 3150, local governments are required to summarize and present information regarding their tangible capital assets (TCA) and amortization in financial statements based on historical costs. While the depreciated value does provide an indicator of the extent to which an asset life has been consumed, it is typically not used for asset management planning purposes as it is not representative for all asset types, specifically long lived assets, which will have fully depreciated yet remain in use across the system. All replacement values are based on the cost to replace the asset with an asset of the same functionality and capacity. Therefore, no growth, technology change, or enhancement assumptions are included in the costs. Replacement values are based on the cost of the material and the cost to install. Replacement values include mark ups such as engineering, contingency, etc. Actual project costs to replace these assets may vary from the replacement values used, based on technology changes, but also variables such as land acquisition, legal fees, etc. The total replacement value of all assets covered within this SOIR is estimated at $3,002,743,780 (2016), with the distribution across the three asset classes summarized in Table CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY 3 7

89 3.3 Asset Age and Useful Life SECTION 3 STATE OF INFRASTRUCTURE For many assets, the estimated remaining useful life, based on the age of the asset, is considered a good starting point to estimate the overall well being of an asset pool. However, in many cases, the percentage of useful life consumed, based purely on age, may not be the most suitable indicator of current asset condition. Infrastructure assets, in particular, undergo a continual process of repair and rehabilitation in order to maintain their intended purpose. For example, pumps may undergo a rehabilitation or major overhaul every 20 years with the replacement of specific parts and hence the overall age of the pump may not be the most suitable indicator to use for asset management planning purposes. Accordingly, in many cases, asset useful life needs to be augmented with other information such as actual asset condition rating, history of asset upgrades, and expert judgment. Estimated useful lives based purely on age can sometimes provide a misleading view of the replacement timing for assets. In many cases, assets that are properly constructed and maintained may outlive their estimated useful life and continue providing valued service. In other cases, due to incorrectly specified equipment, poor workmanship and/or lack of proactive maintenance, assets may fail before they fulfill their estimated useful life. Typically, a hybrid approach is used that relies on asset age, assumed useful life, actual asset condition rating, where available, and expert judgment in order to evaluate the condition state of the various asset types. For this SOIR, these assumed useful life estimates have been used as a starting point and validated based on the history of asset upgrades and expert judgment. The determination of life of an asset for TCA purposes is typically a combination of useful life and design life. This SOIR includes a variety of assets of different functions, design, and durability. Table provides a summary of the average useful lives and average age of the assets in the three networks. Table Useful Life and Age of Assets in the Three Networks Network Average Useful Life (Years) Average Asset Age (Years) Average % of Life Lived Data Confidence Road Network % Moderate Land Improvement Network % Moderate Environmental Network % Moderate It is observed that the Environmental Network generally has the most durable assets (average useful life of 70 years), whereas the Land Improvement Network has the least durable assets (average useful life of 22 years). The Road Network has the highest average asset age (24 years), whereas the Land Improvement Network has the youngest average asset age (14 years) Road Network Asset useful lives (or economic lives) for the Road Network were developed as part of the PSAB 3150 TCA project and are used in this version of the SOIR.

The correlation of the useful life data to the asset condition data is provided in Section Asset Condition A 5 point rating scale that aligns with the CIRC, produced by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM), Canadian Construction Association, Canadian Public Works Association and Canadian Society for Civil Engineering was used to determine the state of the Town s assets. The use of this 5 point rating scale allows the Town s asset base to be described using a common approach and will enable benchmarking against other municipalities. The rating scale ranges from Very Good to Very Poor, as described in Table and reflects the physical condition of the given assets. It should be noted that the condition grades reported in this SOIR do not consider asset performance. That is, the condition grade represents the physical condition of the asset without taking into account whether the asset is meeting the desired LOS in terms of capacity and/or function. Table CIRC 5 Point Scale for Rating Asset Condition 1 Very Good The infrastructure in the system or network is generally in very good condition, typically new or recently rehabilitated. A few elements show general signs of deterioration that require attention. 2 Good 3 Fair 4 Poor 5 Very Poor The infrastructure in the system or network is in good condition; some elements show general signs of deterioration that require attention. A few elements exhibit significant deficiencies. The infrastructure in the system or network is in fair condition; it shows general signs of deterioration and requires attention. Some elements exhibit significant deficiencies. The infrastructure in the system or network is in poor condition and mostly below standard, with many elements approaching the end of their service life. A large portion of the system exhibits significant deterioration. The infrastructure in the system or network is in unacceptable condition with widespread signs of advanced deterioration. Many components in the system exhibit signs of imminent failure, which is affecting service. For vertical assets and observable linear assets (e.g., roads), the physical condition grades are objective and are based on visual observations and engineering standards. Roads are inspected every 3 to 4 years using a specialized vehicle that captures many quality conditions criteria of the roadway and roadside. This information is utilized to determine pavement quality index, as well as for developing a degradation curve until the next driven inspection. Bridges are inspected every 2 years by a third party engineering firm, providing a bridge condition index CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY

99 SECTION 3 STATE OF INFRASTRUCTURE For buried linear assets (e.g., pipes), the physical condition grades are based on typical deterioration curves for pipes, and have been supplemented with information from engineering condition assessments. Where no physical condition data is available, an age based rating has been applied based on remaining useful life as described in Section 3.3. It is recommended that the Town develop a regular condition inspection program for those assets whose condition grades are currently derived from age based calculations. Overall, the condition of the three asset networks covered in this SOIR is Very Good to Good, with an average overall condition grade score of 1.97, as shown in Figure Figure Average Overall Condition of the Three Asset Networks on the NIRC Scale Figure illustrates the average condition scores for each of the three asset networks covered in this SOIR.

119 Parks Quality Rating System 4.1 Methodology The Town s park QRS rating methodology includes the following key steps: 1. Establish a park classification scheme 2. Determine an appropriate data collection procedure for each park SECTION 4 PARKS QUALITY RATING SYSTEM 3. Apply the standardized condition rating scales and quality scores developed by CH2M 4. Apply the evaluation categories and criteria 5. Apply the evaluation weightings 6. Conduct assessments using the GIS method and/or rated methods 7. Compile the data into an Excel workbook 8. Generate graphs to benchmark each park against the targets Classification Scheme The Town has a park asset classification system that includes 6 park types, as well as 2 categories for undeveloped land. The Town s 6 park types include: Community Parks; Neighbourhood Parks; Major Valley Parks; Minor Valley Parks; Tableland Woodlot Parks; and Community Link Parks. The Community and Neighbourhood parks have been further classified as either Active or Passive, depending on whether the park includes recreational amenities such as sports fields and courts. Undeveloped land is categorized as either Buffer Block or Undeveloped Parkland in the Town s asset database. Table 4 1 lists the different types/models of parks that are used as the classification scheme for the QRS, accompanied by a few examples of representative parks from the Town s inventory. Table 4 1.

160 Introduction The Town of Oakville (the Town) owns a sizable portfolio of assets, which vary significantly in terms of their function, age, durability, and many other factors. The purpose of this State of Infrastructure Report (SOIR) is to provide a summary of the key physical attributes and current physical state of the asset portfolio relating to three of the following three asset classes Facilities, Equipment and Fleet (with a breakdown on Transit). Please keep in mind that this only provides information about the physical asset and not whether it is meeting service provision. The following sections present the Town s available data on the assets within the Facilities, Equipment and Fleet (with a breakdown on Transit) including data of asset inventory, asset valuation, asset age and useful life, and asset condition. The data presented represents a snapshot in time and is current to SL TOR CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY 1 1

161 Data Sources and Data Confidence Table 2 1 summarizes the data sources/it systems that were used for the basis of this SOIR. Table 2 1. Data Sources Information System Types of Asset Data Limitations of Data Use of Data in SOIR Capital Asset Management System (CIS, ERP System) Tag Number Type/Size Age Expected Service Life Replacement Value Work Order History All operational maintenance tasks are captured in the CIS, with the following exceptions: capital maintenance is not entirely captured; and failure mode is not consistently and accurately utilized and captured. Pooled assets need to be componentized into individual assets in both GIS and CAM systems. The Asset Management Office is currently in the process of componentizing pooled assets. The Towns s current Work Order practice varies by asset groups. Fleet including Transit have Work order history and cost is available to support the asset whole life cycle. This includes CAM data was used and selected work order data was utilized in this SOIR. On selected assets, tracking all hours and material costs associated with work order; Indicating cause of failure on corrective work orders; and Documenting resolution/intervention applied. Condition Assessment (CIS, CAM) Age Expected Service Life Condition Risk Remediation Cost Captures a full inventory of assets, their condition and expected service life; some asset subclasses do not have a physical condition assessment completed so in this case the condition was calculated using remaining useful life. The goal is to have physical conditions completed on all assets that are within the 5 to 7 year forecast. Condition data was used, where available. Financial System (CIS) Depreciated Value for Tangible Capital Assets (TCA) Depreciated value of assets is not directly used for infrastructure renewal planning since many long lived assets will have been fully depreciated, yet remain in use across the system. Rather, market replacement value is used market replacement costs were used. The quality of data used in this SOIR varies depending on the source(s) for the data. To aid in the interpretation of this SOIR, a data confidence rating in terms of reliability and accuracy of the data is used throughout. The data confidence rating scales, defined in Table 2 2, are used to support the rating, with confidence based on the lower of the reliability and accuracy ratings.

167 3.2 Asset Valuation Under the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) Standard PS 3150, local governments are required to summarize and present information regarding their tangible capital assets (TCA) and amortization in financial statements based on historical costs. While the depreciated value does provide an indicator of the extent to which an asset life has been consumed, it is typically not used for asset management planning purposes as it is not representative for all asset types, particularly long lived assets. All replacement values are based on the cost to replace the asset with an asset of the same functionality and capacity. Therefore, no growth, technology change, or enhancement assumptions are included in the costs. Market values are based on the cost of the material and the cost to design, build and install. Replacement values include mark ups such as engineering design and contingency. Actual costs to replace assets may vary from the replacement values used, based on variables such as land acquisition, legal fees and technology changes. The total replacement value of all assets covered within this SOIR is estimated at $710,681,694 (2016). The Facilities and related equipment has the largest replacement value ($530 million) and represents nearly 75% of the asset value in this SOIR. The replacement value for transit and fleet assets are 18% and 7% respectively Facilities and related Equipment The estimated replacement value of the Facilities and related equipment assets owned by the Town is $530,001,491 (2016).

However, in many cases, the percentage of useful life consumed, based purely on age, may not be the most suitable indicator of current asset condition. Physical assets undergo a continual process of repair and rehabilitation to achieve their intended level of service (LOS). For example, pumps may undergo a rehabilitation or major overhaul every 20 years with the replacement of specific parts and hence the pump installation date will not be a suitable indicator to use for asset management planning purposes. Accordingly, in many cases, the remaining useful life should be assessed through other information such as physical condition, asset failures, and/or history of refurbishment. Estimating remaining life through the assets design life and asset age may provide a misleading view of the replacement timing for assets. In many cases, assets that are properly constructed and maintained may outlast their estimated design life and continue providing valuable services. In other cases, due to poor workmanship or lack of proactive maintenance, assets may fail before they fulfill their design life. For this report a hybrid approach is used that relies on asset age, asset design life, and asset condition rating (where available) to evaluate the condition of the asset types, and therefore their remaining life. For this SOIR, the design life vs. age estimates have been used as a starting point, superseded if there is a condition assessment, and validated based on the history of asset refurbishment. The determination of life of an asset for TCA purposes is the useful life based on the design life. This SOIR includes a variety of assets of different functions, design and durability. It provides a summary of the average useful life (based on design life) and the average age of the asset portfolio. It is observed that the Facilities assets are generally the longest lived assets with an average life span of 17.4 years, whereas the Transit and Fleet assets are under 15 years.

The use of this rating scale allows the Town s asset portfolio to be described using a common approach and enables benchmarking with other municipalities. The rating scale ranges from Very Good to Very Poor, as described in Table and reflects the physical condition of the asset. Table CIRC 5 Point Scale for Rating Asset Condition Number Rating Rating Description 1 Very Good 2 Good 3 Fair 4 Poor 5 Very Poor The infrastructure in the system or network is generally in very good condition, typically new or recently rehabilitated. A few elements show general signs of deterioration that require attention. The infrastructure in the system or network is in good condition; some elements show general signs of deterioration that require attention. A few elements exhibit significant deficiencies. The infrastructure in the system or network is in fair condition; it shows general signs of deterioration and requires attention. Some elements exhibit significant deficiencies. The infrastructure in the system or network is in poor condition and mostly below standard, with many elements approaching the end of their service life. A large portion of the system exhibits significant deterioration. The infrastructure in the system or network is in unacceptable condition with widespread signs of advanced deterioration. Many components in the system exhibit signs of imminent failure, which is affecting service. SL TOR CH2M HILL CANADA LIMITED COMPANY PROPRIETARY 3 25

188 Note within Table that the condition grades do not consider asset performance. The condition grade represents the physical condition of the asset without considering whether the asset is meeting the required levels of service, capacity and/or function. The inspection regime of the asset types throughout the different service areas vary for each. Facilities assets are not assessed for their condition on a regular basis, either visually, or through non destructive testing (NDT). The approach taken is to access the condition of the asset through visual inspection when the asset is on the 10 year forecast. Therefore many assets do not have condition ratings for them. Because of this the condition of the asset has been assessed based on the remaining useful life (and based on design life). Facilities assets are also inspected on an ad hoc basis following the reporting through work orders of major service interruption events: multiple failure prompting investigation or leading to the asset s budget replacement year (that is identified on an age basis). In either case an inspection is completed to determine the assets condition, to re evaluate the year for asset replacement. The condition of fleet and transit assets are assessed during annual safety inspections. Mechanics inspect the assets and provide a condition rating consistent with the CIRC 5 point scale in Table Where no physical condition data is available, an age based rating has been applied based on remaining useful life as described in Section 3.3.

Figure Value of Assets in Poor and Very Poor Condition in Facilities Table provides a summary of the data confidence for the condition of the Facilities assets.

Because condition scores for most of the assets in the Facilities were inferred from asset age, and this is not an appropriate representation for these asset types, it has been noted that an improvement in the data collection for asset management analysis is required. A condition based rating should be applied for these asset types and there will be a recommendation in the AMP. This data has been summarised in the SOIR in this way because it is the current data within the asset register, however it is recommended to conduct asset condition assessments prior to documentation of the AMP, and share the updated grades within the publicly available AMP.

Furthermore, when drawing a conclusion of asset condition based on visual assessment, the degree to which they are objectively or subjectively rated also leads to misinterpretation of the replacement time. Future iterations of the SOIR will continue to incorporate the most up to date objective information available Benchmarking Oakville to CIRC This section endeavours to make preliminary benchmarking comparisons of the physical condition of the Town s assets relative to the asset classes included in the CIRC. The purpose of this is to put the Town s infrastructure deficit into a national context and to determine whether any of the Town s asset classes are outliers that may warrant special consideration. Please note that the Town is using the CIRC rating scale in in Table to allow the Town s asset portfolio to be described using this common approach. The specific rating scales for each asset type, described within the CIRC, are not being used. Facilities Figure provides a comparison of the average physical condition of the Town s facilities assets against the average physical condition in the Recreation and Libraries category of the 2016 CIRC. Figure Benchmarking Oakville against the CIRC 2016 Results for Recreation, Culture, and Library Assets From this comparison, the Town s Recreation Culture and Libraries assets are in similar condition to the average of the municipalities that were included in the 2016 CIRC.
