Natural Asset Management Roadmap Development Project

none

Value

Varies.
Yes

Description

First developed and offered by NAI through the Federation of Canadian Municipalities’ Municipal Asset Management Program, the Roadmap Program is designed for local governments that are just beginning to incorporate natural asset management (NAM) in their asset management and financial planning. With NAI’s guidance and expertise, this program is an opportunity for local governments to recognize, account for, and ultimately manage natural assets — such as wetlands, forests, and rivers — as a part of their community’s critical infrastructure.

Eligible Applicants

  • IPE is currently sponsoring their  municipal clients in Ontario and Atlantic Canada. All other Canadian local governments may submit their interest to participate at the subsidized rate of $850.

    Requirements:

    • Minimum of three staff participating per local government
    • Local elected officials are welcome to participate
    • Very small (>1,000) local governments can include two staff and one elected official
    • Participating staff should be cross-functional, ideally including a finance official or senior administrator, public works or engineering staff, and environmental sustainability of planning staff

    Please note: Small local governments (with populations under 1,000 people) that collaborate on asset management with neighbouring local governments may apply together to develop a single roadmap.

Eligible Expenses

Most local governments complete their roadmap within four months, through which time they are able to:

  • Build awareness about NAM among a cross-functional staff group
  • Understand how their local government is considering natural assets in planning and delivering services
  • Complete a high-level roadmap that includes the actions they will take over the short to medium term to integrate NAM into their asset management practices
  • Learn from their peers and build a network helping to advance NAM
