Priority planning and budgeting process for municipalities
The paper provides background information on the National Guide to Sustainable Municipal Infrastructure and on the collaborative effort involved in its development. It contains a summary of the recommended procedures for priority planning and budgeting for pavement preservation that are now a part of the Guide. The Federation of Canadian Municipalities is leading the development of the National Guide in partnership with the National Research Council of Canada. The objective of the National Guide is to provide a single authoritative reference for infrastructure preservation through a compendium of technical best practices. The Guide also aims to assist municipalities and other infrastructure owners with decision-making and investment planning tools. The paper describes how the planning and budgeting process for pavement preservation can be improved by using a transparent process that effectively identifies and documents pavement preservation needs and translates them into prioritized projects and required budgets.
