We use asset management to determine how we allocate resources, use infrastructure and inform our decisions on how we use assets over their useful life, including:
- Building
- Operating
- Maintaining
- Renewing
- Replacing
Asset management plans identify municipal infrastructure needs and direct staff in advance of a major asset renewal or replacement. This helps us plan for major projects. A municipality's health can be measured by the quality of its infrastructure. Quality asset management promotes economic development, resident safety and provides a higher quality of life for all.

As part of the Ontario Regulation (O. Reg. 588/17) the Town has prepared a document outlining our proposed levels of service. The Proposed Levels of Service is a minimum set to maintain the current levels of service and performance over the next 10 years. For the Town to continue to provide sustainable and affordable services it must continue to rely on two primary sources of funding: taxation for general services and utility rates for water and wastewater services.

The Town of Saugeen Shores Transportation Master Plan (TMP) is a strategic planning document designed to provide a vision and the policy framework for a multi-modal transportation system that will meet mobility needs in the Town to the year 2031 (and beyond). The TMP establishes the strategies, initiatives, and priorities necessary to realize the municipality’s transportation vision in a sustainable manner.
The existing TMP was prepared in 2020 following the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process for Master Plans. The Town of Saugeen Shores is now completing a Transportation Master Plan Update to reflect growth and change that has occurred in the community since 2020.
