As earlier stated in this report municipalities develop long range capital plans spanning 5 to 10 years to ensure that the most critical capital priorities are being addressed and that capital and operating funding sources are in place as needed. The Development Charges By-Law must also be addressed and reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that development can fund a portion of the needed infrastructure to support a growing community. These study reports are available public information and may be influenced by an indication that an upcoming pool renovation or new facility development is on the horizon. A well articulated aquatic strategy may well influence the development of these plans.
