As part of the Canada-Saskatchewan Administrative Agreement and the Municipal Gas Tax Fund Agreement, municipalities are required to:
The oversight committee for the Canada Community-Building Fund (CCBF), formerly called the federal Gas Tax Fund, established an Asset Management Subcommittee, which includes members from:
The subcommittee established a baseline against which to measure progress, as well as developed a tiered approach for asset management planning measures and targets.
Saskatchewan municipalities participating in the Canada Community-Building Fund contributed to the baseline by completing a 2016 survey on Asset Management.
Information provided in the survey and collected during Asset Management Subcommittee workshops and meetings, was used to develop recommendations for tiers, measures and targets. The oversight committee co-chairs approved the recommendations.
To ensure that the conditions of the Administrative Agreement are met, municipalities are required to show they are making progress in implementing asset management.
Recognizing that Saskatchewan has a vast range of municipal sizes and capacity, and that municipalities may be at different stages in development and implementation of their asset management plans, a tiered structure to meet the requirements was developed. The Asset Management Subcommittee determined the tiers would be based on population of the municipality:
The tier level establishes the targeted number of asset classes a municipality will need to complete initially.
The following chart summarizes the measures and targets municipalities are required to work towards in the development of their asset management plans.

Some municipalities may have more asset classes than identified in the chart. It is anticipated that as a municipality completes their initial asset class, they will gain momentum and proceed to complete all asset classes.
The Guide to CCBF Agreement Requirements expands on the approved recommendations for tiers, measures and targets and provides general guidance to assist municipalities as they work towards achieving the measures and targets.
Municipalities are required to report to the ministry on the progress they have made in implementing their asset management plans. This will assist the province in reporting to Canada.
Further reporting requirements will be determined with guidance from the Asset Management Subcommittee.
It is a requirement for municipalities to complete and submit the required reporting to be compliant with the terms and conditions of their CCBF agreement.
