The Regional District of Nanaimo, on Wednesday, May 14, is recognizing Asset Management Awareness Day during Local Government Awareness Week, which runs May 11 to May 17.
The event helps highlight the importance of asset management best practices and sustainable service delivery by local governments. Through these best practices, the RDN strives to ensure that meeting our community's current service needs does not negatively impact the ability to meet the needs of future generations.
The goal of asset management is to achieve sustainable service delivery. This is done by delivering current and future community services to residents in a socially, economically and environmentally responsible way while not compromising the level of service provided.
Some of the RDN’s larger assets include:
- The Regional Landfill in Cedar
- The Transfer Station on Church Road in Parksville
- The Greater Nanaimo Pollution Control Centre
- More than 2,072 hectares of regional parks and trails
- Ravensong Aquatic Centre in Qualicum Beach
- Oceanside Place Arena in Parksville
