President’s Remarks

AdvocacyOGRA’s advocacy agenda was busy in 2014 with OGRA commenting on a number of pieces of provincial legislation. By far our biggest endeavor, however, was our third Advocacy Day at Queen’s Park. In November of 2014, the Board of Direc-tors, some Past Presidents and most of OGRA staff descended on Queen’s Park to meet with over 65 MPPs. The following three position papers were presented:1. Standardizing Asset Management Plans and establishing a data model standard;2. Replicating the success of the Municipal Bridge Data Collection Program;3. New Revenue Tools for Municipalities.

These position papers were very similar to what we presented in 2013. We received good support for positions 1 & 2 however the response was more cautious with respect to position 3.

EducationI had the pleasure of attending the Guelph Road School in May last year and was impressed with the scale and quality of our fl ag ship course. OGRA set a new attendance record for Road School in 2014 with 850 students registered. All was not good news however as our MIT program continued to suff er in 2014. However, OGRA retained a consultant to analyze how we will strengthen enrollment at these courses. The report identifi ed changing demographics, competition, lack of brand loyalty, value for money spent, messaging and our GTA centric

delivery model. Funds were set aside in the 2015 budget to conduct a top-to-bottom review of our education off erings.

Member ServicesThe new MDW partnership with Marmak has been successful with OGRA and Marmak initiating a number of pilot implementa-tions in Ontario and Saskatchewan. We have also established partnerships with other like-minded associations and with an Association that represents six First Nations community in the North Bay area. We have registered the Canadian and US Trade Marks and continue to work with Autodesk on the Lighthouse Initiative.

MMS Litigation FundAfter all the legal bills were settled, $228,154.78 remained in the Litigation fund. The Board directed that staff off er to refund a pro-rated share of the fund back to the contributing municipalities. This was in keeping with the original “ask”, however municipalities were also given the option of leaving the funds in the reserved should the need arise in the future. I am pleased to report that only 33% of the contributing municipalities requested a refund which means there is $140,574.54 in the reserve to fund future challenges. I would also like to add that many of the municipalities that requested a refund stated that they would be willing to consider additional contributions in the future should the need arise.

FinancialAs stated above our MIT program under performed for the third straight year and total revenues were approximately $38,300 less than 2013. Despite this, I am pleased to report that OGRA realized a year-end surplus of almost $75,000. Our various reserves are well funded and overall our fi nancial position remains strong.

The Board approved the 2015 budget in November. Total revenues are projected at $4,375,250 with expenditures estimated to be $4,372,950 resulting in a projected year-end surplus of $2,300. The last time OGRA ran a defi cit was in 2000.

The last year proved to be a very busy year for OGRA and it was an honour and a pleasure to have served as President this year. I truly believe in the mission of OGRA and that the dedication of all the Board members and staff make this an extremely professional and eff ective organization. We worked well as a group bringing together many positions and views that helped us deal with several challenges head on.

When it comes to working for municipali-ties no one does it like OGRA.

It is tough staying fresh after 120 years. In a world where governments are

concerned with and responding to more and more demands, it can be a

major challenge to remain relevant. In 2014, as President of OGRA I got to

see what it takes to stay on the radar of our members and senior orders

of government. Here is my look back at some of OGRA’s key accomplish-

ments over the last year.

Tom Bateman President, OGRA


Executive Director’sRemarks

It’s hard to believe that this is my 10th Annual Report. There is the old saying that “time fl ies when you’re having fun” and I guess that’s why ten years have passed by so fast since I joined OGRA. It has been fun but also challenging and rewarding and could anyone really look for anything more in a job?

There are a few essential elements, in my opinion, that must be met to make a job worth sticking around for. First and foremost is the leadership and OGRA has been blessed with

some very good Board members over the years. The dynamics of the OGRA Board which is approximately half politicians and half-staff make for some very interesting discussions around the Board table, but always the vision has remained focused on serving our members in the best possible manner.

The second is the staff and OGRA has got some great employees past and present. There is a commitment here to doing the best job possible and to always put the organization fi rst. The work environment is inclusive and doesn’t just foster positive debate and discussion but encourages it. That, and the occasional good natured ribbing truly makes the OGRA offi ce a fun place to work. It is truly unique, in my opinion, to work with people that you have no problem including as your friends.

Finally there must be room to grow and that means a couple of things. Financial resources need to be there and through successive years of generating surpluses, OGRA has been able to reinvest your money back into new programs and services. This year is no exception. OGRA expects to generate a $75,000 surplus which helps fund our reserves and allows us to look at new and exciting ways to serve our members. Great examples of this are our Winter Web App, e-Tendering and our annual Advocacy Day at Queens Park. These initiatives would not be

possible without reinvesting fi nancial resources. Money alone is not the answer however. There has to be the will to think outside the box and push the envelope. OGRA does not sit back on its laurels. We are not satisfi ed with our past achievements and successes nor are we afraid to challenge convention. And that brings us full circle back to the Board and staff because it’s through them and because of them that OGRA continues to be one of the best municipal associations in Canada.

Unfortunately the last municipal election saw some really good OGRA Board members lose their political seats and therefore their Board seats. That means a lot of new faces on the Board as we move into 2015/16 but I remain confi dent that our vision remains sound and that OGRA will come out the other side stronger than ever.

Municipal DataWorks (MDW) municipaldataworks.caMDW is a web based data repository that can be used by municipalities to manage all of their infrastructure assets. MDW modules off er users the ability to value an asset for Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) compliance; inspect roads and bridges to determine condition; and plan for the capital investment required to maintain, rehabilitate, and reconstruct those assets. Over 85% of Ontario municipalities have at least one asset type populated in the data reposi-tory, and more municipalities using the Asset Valuation and Capital Infrastructure, Investment and Improvement Planning (CI3P) modules to enhance their asset management plans.

OGRA has continued to make signifi cant commitments to MDW in 2014 updating the software’s backend programming. This will continue in 2015 with improvement projects focused on updating the framework, database, and reporting services. In Addition, an MDW pilot project was initiated with the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARMs) and Memoran-dums of Understanding were signed with Municipal Information Systems Association (MISA) and the Ontario Recreation Facilities Association (ORFA).

The Road Authority (TRA) & eTenderingroadauthority.comTRA continues to bring together manufactures, distributors, and suppliers of infrastructure products and services with the municipal and provincial governments that use them. 2014 has seen the expansion in the number of products and services listed.

Municipal tenders are now advertised simultaneously on TRA and MERX providing distribution to a greater audience. OGRA held their fi rst of a series of procurement webinars in November looking at mitigating risk in municipal construction projects. If you missed Dennis Chamber-land’s presentation it can be downloaded from OGRA’s website. The next webinar is tentatively scheduled for March 2015 and will focus on bid bonding.

Winter Maintenance Operation Plan OGRAapps.comThe Winter Web App allows municipalities to create a customizable and comprehensive winter operations plan. The document covers: Winter Operations; Level of Service Policy; Winter Patrol; Material and Equipment Listing; Weather Monitoring; Winter Maintenance; Winter Preparations; Vulnerable Areas; Facilities and Staff ; Disposal and Decommissioning; Plow Routes and Other Mapping features. Since the launch, one hundred and twenty nine (129) municipalities and two (2) First Nation groups have started creating their winter operation and planning document.

The Winter Web App received the Transportation Association of Canada’s Achievement Award in 2014 for leadership, excellence and achievement in the transportation sector.

OGRA has begun to planning for the development of Version 2 of the Winter Web App for release in 2015. The update will allows users a more customizable experience, new mapping functions, and ability to add documents into the appendices. In addition, a Canadian and American version will be released for those municipalities not using the Minimum Maintenance Standards (MMS).

Technical ServicesOGRA continued to play an active role in infl uencing municipal best practices and policies through its participation on provincial/national committees, stakeholder groups, and consulta-tion/review panels. These included: Aggregate Recycling Ontario; Environment Canada – Salt Vulnerable Areas subcommittee; Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Canada; Minimum Maintenance Standards (MMS); Municipal Concrete Liaison Committee; Municipal Hot Mix Asphalt Liaison Committee; Ontario Road Coalition; Ontario Roads Salt Management Group; Road Weather Information System (RWIS); Source Water Protection committees; and the Trans-portation Association of Canada Standing Committees (Pavements, Soils and Materials) and Asset Management Task Force.

Policy & AdvocacyIn 2014 OGRA made considerable

strides toward fulfi lling our

mandate. The addition of Thomas

Barakat as OGRA Policy Advisor

gave the Policy Department the

energy and innovative mindset

needed to drive forward the

OGRA agenda.

Our most lasting accomplishment

was the creation of our fi ve

year Policy/Advocacy Strategy

in April, 2014. The strategy

focuses on OGRA’s well respected

reputation, our strong advocacy

eff orts, our valued internal and

external stakeholders, and how

we measure and quantify our

progressive success. In accordance

with that document, here are a

few of the achievements that

we realized in 2014.

Joint & Several

Liability Reform

Our most lasting

accomplishment was the

creation of our fi ve year

Policy/Advocacy Strategy

Frustrated by the experiences of dealing with political parties that are scrambling to stay afl oat during an election, the decision was made to modify our election strategy. Instead of the issue based questions with answers supplied by the parties, OGRA prepared an open letter and acquired many like-minded organizations to sign on. The letter called on the parties to hold a leaders debate on needed infrastructure support and funding. It was an

Early in 2014 it appeared that the Attorney General was prepared to move on the issue and introduce legislation that would provide some measure of protection for municipalities. Unfortunately the government fell before the legislation could be introduced and the new government advised that they had no intention of introducing any legislation on this matter.

attempt to leverage the heightened attention being paid to infrastructure investments during the campaign. Signatories to this initiative included AORS, MEA, MFOA, OPTA, ORBA, RCCAO, WEAO and Transport Futures. While the debate didn’t take place OGRA did received some valued media attention from the initiative.


Fair and Open Tending of Municipal

Projects

OGRA began working with a broad coalition of infrastructure associations looking to have the Labour Relations Act amended so that municipalities cannot be certifi ed as construction employers. Proponents of amending the Act contend that municipalities and other publicly funded institu-tions (e.g. schools boards) are not construction employers and should not be able to be certifi ed as such. When a municipality is certifi ed as a construction employer, it subjects it to the contracting out provisions in the Province Wide Collective Agreement, which in eff ect creates a closed labour market. In such a scenario, approxi-mately 70% of union and non-union workers are restricted from bidding and working on the publicly funded projects. It has been estimated, based on the experience of the City of Hamilton, that construction costs can be driven up by 40%.

In rural Ontario it is common for municipalities to contract with local farmers to provide snow clearing in some areas. Last winter a farmer under contract with a municipality was charged with operating his farm equipment on a municipal road while not engaged in farming. OGRA had discussion with MTO and the OPP and it was agreed that they would look at this issue. In the meantime it was agreed that any farmer who was under contract with a municipality would only need to produce a copy of the contract to avoid being charged.

Removal on Public Roads

Steadman v. County of

LambtonAdvocacy Day

Over the course of two separate sessions, a large number of proposed legislation was introduced that could aff ect municipal interests. The Policy Committee received reports on and/or is monitoring the following pieces of legislations: • Bill 179, – Public Sector and MPP Accountability and Transparency Act• Bill 181, – Reducing Gridlock and Improving Traffi c Flow Act• Bill 183, – Highway Traffi c Amendment Act (Clearing Vehicles of Snow & Ice)• Bill 173, – Highway Traffi c Amendment Act (Keeping Ontario’s Roads Safe)• Bill 167, – Invasive Species Act• Bill 30, Highway Incident Management Act• Bill 31, Transportation Statute Law Amendment Act• Bill 37, Invasive Species Act• Bill 59, The Gas Tax Fairness for All Act• Bill 44, Highway Traffi c Amendment Act (Clearing Vehicles of Snow and Ice)• Bill 46, Highway Traffi c Amendment Act (Off -road Vehicles)• Bill 58, Highway Traffi c Amendment Act (Utility Task and All-Terrain Vehicles)• Bill 69, Prompt Payment Act• Bill 167, Invasive Species Act

OGRA will continue its advocacy eff orts to secure sustainable infrastructure funding and to ensure that municipal interests and issues are considered in provincial and federal policy and program initiatives.

Legislative Monitoring

Once again, OGRA board members and staff descended on Queen’s Park in November for our annual advocacy day. Meetings where held with more than 65 MPP from all parties. During these meetings OGRA pushed the ideas of standardizing asset manage-ment plans, replicating the Municipal Bridge Data Collection Program and extending municipalities the legislative authority to generate own sourced revenues. These advocacy eff orts are on-going.

The Superior Court recently ruled in favour of a farmer who had fi le a claim against the County of Lambton crop damage and devaluation of his property caused as a result of salt migration off the county road from winter operations. OGRA approved a three prong response to the issue which includes: requesting the County’s insurer to appeal the decision and to fi le for intervener

status; petitioning the Minister to amend the legislation to protect municipalities from these types of nuisance complaints; and, meeting with MTO to discuss a joint response.


2014 saw the highest Road School attendance in its

55 year history.There were 460 students registered

to the T.J. Mahony – Construction Section. Another

390 students attended the various courses in the C.S.

Anderson program. We now have two course directors

for each of the Anderson courses. This will go a long

way toward ensuring both continuity and succession

planning for this important training series, which is

poised to celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2015.

The Municipal Infrastructure Training program,

which OGRA administers on behalf of the

Municipal Engineers Association, saw an overall

drop in attendance in 2014.The three Scott McKay

materials technology courses, and Bridge and

Structure Inspection were fully subscribed, and the

infrastructure design courses continued to draw

solid attendance fi gures. However, attendance

on other courses was lower than expected.

On a more positive note, we again held successful

workshops on trenchless technology. These

workshops are the result of a long-standing

partnership with the Centre for the Advancement

of Trenchless Technology from the University

of Waterloo.

We continue to develop course off erings for

our new Academy for Municipal Asset Manage-

ment, which are university level courses aimed

at developing the skills required to manage

tangible capital assets, in compliance with the

mandatory new provincial requirements.The

courses will lead to a new professional designa-

tion for municipal employees, the Accredited

Asset Manager.

Our two-day Municipal Roads Technology symposium was

held in late January with the theme Old Problems: Tried,

True, and New Approaches. Speakers presented the latest

technology and solutions to common challenges in asphalt,

concrete, and gravel road construction and maintenance.

In early November we held our Bridge Expo featuring a stellar

group of presenters including Dr. Roger Dorton, who is widely

recognized as the father of modern bridge design in Canada.

The theme of the two day event was Bridge Innovation – For

Now. For the Future.

Our award winning Snow School was held in Alliston in late

September. The curriculum is constantly being updated

to refl ect new technologies and new challenges to winter

maintenance operations. New modules were added on

winter sidewalk maintenance, and the winter maintenance

of gravel roads. Our Snow School for Mechanics also sets a

high standard for the top notch calibre of its content and

delivery. We have even seen students who come back to

attend the workshop a second time!

Without hesitation, we are proud to say that OGRA’s winter

operations training is the best in the country. Proof of this is

not only in the full classes at Snow School and Snow School

for Mechanics, but in the growing demand for on-site winter

operations training among Ontario’s municipalities and in

other provinces. Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Prince Edward

Island all used OGRA’s winter maintenance courses last year

to train their own employees.

We have seen steady growth in our contract training overall

for the past three years. Our members continue to respond

positively to the convenience of on-site training coupled with

elements of customization to fi t their unique circumstances.

A new initiative in 2014 was the launch of the Enhanced

Infrastructure specialist and professional categories of the

Certifi ed Municipal Manager designation. This partnership with

the Ontario Municipal Management Institute off ers recogni-

tion and personalized guidance to supervisors and managers

pursuing a career in municipal public works. Although the

new enhanced designation was just announced last summer,

we are delighted to report that we already have our fi rst two

Enhanced Infrastructure Specialist recipients.

We’ll close out this tour of training highlights from 2014 by

noting that although OGRA is a recognized national leader

in municipal public works training, we are not content to

rest on our laurels. We commissioned a marketing survey to

gain more in-depth understanding of the quickly changing

demographics, trends, and needs of you, our members. Watch

for the coming changes to our programs and delivery modes

in response to the priorities you have told us you want to see.

And lastly, a sincere and heartfelt Thank You to the many

talented and devoted volunteers who make our education

program such a success. You’ll fi nd a list of their names later

in this report.
