摘要

Canadian municipalities are faced with the difficult task of operating and maintaining aging infrastructure. The citizens within these municipalities rely on this infrastructure for everyday needs including clean drinking water, safe roads to travel, and enjoyable facilities for leisure. The municipal authorities tasked with operating and maintaining this infrastructure to an acceptable level of serviceability are the directors, coordinators, managers, and municipal employees within the municipal departments. Throughout the 54 Canadian medium population centres examined and surveyed, the municipal departments varied in terms of nomenclature, delegated responsibility, division composition, and organizational structure. Research was conducted on all (54) medium centres in Canada to gather the similarities and differences between these municipalities and departments. This knowledge was then used to investigate the applicability of using a multidisciplinary team to help provide an approach for the municipal authorities to effectively improve the overall sustainability of existing infrastructure. A multidisciplinary team would offer a decision making strategy, in order to effectively implement sustainable short and long term planning decisions for municipal infrastructure operation and maintenance. In order to gain an understanding of the municipalities' perspectives on short and long term sustainability, research was also conducted on these 54 centres to compile their sustainability goals, priorities, and initiatives. Qualitative research findings are provided in this paper to demonstrate a proposed overarching categorization of municipal departments and sustainability goals and priorities. The findings suggest that the municipal authorities can be categorized within three infrastructure departments and municipal sustainability priorities can be classified under six headings. Future research will explore the multidisciplinary team approach.
