Highlights

In the last several years, the responsibilities of the Facilities Management Division have grown. The Division has assumed:

• The Urban Park opened in Q4 of 2022, the park maintenance budget will be managed by the Arena Division in cooperation with Public Works and the Facilities Management Division;
• Project management of major facility capital renovations projects for all City facilities;
• The role of facilities management for City facilities in terms of maintaining the facility, day-to-day maintenance, preventative maintenance, troubleshooting, coordinating small renovations and repairs;
• Management of a large number of residential rental properties for short term and long-term rentals;
• Performing due diligence when any property is purchased that includes a building;
• Energy management for the Corporation, reviewing, analyzing, forecasting consumption for all utilities and forecasting future years' costs;
• Managing the City's Asbestos Management Program for current condition and all abatement requirements as needed.

The growth has provided support and cost savings to all City departments. Facilities Management staff understand the technical aspects of the buildings and can coordinate global tenders for services such as snow clearing, cleaning, and maintenance of common building elements such as elevators and fire suppression equipment.
