The District of Tofino is developing a long-term Asset Management Strategy to guide the maintenance, renewal, and funding of community infrastructure, such as roads, water systems, parks, and public facilities. This strategy will help ensure that Tofino’s essential services remain reliable, sustainable, and aligned with community priorities. To shape this work, the District is asking residents and local businesses to share what they value most, what service levels they expect, and how they believe the community should balance costs and investments for the future.

What is Asset Management?

Asset Management is how the District plans, maintains, and funds community assets such as roads, parks, water systems, and public buildings so they remain reliable and safe over time. It helps determine when to repair, replace, or upgrade infrastructure while balancing service quality, cost, and long-term sustainability. For example, Asset Management helps decide whether it’s better to patch a road now or fully repave it later.



Why Asset Management Is Important

Tofino’s infrastructure must serve a visitor population far larger than its permanent resident base. Service level expectations are higher than typical for a community of this size and span multiple jurisdictions (federal and provincial). Community input will help confirm which services matter most, what level of service is expected, and how funding should be balanced across priorities.

Take the 5-Minute Survey

The District wants to hear directly from the people who live, work, and do business in Tofino. Your input will help identify which services and assets are most important, how well current service levels meet community needs, and what should be prioritized for future investment.

Everyone who completes the survey will be entered into a draw to win a $100 prepaid credit card. Survey closes on December 19, 2025.

How Your Feedback Will Be Used
The District will review all responses to identify common themes and priorities. Results will help shape the Asset Management Strategy and guide future budgeting and planning decisions.
