Site work for a water / sewer project in The Blue Mountains, Ontario. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

This Request for Proposals (the "RFP") is an invitation by The Corporation of the Town of The Blue Mountains (the "Town") to prospective proponents to submit proposals for Water Meter Replacement Program with Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), as further described in Section A of the RFP Particulars (Appendix B) (the "Deliverables"). The Town of The Blue Mountains is Canada's second fastest growing municipality and serves as home to over 9,300 full-time residents, with an extensive part-time and seasonal population. Recognized as Ontario's true four-season tourism and recreation destination, the Blue Mountains welcomes an additional 2.5 million visitors annually and offers a high-quality lifestyle that caters to families looking to build a solid foundation, adventurers looking to go off the beaten path and relaxation seekers taking in and experiencing the very best the area has to offer. Built on a strong foundation of agriculture and tourism, the success of the local economy has been driven largely by innovation and entrepreneurship across the sectors of agriculture, tourism, construction, small business and hospitality and service. The Town is located on the south shore of Georgian Bay. The permanent resident population of the Town, according to the estimated 2021 Census, is 9,321; however, since a large contingent of the property owners are seasonal residents, the combined serviced population is expected to be in the range of 23,000. When the various ski resorts are operating at peak capacity, the equivalent population is estimated to be 60,000. The Town currently has an installed base of approximately 6200 Neptune water meters, ranging in size from 5/8" to 4". Meter reading technology consists of approximately 4800 ProRead touch pads and approximately 1400 integrated R900 RF Transmitters. The Town currently uses Great Plains by Diamond (Central Square) utility billing software, and the current water meter software is Neptune 360. The Town is soliciting proposals from qualified vendors to undertake a meter replacement program and installation of an AMI system, including all necessary software.
