MUNICIPAL ENGINEERS ASSOCIATION LIAISON COMMITTEE The Municipal Engineers Association (MEA) represents the interests of public sector engineers who work for municipalities. This long standing CEO-MEA Liaison Committee addresses issues of common interest. One of the committee’s most important accomplishments, the CEO-MEA Standard Agreement for Engineering Services, was established to address the professional engineering procurement needs of municipalities, and is used extensively by municipalities throughout Ontario. This year, the CEO-MEA Liaison Committee Task Force, supported by CEO’s Business Risk Committee, finalized its revision of the CEO-MEA Standard Agreement for Engineering Services for municipalities, culminating in its endorsement by both organizations. CEO staff are presently working to establish a joint copyright of the document. Work on the agreement’s marketing plan is well underway. Working together through the joint involvement with the Ontario Provincial Standards for Roads and Public Works (OPS), CEO and MEA have continued to provide guidance and insight into the future of the organization. Future objectives and activities for OPS are being discussed with provincial officials. I would like to express my thanks to CEO’s volunteers for their commitment to this committee over the past year and for the support of CEO’s staff.
