Unfortunately each "Open Government License" is different, and when I've 
asked about license compatibility I've received different answers from 
different licensors, so you'll have to ask the municipality about ODbL 
compatibility. I suggest asking about CC BY compatibility at the same time.

I have gotten affirmative answers from the Federal government and BC. I 
have gotten a negative answer from the City of Vancouver. I've got 
queries out with some other BC cities, but nothing final from them.
