Common use of Outcomes Report Clause in Contracts

Outcomes Report. By March 31 of each year, British Columbia and UBCM will provide to Canada an outcomes report that will outline the following program benefits: a) beneficial impacts on communities of completed Eligible Projects, supported by specific outcomes examples in communities; b) the impact of CCBF as a predictable source of funding; c) progress made on improving Local Government planning and asset management, including development or update of Housing Needs Assessments; and d) a description of how CCBF funding has alleviated housing pressures tied to infrastructure gaps and contributed to housing supply and affordability outcomes (further details on this requirement may be found in Schedule G – Housing Report). The outcomes report will present a narrative on how each program benefit is being met. A template and guidance document will be provided by Canada. In support of transparency and accountability of the CCBF, the following communications protocol will apply to all communications activities undertaken regarding any CCBF funding and will apply to the Parties and Ultimate Recipients. Communicating to Canadians on the use of CCBF funding is clearly linked with our joint accountability to Canadians. Compliance with this protocol will inform the timing and flow of any CCBF funding and is critical to meeting our joint commitment to transparency.
