Section 5. Benchmarking <br />To ensure that the action steps meet and achieve the HRA goals, a system c� <br />review or benchmarking will be established to provide a litmus test for success. <br />The benchmark program for the Housing Plan is reviewed by two factors. <br />1.)Comparison with similar communities <br />2.) Outcome based evaluations <br />The HRA's annual report will include a comparison c� improvements, <br />renovations, programs and services with other first ring communities. The <br />comparisonwill also include funding levels and resources. <br />The Outcome Based Evaluation is a results oriented measurement cf how the <br />various programs have made a difference in the City. This method provides <br />accountability to funders and the community at large. In addition it provides a <br />return on the public investment and a sense that the community is getting <br />something for their money. The Outcome Based Evaluation approach helps <br />determine which programs are working, which are not and provides <br />opportunitiesto adjust strategies and tactics for increased effectiveness, as well <br />as direct resources to those programs with proven results. <br />�osevztl� Comprehensive P1an - 2003 Update Page 16 of 16 <br />
