Program staff <br />are enthusiastic about the possibility that the current HUD effort to gather data on <br />participants' performance measurement systems will result in the identification of a few <br />common measures grantees can use to benchmark and share data, to supplement the <br />City's current use of ICMA/CPM benchmarking data. <br /> <br />Performance Measurement at the City of Springfield <br />The City of Springfield incorporates performance measures in its annual budget process. <br />Performance measures are used for each City department and program including the <br />CDBG and HOME programs. Springfield's performance measurement system requires <br />proposed measures for the upcoming fiscal year, a mid-year progress check called <br />"estimated," and an end of fiscal year actual. These are reported for current and prior <br />years in the City's annual budget report.

The Consolidated Plan lists priorities and sets projected outcomes <br />over the five-year plan period. These goals and implementation measures address <br />housing, homeless, and community development efforts. In the annual OYAP, the <br />proposed accomplishments are listed on the project sheets. <br /> <br /> <br />
