Timelines and Benchmarks Clause Samples

The "Timelines and Benchmarks" clause establishes specific deadlines and performance milestones that parties must meet during the course of an agreement. It typically outlines key dates for deliverables, phases of work, or project completion, and may include consequences for missing these targets, such as penalties or the right to terminate. This clause ensures that all parties are aligned on expectations and progress, helping to keep the project on track and providing a clear framework for accountability.
Timelines and Benchmarks. In the context of the SMP update, restoration planning is a long-term effort. The SMP guidelines include the general goal that local master programs “include planning elements that, when implemented, serve to improve the overall condition of habitat and resources within the shoreline area” (WAC 173-26-201(c)). As a long-range policy plan, it is difficult to establish meaningful timelines and measurable benchmarks in the SMP by which to evaluate the effectiveness of restoration planning or actions. Nonetheless, the legislature has provided an overall timeframe for future amendments to the SMP. In 2003, Substitute Senate Bill 6012 amended the Shoreline Management Act (RCW 90.58.080) to establish an amendment schedule for all jurisdictions in the state. Once ▇▇▇▇▇ County amends its SMP (on or before June 30, 2013), the County is required to review, and amend if necessary, its SMP once every eight years (RCW 90.58.080(4)). During this review period, the County should document progress toward achieving shoreline restoration goals. The review could include the following elements: • Reevaluating adopted restoration goals, objectives, and policies; • Summarizing both planning efforts (including application for and securing grant funds) and on-the-ground actions undertaken in the interim to meet those goals; and • Revising the SMP restoration planning element to reflect changes in priorities or objectives.

Another mechanism that may serve to establish timelines and benchmarks would be establishment of a shoreline restoration program organized like or integrated with the City’s capital improvement program (CIP). Similar to an infrastructure CIP, a shoreline restoration CIP would be evaluated and updated regularly. The CIP would be focused on site-specific projects and would be funded through grants. Further, other CIP projects, such as stormwater facility improvements, could be evaluated to determine if their design could advance shoreline restoration goals.
