| WASH | Establishment of a community liaison office in AdS staffed with social inclusion and gender expertise. | Deferred, then met | The condition precedent required that the new multi-municipal utility, AdS, have a community liaison and social affairs unit set up by a specified stage in compact implementation. However, the formation of the utility itself was delayed, so that at that time that the condition precedent came due, the utility was in an early stage of formation and it was too early to have established this unit. AdS offered a temporary staffing solution deemed satisfactory by MCC in the short-term. Given this temporary solution, MCC deferred the condition precedent in order to allow AdS additional time to meet the condition precedent. The community liaison office was ultimately established and staffed to MCC’s satisfaction. |
