Unfortunately, your project proposal was not selected to move forward to the application phase of the OCIF. Nearly 350 EOIs were received and all were subject to careful consideration and evaluation. Your EOI did not pass the pre-screen phase primarily because other EOIs demonstrated more clearly that there was a critical health and / or safety problem and how the proposed project would address it. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call the contact centre at or OCIF@ontario.ca. Thank you for your interest in the OCIF Application-Based Component. Sincerely, Joel Locklin Manager (A), Program Operations

Economic conditions and fiscal situations were assessed using a combination of: total weighted property assessment per household median household income average of net financial assets less total liabilities (between ) per household average total residential property taxes, user fees and service charges (between ) per household as a percentage of median household income Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call the contact centre at or SCF@ontario.ca.
