A
Good
morning
welcome
to
the
June
meeting
of
the
Housing
Opportunity
Fund
Advisory
Board.
We
are
here
and
expecting
a
quorum
any
minute,
so
we
are
gonna,
go
ahead
and
get
started.
We
start
with
public
comment.
I
don't
have
anyone
signed
up
for
public
comment?
We
also
do
public
comment
at
the
end
as
well.
Is
there
anyone
from
the
public
that
would
like
to
speak.
B
A
Yes,
okay,
so
let's
go
on
to
roll
Lina
here,
Jamil!
Not
here
Richard,
not
here,
Kyle
I
will
mark
him
absent,
but
he
has
officially
left
a
ura
and
left
the
committee
Johanna
here.
C
C
A
A
E
Good
morning,
everybody
in
late
March,
the
URA
released
the
urin
Housing
Opportunity
Fund
released
an
RFP
titled,
affordable
for
sale
housing.
It
was
in
conjunction
with
the
Neighborhood
Stabilization
program.
That's
also
being
run
out
of
the
ura
on
behalf
of
the
city
as
well
as
this
for
sale
development
program.
That
is
one
of
hof
five
programs
for
the
2018
allocation
year
together.
Those
were
those
two
sources
summed
up
to
a
three
point:
two
five
million
dollar
pool
of
funds
we
received
the
the
due
date
for
the
RFP
was
in
late
April.
E
We
received
responses
from
about
ten
organizations
for
62
properties
overall
requesting
about
3.6
million
dollars
in
funding.
So
today
we're
going
to
be
taking
three
projects
that
were
identified
as
good
fits
for
the
HOF
for
sale
development
program.
However,
I
want
to
note
that
these
aren't
the
only
three
that
were
fit
they're,
just
the
only
three
that,
after
review,
we
have
a
strong
level
of
certainty
that
they'll
be
closing
relative
relatively
soon
in
the
next
couple
of
months
or
so
so
as
the
summer
goes
on,
we'll
probably
be
taking
more
projects
back
today.
E
There's
of
that
1.25
million-
that
was
in
the
HOF
line
item
we're
gonna,
be
taking
close
to
650
thousand
for
approvals
today.
That
would
leave
about
six
hundred
thousand
remaining
and
we
think
that
there's
probably
four
or
five
other
projects
in
the
pipeline
that,
as
they
become
ready,
you'll
likely
be
seeing
so
the
first
project
that
we'll
talk
about.
If
you
want
to
look
at
your
Lawrenceville
packet,
this
is
for
the
Lawrenceville
Community
Land
Trust
phase
2,
it's
six
properties
throughout
Central
and
lower
Lawrenceville
phase.
E
One
of
the
Lawrenceville
CLT
was
undertaken
around
the
summer
of
2017
with
occupancy
by
summer
or
spring
of
2018.
Those
were
seven
homes,
six
were
new
construction
and
one
was
a
rehab
for
those
seven
units
they
received
over
200
intakes
from
interested
and
qualified
households.
So
there
was
quite
the
demand,
thus
they're
going
for
a
Phase
two.
Now
again,
this
is
six
units.
Three
of
them
are
got
rehabs
and
then
three
are
kind
of
more
remodels
or
rehabs
needing
cosmetic
and
system
updates.
E
If
you
look
at
section
C,
we
kind
of
call
out
B
different
unit
sizes,
the
sales
prices
in
the
level
of
affordability,
they're,
all
around
it's
I
believe,
probably
an
average
of
about
$130,000
which,
for
these
sized
homes,
two
bedrooms,
one
bath
for
the
most
part
in
Lawrenceville,
their
market
rate
comparables,
are
in
the
300.
Thousands
right
now,
so
certainly
a
much
needed
product
in
the
Lawrenceville
neighborhood.
E
Interestingly,
the
way
that
they
acquired
these
properties,
one
was
donated
from
Children's
Hospital
two
were
sold
by
longtime
owner
occupants.
They
want
to
do
sure
that
other
folks,
there
sort
of
other
folks
like
them,
could
move
into
the
neighborhood
and
then
one
from
the
property
reserve
and
then
another
from
a
community
minded
landlord
who
wanted
to
see
a
low-income
family
move
into
the
neighborhood
as
well.
E
Lawrenceville
corporation
came
in
with
a
request
for
$300,000,
which
is
actually
the
maximum
amount,
as
per
our
guidelines
that
can
be
requested
and
awarded
to
one
project.
So
that's
$50,000
per
unit,
the
recommended
amount
is
three
hundred
thousand
in
the
form
of
a
grant,
and
the
affordability
period
would
be
four
ninety
nine
years.
We
don't
see
this
being
an
issue
as
they're
gonna,
be
in
the
Land
Trust
anyways,
which
would
have
a
99
year,
affordability
period.
E
There's
two
separate
ura
sources:
one
is
a
you
dag
loan
and
the
other
is
our
pittsburgh
housing
construction
fund
coming
out
of
ura
housing
department.
They
have
a
fair
request
which
they
expect
to
hear
from
later
on
this
month
and
committed
philanthropy
dollars,
as
well
as
a
request
to
the
Hillman
foundation.
That
I
believe
is
slated
to
be
approved
sometime
either
later
this
week
or
in
the
next
couple
of
weeks.
That
brings
their
total
sources
to
1.7
million
as
well.
E
E
This
project
scored
36
out
of
40
there
and
then
policy
objectives
goes
more
along
the
lines
of
geographic
diversity,
energy
efficiency,
how
they
scored
on
p4,
and
that
was
a
total
of
60
points,
so
they
got
53
from
that.
So
I'll
stop
there
and
if
there's
questions
about
this
or
if
II
do
you
want
to
come
to
the
mic
and
speak
feel
free,
but
actually.
D
A
G
First
I
wanna
say
thank
you
to
this
advisory
board
and
the
or
a
board,
and
also
to
our
advocacy
ally,
has
to
helped
bring
this
funny.
This
money
into
creation,
quick
update
on
the
feasibility
and
financials
that
Evan
ran
through
Hillman
foundation.
Request
was
awarded
yesterday,
so
that
money
is
confirmed
as
well
as
the
fair
question
there
was
actually
awarded
than
last
year's
fair
round.
So
we
have
those
funds
in
hand
as
well.
G
G
A
G
H
G
A
G
For
sure
that's
and
that's
a
confusing
one,
so
I'm
glad
you
asked
Lana.
So
as
of
April
1st
of
this
year,
Lawrenceville
corporation
began
the
process
of
spinning
off
our
land
trust
program
into
a
separate
501c3
entity
which
is
city
of
bridges,
Community
Land
Trust.
So
that
has
an
independent
board
that
but
is
operating
for
the
remainder
of
this
year
and
for
this
project
as
a
fiscally
sponsored
entity
of
the
Lawrenceville
corporation.
While
Articles
of
Incorporation
bylaws
501,
C
3
are
all
filed
on
behalf
of
city
of
bridges.
G
G
No,
the
reason
for
creating
city
of
bridges
was
to
take
this
out
of
a
single
neighborhood
fiefdom
and
hopefully
bring
this
tool
to
scale
in
the
region,
so
the
communities
that
are
being
served
right
now,
our
polish
shell,
Lawrenceville
and
then
outside
of
the
city,
Millville,
Aetna
and
Sharpsburg
Sonia-
is
on
the
board
as
well
representing
Hazelwood
initiative.
Hopefully
there's
a
partnership.
That's
worked
out
there
as
well
in
the
near
future,
so.
A
G
We
are,
we
are,
should
say
that
you
know
a
couple
of
these
were
early
work
on
that
we're
longtime
owners
who
wanted
to
sell
their
homes
and
guarantee
that
families
like
theirs
would
stay
in
the
neighborhood.
We're
also
working
with
some
longtime
owners
to
figure
out
how
we
can
deliver
resources
to
help
them
do
upgrades
to
all
them
to
age
in
place
and
in
exchange
they
either
enter
into
an
option
agreement
with
the
Land
Trust
or
become
land
trust
owners
immediately.
G
We
are
looking
at
this
idea,
borrowing
an
idea
from
our
partners
and
Hazelwood
of
how
do
we
not
just
build
a
pipeline
of
development
but
a
pipeline
of
homebuyers,
and
how
do
we
work
with
people
and
walk
with
them
in
the
process
of
becoming
creditworthy
and
mortgage
eligible,
and
that's
probably
a
long-term
lease
situation?
Let
them
stabilize
in
place
work
on
that
credit
and
budget
counseling
and
then
move
into
ownership
in
the
CLT
and
then
also
we're
launching
across
the
river
this
year.
A
A
A
So
so
yeah,
so
just
just
to
be
clear
for
the
resolution.
It's
it's
three
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
the
form
of
a
grant
for
an
acquisition,
rehab
and
resale
of
six
scattered
site
units,
and
we
did
not
put
a
date,
but
it
is
what
we've
been
doing
with
the
rental
gap
program
is
giving
everybody
four
months
from
the
time
of
the
commitment
to
closed.
So
that
would
be
120
days
from
today.
H
E
Right
we're
gonna
move
on
to
Oakland.
Now
this
is
Oakland
Planning
and
Development
Corporation,
specifically
funding
the
Oakland
Community
Land
Trust
before
us.
Today
we
have
kind
of
a
two-part
project.
One
side
of
it
is
for
two
existing
single-family
homes
in
the
rehab
of
them,
and
the
second
part
of
this
is
pre
development
financing
for
five
to
be
constructed,
affordable
homes
on
Frasier
Street
in
South
Auckland,
which
is
currently
those
five
Lots,
are
currently
vacant
land
or
a
in
a
condemned
house.
E
But
looking
at
the
two
remodels
one
is
on
Park
View
Avenue
and
then
the
other
is
on
Robinson
Street.
These
are
these.
These
houses,
Oh
PVC,
currently
owns
one
of
them
and
has
a
sales
agreement
on
the
other.
One
both
would
be
brought
in
to
OPD
seized
ownership
in
the
next
month
or
so
I
believe,
if
they're
ready
to
close
on
that
second
house
and
work
would
begin
almost
immediately.
E
They
don't
really
have
a
general
contractor,
because
it's
kind
of
like
a
piecemeal
project
of
just
small
things
around
the
house,
that
the
houses
that
need
to
be
brought
up
to
kind
of
modern
livable
standards,
Fraser
Street,
this
pre-development
financing,
would
be
alone
to
two
OPD
see
that
they
could
use
to
help
with
site
acquisition
which
they
already
own.
These
Lots
demolition,
architectural
services
engineering
work
things
in
that
like,
and
this
would
be.
E
E
State
of
disrepair
for
around
like
180
or
something
no
contingencies,
and
then
not
really
fixing
it
up
and
just
renting
it
out.
So
we're
definitely
excited
about
the
opportunity
to
kind
of
help
go
against
that
trend
in
Oakland
right
now.
So
the
requested
amount
here
shows
up
as
two
hundred
and
twelve
thousand
dollars,
but
because
there's
two
different
sort
of
forms
of
financing
we'll
walk
through
that
one
hundred
forty
thousand
is
a
grant
and
that
would
go
towards
those
two
rehabs
that
are
going
on
on
Park
View
in
Robinson.
E
B
E
Even
though
they'll
be
doing
work
kind
of
on
a
over
the
entire,
the
the
the
work
that's
being
done
might
be
for
all
five
in
one
sort
of
transaction
with
sale
in
architektur
like
a
geotech
services,
company
and
again
the
affordability
period.
For
that
these
all
seven
of
these
units
would
be
ninety
nine
years
and
they
head
into
the
land
trust
that
Oakland
has
right
now.
Looking
at
their
budget,
the
total
development
costs
right
now
are
about
six
hundred
twenty
thousand
dollars.
E
So
with
that
all
those
pieces
in
place
this
deal
is
ready
to
move
forward
construction
on
the
to
rehab
units
almost
immediately,
and
then
the
pre
development
efforts
would
just
get
ramped
up
with
this
infusion
of
funding
MWBE
there,
their
narrative
has
been
accepted
by
performance
and
compliance
at
the
ura
and
again
closing
would
be
contingent
upon
them.
Having
final
approvals
on
that,
the
project
benefit
kind
of
touched
on
it
a
little
bit
earlier,
but
I
believe
Oakland
has
a
stated
goal
of
having
around
50%
home
ownership
at
some
point
in
the
future
owner
occupancy.
E
This
projects
ready
to
move
forward
and
we
believe
at
a
pretty
decent
price.
Given
the
current
market
and
they've
made
a
commitment
towards
using
energy-efficient
materials-
and
you
know
providing
some
leadership
in
the
community
through
this
land
trust
model,
so
they
scored
36
out
of
40
on
the
feasibility
criteria
and
49
out
of
60
on
our
policy
objectives.
H
E
Yes,
yeah
I
mean
it
kind
of
got
rolled
into
one
here,
but
the
that
money
from
the
open
it's
written
as
open
housing,
fun
sexually.
The
Oakland
Development
Fund,
some
of
what
they're
taking
from
that
will
also
be
going
into
pre
development.
But
then
the
rest
of
that
goes
into
the
rehab
of
the
two
units.
The.
A
B
A
L
B
L
You
know
the
last
one
we
did.
We
thought,
oh,
if
we
just
put
that
as
at
market
rate,
it
won't
become
investor
driven
and
we
were
wrong.
They,
you
turned
into
investor
houses
right
away.
So
what's
nice
about
this
new
Community
Land
Trust
model
is
we're
keeping
them
owner-occupied
and
we're
making
them
affordable
as
well
so
yeah.
This
is
theirs
Fraser
streets,
nice,
because
there's
a
good
variety
of
new
construction
and
an
older
houses-
and
this
is
on
the
block
closer
to
the
new
life
Baptist
Church
and
there's
we've
been
collecting
these
houses.
L
A
M
A
So
the
uses
total
sources
but
yeah
we
haven't
been
putting
the
the
use
line
items
but
I
have
the
budgets
that
everyone's
welcome
to
look
at
and
I,
and
we
can
start
I
mean.
How
would
you
like
us
to
do
that?
Like
do
you
want
the
budget,
the
budgets,
the
reason
we're
not
doing
them
is
like
I,
have
to
print
them
on
11
by
17.
But
would
you
like
us
to
like
maybe
summarize,
five
line
items
like
acquisition,
you
that.
A
M
I
L
L
J
A
comment
about
Frasier
Street
I'm,
not
sure
that
people
have
a
full
understanding
of
the
Oakland
community
and
the
levels
of
poverty
that
actually
exists,
particularly
in
South
Auckland.
So
these
particular
communities
when
these
in
these
properties
turn
into
investment
properties,
really
drives
out
the
historical
groups
that
have
lived
in
this
area,
and
there
are
generations
of
folks
that
are
trying
to
hold
on
to
maintain
and
upkeep
this
housing
when
OPD
si
makes
these
kind
of
investments
that
draws
attention
to
the
neighborhood.
J
That
brings
other
resources
that
actually
help
to
stabilize
those
families
as
well,
so
I
think
that
what's
been
happening
on
Frasier
Street
isn't
extremely
critical
to
this
neighborhood
because
it
was
neglected
for
so
long.
I
love
to
see
these
properties
I
know
they've
been
assembled
over
a
really
long
period
of
time,
so
being
able
to
see
the
funding
packages
come
together.
M
B
M
A
I
E
This
is
the
third
and
final
one
that
we're
taking
today
from
the
Hill
Community
Development
Corporation,
two
properties,
one
on
Main
Street
to
five
one
seven
and
then
one
at
five,
two
to
LAN
lease
place.
This
is
part
of
the
Hill
District
100,
which
is
a
initiative
in
the
Hill
District
believe
champion
by
the
hill
CVC,
to
provide
relevant
and
meaningful
education
to
potential
homebuyers,
with
the
idea
of
kind
of
building
wealth
in
the
neighborhood
through
home
ownership.
E
A
note
about
the
hill
CDC's
application
that
this
these
are
two
properties
they
submitted
for
I,
believe
17
in
total,
from
between
both
of
the
programs,
so
we
might
be
seeing
more
from
them
as
the
summer
goes
on,
but
these
two
projects,
our
properties,
are
ready,
ready
to
go
almost
as
soon
as
this
funding
goes
through.
So.
E
However,
we
are
also
considering
today,
second
deferred
mortgages.
That
would
bring
that
level
of
affordability
down
potentially
to
50%
ami
buyers,
which
would
be
a
fantastic
thing.
These
homes
will
need
some
masonry
repair.
New
windows
and
doors
system
updates
to
HVAC
and
electrical
they'll
put
a
150
amp
service
into
each
one.
E
With
these
two
homes,
it
seems
to
be
right
in
their
wheelhouse
currently,
so
the
requested
amount
was
$85,000,
that's
about,
or
that
is
forty,
two
thousand
five
hundred
per
unit
in
the
form
of
a
grant
and
again
what
we're
gonna.
What
we're
recommending
today
is
that
eighty
five
thousand
in
the
form
of
a
grant
and
then
fifty
thousand
in
deferred
second
mortgages
for
both
properties.
So
that's
a
$25,000
deferred.
Second
mortgage
on
each
property.
B
E
Of
affordability,
while
staying
within
the
program
guidelines,
which
has
a
maximum
award
amount
of
seventy
thousand
per
unit,
so
between
the
grant
and
the
deferred
second
mortgage
that
comes
out
to
sixty-seven
thousand
five
hundred
per
unit
for
both
of
these
properties,
the
affordability
period.
This
is
not
a
land
trust,
but
there
would
be
an
affordability,
deed
restriction
for
ninety
nine
years
on
both
of
these
properties
and
the
the
budget
for
this
deal
and
the
total
development
costs
for
both
are
together
three
hundred
thirteen
thousand
dollars.
E
The
acquisitions
were
around
45,000
for
each
unit
and
hard
costs
the
construction
rehabilitation
around
90
thousand
each
to
get
these
online
so
and
then
there's
various
kind
of
like
fees
and
permits
that
do
add
up,
but
those
are
kind
of
them
or
significant.
So
it's
about
a
hundred
fifty
thousand
dollars
for
each
acquisition
and
Rehab.
E
A
If
a
dollar
of
grant
financing
is
used
for
the
construction
or
rehabilitation
and
hard
costs
of
the
house,
a
triggers
prevailing
wage
in
most
all
these
situations,
you
are
seeing
acquisition
and
soft
costs
exceed
the
amount
of
D.
You
are
a
financing,
so
if,
if
do
you
are
a
financing
is
used
for
acquisition
and
soft
costs?
A
M
O
Serban
from
the
hill
CDC,
hello,
everyone
welcome
glad
to
be
here.
This
is
very
exciting
for
us
opening
to
answer
all
of
your
questions
on
these
two
particular
ones.
We
had
dollar
bank
two
an
appraisal,
so
we
have
those
as
appraised
prices,
it's
possible.
This
is
a
few
months
ago
that
those
were
done
that
the
prices
have
gone.
I
do
expect
that
it
is
somewhat
related
to
the
location
and
number
of
bedrooms.
O
H
O
O
Are
in
the
process
of
land
trust,
we've
had
a
lot
of
advice
and
had
a
number
of
meetings
I'm,
not
often
in
those
meetings
but
I've
attended
some.
So
it's
moving
forward
looking
to
do
I
believe
10
properties
over
the
next
couple
of
years,
and
hopefully,
even
in
this
year,
it
will
be
in
place
that.
H
O
A
So
that's
what
I
was
just
going
to
say
a
couple
things
on
that,
so
we
will
record
a
restrictive
covenants.
It's
a
recordable
document
that
gets
recorded
for
the
99
years.
I
will
say.
However,
there
have
been
times
that
title
companies
have
not
caught
that
when
they
go
to
transact
on
the
house.
That
is
actually
the
other
reason
why
the
hill
actually
technically
didn't
apply
for
the
deferred
mortgage
money.
A
But
our
suggestion
for
the
deferred
mortgage
money
is
twofold:
one
is
their
sales
prices
are
low
enough
that,
with
some
deferred
mortgage
money,
it's
possible
to
get
a
household,
a
50
percent
ami
into
home
ownership.
So
we
wanted
to
help
encourage
them
to
do
that.
If
that,
if
that's
possible
and
then
secondly,
we
will
record
that
deferred
mortgage.
So
all
of
a
sudden
we
have
a
lien
on
the
property.
So
when
it
does
sell,
the
title
company
will
definitely
catch
that
and
we
will
be
notified
at
that
point.
O
B
O
M
A
A
I
When
we
evaluate
these
rehabs,
do
we
look
at
all
at
accessibility
and
I?
Don't
know
if
we
put
in
like
five
thousand
more
dollars
you
can
put
in
a
ramp.
I
know
a
lot
of
single-family
homes,
it's
impossible
and
we
don't
want
to
add
bird
into
the
projects,
but
it
seems
like
something
we
should
think
about
when
we're
putting
funds
into
projects
like
these
could.
A
A
I
Q
E
A
New
construction,
we
do
we
work
with
the
Green
Building
Alliance,
so
development
like
Frazier
Street.
Five
new
houses
will
need
to
go
through
that
that
work
with
the
Green
Building
Alliance,
but
for
these
individual
rehabs
I
mean
to
Evans
blame
pretty
much.
Everyone
uses
Energy,
Star
appliances
and
so
on,
but
but
it's
sometimes
in
capitalizing,
like
the
airflow
and
stuff,
is
more
expensive
and
adds
more
costs.
B
M
While
the
mortgage
might
be
affordable,
a
lot
of
these
folks
are
going
from
not
paying
light
and
gas
and
water
to
doing
that.
Are
there
any
tools
available?
Do
we
have
a
weatherization
program
or
something
that
can
kind
of
be
baked,
that
the
home
is
at
least
secure,
so
that
they
don't
have
high
heating
costs
yeah.
A
Q
I
mean
just
to
just
add
on
I
think
when
you
look
at
the
level
of
energy
burden
that
the
city
has
and
specifically
we're.
Second
in
the
country
for
energy
burden,
for
black
people
buy
homes
frankly
and
poor
people
so
I
mean
just
again
to
echo
domotics
point
you
can
buy
the
house,
but
if
the,
if
the
utilities
go
up
and
now
you
have
a
huge
utility
burden,
it
balanced
out
whatever
was
happening
so
just
we're
being
thoughtful.
Around
kind
of
the
situations
that
were
putting
especially
low-income
buyers
into.
J
J
Do
we
think
about
utility
costs?
How
do
we
think
about
saving
for
emergencies,
things
like
home,
warranties
or
there
was
a
good
thing
or
those
a
bad
thing.
You
know
they're
always
on
TV
they're
always
on
the
market.
Is
that
a
good
investment,
or
would
it
be
better
to
put
your
$500
into
a
savings
account?
You
know,
what
really
are
we
doing
across
the
board
related
to
home
ownership
and
is
that
somehow
baked
into
each
one
of
these
programs,
so
that
folks.
M
One
of
the
benefits
to
this
particular
deal
with
it
being
the
hill
CDC
and
I'm
having
the
Hill
District
100
is
that
homeowners
are
getting
that
education
on
the
front
and,
and
they
have
support
on
the
back
end
for
a
lot
of
these
deals
are
in
neighborhoods,
where
there
isn't
that
programmatic
redress.
Maybe
we
think
about
in
2020,
deploying
some
dollars
to
support
programs
like
the
Hill
District
100,
so
that
homeowners
are
getting
the
education
and
the
support
that
they
need
as
a
wraparound.
A
Agreed-
and
we
have
talked
at
the
URA
numerous
times
about
I
mean
our
dream.
We
had
a
lot
of
extra
time.
We
need
to
figure
out
how
to
do
a
homeownership
training
class
that
wasn't
just
about
how
to
purchased
a
home
and
not
a
closing
stuff
related
to
that,
but
but
about
what
happens
when
when
you
live
there
and
and
how
do
you
even
change
light
bulbs
and
repair,
you
know
ceiling
fans
and
things
like
that,
and
so
that
would
be
a
dream
is
to
have
a
class
like
that.
We.
M
Require
the
the
we
require
it
on
the
front
end
to
figure
out
how
to
get
the
credit
together,
but
there's
a
sustainability
factor
here,
because
we
don't
want
people
foreclosing
on
their
homes
because
they're
going
into
something
that
they've
not
been
adequately
prepared
for.
So
if
we
could
give
some
thought
to
that,
I
think
that
would
be
helpful
and
also.
A
I
will
say
and
I
don't
know
if
I
have
the
terminology
correct,
Majestic
might
know,
but
but
the
city
is
working
with
neighborhood
allies
to
have
financial
counsellors
in
every
neighborhood
and
they
are
free.
They
are
open
to
the
public,
and
people
can
get
I.
Think
it's
up
to
eight
one-hour
sessions
with
financial
counsellors,
they're.
Q
Like
eight
or
ten
locations
yeah,
we
have
financial
empowerment,
centers
located
across
the
city
in
conjunction
with
neighborhood
allies,
and
so
people
can
actually
call
into
a
number
and
then
be
putting
cue
to
get
up
to
eight
hours
of
financial
kind
of
coaching
to
talk
about
whatever
the
situation
is.
So
what
I'll
do
is
make
sure
we
get
that
information
to
you
Jessica,
so
you
can
get
it
to
CDC's
and
CBO's
that
yeah.
That
could
also
be
an
additional
thing
post
kind
of
when
people
get
to
homes
and
I.
J
Wonder
if
it's
possible
to
tap
into
the
HUD
resources,
because
the
HUD
local
office
has
responsibilities
and
obligations
to
be
doing
this
homeowner
training,
specifically
so
I
wonder
if
there
is
a
way
to
tap
into
what
they
have
combine,
that
with
what
allies
has
and
make
that
something.
That's
available.
More
broad-based,
yeah.
Q
That's
a
great
plan
thing
we
should
layer
it
to
to
whatever
degree
possible
just
so
that
again
that
were
that
we're
assisting
people
that
we're
doing
a
good
thing
by
helping
people
build
equity,
but
at
the
same
time
things
happen
in
people's
lives
and
if
you
know
they
got
into
a
house
and
then
now
the
you
know,
gas
bill
is
$200
that
meant
before
they
paid
40
it
balances
out
whatever
they
didn't
pay
and
you
know,
rent
versus
mortgages,
so
just
trying
to
be
doleful
around
it.
I
think.
H
It's
one
benefit
to
supporting
the
community
land
Trust's
and
some
of
the
groups
that
are
doing
that
stewardship
right,
because
that's
one
part
of
the
model
and
also
they
kind
of
get
that
lease
feed
I
kept
determine
whether
or
not
somebody's
kind
of
struggling
to
pay
their
mortgage
and
cannanore
being
there
pretty
low
foreclosure
rate.
So.
H
M
I
P
H
A
P
B
A
A
The
groups
that
have
applied
for
NSP
and
HOF
together
and
it's
a
secretary
Hill
Development
Corporation
Brightwood
Civic
Council,
Bloomfield,
Garfield
Corporation
and
Hill
Community
Bowman
corporation
Oakland
planning,
Devon,
Corporation,
Lawrenceville,
Corporation,
Imani,
Christian,
Obama,
Corporation
and
East
Liberty,
Development
Inc.
Those
are
applications
we
received.
Nobody
has
been
turned
down,
we're
just
in
the
process
of
reviewing
and
looking
at
construction
costs.
Another
finest.
C
Before
we
move
on
so
just
a
few
quick
things,
we
I
think
we
need
to
think
about.
Even
when
a
vote
is
abstain.
How
comments
can
still
be
you
know
incorporated,
but
in
light
of
that,
two
things
came
to
mind
with
the
discussions
that
were
just
had
I
think
we
can
deal
with
these
things
within
the
policy.
C
First
of
all,
for
low-income
buyers
who
are
getting
downpayment
assistance,
we
can
require
that
everyone
has
to
get
a
home
warranty,
so
that's
kind
of
one
way
to
protect
those
low-income
buyers,
and
then
I
heard
the
amante
talking
about
weatherization
I
used
to
have
a
very
successful
weatherization
a
company,
but
for
low-income
buyers.
We
can
also
make
that
a
requirement
that
weatherization
has
to
be
a
part
of
the
rehab
cost.
On
average,
the
cost
may
be
about
four
thousand
dollars.
It's
not
really
that
much
more.
C
A
I
M
A
Right
now,
the
ura
we
have
a
program,
two
picks
for
home
rehab
program,
which
it
is
not
a
requirement
they
people
can
borrow
up
to
twenty-five
thousand.
Without
that,
however,
we
will
do
a
free
energy
assessment
and
if
they
they
choose
to
do
the
repairs
that
the
assessment
identifies
like
the
installation
or
the
new
windows,
then
we
will
let
them
borrow
an
additional
10
up
to
thirty
five
thousand.
So
that's
the
program.
A
We
have
right
now
in
terms
of
that
to
hof
that
the
hap,
the
homeowner
assistance
program,
that
program
is
up
to
thirty
thousand
dollars
worth
of
repairs.
Major
code
issues
are
done
first,
but
then
the
program
administrators
works
with
the
homeowners
to
identify
the
rest
of
the
scope
and
I'm
sure
they
are.
You
know
talking
to
the
homeowners
about
some
weatherization,
but
that's
not
currently
a
requirement
of
DHAP
program.
D
You
guys
are
looking
at
the
specs
on
these,
but
I'm,
assuming
that
that
stuff's
happening
it
might
not
be
feasible
if
you've
got
a
brick.
You
know
solid
brick
construction
to
frame
all
of
that
stuff
on
the
inside
to
put
insulation
that
that's
going
to
add
a
lot
more
than
4-thousand,
but
that
we're
we're.
B
B
A
I
mean
I
talked
to
our
construction
inspection
departments.
I
just
don't
know
the
answers
in
that
level
of
detail,
but
I'll
talk
to
them
and
either
report
back
next
month
or
maybe
have
one
of
them
here
to
to
present
on
what
they
you
know
generally
do
and
generally
see,
and
then
at
that
point
we
can
talk
about
if
there
needs
to
be
a
policy
around
this.
A
And
I
have
mentioned
this
a
little
bit
from
from
time
to
time,
but
not
in
a
lot
of
detail.
So
the
idea
kind
of
came
up,
I
think
around
the
fall,
and
we
heard
a
lot
of
radio
talk
about
turkey,
Thon's
and
things
like
that.
Uh-Huh
about
doing
a
roof
Athan
where
we
we,
the
applications
were
receiving
from
h,
AP.
You
know
almost
everybody
needs
at
least
roof
repair,
if
not
a
brand
new
roof.
It
is
a
major
issue
in
the
city.
A
A
So
what
I'd
like
to
talk
about
today
is
the
potential
of
the
advisory
board
agreeing
to
set
aside
two
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
up
to
2018
funding
for
this
endeavor
to
basically
do
a
pilot
round.
The
plan
is
2x2.
You
are
a
board
for
approval
next
week
to
issue
an
RFP
for
a
construction
manager
to
bring
on
the
subs
and
the
labor
needed
to
do
25
homes
in
a
two-week
period.
A
So
I
would
suspect
that
large
construction
companies
and
or
maybe
corporations
that
work
with
a
lot
of
large
construction
companies
would
be
the
respondents
to
that
and
the
URA
and
inspection
staff
engineering
construction
department
will
obviously
be
involved.
But
but
we
felt
like
the
coordination
was
something
that
we
needed
to
kind
of
put
in
the
hands
of
a
construction
manager,
so
so
that
is
what,
if
everyone
thinks
this
is
a
good
idea.
That
is
what
will
be
going
to
the
you
are
a
board
next
week,
so
I'm
opening
this
up
for
discussion.
F
A
So
the
2018
has
two
million
and
then
another
two
million
and
some
change
in
2019
and
later
on.
We
have
a
slide
showing
the
commitments
we
we
have
started
to
receive
applications
for
the
program
we
have
written
like
letters
to
to
homeowners
and
program
administrators
for
I,
think
eight
houses,
the
rest
we've
gotten
between
15
and
20
applications.
The
rest
of
them
have
some
some
outstanding
tax
issues
applications
that
we
have
in
hand.
So
there
are
eight
that
are
in
the
process.
A
You
know,
assuming
that
there
are
30,000
a
piece:
that's
240,000,
but
we'll
be
working
our
way
through
the
money.
We
have
another
two
million,
of
course
in
the
2019
funds,
but
there
seems
like
there
is
availability
to
set
it
aside.
250
when
we
made
the
service
contract
awards
that
our
program,
administrators
I,
think
there
was
about
five
hundred
plus
another
hundred
like
about
six
hundred
thousand.
That
was
not
committed
to
them
and
we
will
be
using
some
of
that
money
for
folks
going
through
other.
A
You
are
a
home
improvement
programs
that
already
have
a
contractor
that
that
need
to
do
programs,
but
the
rest
of
it
will.
Is
you
know
still
available
so
we
feel
like
there
is
250
thousand
available
to
set
aside
for
the
refund
and
it
fits
it
fits
in
the
spirit
of
the
guidelines
of
the
H
AP
program,
with
the
exception
that
H
ap
does
go
up
to
a
$5,000
grant.
The
ruse
may
be
a
little
bit
more
than
that.
A
P
This
is
a
very
important
program.
I
know
in
Homewood,
a
lot
of
our
residents
are
leaving
their
homes
because
of
ruse
and
I
know
that
we,
through
our
funds,
can't
do
but
one
or
two
a
year.
So
this
this
would
be
something
great
for
for
for
residents
and
I
know.
Homer
residents
definitely
would,
but
we
were
try
to
use
these
services,
but
I
think
it
would.
C
So
I
want
to
echo
Jerome's
comments
about
the
importance
of
this.
You
know
with
really
without
it
there's
just
many
more
issues
that
could
be
diverted,
but
my
question
is
I'm
not
sure
about
the
$10,000
limit.
Some
roofs
may
cost
more
than
that,
but
my
question
is:
if
someone
needed
other
repairs,
could
they
still
apply?
You
know
for
the
I.
A
J
A
Mean
for
this
it
would
be
just
you
know,
fourth
on
for
the
two
week
Wendell,
but
that
that
does
hit
on
another
good
reason.
For
us
to
do.
It
is
to
bring
more
people
in
the
fold
of
this
program
and
and
the
URA
programs,
and-
and
you
know
to
know
about
this-
just
from
you
know,
if
they're
gonna
bring
on
to
do
twenty
five
routes
in
two
weeks,
they're
gonna
need
to
bring
on
a
lot
of
small
roofing
companies,
so
it'll
just
bring
more
and
more
people
into
you
know.
I
A
N
A
N
I
I
N
M
Of
our
unions,
a
lot
of
think
you
get
a
lot
of
donations
and
people
who
want
to
support
it,
but
I
think
we
need
to
make
sure
that
it's
under,
like
it's
sort
of
like
hafiz
first
in
and
we
need
to
make
that
clarion
call
to
ask
others
to
come
to
the
table.
I,
don't
think
we're
doing
enough
of
that.
I
think.
M
N
Administrative
costs
and
things
like
that
people
see
it's
actually
having
a
benefit
to
the
residents,
then
I
think
people
are
going
to
want
to
pitch
in
if
they
see
it's
just
helping
us.
You
know
how
are
another
person
do
a
couple
of
things
here
and
internally
and
not
a
real
benefit
to
the
people
and
nobody's
gonna
want
to
fund
it,
but
I
think
once
we
show
some
successes
and
how
people
are
able
to
stay
in
their
homes.
I
think
that
to
me
is
the
most
important
part
huge.
M
A
J
Just
one
quick
point
to
the
admin
conversation
so
anytime,
we're
gonna
grow.
Something
like
this.
There
is
gonna,
be
an
admin
burden
that
we
have
to
be,
mindful
of
so
just
my
point
being
when
people
want
to
to
jump
into
an
effort
like
this.
That's
amazing,
but
we
also.
There
also
has
to
be
some
kind
of
infrastructure
to
make
choices
about
that.
So
is
the
product.
Something
that
can
be
used
is
the
vendor.
J
We
do
want
to
keep
all
of
that
I'm
in
conversation
very
low,
but
also
if,
if
we
are
going
to
start
fundraising,
whether
that's
in
kind
or
its
actual
dollars,
there
is
gonna
have
to
be
some
level
of
infrastructure
related
to
that.
So
just
so
that
doesn't
go
missing,
because
there
could
be
a
variety
of
challenges.
What
if
somebody
wants
to
donate
substandard
product?
You
know
all
of
those
things.
A
N
I
agree
that
there's
always
a
cost
associated
with
running
an
additional
programming,
but
I
think
that
we
have
to
make
sure
that
we're
watching
those
dollars
and
the
dead
to
the
rate
of
benefit
is
to
the
residents.
Not
to
you
know
a
new
position
and
I'd
even
be
even
happier
if
that
person
actually
came
from
Pittsburgh
and
lived
in
Pittsburgh
that
we
were
employing
and.
C
J
J
N
N
I,
just
can
I
just
request
that
maybe
this
be
an
opportunity
that
we
engage
people
from
outside
of
this
committee,
that
maybe
we
get
people
with
actually
expertise
in
this
area
and
some
some
passion
and
knowledge
in
this
area.
It
doesn't
necessarily
have
to
may
be
a
chair
from
this
board,
but
I
think
it
could
be.
Anyone
could
serve
on
it.
H
I
H
H
B
K
A
On
comments,
okay,
moving
on,
thank
you
all
I
think
there
were.
There
were
at
least
four
of
you
up
in
Brighton
Heights
on
on
Friday.
We
had
kind
of
a
last-minute
press
conference,
so
I
appreciate
everyone
that
was
there,
but
this
is
photos
from
it.
We
had
Natalie
Porco
was
purchaser
as
part
of
the
down
payment.
Closing
costs
were
now
up
to
about
20
homes
via
down
payment,
closing
cause.
A
She
bought
a
house
in
Brighton
Heights,
and
she
got
a
down
payment
from
us
and
agreed
to
do
this
press
conference
and
it
was
a
beautiful
day
on
Friday,
and
it
was
just
a
great
time
to
be
up
there
with
her
with
her
and
celebrate
and
she
was.
She
was
amazingly
thankful
and
just
super
happy
with
her
new
house
thanks
everyone
that
was
there.
H
H
I
I
think
these
these
individual
stories
are
so
important
as
much
as
we
talk
about
why
affordable
housing
is
important
and
this
fund
is
important.
Having
someone
get
up
there
and
say
how
this
changed
their
life,
the
best
thing
we
can
do
to
raise
awareness
of
this
fund
and
get
people
to
understand
why
it's
important.
So
the
more
kinds
of
things
like
this
that
we
can
do
I'm
totally
in
favor
of
that.
A
A
You
know
we
are
down
five
seats
right
now
on
the
advisory
board,
so
working
with
the
mayor's
office,
the
mayor's
office
is
making
those
nominations
and
then
they
need
to
go
to
City
Council.
So,
given
that
process
I
don't
know
I'm
hoping
we
might
have
some
new
members
next
month
in
July,
but
I,
don't
know
that
for
a
fact
it
could
be
not
until
August.
So
what
the
advisory
board
Governance
Committee
talked
about
yesterday
was
a
process
to
make
sure
we
stay
on
the
schedule.
G
A
G
J
J
And
I
think
that
he
was
really
good
about
understood.
The
regs
really
well
understood
the
system
really
well
and
and
I
feel
a
loss
of
him
not
being
part
of
the
community
anymore
and
I'm,
not
saying
that
Kyle
has
to
has
to
remain,
but
I
think
that
it's
important
we,
we
gained
a
lot
from
his
presence,
and
so
it
just
might
be
something
that's
helpful
to
the
mayor
when
there's
decision
making
and
hopeful
to
council
when
there's
decision
making
about
expertise
at
the
table,
what
we
might
be
missing
he's
brought
a
lot
to
the
conversation.
S
H
A
A
A
Just
a
super
super
fast
update
for
the
homeowner
Assistance
Program.
We
do
need
appraisals,
that's
a
requirement
of
the
program.
We
issued
an
RFQ
to
get
a
slate.
We
only
received
one
response
that
person
will
be
going
to
the
you
are
a
board
next
week,
but
we're
going
to
just
put
the
same
RFQ
on
our
website
on
a
rolling
basis.
So
appraisers
are
welcome
to
apply
at
any
time
and
be
added
to
the
slate,
because
we
are,
you
know,
going
to
need
to
do
about
a
hundred
appraisals
a
year
for
the
homeowner
Assistance
Program.
A
And
then
we
also
did
a
sub,
then
we
we
also
did
a
request
of
qualifications
for
printing
services.
We
received
they're
listed
there
and
we
will
be
taking
those
to
the.
You
are
a
board
for
a
slate
of
printing
services.
We
are
working
with
wall-to-wall
on
the
annual
report
right
now.
A
draft
is
almost
ready.
I
will
circulate
that
to
the
Weisse
report
over
the
next
week
or
two,
and
we
will
need
to
then
use.
One
of
those
two
firms
to
print
are.
A
A
A
K
For
the
past
couple
months,
we've
been
developing
some
of
the
internal
processes
for
the
URA
to
administer
the
housing
stabilization
program.
As
you
know,
this
is
the
most
different
program
from
sort
of
the
operations
and
administrative
processes
at
the
ura.
So
far,
so
I
can
just
start
with
reviewing
what
the
goals
are
and
were
for
us
in
terms
of
developing
these
processes.
K
First
and
foremost,
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we're
helping
the
households
that
are
applying
as
quickly
as
possible
because
in
most
cases,
they're
going
to
be
in
an
emergency
situation,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
they
are
set
up
for
success,
sort
of
in
alignment
with
that
stabilization
component
of
the
program.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
the
housing
is
safe
and
secure.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
plugging
into
existing
social
service
networks,
especially
given
that
the
URA
itself
is
not
a
social
service
provider.
K
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
supporting
the
service
providers
and
and
sort
of
minimizing
the
administrative
burden
on
them
as
much
as
we
can
and
then.
Lastly,
we
need
to
set
ourselves
up
to
evaluate
sort
of
the
outcomes
and
impacts
of
the
program
once
you
know,
we've
gotten
through
the
allocation,
near-end
sort
on
an
ongoing
basis
to
make
sure
that
we're
on
base
with
meeting
our
goals
so
the
way
that
the
sort
of
money
has
to
flow
in
the
and
the
program
has
to
be
administered
per
the
program.
K
Guidelines
are,
after
that,
first,
contact
with
the
applicant
we
need
to
have
two
things
happen.
One
is
to
determine
the
eligibility
and
sort
of
verify
the
components
of
that
the
other
one
is
an
inspection
of
the
sort
of
habitability
standards
of
the
unit.
One
of
the
things
that
we
learn
from
the
service
providers
is
that
they
would
really
like
it
if
we
could
start
the
inspection
process
while
they're.
K
You
know
working
on
this
documentation,
especially
given
that
it
can
take
people
a
few
days
to
get
their
stuff
together,
we're
working
on
figuring
out
sort
of
some
contingency
contingencies
for
the
documentation
requirement.
As
we
know,
not
everybody
has
all
their
pay
stubs
together
and
things
like
that
in
an
emergent
situation.
So
so
what
we're
thinking
right
now
is
that
we'll
start
those
two
processes.
K
So
in
order
to
get
there,
we've
done
a
few
things.
One
is
we
met
with
all
of
the
service
providers,
which
was
extremely
helpful
for
us
for
two
reasons.
One
is
that
we
were
able
to
lean
on
their
expertise.
The
other
is
that
we
were
able
to
see.
Ok,
what's
everybody
doing
now,
what
are
they
doing,
that
sort
of
common
among
the
especially
the
for
direct
service
providers?
K
And
how
can
we
sort
of
mimic
that
as
much
as
we
can
so
that,
like
a
smooth
transition
and
we're
not
giving
them
too
many
extra
things
or
your
things
that
there's
gonna
be
a
steep
learning
curve
on?
We
also
worked.
We've
been
working
with
DHS
just
on
the
reporting
side
of
things,
even
though
we're
not
sort
of
required
by
the
same
funding
sources
to
be
collecting
the
same
information
DHS,
as
you
know,
is
the
national
leader
and
information
management,
and
also
very
well
plugged
into
similar
programs.
K
In
addition
to
going
through
with
the
service
providers,
we've
looked
at
a
couple
of
national
models
on
you
know
some
of
that
intake
process
and
the
information
that
they're
requesting
one
thing
that's
not
on
here
is:
we've
also
been
working
internally
on
some
legal
questions
about
what
kind
of
information
we
can
collect,
making
sure
that
we're
not
collecting
anything
that
one
is.
It
is
sort
of
a
privacy.
K
You
know
invasion,
or
even
just
say
you
know,
vulnerability
in
terms
of
what
kind
of
information
we're
storing
making
sure
that
that's
secure
and
the
other
one
is
just
like
you
know.
How
can
we
balance
following
the
lead
of
you,
know,
HUDs
HUDs
requirements
and
things
like
that
and
making
sure
that
we
are
giving
a
little
bit
more
wiggle
room
in
things
like
the
habitability
standards,
so
where
we
at
right
now,
we've
developed
a
few
few
tools.
One
is,
of
course
the
intake
forms.
K
Second,
is
some
process
management
that
we're
planning
on
using
an
online
tool
to
do
so,
smoothing
out
as
as
much
as
we
can
the
process
between
okay,
you
have
a
client
coming
in
to
the
service
provider.
We
get
a
notification,
an
automated
notification,
that
okay,
we
have
this
client
and
we
need
to
get
that
inspection
going.
We
need
to
get
it
scheduled.
We
need
to
set
up
the
inspector
so
that
they
can
just
quickly
on
their
phone
say
yes
or
no.
This
this
passes
on
these
factors.
K
We've
sort
of
gotten
into
the
internal
documentation
stuff
so
that
we
can
report
back
to
you
and
finally,
we've
been
working
on
those
outcome
and
impact
analysis
tools.
So
where
we're
going
next
is,
we
are
first
and
foremost
getting
the
service
providers
in
their
contract.
We
will
be
finalizing
Zoar
those
process,
management
systems
that
I
just
went
over.
We
will
be
providing
some
training
to
the
service
providers
and
sort
of
sitting
down
making
sure
that
everything
makes
sense
on
both
sides
of
the
table.
K
A
So
we
just
want
to
give
you
an
update,
so
everyone
knows:
what's
going
on,
I
mean
Jamie
done
an
amazing
job
and
Eric
sitting
back.
There
he's
our
intern
for
the
summer.
The
two
of
them
together
have
put
in
lots
of
time,
and
they
have
a
basically
a
system,
a
SharePoint
system,
pretty
much
established
that
that
providers
will
be
using
so
I
mean
we're
gonna
be
up
and
running
really
soon.
A
A
A
This
is
just
sort
of
some
of
the
series
we're
pointing
out
the
Carnegie
Library
series
is
going
on
through
the
month
of
June
six
Carnegie
libraries
that
will
be
at
the
Pittsburgh
Public
Schools.
Several
of
us
met
with
the
early
childhood
programs
through
the
month
of
May
Evan
Jaime,
patina
and
I
were
all
at
different
early
childhood
programs
with
Pittsburgh
Public
Schools,
which
was
really
awesome
because
it's
sitting,
you
know
people
with
young
children,
getting
them
early
thinking
about
home
ownership
and
down
payment,
closing
cost
assistance,
so
that
was
great.
A
The
farmers
markets
the
summer
you'll
see
you'll,
see
folks
there
from
HOF
and
also
other
ura
departments
at
the
farmers,
markets
and
and
neighbor
works
as
well.
We've
been
doing
the
every
other
week,
Saturday
homeownership
training
classes
there
as
well.
So
and
then
those
are
some
community
days
that
Bettina
and
others
are
going
to
be
at
the
summer
as
well.
A
Yeah,
it's
a
good
question.
We
worked
with
a
lot
of
CDC's.
We
work
with
Vicksburg
United.
We,
the
URA,
has
media
social
media.
We
have
a
social
media
department
that
works
well
with
patina
and
on
our
social
media
and
I
know.
Vitina
has
been
working
with
the
mayor's
community
outreach
department
as
well
and
does
a
lot
of
blogs
with
them
and
Facebook
listings.
A
This
is
just
an
update
on
the
RFQ
for
community
outreach.
We
did
rfqs
for
appraisals
and
marketing
first
because
they
were
time
sensitive,
we're
gonna,
be
working
on
the
RFQ
for
community
outreach
this
month
and
we'll
issue
it
and
get
a
slate
together
of
organizations
to
do
community
outreach
and
the
annual
report
update
I
mentioned
it
already.
You
know
we're
aiming
for
the
end
of
June.
All
the
content
went
to
wall
to
wall
earlier
this
week,
so
we
will
have
a
draft
over
the
next
week.
So
please
watch
your
emails
from
me.
A
I'll
be
sending
a
Draft
out
of
the
annual
report
and
then
this
is
just
showing
commitments
and
closings
so
you'll
see
there's
a
new
color
of
purple
on
the
map
this
month,
which
is
the
homeowner
Assistance
Program
commitments
that
that
we
have
out
there
right
now
and
you
can
see
that
the
the
red
is
the
down
payment
closings
and
we're
up
to
about
20
of
those
and
and
they're.
Just
really.
It's
really
awesome
to
see
they're
just
starting
to
fly,
sharing
two
hands
me
about
four
or
five
files
a
week
now.
A
T
S
Let's
see
so
I
know
what
the
the
things
that
we're
hearing
from
the
public
is
really
geared
towards
the
rinoa
sisters
coming
out
as
well
as
we're
hearing
a
lot
about
tako
title.
So
I
was
wondering
if
there's
any
timeline
for
when
neighborhood
legal
services
will
be
coming
out
with
that
we're
also
Pittsburgh
United
ourselves.
My
table
is
knowing
community
meetings
and
a
big
housing
campus.
So
you'll
see
this
graphic
around
the
city
and
I
know
I
will
be
talking
to
so
you
sent
me
something
and
it'll
cost
about.
S
S
J
S
We'll
take
we'll
take
everything
we
will,
where
our
cameras
team
is
actually
five
folks
that
we've
been
working
with
for
a
while.
Some
of
them
are
from
beaver,
and
some
most
of
them
are
from
here
and
they'll
really
be
getting
like
mentor
and
really
learning
about
affordable
housing,
so
it'll
be
pretty
cool.
T
S
Also
meters-
and
we
have
some
people
from
our
table
that
are
going
to
come
out
and
walk
around
with
them
into
the
communities,
so
we'll
really
be
focusing
on
low
income,
renters
and
low
income
homeowners
to
consume
the
homeowner
Assistance
Program
in
the
housing
stabilization
program.
So
that's
what
we'll
be
doing.
S
We're
also
thinking
about
around
the
housing
stabilization
program
is
making
sure
that
there
are
less
barriers
for
folks
I.
Think
that's
always
going
to
be
our
thing,
so,
just
as
it
rolls
out
making
sure
that,
like
the
application
process
and
those
sorts
of
things
are
minimal
for
folks
we're,
we
get
calls
every
day,
I'm
getting
calls
from
people
from
as
far
as
McKeesport
and
East
Pittsburgh,
even
like
other
places
like
Beaver
Aliquippa,
where
people
need
help.
S
So
people
are
really
beating
down
the
door
around
that
one
and
also
I
know
miss
Phyllis
before
came
the
City
Council,
it
talked
about
her
home
on
the
hill.
That's
also
I
know.
This
Phyllis
is
also
that's
also
a
tangle
title
issue
that
she
had
to
leave
her
home
because
she
was
able
to
get
access
to
rehab
because
of
that
issue.
So.
H
A
A
Whoa
but
I
would
say,
I
think
that
contract
is
a
little
bit
clearer
to
us.
We
learned
a
lot
a
lot
of
things
we
went
talking
to
them
and
just
about
like
Derek
I,
think
you
brought
up
a
month
ago
about
the
inheritance
tax
I
mean
these
types
of
things
like
we
just
need
to
think
through
and
and
that's
what
sort
of
delaying
their
contract
a
little
bit,
but
I
anticipate
getting
them
under
contract
for
tangle
title
pretty
quickly.
A
The
eviction
prevention
really
spinning
I
think
when
we
left
and
realizing
the
connections,
so
they
can
provide
legal
eviction
assistance
to
somebody.
But
if
they're
in
the
eviction
process,
they're
probably
already
behind
on
rent
a
couple
months
and
then
they
might
need
additional
assistance,
you
know
right
now.
Our
program
is
capped
at
3000.
We're
just
trying
to
figure
out
what
those
linkages
are.
We're
trying
to
figure
out.
Should
social
service
providers
be
the
ones
that
then
recommend
them
to
to
neighborhood
legal
services?
A
You
know
it's
like
we're
just
trying
to
figure
out
what,
like
you
know,
a
nice
chart
that
Jamie
continued
showing
how
this
is
going
to
hello.
So
I
will
say:
I
think
the
eviction
prevention
services
might
be
a
little
bit
behind
getting
the
rest
of
the
housing
stabilization
program
up
and
running,
we're
probably
going
to
need
an
extra
month
or
so
on,
because
I
think
it's
a
little
trickier.
This.
N
B
S
N
Only
to
that
family,
but
to
that
community
is
really
critical
and
I
mentioned
this.
Before
that
I
talked
with
Paul
kitnik
who
lives
in
Mount
Washington,
you
may
know
Paul,
and
he
worked
with
he's
a
professor
at
Duquesne,
University
or
something
I
mean.
Does
a
lot
of
stuff
with
different
was
on
the
city
planning
and
some
other
things
really
a
really
credible
person.
But
he
approached
me
and
I
talked
to
the
mayor's
office
about
this,
that
the
universities,
Duquesne
and
Pitt
and
I
think
he
said.
B
N
Tango
titles
and
so
I
don't
and
for
free,
so
I,
don't
know
why
we're
not
approaching
him
and
talking
to
him
about
this
I
know
the
administration,
when
I
had
a
meeting
with
them
said
that
they
would.
They
would
get
in
touch
with
him
to
see
what
that
was
about.
What's
his
name,
I,
don't
know
if
I
should
say
it
on
TV,
but.
T
S
N
B
N
People
work
on
this
yeah.
Maybe
can
we
have
a
group
of
people
work
on
this
before
next
month?
So
we
have
I,
think
somebody
I
think
we
need
to
talk
to
Paul
get
Nick.
We
need
to
talk
to
Ricky
King.
We
need
to
talk
to
people
in
the
audience
that
come
in
every
week
to
talk
about
every
month
to
talk
about,
I,
think
get
it
grouped
together
to
just
meet
with
some
people
to
get
some
solutions
before
I
mean
a
month
is
a
long
time
if
you're
waiting
for
you
to
sit
for
help
I'm.
N
T
S
Update
I
know
we
talked
about
having
nor
elect
ash
and
Michael
Anderson
come
so
we
did
have
a
call
with
Jessica
yesterday
and
we're
leaning
more
toward
September.
So
you
may
get
an
extensive
doodle
poll.
So
just
we
were
hoping
to
have
maybe
some
folks
from
the
mayor's
office,
the
advisory
board
and
you're
a
bore
to
be
able
to
talk
about
best
practices
together,
and
we
had
a
really
really
good
conversation
about
that
yesterday.
So
we're
leaning
towards
more
like
September,
maybe
mid-september.
S
Michael
Anderson
he's
from
the
center
from
Center
for
Community
Change
and
he
does
a
national
housing
trust
fund
department
and
he
was
telling
us
yesterday
that
at
least
15
/,
15
cities
and
municipalities
have
really
talked
about
her.
How
wonderful
our
fund
is,
how
equitable
it
is,
how
great
the
advisory
board
is,
and
he
was
also
really
impress
at
how
advocates
and
government
or
any
advisory
board
are
really
working
together
to
get
things
done
here.
S
So
it
was
a
good
conversation,
and
so
when
we
bringing
them
here
to
have
this
session
and
sort
of
talk
about
Philadelphia
some
of
the
things
they
went
through
some
things.
Hopefully
we
can
prevent
here
and
Mike
will
be
talking
about
of
National,
Trust
Funds
and
those
sorts
of
things
best
practices,
so
I
think
it'll
be
a
really
good
learning
session
for
everyone.
So
just
the
doodle
poll
you'll
see
it.
It
might
look
intimidating,
but
it'll
be
good.
R
Collaborations
of
partnerships
that
received
the
Housing,
Opportunity
Fund
I
think
there
are
a
couple
things
that
I
see
that
could
be
tweaked.
That
would
be
very
helpful
for
one
thing:
Hill
district
is
a
CDC
they're.
Also
a
minority
slash
women,
business
enterprise
core
is
neither
probably
should
be,
and
maybe
in
the
future.
My
point
is:
they
knew
about
all
of
this
from
the
beginning.
R
I
knew
nothing
except
Trek
wanted
to
partner
with
a
non-profit
in
order
to
be
eligible
for
this,
or
is
a
neighborhood
non-profit
organization
right
now
it
would
be
helpful
if,
in
the
future,
a
wave
would
be
made
that
all
parties
are
privy
to
the
numbers.
The
figures,
the
dollars
in
the
sense
I
didn't
know
until
I
stood
in
front
of
everybody
last
month
and
found
out
exactly
how
much
money
was
involved.
R
R
R
R
So
my
question
is:
if
you
already
have
someone
who
does
that,
why
do
you
need
an
organization
to
do
it?
I
mean
we're
extra
I
would
say,
make
sure
that
the
nonprofit
that
is
partnering
is
going
to
be
an
equal
partner,
a
contributing
partner,
make
sure
it's
not
just
the
name
on
a
piece
of
paper,
so
they
can
get
some
extra
money.
That's
all
I'm
open
to
questions
comments.
Criticism
is
anything
well.
N
H
Asked
about
why
would
you
partner
with
a
community
group?
If
you
have
a
section
three
person
I
think
probably
the
community
group
is
what
makes
section
could
make
sections
are
effective?
You
have
connections
with
residents
in
the
community.
That's
the
whole
point.
I
mean
you're.
Gonna
have
the
best
director
of
a
programming
one,
but
if
they
can't
reach
the
neighbors.
R
Already
been
there
done,
that
am
I
really
needed.
I
mean
I,
come
in
here
and
work
to
work.
Always
that's
core
I
got
a
team
ready
to
work
behind
me,
but
they're
not
gonna
work
for
free
the
only
one
in
this
project.
That's
not
going
to
get
a
dime
out
of
this
is
me
as
a
board
officer.
Our
bylaws
stipulate
I,
don't
get
paid
for
this
I
do
this
because
it's
needed
and
I
will
do
it
again
if
needed,
but
I
don't
want
my
organization
to
suffer
because
of
my
my
activism.
My
willingness
to
serve.
