Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
B
A
That's
okay,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
the
record
taught
you.
Even
if
you
know
nobody
heard
you
I.
A
That's
okay,
Derek
Tillman,
Adrian,
monaha,
Megan,
Winters,.
A
And
that
would
be
Joanna
for
the
record.
Okay,
so
I
don't
believe
we
have
any
public
comment.
A
C
A
A
Okay,
because
everyone
had
the
opportunity
to
review
our
minutes
from
the
June
meeting.
A
Any
posts,
any
abstentions,
okay
and
now
to
public
comment
where
we
have
no
public
commenters
and
so
we'll
move
on
to
the
next
agenda
item,
which
is
a
presentation
on
the
legal
assistance
program
and
an
update
as
to
where
we
are
with
that
program.
G
Yeah
so
I'm
going
to
stop
sharing
my
screen
and
I'm
going
to
let
Abby
if
she
is
on,
she
is
I'm
gonna.
Let
her
share
her
screen.
I
B
I
Okay,
thank
you
guys
for
having
us
here
today.
I'm
here
with
my
colleague,
Erin
Erb
executive
director
from
just
mediation.
Pittsburgh
I
should
also
introduce
myself.
My
name
is
Abby
Ray
Lacombe
I'm,
the
executive
director
of
rent
help
PGH,
and
we
are
also
joined
by
our
colleague,
Swain
Uber
from
the
community
Justice
project
and
I
believe
Christine.
I
Give
you
a
brief
on
the
current
trajectory
of
evictions
in
Allegheny
County
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
and
then
present
to
you
expanded
version
of
the
program
that
we
are
very
very
excited
to
get
rolled
out
in
the
coming
months,
and
with
that
Aaron.
Do
you
want
to
hop
in.
K
Yeah
yeah
happy
to
thanks
for
the
introduction
wa
I
am
taking
advantage
of
perhaps
the
most
stable
connection
of
the
the
four
of
us
this
morning,
so
I'll
be
on
screen,
but
other
folks
might
not
be
able
to
I
apologize
for
that,
but
I'll
run
through
the
numbers:
real
quick
of
the
results
of
our
collaborative
partnership
between
these
legal
aid
organizations,
our
organization
JMP
with
mediation
work,
as
well
as
the
resource
navigation
efforts
from
repel
PGH
and
the
Pittsburgh
Hispanic
Development
Corporation,
because
what
we've?
K
So
what
I'll
share
with
this
first
slide
that
Ivy
Ray
is
sharing
is
just
the
total
raw
numbers
that
we
have
of
client
connections
through
the
first
year
of
collaboration
together.
Now
you
can
see
we
have
a
total
of
647
client
connection
points.
K
That
is
the
result
of
a
lot
of
collaborative
effort
to
be
able
to
make
sure
that
if
a
client
who
is
seeking
help
with
an
issue
with
their
landlord
or
with
their
rental
property,
can
come
to
any
of
our
organizations
and
not
simply
be
turned
away,
because
we
can't
serve
their
exact
need,
but
actually
get
referred
to
the
appropriate
spot
so
Abby.
K
If
you
can
go
to
the
next
slide,
this
shows
our
concept
of
no
wrong
door
at
work,
no
wrong
door
where,
if
a
client
comes
to
JMP
and
what
they
really
need
is
legal
advice,
because
their
case
is
already
before
a
judge
or
past
the
point
of
mediation
and
that
would
not
serve
them
best.
At
this
point,
JMP
then,
can
refer
cases
along
to
Neighborhood,
Legal
Services
for
legal
advice,
and
so
these
numbers
kind
of
reflect
those
those
cross
Partnerships
where
we're
not
hoarding
clients
for
one
organization
or
the
other.
K
So
you
can
see
the
columns
represent
the
numbers
of
clients
at
each
organization,
but
the
rows
represent.
Who
is
making
referrals
to
that
organization
of
the
column?
So
for
jnp,
my
Organization,
for
example,
you
can
see
that
rent
Health
referred
82
cases
our
way,
the
majority
of
our
cases
were
people
who
came
to
jnp
looking
for
mediation
and
indeed
found
it
here,
but
that
we
have
kind
of
a
cross-pollination
of
referral
source
here.
K
One
thing
I'll
also
highlight
with
this
again
because
I
do
represent
JP
is
how
useful
this
collaboration
has
been
for
mediation,
participants,
tenants
who
do
sit
down
and
talk
with
their
landlords
with
a
third-party
media
at
a
present.
What
we
have
really
benefited
from
with
this
funding
and
with
this
partnership
has
been
giving
tenants
more
robust
legal
aid,
even
if
they
are
going
to
mediation
and
giving
them
much
more
robust
resource
navigation.
K
If
they're
going
to
mediation
so
that,
in
partnership
with
the
Neighborhood
Legal
Services,
we
can
have
mediation,
tenants,
getting
legal
advice
prior
to
going
into
their
mediation.
So
they're
not
going
in
we're
not
making
the
assumption
that
tenants
have
a
full
understanding
of
the
range
of
rights
that
they
have
and
the
opportunities
that
have
to
be
able
to
defend
themselves
and
actually
have
a
conversation
with
their
landlord.
K
That
includes
their
perspective
on
their
own
rights,
but
we
have
NLS
giving
some
support
to
the
tenants
to
be
able
to
mediate
in
the
best
ways
possible
so
that
partnership
at
NLS
has
been
hugely
valuable
and
I.
Don't
think
would
have
happened
without
this
with
this
out
of
this
funding
in
the
standpoint
without
the
lapsee
program.
K
So
this
this
partnership-
and
this
slide
specifically
that
shows
the
numbers
that
get
referred
from
organization
to
organization-
reflects
a
lot
of
that
partnership.
The
ways
that
we've
really
relied
on
each
other
to
be
able
to
provide
a
comprehensive
eviction
prevention
strategy
across
the
city
I
am
going
to
with
these
numbers,
then
pass
it
on
to
slide
three
for
Abby
Ray
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
how
how
the
eviction
crisis
is
not
one
that
has
simply
gone
away,
but
it's
very
much
still
with
us.
I
Thanks
Aaron
and
I
apologize
to
everyone
right
now,
right
out,
the
gates.
I
know
that
this
graph
is
a
lot
to
absorb,
especially
if
it
is
the
first
time
you're
seeing
this.
I
I
The
line
that
we
want
to
be
paying
attention
to
right
here
is
this
lighter
blue,
more
like
a
sky
blue,
rather
than
this
royal
blue
line
here
with
the
green
raw
data
popping
on
top
of
it
here
and
the
second
line
that
I
would
like
you
to
draw
your
attention
to
is
the
bright
pink
line
above
it
and
then
what
we
are
comparing
these
two
is
this
black
line
toward
the
top,
so
this
is
our
rate
of
eviction
filings
in
Allegheny
County
in
2022.
I
If
you
start
at
the
left
and
move
right,
I
mean
you
can
see,
we
started
out
with
a
bit
of
a
peak
and
then
slumped
back
down
again.
This
slump
in
April
happened
due
to
a
lot
of
really
effective
Communications
from
this
collaboration
that
you
all
are
funding,
as
well
as
action,
housing
and
DHS
with
the
courts
to
ensure
that
the
magisterial
district
judges
understood
the
e-wrap,
which
is
the
emergency
rental
assistance
program,
is
still
operating
and
still
paying
people's
applications.
I
There
had
been
some
confusion
among
the
courts
toward
the
beginning
of
the
year
that
we
were
able
to
clarify
and
get
a
lot
of
continuations
while
erap
applications
were
being
processed.
I
The
key
thing
to
note
here
is
that
the
number
is
rising
and
it
is
also
artificially
low.
So
at
present,
the
housing
authorities-
hacp
Allegheny,
County,
Housing,
Authority
and
McKeesport
Housing
Authority-
are
not
filing
evictions
at
the
rate
that
they
did.
Pre-Pandemic,
acha
and
hacp
have
both
agreed
to
hold
off
until
all
e-wrap
funds
are
expended
and
are
in
particular
the
Allegheny
County
Housing
Authority
is
working
very
hard
to
collaborate
with
again
this
collaborative
and
just
mediation
Pittsburgh
to
refer
tenants
to
mediation
prior
to
eviction
filing
historically.
I
The
housing
authorities
in
Allegheny
County
represent
30
percent
of
eviction
filings.
This
is
true
both
county-wide
and
within
the
city
of
Pittsburgh.
So
if
we
had
our
traditional
filing
rates
by
the
housing
authorities,
we
would
be
operating
at
this
pink
line
toward
the
top.
I
At
present,
we
have
no
protections
for
households
experiencing
eviction.
At
times
we
have
had
moratoriums,
whether
it
be
at
the
CDC
or
president
judge
Clark
here
in
Allegheny
County
or
the
Commonwealth
of
Pennsylvania.
We've
all
experienced
rapidly
changing
policies,
but
we
are
back
to
square
one.
I
The
one
big
difference
now
and
again,
I
can't
give
you
guys
enough
accolades
for
this
is
that
in
Coven
and
in
particular,
since
Hof
and
the
Ura
funded
lap
T,
we
have
a
lot
of
really
effective
communication
and
collaboration
across
the
board
in
eviction
land.
So
we
work
closely
with
the
courts
closely
with
court
administrators
closely
with
our
Allied
organizations
across
the
county
to
ensure
that
we
are
all
collaborating
closely
to
get
tenants
connected
with
services
that
they
need
to
attempt
to
avoid
eviction.
I
If
anyone
is
interested
in
seeing
this
graph,
more
up,
close
I
would
be
glad
to
send
it
just
shoot
me.
A
message
in
the
chat.
I
know
that
it
is
a
lot
to
absorb
first
thing
in
the
day
and
then
Swain
how's.
Your
connection
right
now
are.
L
You
I,
we,
we
will
see
so
hey
everyone
good
morning,
Swain
Uber.
If
my
connection
is
bad
enough,
please
jump
in
and
just
cut
me
off,
and
one
of
my
very
gracious
colleagues
will
will
step
in
but
yeah
as
Abby
Ray
has
kind
of
outlined
and
and
as
you
all
know,
and
and
we
all
have
been
have
seen
over
the
past
couple
of
years,
evictions
and
and
the
need
to
prevent
evictions.
L
L
County
there's
been
a
lot
of
collaborative
work,
but
but
we
really
do
want
to
underline
that
the
URI,
what
the
Housing
Opportunity
Fund
in
particular
and-
and
you
are
a
staff
and
others
have
you
know
surprised-
maybe
not
surprised
me
but
thankfully
been
leading
the
way
and
putting
forth
this
kind
of
commitment
to
a
collaborative
project
to
serve
the
people
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
that
the
county
has,
you
know,
seen
and
begun
to
model
their
efforts
outside
of
the
city
on
as
well.
L
So
it's
again
because
of
what
you
all
have
done,
people
even
outside
of
the
city
are
going
to
be
getting
better
services.
So
we
just
want
to
thank
you
for
that.
As
you
know,
and
as
has
been
discussed
over
the
past
a
couple
of
months,
it
took
a
bit
of
time,
as
is
normal
for
any
sort
of
new
program,
a
bit
of
time
to
get
the
legal
assistance
program
for
tenants
up
and
running.
L
L
So
through
you
know,
during
covid
we've
one
of
the
silver
lines
of
all
of
this
Zoom
world
collaboration
has
been
being
able
to
build
deeper
connections
with
Partners
across
the
state
and
across
the
country,
and
we've
managed
to
do
that
with
kind
of
our
counterparts
in
Philadelphia
the
city
of
Philadelphia,
and
we
we
you
know
through
discussions
and
and
kind
of
strategic
planning
sessions
with
them.
L
We've
learned
a
lot
more
about
their
process
and
and
how
we
could
adapt
eviction
prevention
after
it's
here
to
Allegheny
County,
while
also
picking
some
of
the
best
parts
of
what
what
Philadelphia
eviction
defense
organizations
do.
L
So
in
Philly
they
kind
of
describe
it
largely
as
they
have
a
legal
helpline
which
is
mostly
what
it
sounds
like
people
can
call
and
be
connected
to
various
legal
services
not
entirely
different
than
Rental
Pittsburgh
and
what
they
and
phdc
do
as
well,
but
a
bit
more
legalistic
focused.
They
have
a
functioning
and
and
pretty
groundbreaking
eviction.
Diversion
program
which
Aaron
from
justification
can
can
speak
to
our
efforts
on
that
locally
as
well.
L
That's
that's
a
huge
critical
need
and
something
that
pairs
really
well
with
the
other,
the
other
facts
of
this.
They
have
a
right
to
council,
which
is
actually
being
piloted
right
now
and
two
zip
codes
there.
It's
it's
been
rolled
out,
sequentially,
which
you
know
is
mostly
funding
dependent.
L
You
know
right
is
one
thing,
but
but
funding
to
back
up
the
right
is
another,
and
Philadelphia
has
finally
put
a
significant
chunk
of
funding
behind
that.
So
that's
that's
exciting.
To
see
and
then
there's
something
called
the
lawyer
of
the
day
project,
actually,
could
you
go
back.
L
Not
a
problem
but
yeah.
Essentially,
this
is
kind
of
on
the
spot,
representation
and
connection
to
various
legal
resources.
So
a
lot
of
people
the
way-
and
maybe
it's
worth
actually
Abby
Ray
I'm
I'm
realizing.
We
should
probably
explain
a
bit
and
I
know:
we've
done
this
to
some
of
the
members
of
the
board
right
now,
but
what
rent
help
pgh's,
Outreach
and
eviction
rapid
response
program
does
right
now
to
get
information
and
connections
to
the
tenants,
because
then
that
kind
of
pairs
well
with
this
for.
I
Sure
and
collaboration
with
Anne
Wright
again
from
the
create
lab
of
CMU.
We
operate
in
air
table
which,
for
reference,
is
essentially
like
a
multi-dimensional
spreadsheet
database
and
built
a
scraper,
which
is
another
term
that
it's
essentially
an
automated
capturing
of
data
from
one
platform.
So
in
this
case
it
would
be
the
UJS
Portal
or
the
Department
of
Court
records.
I
I
Then,
in
collaboration
with
the
community
Justice
project
and
Court
administrators,
we
receive
the
complaint
forms
associated
with
eviction
filings,
which
gives
us
individuals
addresses
and
allows
us
to
send
mailers
to
write
around
85
percent
of
individuals
in
Allegheny
County,
with
an
eviction
filing
against
them
within
about
two
days
of
their
filing
date.
I
And
then
in
collaboration
with
the
County's
DHS.
We
have
access
to
various
platforms
for
phone
number,
lookup
and
so
about
five
days
before
anyone's
upcoming
hearing.
We
send
text
messages
and
in
my
dream
world
we
also
would
be
making
phone
calls,
but
we
are
not
staffed
to
be
able
to
do
that
level
of
Outreach
at
present
to
ensure
that
they
are
aware
that
their
hearing
is
coming
up
and
encourage
them
to
reach
back
out
to
us
to
get
connected
with
legal
assistants
and
various
types
of
financial
assistance.
I
My
cat
is
really
wound
up
and
so
I
apologize
that
he's
screaming
in
the
background,
but
yeah
so
all
week,
every
week
we
are
sending
hundreds
of
mailers
and
making
many
hundreds
of
text
messages
and
receiving
I
mean
our
help.
Desk
receives
close
to
100
120
phone
calls
and
text
messages
from
tenants
at
risk
up
or
currently
in
the
eviction
process
daily.
L
Thanks
yeah,
so
so
the
the
thought
here
and
again
what
Billy?
What
Philadelphia
does
is?
They
have
a
unified,
Municipal
Court,
where
all
eviction
proceedings
go
through
a
single
Court
which
in
Allegheny
County
and
the
City
of
Pittsburgh
we
do
not
have.
L
We
actually
have
one
of
the
most
split
and
fragmented
jurisdictions
in
in
the
nation.
In
the
county
alone,
we
have
46
magisterial
district
courts
in
the
city
we
have
12,
which
is
more
manageable,
thankfully,
but
still
quite
a
bit.
So
in
Philadelphia
they,
as
as
explained
on
the
slide,
there's
a
kind
of
a
team
of
there's
a
couple
of
teams
of
attorneys
paralegals
and
what
are
called
Court
resource
Navigators
and
they
essentially
cover
shifts
during
eviction
courts
days.
So
they
typically
handle
a.
L
An
afternoon
there's
kind
of
two
different
what
they
call
calls
each
day
so
there's
about
10
shifts
per
week
and
they
they
kind
of
provide
direct
representation
either
on
the
spots.
L
If
that's
that's
the
only
option
or
they
work
with
the
tenants
and
sometimes
the
landlord
to
try
to
continue
the
case,
so
they
can,
you
know
better,
prepare
for
it.
I
know
you
know
a
week
or
two
is
time
or
if
it's
someone
that
they've
already
been
connected
with
or
either
the
write,
the
council
pilot
program
for
the
two
zip
codes
that
they're
they're,
serving
or
or
just
another
person,
who's
tenant,
who's
called
into
the
legal
helpline
or
elsewhere
service.
They
can
provide
that
representation
there
as
well.
L
Our
thought
was
to
essentially
pilot
a
similar
program.
It's
a
bit
more
difficult
to
coordinate
in
some
ways,
because
we
do
not
have
that
single,
unified
building
the
Housing
Corps
downtown,
at
least
not
yet.
However,
again
within
the
city
of
Pittsburgh,
there's
only
12
Sports.
L
Many
of
them
only
have
eviction
cases
on
a
single
day
every
week.
So
that
would
mean
you
wouldn't
have
to
go
to
that
Beach
Court
every
day
you
can
go
on
different
days
generally.
L
Another
thing
you
know
throughout
our
engagement
with
with
many
of
the
magistrates,
especially
in
the
city,
who
tend
to
be
a
bit
more
agreeable
overall
they've,
been
pretty
willing
to
work
with
people
to
either
change
scheduling
or
adapt
as
needed.
So
so
the
thought
is
using
existing
funding.
We
are
going
to
be
expanding
to
cover
in
phase
one
an
additional
for
magisterial
district
courts.
L
Two
of
those
teams.
Two
two
attorneys,
would
lead
two
of
the
teams
and
that
they
would
be
housed
at
NLS,
Neighborhood,
Legal
Services.
The
other
two
would
be
ebony
law.
They
would
be
paired
with
a
support
staff
of
some
sort.
Well,
we're
not
sure
whether
it'll
be
a
paralegal
or
or
not.
L
It
probably
will
be,
maybe
a
more
administrative
role
and
then
resource
Navigators
be
able
to
kind
of
perform
all
of
the
tasks
and
services
that
Abby
Ray
has
described
at
rent,
Health
PGH
does
for
people
who
call
in
or
who
who
respond
via
text
by
doing
that
sort
of
work
in
person.
So
it's
being
there
it's
kind
of
another
layer
of
making
sure
people
don't
follow
through
the
cracks.
L
As
as
all
of
you
know,
people
in
crisis-
often
sometimes
you
know,
maybe
see
a
text
that
won't
don't
respond
or
but
think
you
know
get
mail,
don't
open.
It
I
know
I've
been
in
in
similar
situations
throughout
my
life
at
various
points,
so
this
is
just
another
step
at
which
we
can
get
people
to
get
them
stabilized
in
the
housing.
Keep
them
keep
them
from.
You
know
their
situation
worsening
and
getting
them
the
service
that
is
funded
by
the
city
already
so
yeah
that
we
can
switch
the
next
slide.
I
Yeah
I
do
the
one
thing
that
I
want
to
add
on
is
another
aspect
of
the
Outreach
that
rent
help
already
does,
though,
at
an
extremely
limited
capacity
is
in
court
presence
when
we
identify
Mass
evictions
or
chronic
evictions
by
specific
landlords.
We
try
to
have
one
of
our
resource
Navigators
attend
those
hearings
and
have
found
unbelievable
success
in
having
that
presence
in
the
courts.
I
For
instance,
we
attended
a
large
mass
eviction
Hearing
in
October
of
2021
and
acquired
about
31
clients,
of
whom,
through
just
our
collaboration
and
some
really
amazing
assistance
from
Neighborhood
Legal
Service,
as
we
were
able
to
get
more
than
two-thirds
of
those
hearings
dismissed
without
prejudice
over
the
course
of
many
months.
But
the
the
outcome
was
really
really
terrific.
I
L
We're
happy
to
share
this
slideshow
with
everyone
that
goes
into
a
bit
more
detail
about
kind
of
the
proposed
mechanics
of
how
that
systems
can
actually
work,
we're
actually
a
bit
more
hopeful
locally.
In
the
same
way,
Iberia
was
just
describing.
L
Judges
tend
to
be
more
willing
to
continue
and
and
I
think
we
can
get
a
general
agreement
that,
with
at
least
some
of
the
the
Majesty
old
District
judges
that
they'll
be
willing
to
postpone
cases
for
at
least
you
know
a
week
or
so
until
the
next
weeks
cases
are
up
for
people
from
you
know,
for
people
who
haven't
had
yet
time
to
engage
with
their
attorney
and
get
kind
of
prepared
for
their
case,
and
that
a
week
may
not
sound
like
a
lot
of
time,
but
that
can
make
a
huge
difference
in
terms
of
the
effectiveness
of
of
legal
counsel,
of
getting
a
rental
assistance.
L
Application
started,
and
sometimes
you
know
even
dispersed
in
that
short
period
of
time,
including
the
including
the
hofstp
program
and
and
other
similar
programs.
So
it's
it's
we're
really
excited
about
this.
Our
hope
is
if
we
go
to
the
next
slide,
unless
you
as
ourselves,
we
want
to
touch
on
here.
L
Our
hope
is
later
this
year
will
be
deep
in
Phase,
One,
we're
thinking
and,
and
all
of
these
are
subject
to
change,
and
you
know
we're
open
to
input,
Etc
and-
and
you
know,
have
engaged
with
some
of
the
the
mdjs
already
on
this
matter,
planning
on
engaging
with
others,
as
as
we
get
closer
to
launch
date,
but
yeah
we're
we're
excited
about
rolling
out
we're,
starting
with
the
kind
of
highest
hit
neighborhoods
which,
which
would
include
you,
know
the
hill
and
downtown
Homewood,
Homewood,
East,
Hills
and
I
forget
what
else
is
included
in
Cooper's
District,
but
then
as
well.
L
It
was
most
of
the
north
I
guess.
The
entire
North
Side
would
be
covered
as
well,
and
then
we're
hoping
to
do
the
same
thing
again
with
without
with
the
same
funding,
I'm
expanding
further
into
another
four
districts
and
yeah.
We're
we're
excited
to
you,
know
kind
of
get
more
service
out
there
for
for
folks
and
helping
keep
people
housed
and
yeah.
Just
really
thankful
for
all
the
support
that
the
Housing
Opportunity
funds
and
the
board
and
and
staff
have
provided.
L
So
we're
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
I
know,
there's
there's
one
more
slide
that
maybe
it's
worth
touching
on
heavy
Ray
before
we
open
up
but
yeah.
Essentially
we're
trying
to
do
a
similar
thing
on
that
page.
Web
page
is
sometimes
a
forgotten
part
of
the
legal
assistance
program,
but
homeowners
wow,
maybe
not
as
hard
hit
in
general
as
tenants
or
as
Maybe,
not
immediately
vulnerable
to
losing
their
housing.
L
There
is
definitely
pretty
significant
concerns
of
people
and-
and
you
know,
for
foreclosures
are
already
going
up,
not
as
deeply
as
we've
seen
in
other
housing
crises
like
you
know,
2008
2009,
but
but
still
nonetheless,
you
know
we
want
to
keep
all
pittsburghers
housed
so
where
we've
engaged
with
the
two
lap
H
Partners,
that
are
funded
through
this
program,
which
are
marant
lawn
and
again,
Neighborhood
Legal
Services
we're
hoping
we're
reaching
out
to
action.
L
Housing
who
has
a
pilot
program
which
again
has
been
received
a
bit
of
funding
from
from
the
Housing
Opportunity
fund
for
the
homeowner
assistance
fund,
which
is
a
big
chunk
of
money
to
kind
of
cover
mortgage
arrears
for
pennsylvanians,
and
it's
actually
a
nationwide
program.
L
But
there's
a
lot
of
potential
collaboration
and
and
ways
to
kind
of
build
this
same
or
not
the
same,
but
a
similar
system
for
homeowners
to
provide
that
same
no
wrong
door,
simple,
streamlined
and
efficient,
handoffs
of
referrals
and
and
people
getting
more
targeted,
Outreach
and
making
sure
that
you
know
as
few
people
and
ideally
no
one
falls
through
any
of
the
cracks.
Especially
while
we
have
you
know,
funding
available
and
and
these
Services
provided
so
did
I
miss
anything
foreign.
I
No
I,
don't
think
so.
I'm
very
excited
about
lab
page
I
do
want
to
say
that
it
to
you
guys
the
Hof,
Advisory,
Board,
I
I,
think
both
arms
of
lap
are
really
brilliant
and
if
we
could
have
taken
on
the
development
of
both
programs
simultaneously,
I
think
we
would
have
enthusiastically
lap
tea
due
to
the
sheer
volume
of
individuals
that
experience
eviction
in
Allegheny
County,
which
is
around
14
000
people
a
year
and
right
around
one-third
of
those
are
City
of
Pittsburgh
residents
has
been
a
lot.
I
We
we've
had
a
lot
to
learn
and
a
lot
of
experimentation
to
do.
There's
no
wrong
door
philosophy,
I
really
really
stand
by,
but
there
is
definitely
Logistics
that
had
to
be
sorted
out
into
it.
But
as
we
have
gotten
that
rolling
I
have
been
really
excited
to
turn
toward
lab
yeah
build
these
Bridges
and
Partnerships.
M
And
Abby
Ray
this
is
Christina.
If
I
will
lab
8
I
mean
just
because
of
the
half
program
operating
at
the
state
level
and
the
amount
of
rental,
not
rental,
Mortgage
Assistance
money,
that's
been
available.
The
pipeline
of
folks
needing
lap
H
Services
has
what
I
would
describe
as
a
trickle
compared
to
the
Deluge
of
tenants
needing
assistance
there.
There
seem
to
be
more
financials
between
the
various
moratoria
on
evictions,
I
mean
on
on
more
mortgage
foreclosures
and
the
amount
of
money
available
through
half
and
other
programs.
M
The
need
for,
while
still
exists
on
the
homeowner's
side,
wasn't
as
clear
and
present
immediately
during
the
pandemic
as
the
tenant
demand
for
services.
So.
M
Getting
so
I
think
we're
in
a
prime
time
to
really
kind
of
strengthen
that
collaboration
on
the
homeowner
side.
So
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
there
was
a
re
there's.
Also
a
rationale
for
that.
The
demand
wasn't
facing
us.
L
Exactly
yeah,
no
and
and
even
just
for
perspective
within
Allegheny
County
Abby
Ray,
mentioned
that
there's
on
average
over
the
past
decade
or
so
there's
been
about
13
to
14
000
eviction
filings
every
year.
There
are
about
a
tenth
of
those
for
foreclosure
filing,
so
there's
over
a
thousand,
but
under
two
thousand
so
I'm
in
the
average
year.
So
that's
a
pretty
significant
shift
and
then
and
then
as
well.
L
The
eviction
timeline
is
extremely
short,
as,
as
some
of
you
know,
it's
a
matter
of
weeks,
whereas
foreclosure
timeline
is
is
months
and
sometimes
over
a
year,
especially
if
they
receive
services.
Sorry,
we
went
long.
Thank
you
all
for
listening
and
again,
thank
you
even
more
for
the
support,
we're
happy
to
answer
any
questions
or
provide
any
more
detail
as
a
q
or
later
as
as
necessary.
So
thank
you
again.
A
I
So
we
have
been
doing
lab
tea
since
May
of
2021
and
our
hope
is
to
roll
out
the
to
continue
on
with
our
current
programming
as
operates,
but
roll
out
the
expanded
program
with
in-person
representation
at
mdj's
weekly
attempting
to
get
all
individuals
connected
with
legal
assistance
in
a
resource
Navigator,
ideally
August
within.
L
Mean
it's
worth
underlining
that
yeah
so
that
the
service
has
been
going
since
the
essentially
we
we
got
up
to
speed
early
in
the
middle
of
last
year,
but
this
this
will
be
a
pure
expansion,
so
there
won't
be
any
loss
of
current
service
at
all.
N
N
Work,
thank
you
so
much
for
your
dedication
and
commitment.
We
know
this
has
been
difficult.
You've
been
fantastic
Advocates.
We
appreciate
all
your
hard
work
and
Hope.
You
know
to
continue
our
collaboration
into
the
future.
A
All
right,
if
there
are
no
other
questions
for
the
legal
assistance
program,
Representatives,
we
can
move
forward
with
administrative
items.
Thank
you
guys
so
much
for
all
of
your
hard
work
and
for
taking
the
time
to
be
with
us
today
to
explain
how
everything's
going.
A
G
Yeah
so
yesterday,
I
did
send
out
the
annual
report
and
our
2021
annual
audit
for
the
Hoff
program
over
to
everybody
in
the
board.
If,
for
some
reason
you
didn't
get
that,
let
me
know
I
did
include
here
in
our
presentation.
Just
you
know
some
brief
Snippets
in
case
you
didn't
have
a
chance
to
look
at
it.
I
know,
I
did
send
it
a
little
bit
later.
In
the
evening
we
kept
a
theme
of
you
know:
keeping
Pittsburgh
home.
G
A
lot
of
the
messaging
was
around
that
I
just
included
some
of
the
infographics
here
that
we
had
in
the
annual
report.
I
think
it
turned
out
to
be
a
really
great
product.
I
was
really
pleased.
Everybody
at
the
Ori
was
pleased
with
this
product,
so
good
work
to
everybody
who
spent
time
helping
with
this.
G
For
the
annual
allocation
plan,
we
did
speak
with
total
business
package
and
they
are
the
ones
that
we're
going
to
go
with
for
conducting
the
community
engagement
survey
for
that
process.
We're
probably
going
to
start
meeting
with
them
next
week
to
you
know,
start
planning
out
everything
for
the
community
engagement.
It
is
a
minority
and
woman-owned
business
and
they
had
a
lot
of
really
interesting
ideas
to
expand.
G
You
know
our
Outreach
and
try
to
get
more
respondents,
so
I'm,
really
looking
forward
to
working
with
them
and
moving
forward
to
have
a
a
good
survey
conducted
and
I
did
want
to
go
through
the
survey
that
I
had
made
updates
on
based
on
the
feedback
that
was
delivered
to
me
for
members
of
the
board,
so
I'm
going
to
share
that
really
quick
with
everybody
and
just
go
through
that
survey
with
some
of
the
changes.
G
And
let
me
know
for
some
reason:
you
cannot
see
this
I
will
make
it
a
little
bit
bigger
and
if
that
is
too
small,
let
me
know
one
of
the
things
that
was
mentioned
within
the
survey
was
in
the
very
beginning
in
the
introduction,
adding
in
a
segment
to
let
people
know.
You
know
this
is
to
acquire
feedback
from
the
community
so
that
we
can
design.
G
G
Some
of
the
other
things
that
were
brought
up
for
changes
included
just
some
clarifications
and
some
of
the
questions
you
know
just
some
minor
edits
to
you
know
how
things
rewarded.
So
we
went
ahead
and
changed
some
of
those
and
then
the
part
that
we
added
in
to
account
for
the
questions
about
two
different
things.
So
one
of
them
was,
you
know
how
would
you
prefer
to
provide
feedback
about
programs
to
the
Housing
Opportunity
fund,
so
this
is
just
to
acquire.
G
You
know
how
people
would
like
to
be
able
to
provide
feedback
to
us,
and
this
will
determine
how
moving
forward
you
know.
We
set
up
different
ways
of
you
know,
having
people
provide
feedback
and
then
also
for
you
know,
meeting
times.
You
know
whether
that
be
you
know,
public
meetings
that
we
might
do
in
the
community,
or
you
know
whether
that
be
for
The
Advisory
board
meeting,
which
Kelly
will
discuss
later.
G
O
This
is
Paula
I.
Have
a
question,
I
think
it's
on
right
there
in
question,
four,
where
it
says
on
our
website.
What
does
that
mean?
Is
that?
Is
it
like
a
I
guess
what
I'm
getting
at
is?
Is
there
another
virtual
option
that
might
be
maybe
more
simple
or
or
is
the
website?
Do
you
feel
like
user
friendly
and
people
can
then
leave
feedback
there.
G
A
Yeah
I,
like
the
perhaps
other
online
options,
as
in
addition
to
on
our
website,
because
I'm
not
sure
what
the
functionality
of
the
website
can
be,
but
other
Wildlife
options
would
give
some
variety.
You
know
I
I,
don't
know
if
you
would
be
open
to
checking
Facebook
for
messages,
but
that
would
be
like
a
another
online
option
that
would
be
possible
in
addition
to
websites
and
what's
list
the
website
specifically
and
what
else
is
listed
here.
G
And
then
one
other
topic
I
wanted
to
bring
up
was
that
we
did
conduct
several
presentations
on
have
hat
plus
and
the
small
landlord
fund
throughout
the
city.
During
the
month
of
June,
we
were
not
able
to
reach
every
different
area
of
the
city.
I
did
reach
out
to
all
the
rcos
in
different
partners
within
the
community,
but
really
only
the
East
End
and
the
north
side
had
places
that
were
willing
to
have
presentations
set
up.
So
we
did
one
at
fineview.
We
did
one
at
Bloomfield
Garfield.
G
We
did
two
different
ones
in
Hazelwood
and
those
were
just
short
just
attending
other
meetings
that
were
already
in
place
and
just
giving
an
update,
and
then
we
also
did
one
other
one
that
is
oh
Highland
Park.
We
did
one
with
that
Community
as
well,
now
I'm
going
to
hand
it
off
to
Evan
to
give
the
final
Ura
administrative
updates.
P
Sure,
thanks
Jen,
can
you
just
go
to
the
I
believe
it
would
be
the
next
slide
here,
yeah,
so,
okay.
The
first
update
here
is
on
the
kind
of
like
development
of
meeting
slash
Summit,
that
The
Advisory
board
has
been
interested
in
hosting,
and
the
plan
is
to
have
this
scheduled
for
a
couple
weeks
out
and
I'm
going
to
be
sending
out
a
scheduling
poll
to
The
Advisory
Board
to
set
this
up,
but
just
to
refresh
everyone's
understandings
of.
P
Why
we're
having
this
meeting
it's
just
to
better
understand
what
the
structure
of
these
projects
overall
are,
and
we
obviously
have
a
lot
of
development
experience
on
The
Advisory
board,
but
then
other
people
who
specialize
in
very
different
areas
of
in
topics
related
to
affordable
housing
and
so
just
to
to
better
grasp
kind
of
what
has
an
opportunity
fund's
role
is
in
projects
like
these
I
think
is
the
main
goal
of
this
meeting,
and
so
on
this
slide
here
we've
got
the
different
types
of
projects
that
we'll
be
discussing
and
So.
P
The
plan
is
to
have
the
respective
Developers
for
each
type
of
project,
be
at
the
meeting
to
talk
briefly
about
you
know
some
of
the
challenges
that
are
posed
by
these
specific
types
of
projects
and
how
the
Housing
Opportunity
funding
other
gap
funders
tend
to
step
in
and
help.
So
these
four
types
are
what
we're
currently
thinking.
P
P
And
then
the
last
update
I
have
is
some
some
good
news
about
some
Hof
funded
projects.
So
the
first
one
here
we
had
there
was
a
ribbon
cutting
early
last
week
at
Five
Points,
which
is
on
Perrysville
Avenue
and
it's
basically
six
affordable
rental
apartments
that
are
over
top
of
four
commercial
Bays
at
a
major
intersection
in
The
Observatory,
Hill
Neighborhood.
P
This
is
actually
one
of
the
first
projects
that
was
ever
funded
by
the
Housing
Opportunity
fund,
with
a
240
000
rental
gap
program
loan
that
secured
some
affordability
or
total
affordability.
Above
these
commercial
spaces
and
all
those
apartments.
It
was
about
a
2.6
million
dollar
project
and,
as
you
can
see
in
this
photo,
and
it's
right
next
to
the
mayor
to
people
over
Mark,
Masterson
from
our
board
is,
is
represented
there
and
the
Community.
B
P
That
we
are
very
happy
to
see
coming
to
fruition
and
it's
good
to
see
you
know
some
actual
they're
getting
moving.
It's
getting
cut
so
I.
J
Well,
yeah
it
was,
it
was
a
project
that
you
know
went
through
covet
and
lots
of
interesting
things
all
related
to
trying
to
build
things
and
get
inspectors
through
construction.
But
it's
it's
a
fan
that
the
buildings
look
great.
My
understanding
is
that
the
tenant
selection
has
started
they're
working
with
the
housing
authority
on
housing,
Choice
vouchers
to
make
that
process
work
and.
J
Just
getting
the
supply
chain
stuff
with
refrigerators
or
stoves,
or
something
that
they're
waiting
on,
but
hopefully
we'll
have
so
our
office
is
also
here.
J
We
anchored
as
one
of
the
commercial
tenants
to
make
the
project
work
and
we're
just
looking
forward
to
having
neighbors
upstairs,
and
this
is
one
of
those
types
of
projects.
You
know,
I'm,
hoping
that
we
can
do
more
of
all
around
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
to
provide
analyze
business
districts
and
provide
more
opportunities
for
affordable
housing.
P
Yeah
absolutely
and
then
the
other
piece
of
good
news
is
the
Gladstone
school,
which
is
a
nine
percent
low
income,
housing
tax
credit
project
that
basically
the
Adaptive
reuse
of.
What's
currently
a
vacant
school
on
Hazelwood
Avenue
in
Hazelwood
that
project
closed
just
this
past
Friday
there
was
a
number
of
sources
that
were
put
into
this
project,
but
the
Housing
Opportunity
to
fund
also
has
funding
in
the
form
of
our
rental
gap
program.
P
That's
been
utilized
and
business
51
new
units
to
the
neighborhood
are
going
to
be
market
rate,
but
then
43
of
the
units
are
affordable,
rental
units
all
to
households
at
varying
incomes,
adorable
of
60
Ami,
but
the
majority
you
know
below
that
50
and
my
threshold,
which
is
what
bhof
obviously
seeks
to
incorporate,
and
so
Hazelwood
initiative
was
a
instrumental
development
partner
here
and
so
I
don't
know.
So
many
of
you
have
anything
else
to
add
about
this
project.
C
I
do
I,
just
actually
was
going
to
ask
to
jump
in
because
I
wanted
to
give
big
kudos
to
the
Ura
staff.
We
had
some
really
big
hurdles
to
climb
in
the
last
couple
weeks,
especially
and
everybody.
C
Our
primary
contact
was
Brett
Morgan,
so
I
don't
know
if
he's
on
the
call
or
available,
but
he
was
phenomenal
in
working
with
us
as
well
as
you
Evan,
but
also
your
legal
team,
Matt
Santiago
in
particular
that
that
you
guys
had
some
big
Hoops
to
jump
through
and
still
made.
It
happen
in
time
to
meet
all
of
our
deadlines
with
phfa.
So
it
was.
C
P
Nice
thanks
for
the
kind
words
yeah
Brett,
did
an
amazing
job
with
this.
It
was
a
very
complicated
project
from
a
funding
standpoint,
so
we
are
certainly
relieved
to
be
through
with
the
closing
and
kind
of
moving
on
to
construction
here.
So
we
will
be
back
obviously
for
ribbon,
cutting
and
I.
Don't
know
16
months,
hopefully
so
stay
tuned
on
that,
but
just.
B
P
To
share
some
good
news
related
to
some
actual
projects
getting
done
with.
You
know
these
approvals
that
you
see
month
after
month.
Things
are
going
on
out
there
and
you'll
see
more
of
that
in
the
annual
report
as
well,
but
just
wanted
to
share
that
so
appreciate
the
time
today,
but
I
think
I
can
kick
it
back
to
you.
Kelly.
A
So,
as
everyone
probably
recalls,
we
have
talked
about
how
this
9
A.M
Thursday
schedule
may
not
be
the
best
time
to
hold
meetings
and
then
also
we
had
talked
about
returning
to
in
person
and
hybrid
format
meetings
and
with
the
hope,
of
course,
that
that
would
impart
help
us
to
with
our
public
participation
problem
that
we've
had
over
the
last
well,
basically
since
covid,
but
seems
to
have
seen
even
more
of
a
sharper
decrease.
A
I
would
say
probably
this
calendar
year
and
so
which
of
course
is
even
more
significant
than
it
generally
is,
as
we
start
to
get
into
the
allocation
plan
process,
because
that's
when
we
really
start
to
see
even
in
a
regular
in-person
year,
a
steep
include
increase
in
public
participation,
so
meeting
in
person
our
options
are
Mondays
or
Thursday
afternoons.
We
could
do
a
9,
11,
1
or
3
for
Mondays,
or
we
could
do
Thursdays.
That
would
be
at
one
or
three
pm.
A
We
could
do
those
either
monthly
or
bi-monthly.
We
had
talked
about
that
a
little
bit
and
we
would
want
to
identify
a
process
for
developers
and
other
any
other
entities
that
had
emergency
items
that
came
up
in
between
those
meetings
to
be
able
to
reach
us
and
access
us
around
those
as
well.
So
the
start
date
would
be
since
we're
already
in
July
would
probably
be
either
September
or
October,
and
so
these
are
kind
of
broad
scale.
A
What
we're
talking
about
and
what
we
wanted
to
present
to
the
board
for
discussion,
and
perhaps
some
consensus
building
around
these
two
I
guess
three
items.
One
would
be
the
day
and
time
the
next
be
monthly
versus
bi-monthly
and
then
the
last
would
be
a
start
date
for
those
hybrid
meetings,
any
pressing
thoughts
on
any
of
those
three
or
any
place
that
anybody
would
like
to
start
on
those
items.
A
Okay,
yes
I
also
like
for
3
P.M,
so
it's
kind
of
you
can
end
your
work
day
instead
of
having
enough
time
to
need
to
go
back
to
the
office
after
a
one
o'clock
meeting
and
it
kind
of
maybe
wiped
so
I
like
the
idea
of
a
three
o'clock
as
well.
Any
other
thoughts
on
afternoons.
D
N
Sorry
this
is
Adrian,
so
if
we
really
want
to
encourage
more
public
participation,
I
think
three
could
be
just
as
difficult
as
nine,
because
if
anyone
is
working
through
a
child
coming
home
from
school,
three
could
be
very
difficult
for
folks.
A
So
maybe
we're
in
at
one
o'clock
so
Wednesday
if
there
are
no
other
thoughts
on
that,
so
Monday
versus
Thursday
thoughts.
A
P
J
J
That
might
be
the
only
chance
that
you
get
to
participate
and
that's
what
I've
known
my
entire
career
is
working
with
volunteers,
you're
going
to
get
more
people
that
show
up
at
six
o'clock
at
night,
but
then
you're
gonna
get
at
one
o'clock
in
the
afternoon.
So
I
mean
we.
If
we
can't
do
every
meeting
like
that,
I
I
understand,
but
we
should
at
least
be
thinking
about
doing
something.
That's
that
is
really
convenient
for
the
public
to
attend.
If
we
want
to
get
the
community
feedback.
O
Yeah
and
I
thought
we
talked
about
if
we're
going
to
meet
monthly,
one
of
those
meetings
being
so
once
a
quarter.
There's
a
six
o'clock
meeting
or
something
like
that.
So
you
know
if
we,
if
we
meet
monthly
Monday
at
1
pm
and
with
that
time
being
more
flexible
than
our
current
time,
but
also
advertising
that
you
know
in
the
the
end
of
this
quarter.
O
We're
gonna
do
a
six
o'clock
meeting,
and
so
that's
a
four.
That's
four
commitments.
A
year
to
the
evening,
I
don't
know,
I
think
that
that
could
be
feasible.
A
N
N
A
A
N
I
think
that's
that's
great
I
think
it
creates
more
of
that
accommodation
of
everyone
who
would
be
bringing
information
and
expertise
involvement
before.
J
A
So
I
think
what
he
just
sent:
ask
Evan
or
Chad,
either
of
them
to
go
back
to
the
city
clerk's
office,
to
see
what
we
could
do
from
an
evening
perspective
on
a
somewhat
standing
basis,
because
these
are
the
times
that
the
clerk's
office
have
provided
and,
of
course,
the
clerk's
office
in
part
is
because
that's
where
city
council
is
pre-wired
to
do
hybrid
meetings
already
and
to
have
that
broadcast
as
well,
so
that
we're
not
losing
one
functionality
in
exchange
for
the
other.
G
A
Thank
you,
okay,
so
it
looks
like
we're
at
1pm
with
the
occasional
6
p.m.
Do
we
have
a
preference
for
Mondays
versus
Thursdays.
O
My
preference
is
Monday,
I.
Think
that's
just
me,
but
I'm
also
open
to
both
and
my
reason,
I
think
for
Monday
is
because
the
beginning
part
of
Mondays
is
pretty
busy.
The
back
part
is
kind
of
I.
Think
there's
space
for
that,
and
it
also
it
gets
it
out
of
the
it
we
we
have
it
taken
care
of
early
in
the
week.
H
J
The
only
I
I
we
have
a
standing
loan,
Review
Committee,
which
is
typically
the
fourth
Monday
of
each
month.
But
as
long
as
we.
N
N
Yeah,
so
as
long
as
we're
you
know
thinking
about
that
I,
don't
I,
don't
know
if
there's
folks,
that
can
speak
more
intelligently
to
that
than
I
can.
But
those
are
folks
who
had
traditionally
been
part
of
our
public
comments
and
have
phased
out
of
that
so
being
at
a
time
that
they're
already
convening
may
be
a
great
thing,
may
get
more
participation
or
maybe
a
challenge
so.
F
Adrian
those
meetings
are
bi-weekly,
so
as
long
as
it
wasn't
the
same
week,
I
think
that'd
be
great
and
then,
like
you
said
it
would
be
the
off
weeks.
If
people
kind
of
had
that
time
open,
there
may
be
more
participation.
A
In
opposition,
okay,
so
looks
like
we
have
Mondays
at
1pm,
okay,
so
then
next
piece
which
is
checking
down
the
list
would
be
frequency
and
we
had
discussed
monthly
versus
bi-monthly
and
the
bi-monthly
nut
that
we're
actually
off
on
those
other
months,
but
that
that
would
allow
for
some
deeper
Dives
on
committees
to
be
able
to
really
get
some
dive,
dig
in
a
little
bit
on
those
during
those
off
months
for
the
session
and
perhaps
see
some
increased
involvement
of
not
The
Usual
Suspects
on
committees,
because
that
would
kind
of
accommodate
or
take
it
up
those
two-ish
hours
that
we're
normally
setting
aside
for
Housing
Opportunity
fund.
A
Then
again,
the
concern
was
what
happens
if
somebody
needs
something
in
between
and
if
we
were
to
move
to
a
bi-monthly
piece,
we
would
have
to
obviously
give
some
thought
and
consideration
into
how
to
make
sure
that
any
emergencies,
actual
emergencies,
not
kind
of
you
know
as
they
sometimes
come
up-
were
handled
in
a
timely
fashion.
Thoughts
on
monthly
versus
bi-monthly.
C
P
P
Honestly
on
what
is
just
going
on
and
that
are
cycle
of
items
in
any
given
two-month
period,
you
know
I
think
there's
from
what
I
gathered
over
the
last
year,
or
so
when
it
comes
to
our
presentations
and
projects,
and
things
like
that,
you
know
there
there's
a
desire
for
there
to
be
a
fair
amount
of
detail
in
the
packets,
but
not
necessarily
long
drawn
out
presentations
on
each
project.
P
So
I
don't
know
that
that
if
we
did
have,
let's
say
four
projects
to
present
in
a
month
on
a
given
month
that
we
necessarily
be
a
long
drawn
out
meeting
so
I
I
think
there
would
be.
We
would
adapt
and
I'm
not
sure
that
that
would
be
an
issue
after
that,
but
obviously
we
can
see
once
it
if
it
were
to
move
to
it
bi-monthly
schedule.
The
other
point
that
I
would
make
her
that
there
might
be
some
concern
about.
It
is
the
just.
G
P
Projects
like,
if
you
know
developer
claims,
they
absolutely
have
to
have
something
in
a
given
month.
You
know
I
think
there
will
be
some
better
honestly
boundaries
with
the
staff
being
able
to
kind
of
have
a
an
eight-week
gap
between
meetings
where
you
know,
there's
a
certain
cut
off
date.
P
It
almost
makes
it
more
of
like
a
cycle
as
opposed
to
each
month.
There's
you
know
a
train
leaving
the
station
every
few
weeks,
basically
and
so
I
think
that
could
be
a
benefit
to
the
the
quality
of
the
projects
that
we're
able
to
bring
to
the
board
as
well.
A
Evan
would
that
also
impact
time?
I
know
we're
talking
about
the
presentations
and
the
length
of
presentations
in
the
Q,
a
that
we
have
afterwards.
A
A
P
Yeah
I
also
think
that
would
be
a
pretty
realistic
possibility
if
the
package
could
come
out.
You
know
a
couple
weeks
before
that
next
meeting,
conceivably
as
opposed
to
a
few
days
just
since
we
would
have
kind
of
longer
lead
up
times
to
to
prep
that
and
get
everything
in
order,
so
I
think
it
as.
B
P
Look
at
it
right
now.
It
would
allow
for
just
a
little
bit
less
of
a
rush
on
a
monthly
basis
from
an
administrative
standpoint.
N
Foreign
just
a
quick
processing
item,
so
if
we
go
to
buy
monthly
and
then
we
want
to
do
each
quarter
meeting
that
would
be
more
in
the
community
or
scheduled
in
the
evening.
That's
four
meetings
out
of
the
six
would
then
be
those
evening
meetings.
So
just
logistically
I
wanted
to
put
that
on
the
table.
A
Yeah,
though
that
is
challenging,
because
this
was
not
we're,
the
bi-monthly
versus
monthly
conversation
was
not
made
in
anticipation
of
changing
our
times
quarterly.
A
So,
yes,
that
is
a
challenge
and
of
course
any
shift
to
this
would
be
following
Planet.
You
know
getting
our
allocation
plan
done
in
October,
so
nobody
is
voting
to
actually
get
a
month
off
in
the
next
three
months,
just
so
you're.
Just
so
you're
aware
we
plan
to
to
keep
you
captive
for
the
next
three
months
until
we
get
this
allocation
plan
started,
so
this
would
be
late
fall
or
early
next
year,
but
no.
A
That
is
an
excellent
point
regarding
those
times
and
whether
or
not
we
would
want
to
keep
the
quarterly
evening
schedule,
because
that
would
only
be
two
meetings
at
you
know
1
pm,
if
we,
if
we
do
this
or
if
we
wanted
to
move
towards,
so
we
talked
also
about
having
Community
engagement
sessions
in
the
in
the
community
as
well,
in
addition
to
our
regular
meetings.
So
perhaps
that's
something
that
we
could
also
do.
A
We
talked
about
doing
one
in
each
of
our
five
sectors
over
the
course
of
the
Year,
and
that
would
not
be
our
regular
business
meeting.
So
we
don't
necessarily
we
could
keep
those
five
and
go
to
bi-monthly
without,
inter
interrupting
that
to
have
that
in
community
feedback
opportunity,
because
I
believe,
if
we're
having
our
traditional
meeting,
we
can't
do
that
in
the
community,
because
we
wouldn't
necessarily
have
spaces
that
are
wired
for
everything
that
we
need.
A
So
that
would
be
if
we
did
both
a
total
of
nine,
which
I'm
not
necessarily
opposed
to.
But
just
if
we're
adding
all
of
the
different
pieces
of
what
we've
been
talking
about
together,
that'd
be
for
evening
meetings
downtown
and
five
Community
evening,
meetings
in
neighborhoods,
one
for
feedback
and
sharing
the
other
for
standard
business.
A
So
it
may
or
may
not
be
necessary
to
have
both
or
we
may
be
able
to
do
two
meetings
in
the
evening
at
city
council
to
get
to
catch
a
different
group
of
people
than
are
available
and
able
to
show
up
at
1
pm
downtown
if
that
makes
sense,
just
kind
of
talking
through
the
different
options
and
things
that
are
on
the
table
and
doubling
back
to
what
we
had
discussed
last
month.
J
Yeah
I
guess
I
would
kind
of
say:
let's
change
one
thing
at
a
time
and
see
how
it
works
Maybe
in
the
minority
here,
but
so
I
really
also
don't
want
to
schedule
meetings
if
we
don't
need
them,
but
you.
J
Got
21
million
dollars
sitting
in
accounts
as
of
year
end
and
it's
having
fewer
meetings
gonna?
What
does
that
really
do
to
the
quantity
of
projects
that
are
moving
through?
It
would
be
my
initial
concern
if
we're
cutting
that
down,
it
looks
like
we
are.
Having
trouble
getting
money
to
to
get
out
there.
Is
that
gonna?
What
does
that
do
to
maybe
throttling
that
process?
Even
more.
A
I,
don't
think
our
meeting
frequency
is
keeping
money
from
getting
out
the
door.
I
think
projects
have
either
slowed
or
they're.
Not.
Actually
you
know
the
clothings
I
think
are
taking
well
I
mean
obviously
I'm,
not
Theory
stuff,
so
I'm
not
fully
fully
familiar,
but
I
think
that
the
money
getting
out
the
door
I
think
a
lot
of
that
is
committed,
but
just
not
drawn
down.
Is
that
my
understanding,
or
are
things
just
not
coming
in
Evan?
What
is.
P
It
yeah
I
think
it's
for
the
the
former
there
that
I
I
wouldn't
say
so
the
meetings
or
or.
B
P
Any
you
know
like
the
frequency
of
meetings
would
be
to
hold
up
there
when
it
comes
to
I
mean
you
could
break
down
program
by
program,
but
with
some
development
programs
again
like
development
in
general,
especially
in
the
affordable
housing.
P
You
know
we're
seeing
that
across
the
boarding
projects
at
HLF
invests
in
or
you
know
that
are
not
funded
by
the
Ura
or
the
Hof,
and
then
I
think
on
the
consumer
side,
anything
that
relies
on
contractors
we're
also
having
issues
with
just
you
know
the
volume
of
projects
on
a
like
a
waiting
list
of
people,
funds
committed,
but
yeah,
not
necessarily
able
to
get
a
contractor
out
at
that
time.
So
I
think
that
it's
it's
more.
P
Some
factors
outside
of
you
know
how
frequently
that
that
is
causing
some
challenges
and.
D
I
I
feel
like
I,
don't
know,
I've
been
on
this
board
for
a
long
time
and
we've
been
meeting
monthly
and
we
do
have
enough
to
review
like
the
frequency
does
feel
right
to
me.
Given
the
number
of
projects
I
mean
ultimately,
I
would
look
to
the
Ura
staff
to
make
a
recommendation
on
monthly
versus
bi-monthly
I
think
they
understand.
Wendy's
approval
needs
to
happen.
D
How
much
flexibility
they
need,
what
their
workload
is,
but
just
as
an
observer,
it
seems
like
we've
had
enough
projects
coming
through
every
month
that
it
makes
sense
to
meet
monthly
with
maybe
occasionally
taking
a
month
off
in
the
summer,
because
we
we
talk
a
lot
about
how
we're
not
we
don't
have
enough
time
to
pay
attention
and
review
the
package
that
we
get
and
if
we
move
to
bi-monthly
I
worry
that
that
would
happen
even
more
because
we'd
be
trying
to
cram
everything
into
this
meeting
and
I.
H
F
F
F
I
was
just
trying
to
just
think
so
that
there's
a
purpose
with
those
evening
ones
and
we
kind
of
spread
it
out.
D
I
think
we
can
try
the
evening
meetings
and
maybe
I'm
just
cynical
of
all
of
my
ears
and
public
engagement
meetings,
but
I
I,
don't
know
that
people
are
gonna
participate
if
we're
downtown
in
the
city
county
building
I
do
like
the
idea
of
occasional
things
out
in
the
community
where
it's
more
of
a
listening
session
and
we're
there
to
talk
about
Hof
and
solicit
feedback
that
I.
Don't
we
can
experiment
but
I.
D
D
A
I
I
agree,
I'm,
not
sure,
I.
Think
the
folks
that
generally
show
up
to
community
meetings
are
more
Community
centered
in
terms
of
being
in
their
community
and
or
something
that
they
care
passionately
about
versus.
Our
traditional
meetings
are
recovering
kind
of
everything
under
Under,
the
Sun
and
perhaps
some
administrative
items.
We
can
give
it
a
shot
and
see
what
happens
or
we
could
say
we're
going
to
do
those
five
meetings
in
those
communities
and
not
do
the
evening
ones.
A
You
know
we
could,
you
know,
decide
amongst
ourselves,
but
it
sounds
like
we
want
to
do
monthly
on
Mondays
at
1
pm.
That's
it
seems
like
we
do
have
consensus
around
that
and
to
to
Chad.
Do
we
have
neighborhood
meetings
as
part
of
our
allocation
plan
at
public
Outreach?
Is
that.
G
So
you
know
for
the
community
engagement
survey
and
what
we're
doing
with
total
business
package,
they
will
be
doing
community
meetings
over
a
six-week
period,
I
believe
here
this
summer.
So
one
thing
you
know
in
the
future:
you
know
unless
we
were
going
to
throw
out
a
meeting
this
month
and
put
it
together.
G
You
know
maybe
next
year
during
you
know,
if
we
were
going
to
do
evening
meetings,
we
could
you
know
potentially
have
you
know
some
things
in
the
spring
and
you
know
summer
leading
up
to
the
allocation
planning
pending.
We
had,
but
we
wanted
for
the
survey
that
year
in
time.
N
We're
dialoguing
back
and
forth
on
this,
which
is
perfect.
That's
what
we
want
to
do.
There
doesn't
really
seem
to
be
a
consensus.
That's
forming
aside
from
you
know.
It
feels
like
folks
are
saying.
The
monthly
meeting
is
valuable.
Folks
are
seeming
to
say.
Monday
at
one
seems
like
it's
manageable,
convenient
to
your
point.
Kelly
we
do
need
to
meet
over
these
next
few
months.
There's
work
to
be
done
that
we
can't
exactly
say
well
we're
going
to
meet
less
because
we
have
items
that
we
need
to
solidify.
N
Does
it
make
sense
to
you
know,
come
away
from
this
meeting
with
the
understanding
that
we're
really
going
to
need
to
meet
in
August,
September
and
October
to
get
our
core
work
done
and
during
those
meetings
in
August,
September
October
continue
to
massage
this
conversation,
because
in
parallel
there's
this
Outreach
work.
That's
being
done
that
we're
going
to
get
information
sent
back
to
us
and
maybe
that
helps
inform
Us
and
how
we
want
to
move
forward.
N
A
No
excellent
I
love
that
Adrian
I
was
going
to
kind
of
you
know.
That's
where
I
was
going
to
shift
is
to
is
that,
yes,
absolutely
I
think
we
can
get
through
this
year
and
through
this
allocation
plan
season,
and
then
that
would
be
the
pending
pending
that
feedback
a
good
time
to
evaluate
what
we
should
be
doing
in
terms
of
evening
or
in
the
community
Chad.
Could
we
possibly
add
a
question
around?
Do
you
want?
A
G
G
A
So
I'm
thinking
in
addition,
is
because
this
would
be
feedback
versus
like.
Would
you
attend?
Okay,
because
it's
like
base
like
all
right?
Would
you
show
up
like
oh
I,
don't
know
because
I
feel
like
if
I
were
reading
this,
perhaps
I
would
think
that
for
General
feedback
I
might
want
to
leave
it
on
the
website,
but
not
necessarily
I,
don't
know
I'm
just
thinking
I,
don't
know
if
that
makes
sense.
B
No
that's,
but
that.
A
That
a
carve
out
on
that
question
would
be
helpful.
Would
you
show
up
in
person,
or
would
you
show
up
if
we're
in
your
community
so
we're
on
on
track?
We
so
August
will
be
virtual.
A
The
same
way
that
we
have
been
the
discussion
would
also
be
around
moving
towards
in-person
and
hybrid
for
September
and
October,
and
that
would
be
shifting
to
this
Monday
at
1
pm.
Is
anyone?
Is
everyone,
okay
with
that
or
do
we
have
any
strong
thoughts
or
comments
on
doing
that,
one
way
or
the
other
virtual
for
August
and
then
in
person
for
September
October
Monday
at
1.
B
F
Kelly,
the
12th
of
the
26th
would
be
preferable.
The
first
one
is
Labor
Day.
Second,
one
is
open
and
then
the
third
one
is
Pittsburgh
United.
A
Chad,
did
you
get
that
and
then
we
should
look
at
the
housing
roundtables
meetings
as
well.
Does
anybody
have
those
schedules,
because
we
want
to
be
on
and
off
that.
A
P
So
I
will
say
one
consideration
with
how
we
do
this
on
a
recurring
basis.
Is
this
meeting
because
the
Ura
board
is
the
governing
board?
Who
has
an
opportunity
fund,
and
this
Advisory
Board
brings
recommendations
to
that
governing
board?
We
need
to
have
the
meeting
occur
before
the
Ura
board,
so
in
in
the
case
of
September,
like
I,
do
understand
what
the
fifth
is:
Labor
Day,
so
if
we
did
it
on
the
12th,
that
would
be
after
the
URI
board,
which
is
always
on
the
second
Thursday
of
the
month.
P
So
we
might
want
to
think
about
maybe
pushing
this
off
until
October
just
to
not
have
to
kind
of
dance
around
alternate
date
for
our
first
like
newly
scheduled
rescheduled
meeting.
If
that
makes
sense,.
P
J
F
And
also
because
if
it's
the
housing
Roundtable
is
every
other
week,
you
run
into
issues
when
you
were
doing
the
first
Monday,
it's
gonna
coincide,
so
it's
just
they
can
change.
Do.
A
We
want
to
look
at
Thursdays.
Is
anybody
opposed
to
Thursdays
at
one?
There
seem
to
be
less
holidays
days
off
three
day:
weekends
impacted
by
Thursdays
in
general.
N
F
D
A
So
first
Thursdays,
which
for
September,
would
actually
be
September
1st
and
then
moving
forward
at
1
pm
to
reassess
whether
or
not
we
need
to
continue
at
this
and
we're
going
to
we're
going
to
stay
monthly,
at
least
through
the
end
of
the
year,
and
we'll
assess
what
we're
going
to
do
in
the
community,
whether
or
not
it's
the
yeah,
but
what
they
want
to
see
if
they
want
to.
If
they
all
want
to
come
downtown,
then
I
think
an
evening
meeting
makes
sense.
A
If
everybody
wants
us
in
their
Community,
then
I
think
perhaps
doing
those
five
in
the
neighborhoods
would
make
more
sense,
and
if
it
split
then
maybe
we
go
out
nine
times
in
the
interim
Jan.
If
you
can
share
with
us
the
list
as
they
develop
it
around
Community
meetings
in
around
the
allocation
plan.
A
I
think
would
be
great
if
we
could
do
like
a
sign
up
for
folks
who
are
on
The
Advisory
Board
to
attend
as
they
are
able
or
as
they
are
connected
to
different
communities
or
groups
of
meetings
in
in
lieu
of
you
know
this
year.
Having
actual
meetings
in
the
community
I
think
that
would
be
great
no
pressure,
but
if
we
have
the
information
we
can
at
least
see
if
we're
available.
Yes,.
A
4Th
August
so
I
think
we're
going
to
keep
our
nine
o'clock
for
August
and
then
for
September
announce
that
we
were
shifting
to
1pm.
Okay.
J
A
New
time
so
yeah
same
channel,
but
not
same
time,
okay,
I
think
that
concludes
all
of
our
meeting
option.
Decision
tree
and
now
committee
report-
knowledge.
If
you
would
like
to
report
out
to
the
collective
on
your
last
meeting,.
E
Okay,
good
afternoon
or
so
so
morning,
good
morning,
so
we
met
with
I
met
with
a
few
of
our
team
members
here
and
Ura
members,
it
was
the
Housing
Opportunity
fund.
What
was
it?
The
Outreach,
my
marketing
out
receipt,
sorry
I'm
on
a
couple
of
boards,
a
couple
of
meetings,
and
so
basically
it
was
a
robust
conversation
with
Chad
Paul
myself,
Joanna
was
there
and
so
we're
in
the
mix
of
figuring
things
out
how
we're
gonna
engage.
The
community
Jack
came
to
us
with
presentation
and
some
ideas.
E
The
only
thing
that's
perfect
I
was
looking
for
so
I
think
we're
gonna
have
to
Circle
back
to
really
get
some
feedback
in
the
Ura
to
allow
them
to
tell
us
the
best
way
to
engage
and
use
the
social
media
as
well
as
to
use
marketing
strategies
to
so
that
we
can
like
follow
their
leads.
How
to
move
forward?
Also
Paul
had
one
of
his
great
interns
that
was,
there
was
gonna,
send
us
some
feedback
on
different
strategies
that
may
help
us
to
capture
information
from
the
larger
people.
E
I'm,
not
reading
my
notes,
it's
just
football
team.
Sorry
put
it
up.
You
know,
but
in
general
we
we
will
have
a
plan
moving
forward,
how
we'll
engage
like
the
world
and
we
will
use
social
media
from
the
Ura
to
lead
us
and
willfully.
We
can
lean
on
everyone
here
to
retweet,
to
re-share
to
forward
to
email
to
Their
audience.
E
So
that's
the
way
we'll
get
out
of
the
echo
chamber
of
the
internet
to
be
able
to
to
highlight
the
great
things
that
the
Ura
slash
hop
is
doing
how
we're
using
our
funds
and
to
try
to
like
raise
awareness
on
how
we
can
get
more
money
to
chime
on
my
my
colleague,
Mark
mass,
and
even
though
he
wasn't
there
I
made
that
point.
So
that's
and
brief
what
we
talked
about
I,
don't
know,
maybe
missing
some
things.
I,
don't
know
if
Paul
or
Chad
wants
to
jump
in
with
Joanna.
E
Cool
thanks,
I
stumbled
my
way
through
there,
but
but
we
will
be
meeting
again
soon
and
like
I
said
with
our
goal,
is
to
like
highlight
our
programs
and
to
really
get
true
engagement
using
the
internet
and
to
like
you
know,
move
us
forward
into
the
into
the
new
century
so
that
we're
just
not
like
in
the
community
but
we're
also
on
the
internet.
We
want
to
do
both.
So
that's
all
I
have,
unless
you
have
any
questions.
A
I'm
on
mute
just
talking
away
if
there
are
no
other
questions
for
knowledge,
I
believe
up.
Next,
we
have
the
Ura
with
some
expenditures
and
reports
on
programs.
G
Yeah
so
this
month,
I
just
kind
of
focused
on
the
you
know
where
programs
are
being
administered
I'm
still
working
on.
You
know,
building
out
some
of
the
things
that
Bettina
had
done
so
I'm,
just
kind
of
looking
at
in
what
I'm
going
to
present
to
you
visually.
You
know
some
of
the
different
programs
and
where
they
have
been
administered
whenever
they
all
go
inspired
hold
on
one
second
here,
I
apologize
I'm,
not
sure
why
they
are
not
showing
up
there.
P
J
B
G
Sorry
about
that
so
for
the
down
payment
and
closing
cost
assistance
program.
This
is
for
all
time.
This
shows
by
city
council
District,
where
you
know
this
funding
had
gone
to
and
I
think
that
all
of
these
slides
are
very
interesting,
I
think
it.
You
know
for
the
marketing
and
Outreach
team.
This
one
shows
some
opportunities
we
may
have
to.
You
know
kind
of
highlight
these
programs
in
other
neighborhoods
within
the
city.
It
seems
like
District,
nine
across
all
the
programs.
G
You
know,
gets
a
lot
of
the
projects,
this
one
it
has
District
four
and
District
nine,
as
taking
up
50
of
the
projects
that
we
have
completed
for
the
legal
assistance
program.
G
District
9
again
also
makes
up
a
large
chunk
and
this
one's
a
little
bit
more
evenly
dispersed
throughout
the
city,
so
not
as
bundled
in
one
area
as
others,
but
limited
legal
seems
to
be
the
primary
type
of
representation.
That's
been
going
through
the
legal
assistance
program
through
all
time
for
sale,
development,
District,
six
and
nine
seem
to
be
taking
up.
G
The
majority
of
the
projects
and
I
did
include
some
of
the
some
of
units
at
50
or
below
make
up
the
largest
portion
of
the
for
sale,
development
and
Rental
Gap
programs
and
then
for
housing.
Stabilization
program,
District,
six
and
nine
again,
really
are
the
ones
that
are
taking
up
the
majority
of
those
programs.
So
I
think
that
you
know
in
the
homeowner
assistance
program,
this
one
is
actually
spread
out
more
throughout
more
districts.
G
But
again
there
are
some
that
you
know
are
lacking,
especially
I
can't
remember
off
the
top
of
my
head,
but
the
bottom
right
hand,
corner
district
is
that
that
District
doesn't
have
as
many
and
District
8
obviously
does
not.
But
all
these
really
highlight
that
we
have
opportunity
to.
You
know:
expand
our
Outreach
whenever
we're
engaging
the
community
and
try
to
engage
different
areas
where
we
really
are
not
getting
as
many
applications
for
some
of
these
programs.
So
I
think
it's
important.
G
You
know
you
know,
there's
some
areas
that
have
higher
median
incomes
and
that's
a
factor,
but
there's
some
on
here
that
do
not
so
I
think
it's
important
to
note
that
you
know
how
we're
engaging
the
community
is
going
to
impact
who
we're
affecting
in
the
end
and
that's
all
I
have
for
the
program
and
expenditure
Updates
this
week
or
this
month.
B
B
A
Well,
if
it's
related.
J
This
would
be
your
moment,
it's
specifically
related
to
the
audit,
and
you
know
it
I
think
that
it
would
be
helpful
and
it's
not
going
to
happen
this
year,
since
you
know
what
it's
probably
approved
by
the:
u
r
a
board
and
it
accepted,
but
if
we
I
I,
don't
think
it
I
think
it
would
be
better
to
have
commitments.
J
J
P
Agreed,
that's
a
good
idea
mark.
Thank
you,
certainly
something
we
should
take
into
consideration
because
I
I
do
agree.
We
definitely
do
not
just
have
21
million
dollars
laying
around.
P
It
looks
like
this
announcement
slide
I.
Would
we
just
we
didn't
updated
for
this
month,
so
the
next
meeting
is
actually
August
4th
at
9am.
So
anyway,
Adrian
had
mentioned
that,
but
yeah
it'll
be
August
4th.
A
So
if
there
are
no
others,
then
we
will
see
everyone
on
the
4th
at
9,
00
A.M.
Unless
we
see
you
in
the
meantime
and
one
of
our
committees.
So
thank
you,
everyone
for
joining
us
and
if
we
have
a
motion
to
adjourn,
we
do
not
need
a
second
for
that
have
a
wonderful
summer
and
stay
safe
and
cool
out
there.
Everybody
bye.
