A
G
Thank
you,
erica
coleman,
hra
administrator,
so
at
our
meeting
on
october
12th
we
did
have
a
great
conversation
amongst
our
board
here
and
walked
line
by
line
of
the
proposed
changes
to
the
home
improvement
loan
program
and
specifically,
what
we
looked
at
was
the
loan
limit,
increasing
it
from
35
000
to
40,
000,
plus
up
to
an
additional
ten
thousand
dollars
for
accessibility,
improvements
for
cdbg
and
neighborhood.
G
We
also
looked
at
and
proposed
increasing
the
help
loan
amount
to
7
500.
G
G
The
loan
terms
we
brought
him
down
from
40
year
deferred
to
30-year
deferred
for
cdbg
in
neighborhood
and
for
help,
instead
of
it
being
a
40-year
deferred
loan.
It
is
forgiven
after
three
years
of
continued
occupancy,
considering
it's
for
emergency
purposes,
income
limits
I
misspoke.
At
the
last
meeting,
it
was
verified
that
household
size
that
income
is
adjusted
for
household
size,
so
80
percent
ami
are
below
for
cdbg,
80
ami
or
below.
G
G
G
For
that
program.
Asset
limit.
We
increase
to
fifty
thousand
dollars
asset
limit
for
all
three
programs,
but
it
does
exclude
deferred
compensation
and
one
vehicle
per
adult
in
the
household,
so
those
would
not
be
can
taken
into
consideration
when,
when
considering
assets,
we
are
removing
the
equity
match
that
is
currently
in
place.
G
So
the
equity
match
says
that
if
you
want
to
borrow
ten
thousand
dollars
to
do
work,
you
would
need
to
have
at
least
ten
thousand
dollars
of
your
home
of
equity
in
your
home,
and
the
question
that
was
answered
was
that
how
would
we
make
sure
to
secure
our
loans?
And
that
is
because
the
combined
loan
to
value
so
our
loan
and
any
other
debt
on
the
house
does
not
exceed
100
percent
loan
to
value
exclusions,
age,
55,
plus
or
on
a
fixed
income
as
a
primary
source
will
be
excluded
from
the
equity
limits.
G
G
They
would
have
to
be
referred
by
building
inspections,
environmental
health
or
have
a
red
flag
heating
in
our
electrical
system
by
a
utility
company,
so
that
would
be
contacting
the
hra
if
they
have
that
red
flagged
system.
That's
contacting
the
hra
and
saying
I
need
to
complete
this
and
or
contacting
environmental
health,
which
is
also
who
would
might
know
those
ahead
of
time,
and
so
with
those
changes.
G
We
would
like
to
collect
the
information
on
with
these
proposed
changes,
who
is
served?
How
are
they
being
served
and
the
results
of
that
accessibility
improvements,
the
pay
on
page
21
of
the
proposed
manual?
G
It's
the
permitted
accessibility
improvements
are
listed
there
and
then
one
of
the
things
was
to
clarify
whole
insurance,
not
to
be
confused
with
term
insurance
in
establishing
assets
and
then
just
increasing
our
relationships
and
advertising
with
other
community-based
entities
that
help
people
along
the
way
complete
the
application
referring
to
other
resources
and
other
information
like
that,
and
so
what
you
have
before.
G
You
are
the
updated
manual
and
guidelines
based
on
that
conversation
and
the
updated
chart
of
current
program
and
proposed
program
changes
based
on
that
conversation
agreement
and
I
can
stand
for
any
questions.
But
I
am
looking
to
a
motion
to
approve
this
tonight
and
bring
this
program
back
up.
A
Thank
you
for
your
heart.
Thank
you
for
your
hard
work
on
that
proposal.
Do
are
there
any
questions
for
staff?
Yes,
commissioner,
beloga.
F
Thank
you,
chair
lewis.
I
just
would
like
to
remind
viewers
that
we've
looked
at
this
quite
thoroughly
over
at
least
three
meetings.
F
I
think
and
and
grappled
with
all
of
the
issues,
and
it's
timely
that
we
are
moving
in
this
direction,
both
in
terms
of
reminding
ourselves
of
of
the
charge
that
we
have
as
an
hra,
but
also
in
terms
of
the
the
difficulty
of
people
who
are
working
hard
to
build
equity,
get
capital
basis
going
in
their
in
their
families,
and
that
tends
to
end
up
working
out
very
well
for
the
community,
as
well
as
for
the
family.
D
I
have
not
just
I
do
have
a
different
question,
though,
with
respect
to
the
equity
limits
of
30.
D
So
if
someone
bought
a
house
with
zero
financing,
zero
percent
down,
so
they
had
no
equity
in-
let's
say
2015.
D
My
sense
is
is
that
they
would
be
excluded
from
the
30
percent
excluded,
because
their
equity
position
was
greater
than
30
percent.
Just
due
to
the
rise
in
value
over
the
last
six
years,.
G
Thank
you,
chair
lewis
and
commissioner
beloga
could
be,
but
in
the
last
six
years
they
could
have
took
out
another
mortgage
and
they
might
not
have
the
same
amount
of
equity.
They
could
have
did
something
else,
but
if
it's
very
simple
that
maybe
in
2015,
they
bought
a
property
for
300
000
and
they
get
an
appraisal
now
mind.
Your
appraisals
are
about
a
year
behind.
They
get
an
appraisal
now
and
they've
been
making
regular
payments,
not
doubling
up
or
anything
like
that,
making
regular
payments
they
potentially
could
be
at
30
percent
or
30
000.
D
D
It
it
just
strikes
me
as
you
know
that
that
this
is
an
area
that
needs
some
further
discussion,
and
unfortunately
I
wasn't
here
for
the
last
two,
and
maybe
everybody
is
satisfied
with
that,
but
I
think
that
we've
had
a
significant
number
of
people
move
into
our
city
in
the
last
five
six
years,
particularly
in
the
starter
home
area,
and
those
are
the
people
who
were
really
trying
to
focus
this
to
you
know,
particular
you
know,
with
emphasis
on
the
criteria
of
income
and
making
these
funds
inaccessible
because
of
things
that
are
beyond
their
control
just
seems
to
be
problematic.
D
A
Are
there
any
other?
I
was
gonna,
commissioner
thorson.
A
If
you
have
a
suggestion
on
how
we
should
adjust
it,
the
one
thing
we
did
at
our
previous
meeting
was:
we
tried
to
be
very
specific
about.
We
wanted
what
we
wanted
to
see
in
the
program.
The
program
changes
that
we
wanted
to
see.
So,
commissioner,
baloga.
What
in
your
mind,
would
you
recommend
for
that?
A
Because
here
again
we
can
continue
to
discuss
it,
but
I
I
think
we
need
to
have
an
idea
of
what
we're
shooting
for
well,
if
you're
uncomfortable
with
that,
I'm
not
trying
to
put
you
on
the
spot,
I'm
just
trying
to
find
out.
How
would
you
what
would
you
have
a
suggestion
on
how
we
could
improve
that
or
change
that,
so
you
would
be
comfortable
with
it.
D
And-
and
I
I
don't
want
to
lead
the
ship
here,
you
know
I,
what
I
was
hoping
is
is
to
get
a
sense
of.
Was
there
discussion
on
it?
Yes,
and
was
everybody
else
comfortable
and
if
everybody
else
is
comfortable?
I
just
wanted
to
express
my
discomfort
with
that
item.
A
H
A
G
Thank
you,
chair
lewis,
commissioner
logan.
We
did
discuss
it
and
the
commissioners
felt
because
I
had
thrown
out
well,
maybe
40
the
commissioners
felt
40
was
too
high.
G
C
C
What
was
your
original
number
we
were
presented
with
as
twenty
percent
of
twenty
thousand
dollars?
Yes,
yes,
okay,
so
this
was,
you
could
call
it
a
significant
move.
I
know
that
for
myself
I
I
was
most
comfortable
with
the
you
know
the
30
limit.
It
does
still
feel
like
a
good
number.
C
I'm
now
questioning
the
30
000,
though,
which
doesn't
sound
as
much-
and
I
don't
know
if,
for
commissioner
beloga,
if
it's
really
the
percentage
or
if
it's
the
the
dollar
amount,
but
thirty
thousand
dollars
does
seem
pretty
low
and
what
was
staff's
thought
about
kind
of
thirty
twenty
percent.
You
know
twenty
thousand
thirty
percent.
You
know
having
that
them
correlate
in
that
way.
G
Thank
you,
chair
lewis,
commissioner
thorson.
It
was
just
continuity
of
numbers.
There
was
not
just
so.
There
wasn't
confusion.
You
know
there's
a
two.
Instead
of
saying
20,
40
000,
you
know
just
30
of
300
000
is
30
000,
I'm
sorry
it's
90
dollars,
so
it's
thirty
percent
or
thirty
thousand.
Whichever
is
greater.
So
it's
not.
Whichever
is
lesser,
whichever
is
greater.
So
if
you
have
thirty
percent
of
equity
in
your
three
thousand
three
hundred
thousand
dollar
home,
you
can't
go
over
30,
so
29
you
can't
go
over
it.
F
Thank
you,
chair
lewis,
one
of
the
things
that
I
believe
I
heard
commissioner
baloga
comment
about
was
an
inflationary
factor
and
we
are
talking
about
reviewing
this
every
other
year.
F
I'm
wondering
if
without
opening
up
a
can
of
worms,
if
it
would
be
appropriate
to
have
some
statement
somewhere,
I'm
not
sure
I'll
agree
with
this
myself,
but
the
the
concept
of
of
if
there
are
unusual
circumstances
like
we've,
recently
gone
through
the
impact
of
of
of
covid
coming
along,
and
we
do
have
some
precedent
for
making
adjustments
on
a
case-by-case
basis.
I
think
right.
G
A
delegation
to
the
hra
administrator
and
some
of
the
items
in
the
manual,
but
also
in
the
manual
it
states.
This
manual
is
subject
to
modification
or
amendment
at
any
time
to
ensure
that
the
provisions
contained
herein
conform
to
the
requirements
of
the
cdbg
program,
applicable
state
law
and
all
official
interpretation
thereof.
The
hra
may
also
make
other
changes
to
this
manual
at
any
time
to
update
dates
or
for
other
minor
updating.
This
manual
is
subject
to
review
and
updating
from
time
to
time
by
the
hra
board.
A
D
It's
a
point
of
clarification
and
I
think
a
like
just
went
on
here
so
30
percent
and
we're
talking
about
a
300
000
value
home.
So
that's
nine,
ninety
thousand
dollars,
which
is
greater
than
thirty
thousand
mm-hmm
yeah.
So
that
takes
my
concerns
on
that
one.
D
G
G
Yes,
that's
directly
addressing
some
of
the
concerns
by
the
board
about
elderly
and
our
aging
population
and
people
on
fixed
income
that
may
not
have
another
option
or
opportunity.
E
This
is
just
more
of
just
a
comment
number
one.
First
and
foremost,
thank
you
for
all
the
work
and
thanks
to
the
board
for
all
the
work.
I
know
we've
worked
a
long
time
on
this
and
I'm
gonna
bring
up
something
that
is
shows
my
ignorance
a
little
bit
here
with
the
interest
rate.
I
learned
something
new
this
weekend
that
there's
a
specific
culture,
the
muslim
culture
that
does
not
they
cannot
pay
interest.
E
So
I'm
just
curious
because
we've
talked
about
you
know
per
certain
exceptions,
and
I
understand
why
we
want
to
gain
interest
because
that
helps
pay
back
that
loan,
but
that
does
kind
of
exclude
a
specific
community.
So
is
there
a
way
that
we're
handling
that?
I
guess
since
I
I
do
know-
we
can
do
case
by
case
so
due
to
religious.
G
Thank
you,
chair
lewis,
and
commissioner
huhim.
No
and
part
of
that
is
the
religious
exclusions
are
not
in
there
and
it's
so
this.
These
programs,
as
proposed
the
only
one
that
is
sharia
compliant,
is
help,
and
so
the
one
of
the
things
that
staff.
So
my
myself,
as
well
as
mr
hartman
as
well
as
staff,
talked
about.
If
we
eliminate
interest,
what
do
we
do
for
all
of
the
people
that
have
previously
taken
out
loans?
G
A
A
I
know
commissioner
baloga
has
talked
about
a
refinement
of
the
language
for
the
exclusion,
but
I
would
like
to
bring
this
move
this
for
approval
tonight.
If
we
can
is
that
something
can
we
still
make
an
adjustment
administrator.
G
Yes,
thank
you,
chair
lewis.
It
would
actually
be
a
motion
to
approve
the
manual
and
the
guidelines
amending
the
language
to
for
clarity
for
borrowers,
age,
55
and
older,
being
exempt
from
property
equity
limits,
or
borrowers
earn
a
fixed
income
as
primary
source
of
income
being
exempt
from
property
equity
limits.
All.
A
F
Thank
you,
commissioner
olson,
given
the
fact
that
you've
thank
you
charleston,
given
the
fact
that
you've
referred
to
administrator
coleman
wording
and-
and
I
thought
it
was
very
clear
as
long
as
that's
in
the
record,
if
I
can
move
that
as
a
motion,
I
would
appreciate
doing
that.
A
A
Thank
you,
and
I
want
to
thank
all
of
the
commissioners
for
all
of
the
hard
work
they
did
on
this
and
also
administrator
coleman
and
all
of
her
staff.
I
think
what
we
and
I
think
the
end
product
was
really
good.
So
thank
you.
Everybody
now,
moving
on
to
item
number
5.2,
the
2022
final
hra
budget
and
tax
levy,
may
we
have
the
staff
report
please.
G
Thank
you,
chair
lewis,
erica
coleman,
hr
administrator
on
september
14th.
We
presented
the
preliminary
budget
to
the
hra
board
at
that
meeting,
with
the
levy
amount
set
at
the
maximum
dollar
amount
of
two
million:
seven
hundred
eighteen
thousand
six
hundred
eighty
three
dollars
for
2022,
which
is
up
from
two
million
six
hundred
fifty
four
dollars.
Five
hundred
and
thirty
two
dollars.
E
Thank
you
chair.
I
just
have
a
quick
question
of
why
baker
tilly
it
has
increased
from,
and
I'm
I'm
thinking
we
talked
about
this
before,
but
just
please
refresh
my
memory
from
200
000
to
five
hundred
thousand.
G
Absolutely
thank
you.
Chair
lewis,
commissioner
huhim
baker.
Tilly
has
increased
because
baker
tilly
is
being
heavily
dependent
upon
with
the
absence
of
an
economic
analyst
or
excuse
me,
hra
analyst
was
the
title:
I've
been
working
very
closely
with
baker
tilley
as
well
as
there's
been
a
lot
with
the.
G
It's
hia,
but
it's
also
the
aeon
deal
as
well
as
the
affordable,
housing
trust
fund.
The
city
took
out
bonds
for
that
and
with
covid
kind
of
impacted,
our
timeline,
and
so
there's
been
a
lot
of
restructuring
of
that
loan
with
the
bank
and
approvals
to
see
if
we
can
draw
down
later
than
december,
31
2021,
because
that
is
our
deadline
currently
and
so
there's
a
lot
of
things
with
baker
tilly,
but
with
just
the
increased
development
as
our
municipal
advisor
baker.
Tilley
is
why
we
increased
it.
G
What
we
have
typically
done
is
we
have
budgeted
at
200
000,
and
then
we
move
funds
and
adjust
at
the
end
of
the
year
this
year,
we're
just
proposing
the
amount
that's
closer
to
what
we
have
been
spending
without
adjusting
the
funds
later
on
which
we
might
still
do.
I
don't
want
you
to
think
you
know
not
saying
we
will,
but
we
might
so
please
be
prepared.
Thank.
E
A
There
any
other
questions
for
staff
for
administrator
coleman.
If
not,
we
would
yes,
commissioner
olson.
F
Thanks
chair
lewis,
just
a
comment:
I
personally
have
been
impressed
with
the
service
that
we've
gotten
from
baker
tilley
and
we
there's
no
question
that
in
the
last
several
years
this
bloomington
hra
has
gone
through
some
some
changes
in
direction.
You
mentioned
the
oho
housing
ordinance
and
and
just
that
one
move
with
with
aeon
was
a
real
coup.
F
I
think
in
terms
of
us
being
able
to
get
a
lot
of
affordable
housing
in
one
fell
swoop,
and
there
was
a
lot
of
time
a
lot
of
action
required
in
a
short
amount
of
time.
So
I
don't
know
if
big
overtime
was
built
into
that,
maybe
or
not,
but
I'm
I'm
impressed
with
baker
tilly
and-
and
I
think
they've
served
us
well.
A
C
A
A
A
A
A
G
G
F
You
I
I
move
the
motion
as
stated.
A
A
second
I
apologize,
that's
okay,
I
don't
know.
Can
I
second
emotion
not
here
in
a
second,
we
won't
be
able
to
bring
it
up
for
a
vote.
C
A
A
All
right,
I
think,
that's
good.
That
will
be
the
decision
by
council,
so
it
has
been
moved
by
commissioner
olson
with
the
second
by
commissioner
thorson,
to
approve
the
resolution
of
proving
memorandum
to
the
city
of
bloomington,
mayor
city,
council
and
city
manager,
recommending
changes
to
the
composition
of
the
hra
board
of
commissioners
of
the
hra.
A
D
D
I
I
think
that
if
you
watch
the
city
council
meeting
last
night,
there
was
a
discussion
about
whether
or
not
council
members
as
non-voting
members
is
appropriate,
and
while
there
was
limited
discussion
on
that,
I
think
it's
an
item
that
needs
further
discussion
by
the
council.
But
I
cannot
support
that
because
I
wouldn't
either
as
a
commissioner
or
a
council
member.
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
commissioner
bologna.
I
appreciate
your
comments.
Are
there
any
other?
Yes,
administrator
coleman.
G
Thank
you,
chair
lewis.
I
would
like
to
add
that
the
port
authority
does
have
the
seat
for
a
council
member
and
the
mayor.
They
are
seven
member
commission
and
therefore
I
think
it
would
be
something
that
could
be
discussed
that
increasing
to
seven
members.
We
could
essentially
create
a
council
member
seat,
thereby
they
would
be
a
commissioner,
but
the
term
would
be
the
term
of
a
council
member
instead
of
what
it
is
currently
where
we
have.
The
terms
are
all
five
years
and
they
may
be
filled
by
a
council
member.
G
Just
like
increasing
to
seven
members.
There
is
a
requirement
in
state
statute
that
we
must
fill
the
seat
with
a
resident
that
participates
in
the
housing
choice,
voucher
program.
We
could
change
the
bylaws
do
the
same
thing
after
increasing
to
seven
members
where
we
would
have
five
resident
members,
a
member
that
has
received
or
is
receiving
programs
through
the
hra
and
a
council
member
seat.
That
would
be
the
term
of
the
council
members
elected
office.
D
And-
and
that
is
the
term
of
the
council-
members
representation
john
needed
to
go
off
when
he
his
term
expired,
and
I
will
go
off
the
hra
when
my
term
expires
so
know.
It
is
concurrent
with
the
appointed
members
term
on
council.
G
D
B
G
In
succession
well,
therefore,
thereby
it
has
ended
up
being
that
way,
but
in
the
bylaws
it's
not
written.
That
way
is
what
I'm
saying
and
I'm
saying
write
it
that
way.
If
we
move
to
seven
members
where
it's
a
council
member
seat
right
now,
we
don't
have
council
member
seats,
we've
just
been
filling
them
with
council
members.
A
A
C
Baloga,
so
the
the
city
council
every
year
has
sort
of
the
annual
meeting
where
they
report
people
to
different
commissions
and
boards,
and
so
on.
Do
they
each
year
choose
the
person
who
will
serve
currently
on
the
hra?
C
Yes,
so
in
theory
they
could
change
it
you
a
year
ago,
you
might
have
said
you
know
I
no
longer
interested
in
serving
on
the
hra
board.
They
they'd
pick
another
or
the
council
could
have
just
picked
another
council
member
to
serve
on
the
hra
board.
A
Thank
you
for
the
clarification
yes
administrator
coleman.
G
Thank
you,
chair
lewis.
I
just
had
one
last
thing
because
it's
not
in
the
bylaws
and
because
it's
not
written
excuse
me
written
as
a
council
member's
seat.
We
advertise
two
seats
to
the
public,
and
so
residents
have
applied
under
the
understanding
that
there
are
two
seats
available,
that
they
could
apply
for,
not
that
there's
a
one
seat
available
in
a
council
member's
seat.
So
that's
the
other
thing
that
I'm
looking
at
is
that.
How
are
we
communicating
that
to
the
public
on
what's
actually
available.
F
Thank
you,
chair
lewis,
terms
of
the
process.
This
is
a
memo
to
the
mayor
city,
council,
city
manager,
indicating
a
change
that
two
changes
actually
that
we
we
would
propose
to
them
that
they
would
have
to
ultimately
rule
on
one
way
or
the
other.
F
When
a
while
ago,
I
was
thinking
that
it
would
be
good,
maybe
to
separate
out
the
two,
because
they
are,
one
is
actually
referring
to
asking
our
lobbyists
to
present
this
to
the
legislature,
and
the
other
one
is
is
an
in-city
kind
of
thing,
but
I
think
process-wise.
F
To
to
consider,
and-
and
I
don't
know
to
what
extent
they
may
read
our
minutes
about
the
the
reasons
that
we
are
proposing
these,
but
I
I
would
hope
that
the
council
would
ask
questions
of
us
or
ask
somehow
to
get
input
about
why
we
are
saying
this
in
terms
of
the
first
one.
F
I
have
long
been
concerned
about
the
fact
that
the
hra
traditionally
does
not
have
and
may
never
have
in
recent
time,
a
voice
from
the
people
that
we
are
primarily
serving
and-
and
I
we've
we've
talked
a
lot
about
affordable
housing.
F
We
also,
and
I'm
not
going
to
put
or
put
salt
in
the
gas
tank
or
whatever
this
is,
but
I
think
that
it
would
be
good
for
us.
I
think
we've
had
business
input,
whether
or
not
it's
the
smaller
businesses
or
or
the
larger
businesses
that
we
we
interact
with
them
a
lot
when
when
they
come
forward
with
a
proposal,
but
in
terms
of
the
redevelopment
of
the
business
community
in
aging
structures,
that's
something
that
I
think
would
we
need
to
develop
a
process
for
getting
input
from
them
as
well.
F
So
back
to
the
main
issue,
I'm
saying
here
is
that
I
think
we
are.
We
are
not.
We
are
asking
for
the
the
council
to
put
this
on
their
discussion
agenda
and
I'd.
If
the
the
letter,
I
I
think,
probably
appropriately,
assumes
that
once
it's
in
their
their
court,
then
they
decide
how
they
gather
information
about
it.
F
And
so
I'm
I'm
in
support
of
doing
this,
I
I
like
the
idea
that
that
you
mentioned
manager
coleman
about
if
we
do
move
to
seven,
that
we
would
end
up
having
the
opportunity
to
designate
one
as
a
council
member
and
that's,
I
don't
believe,
that's
in
the
memo.
F
And
that's
just
one
example:
that's
major
in
terms
of
you
know
the
council
deciding
what
is
hr
up
to
on
with
this.
You
know,
so
I
I
think
and
council
member
beloga
is
a
long
time,
city,
council,
member
as
well,
can
you
and
currently
can
you?
D
I
I
won't
try
to
go
there,
I
mean,
but
while
I
have
the
floor
verna
thank
you
for
putting
on
the
bylaws
and
you'll
see
that
in
reading
item
three,
we
are
complying
with
the
bylaws.
G
G
D
Small
word
you
said
okay,
but
on
the
flip
side
of
that
is,
is
that
if
you
are
really
promoting
this,
the
second
paragraph
about
a
dedicated
liaison
from
the
console,
you
don't
define
what
their
role
is,
and
I
presume
it's
non-voting.
D
G
A
And
I
would
like
to
say
when
I
read
this,
I
view.
Ultimately,
I
think
the
best
thing
that
could
happen
would
be
the
ability
to
expand
us
to
seven
members.
I
look
at
the
I
want
to
say
the
item
regarding
the
city
council,
member
being
a
the
designated
liaison.
I
see
that
more
as
an
interim
solution
in
order
to
allow
two
resident
members
rather
than
just
one
resident
member,
but
you
know
that
that
is
just
the
way
I'm
looking
at
it.
A
I'm
looking
at
that
as
we
do
that,
I'm
I'm
hoping
that
we
can
get
on
the
legislative
agenda
and
I
don't
see
necessarily
why
going
to
seven
members
should
be
a
problem
and
then
I
think
that
will
take
care
of.
We
would
have
a
voting.
You
could
have
a
voting
council
member
and
that
would
take
care
of
part
of
our
issue.
H
I
F
Thank
you,
chair
lewis,
and
I
I
want
to
be
very
clear
that
regarding
a
council
member,
I
you
know
council
members
vote
on
things
that
we
vote
on
and
so
there's
there's
a
double
vote
there
in
a
sense.
But
if
it
if,
if
there
are
seven
members,
then
that's
diluted
some
but
irregardless
or
regardless
of
that.
F
A
significant
engagement
with
the
council
at
our
meetings
in
terms
of
of
answers
that
council
member
commissioner
beloga
has
has
offered
about
the
council,
is
currently
doing
this
or
currently
doing
that
or
looking
into
this,
and,
and
so
I,
I
think,
the
rewording
of
of
the
of
the.
In
fact,
I
guess
I
would
recommend
that
that
it
includes
something
about.
F
G
A
I
was
just
going
to
add,
suggest
that
we
table
this
item
until
you
can
make
those
adjustments.
Can
I
we
move
to
table
correct,
there's.
A
All
right
can
we
have
the
roll
call
vote.
C
C
I
think
it
is
important
to
to
send
to
the
council
our
our
interest
in
seeing
the
board
expand
and
get
on
that
legislative
agenda.
It
sounds
like
the
council
is
already
discussing
different
roles
and
liaison
roles,
and
so
on.
This
is
that
the
second
one
is
not
something
I
felt
super
strongly
about.
I
see
positives
and
negatives
for
each
and,
as
we
talk
about,
you
know
wanting
to
make
sure
that
the
council
members
engaged
well.
The
best
way
to
engage
them
might
be.
C
You
know
a
voting
role,
but
that's
for
further
discussion,
so
I
would,
I
would
suggest
we
just
move
along
with
the
memo
with
just
the
first
bullet
point.
A
A
Commitment
second
amendment,
all
right:
yes,
commissioner
beloga,
oh.
D
A
We're
over
moving
so
so.
G
A
Correct
all
right,
so,
commissioner,
olson
did
you
move
it
originally.
F
Yes,
I
moved
originally,
and
is
there
a
process?
Roberts
accepts
about
with
withdrawing
emotion
by
the
maker?
Hey
that
that's
what
I
would
do
I'd
like
to
withdraw
my
motion
to
approve
the
motion
that
was
in
front
of
us
so.
A
C
All
right
and
therefore
I
would
make
a
motion
to
send
the
memo
to
the
city
council,
as
drafted
with
only
the
full
first
bullet
point
regarding
the
legislative
agenda
and
removing
the
bullet
point.
Regarding
the
council
role
on
the
commission.
A
I
will
now
open
it
up
for
discussion,
commissioner
baloga.
D
D
And
I
I
think
I
would
leave
that
to
the
maker
of
the
motion
as
to
what
he
wanted
to
do
with
that.
C
Yes
remove
the
motion
would
include
removing
the
my
motion
would
include
removing
the
items
in
the
last
paragraph
that
have
to
do
with
the
second
bullet
point.
C
A
Hearing
none
there's
motion
on
the
floor
to
approve
the
resolution
of
the
memorandum
to
the
city
of
bloomington,
mayor
city,
council
and
city
manager
recommending
changes
to
the
composition
of
the
hra
board
of
commissioners
with
only
item
one
may
we
have
the
roll
call
vote.
Please.
F
G
Coleman,
so
I
have
a
question
to
the
board.
I
would
like
some
direction
because
we
have
four
applications
for
two
seats
that
were
advertised.
Is
there
any
recommendation
or
conversation
with
the
board
about
how
to
go
about
those
applications,
because
the
city
council
changed
the
process
to
include
that
applications
would
be
received
and
then
interviews
would
be
held,
and
the
hra
is
at
the
position
of
being
able
to
make
recommendations
administrator
chair,
as
well
as
other
staff,
to
interview
those
four
applicants
and
then
make
recommendations
to
fill
the
two
vacancies
with
this
memo.
G
C
F
Thank
you
just
a
clarification
manager
coleman.
What
what
what's
the
process
would
it
be
that
we
would
do
a
ranking
or
that
the
manager
and
the
chair
of
the
of
the
hra
would
do
that.
G
So
there
is
a
committee
to
interview
that
includes
the
chair
of
the
hra
myself,
as
well
as
other
members
of
city
staff
and
or
board
liaisons
to
interview
all
of
the
candidates.
Thank.
F
A
G
G
Attached
are
the
draft
revisions
for
the
policy
and
approval
process
that
are
in
city
legal
review
and
going
before
the
city
council
for
adoption
on
november
15
2021
after
city
council
adoption,
the
policy
and
approval
process
will
come
before
the
hra
board
for
adoption,
and
so
what
is
attached
is
the
policy
draft
revision,
which
was
reviewed
and
revised
by
city
staff,
hra
staff
city,
the
cfo
bond
council,
general
counsel
for
the
hra
and
legal
counsel
for
the
city.
G
So
the
policy
reviewing
that
and
revising
it
to
make
clear
the
roles
that
the
hra
and
or
the
city
have
that
this
is
the
city's
policy
that
the
hra
has
a
responsibility
of
administering
components
of
it,
as
well
as
a
clear
indication
of
the
approval
process,
so
adding
an
extra
document
that
outlines
the
approval
process
for
applicants
as
well
as
property
standards.
G
The
property
standards
are
the
standards
in
which
environmental,
health,
building
and
inspections
and
planning
have
reviewed
and
put
together
and
commented
on
that,
if
any
financing
is
going
into
a
hia
project
that
these
are
the
minimum
standards
in
which
they
must
abide
by.
So
I
wanted
to
because
this
is
a
lot
I
wanted
to
bring
it
before
you
just
so.
You
have
to
review.
D
I
go
by
thorson
too,
I
know
now.
I've
got
you
you're
one
person.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Do
we
have
a
redline
copy,
I'm
curious
as
to
what's
changed.
G
Number
one
is
laying
out
responsibility
of
the
hra,
so
that
was
not
previously
written
that
way
it
was
written
as
authority,
but
it's
called
out
as
responsibility.
G
So
number
three
excuse
me
3.01
and
then
eligible
uses
did
not
change
and
then
under
number
section,
5
hia
approval
criteria,
some
of
the
things
that
changed
in
here
were
one
under
e,
that
20
years
or
less
was
always
in
there.
G
Also
saying
that
the
city
has
the
sole
discretion
to
determine
the
sources
of
financing
and
sources
other
than
issuing
bonds
may
be
used.
Those
are
all
changes
that
allow
for
a
little
bit
more
flexibility.
G
One
of
the
other
big
changes
was
that
allowing
construction
financing
temporary
construction
financing
that
was
not
previously
allowed
under
the
hia
policy,
which
made
it
a
little
bit
difficult
for
associations
and
then
65.
G
We
increased
the
minimum
percentage
from
60.
from
60
of
all
property
owners
in
the
petition
of
support
to
apply
for
the
hia
financing
to
65
percent,
and
then
the
last
things
are
the
increase
in
the
application
fee.
The
application
fee
was
500,
all
the
other
application
fees
for
affordable
housing,
trust
fund
tiff
is
five
thousand
dollars,
and
so
the
cfo
did
ask
for
continuity,
and
so
there's
an
increase
to
five
thousand
dollars
application
fee
and
a
fifteen
thousand
dollar
deposit
to
cover
city
incurred
fees,
a
city
and
or
hra
incurred
fees.
G
Previously
it
was
7,
500
or
1
of
the
total
project
cost
so
for
continuity.
That
changed
and
then
lastly,
is
item
j,
more
detailed
information
about
the
requirements
of
a
third
party,
independent
third
party.
G
D
An
additional
item
saying
something
about
you
know:
there's
there's
the
town
home
association
that
has
applied
for
hia
that
has
been
rejected
and
continues
to
seek
definitive
reasons
and
understanding
why
they
were
rejected,
and-
and
it
really
is,
that
the
amount
of
the
loan
exceeds
the
value
of
the
you
know,
economic
value
of
the
properties
and
there's
no
clarity.
Resolution
in
this
document
to
that
set
of
circumstances,
which
may
be
a
one-time,
unique
set
of
circumstances,
at
least
hopefully
it
is,
is-
is
that
worthy
of
adding
to
this?
G
We
have
thought
about
it
and
talked
about
it,
so
one
I
have
definitely
reached
out
to
that
association
to
request
a
meeting
with
the
owners
where
there
was
a
letter
that
was
sent.
We
don't
know,
I
don't
know,
excuse
me,
I've
been
here
a
year.
I
don't
know
where
that
letter
went
if
all
the
owners
got
that
letter
and
understood
what
the
basis
was
and
there
have
been
new
owners.
G
Secondly,
they
are
more
than
eligible
to
apply
under
the
if
approved,
revised,
hia
program
and
policy.
Three
there
are
are
alternatives
that
the
city
would
consider
outside
of
the
direct
proposed
fix
that
that
association
has
so
there's
both
things
happening,
we're
trying
to
reach
out
and
contact
and
talk
to
the
owners
and
just
say,
hey.
G
F
Yes,
commissioner,
also
thank
you.
Manager,
coleman
is
this.
This
is
a
work
in
progress
that
you
said,
and
so
what
is
the
timeline
that
is
anticipated
or
hoped
for.
G
A
C
C
What's
what's
the
I
mean.
Would
they
have
to
go
back
to
council?
Is
council
the
final,
the
final
say
on
it,
in
which
case
shouldn't
the
hra
board,
see
it
first
and
then
go
to
council,
so
the
council
can
take
our
recommendation
into
consideration.
Thank
you.
G
Thank
you,
chair
lewis,
commissioner
thorson,
so
I
wanted
to
bring
it
before
the
hra
board
because
the
hra
administers
it,
but
it
is
a
silly
city
policy
and
the
authority
granted
by
the
state
statute
is
with
the
city
of
bloomington.
So
when
this
policy
was
approved
previously
it
came
before
the
hra
board,
but
it
was
approved
by
the
city,
correct
brian,
or
was
it
approved
by
hra?
It.
J
G
Which
was
a
part
of
some
of
these
revisions
was
to
better
understand
whose
role
is
where
and
so
are
there
any
recommendations?
This
was
a
part
of
the
reason
I
wanted
to
get
it
before
you,
because
do
you
have
any
thoughts
or
recommendations
or
ideas
or
things
that
you
would
like,
incorporated
or
seen
or
better
clarified.
C
Again
I'll
just
comment
that
it
seems
backwards
to
me-
and
this
has
been
presented
to
us
tonight
as
a
discussion
item-
and
you
know,
there's
potential
for
the
council
to
to
take
a
direction
that
really
finalizes
it
without
her
input.
So
I
just
make
the
comment.
That
seems
a
bit
awkward
yeah.
A
Okay-
and
I
would
say
it's
a
fairly
tight
timeline,
I
guess
too,
as
well
reviewing
this
and
then
making
comments
it
would,
it
would
feel
like
we
should
make
comments
and
then
have
another
opportunity
to
see
it
and
then
have
it
go
to
console.
So
I
feel
like
the
timeline
like
we
missed
a
piece.
H
A
And
I
understand
why
it's
been
done
the
way
it
has,
but
I
do
feel
like
any
comments
we
made
tonight
would
be.
I
don't
know
how
much
everyone's
had
to
review
it.
G
So
I
would
say
this
one
has
been
and
mr
hartman
can
chime
in
because
he's
been
working
on
it.
This
one
has
been
a
lot
because
staff
was
working
on
it
before
I
got
here
and
it
really
came
down
to
city,
legal
and
city
finance
on
what
they
wanted
to
see
and
and
what
they
understood
and
what
they
knew
about
other
things
that
it
impacted
with
the
city.
So
I
think
this
one
has
been
a
really
interesting
process.
A
Mr
hartman,
can
I
ask
you,
as
far
as
determining
what
the
hra
the
administration
that
we
do
is
that
what
staff
has
been
working
on?
I
mean
as
far
as
because
now
this
document
is
basically
outlining
our
administration.
Is
that
what
you've
been
working
on
and.
J
Madam
chair
commissioners,
yeah,
yes,
that
in
a
little
bit
more,
you
know
we
have.
This
was
originally
adopted,
I
believe
in
2014
as
a
policy,
the
city
council
had
requested
the
hra
work
and
adopt
an
hi
or
propose
an
hi
policy
for
their
adoption.
J
Prior
to
that,
and
we
completed
one
project-
the
sutton
place,
2
townhome
project-
maybe
remember
that
back
in
2018.,
we
learned
a
lot
through
that
process
and
we
sat
with
city,
legal
finance
and
baker,
tilly
and
others
hra
council
and
determined
that
we
should
really
take
a
strong
look
at
this
to
make
some
revisions
and
that
process
has,
you
know,
took
quite
a
bit
of
time,
and
this
is
the
final
product
of
that
process,
and
it
was
really
through
the
efforts
of
administrator
coleman
to
kind
of
push
it
through
and
get
us
to
this
point
and
appreciate
that
very
much.
G
I
did
miss
one
thing:
it
was
heavy
on
staff
and
there
was
a
lot
that
staff
needed
to
administer
and
with
some
of
these
changes,
we
are
requiring
that
an
association
have
a
independent,
dedicated
third
party
project
manager.
G
That
was
something
that
hra
staff
had
to
bear,
and
it
was
quite
a
bit
and
now,
with
these
changes,
removing
some
of
that
heavy
lift
off
of
the
hra
staff
to
someone
that
is
specialized
in
that
area
to
work
dedicated
on
that
project,
because
the
hra
staff
could
have
more
than
one
project
of
hia
at
a
time
as
well
as
other
staff
do
other
duties.
So
that
is
also
a
big
change
here.
F
I
don't,
I
don't
want
to
micromanage,
and
I
can't
I
don't
think
we
as
a
group
can-
and
so
it
sounds
to
me
like,
like
the
proper
staff
across
several
organizations,
including
hra
staff,
have
had
input
into
this,
for
some
time
are
responding
to
experiences
that
that
suggested
changes
that
we
are
now
in
the
process
of
getting
finalized
for
this
time
around.
F
The
part
that
that
puzzles
me
is
that
our
we
are
responsible
for
reviewing
applications
and
making
recommendations
to
the
city
council
on
a
per-project
basis.
So
it's
like.
We
are
the
ones
who
are
going
to
be
applying
the
policy
and
are
we
the
only
ones
that
can
move
it
forward?
A
project
forward.
I
I
G
G
I
F
G
F
And
I
don't
know
that
it
means
anything
other,
but
if
the
council
adopts
normally
this,
as
commissioner
thorson
mentioned
it's
backwards,
because
normally
we
make
a
recommendation
to
the
city
and
then
they
respond
and
and
it's
a
done
deal
because
they
have
more
power
than
we
do.
You
know
and
that's
appropriate,
so
the
adoption
is
done.
Why
would
it
come
back
to
us,
except
as
information.
G
So
that
is
me
trying
and
probably
the
execution
is
off
when
I
looked
at
this
before
there
was
nothing
that
said
the
there
was
like
there
was
no
resolution.
That
said,
the
hra
approved
this
policy.
What
I,
what
I
was
able
to
see
was
the
policy
was
proposed
with
a
demonstration
project,
so
it
wasn't
the
policy
by
itself.
A
C
We
should
be
if
nothing
else,
a
policy
board
and
we
should
approve
policy
before
it
goes
forward
and
when
it's
happened
in
the
past,
it's
made
me
very
uncomfortable
that
when
we
go
through
this
kind
of
backwards
process
here-
and
so
I
I
would
recommend
that
that
we
were
in
hopes
that
we
could
finalize
our
recommendation
at
our
next
meeting
and
have
it
go
on
to
council
and
I'm
just
wondering
what
the
timing
issue
would
be
there,
because
this
is
backwards.
C
G
I
would
have
to
check
with
the
cfo
the
city
manager
and
the
executive
leadership
team,
because
this
is
something
that
is
being
asked
has
been
asked
for
and
followed
and
with
the
budgetary
process
and
the
council's
agenda
that's
already
set.
I
don't
know
what
the
implications
would
be
if
it
doesn't
go
forward,
as
it
is
already
planned
on
the
agenda
next
monday.
A
And
I
do
have
a
question
for
administrator
coleman,
even
if
it
did
come
before
us
and
we
for
whatever
reason
made
changes
to
it
or
suggested
changes
to
it.
Ours
would
just
simply
be
a
recommendation
correct
when
it
went
to
console
they
would.
A
Could
recommend
changes
that
we
if
we
wanted
them,
but
we
would
not
be
able
to
set
policy,
because
that
would
be
done
by
the
council
on
this
particular
program
that
it's
a
city
program,
so
they
said
policy,
so
I
understand
we're
being
asked
to
review
it,
but
we
don't.
We
essentially
don't
approve
it.
Yes,
commissioner,
olsen.
F
Thank
you,
chair
lewis.
I
want
to
follow
up
on
what
commissioner
thorson
said
in
terms
of
us
being
a
policy
committee,
a
commission
body
and-
and
so
this
really
fits
into
identity-
that
we've
talked
about
for
years,
and
that
is
to
what
extent
do
we
have
authority
and
to
what
extent
do
we
not?
F
F
F
This,
like
you,
said
for
years,
would
end
up
having
a
study
session
with
us
and
say
this
is
the
big
framework
that
we
are
looking
at
and
we
want
you
to
be
aware
and
agree
with
with
that
direction
as
we
go
forward,
not
that
we
we
can
stop
the
whole
thing,
because
obviously
the
city
council
is
is
part
of
that
process
too.
But
it's
just
another
example
of
where.
F
We're
we're
not
involved
in
the
processes
in
meaningful
ways
until
it's
too
late.
A
I
I
think
the
one
word
I
put
I
wrote
down
as
as
commissioner
olson
was
talking.
We
don't
we're
not
always
given
the
opportunity
to
put
our
input
in
before
it
goes
to
the
second
level
like
it
goes
to
the
console
in
this
item.
I
can
understand
city
program,
they
view
it
as
their
decision.
A
It
does
affect
the
hra
and
because
of
that,
it
does
feel
like
it's
a
little
backwards,
because
it's
like
okay,
you
can
read
this,
but
then
the
city
council
will
approve
it
and
if
you
it'll
come
back
to
us-
and
we
may
not
agree
with
everything
that
they
have
approved,
but
I
think
it
does
come
down
to
just
getting
the
hra's
input.
I
guess
this
has
kind
of
gone
to
a
slightly
higher
different
level.
A
What
I'm
discussing
now,
but
what
commissioner
olsen
said
there
are
times
when
it
feels
like
we're
not
being
asked
what
we
feel
is
appropriate
as
important
as
far
as
like
a
program
coming
through
and
then
somewhere
down
the
line,
we're
asked
to
approve
it
or
we're
asked
to
okay.
This
is
what
you
have
now.
You
can
change
it.
A
It's
simple,
as
I
can
say,
just
no
one
asks
what
we
think
and
I
know
that's,
not
necessarily
the
administration
or
your
staff,
but
that's
what
it
sometimes
feels
like
commissioner,
beloga
or
thorson
as
I'm
calling.
D
Also
known,
as
you
know,
one
of
the
things
that
in
thinking
about
this
and
and
we've
done
precious
few
of
these-
so
I
may
be
off
course
on
this,
but
the
original
ones
that
we
have
done
were
then
assessed
to
the
individual
property
owners,
and
that
is
no
longer
what
I
see.
D
G
So
that
is
still
in
there
and
it's
called
out
where
the
association
has
to
propose
how
they
want
to
split
that
up
amongst
the
property
owner.
So
it's
still
in
there
because
that's
how
it
works
with
an
hia.
G
I
J
Madam
chair,
commissioner
beloga
just
for
a
point
of
clarification.
The
way
that
the
hia
is
financially
structured
is
that
the
city
provides
the
capital
up
front
for
the
project,
either
through
a
bond
issuance.
D
G
D
A
F
I'm
wondering
if
it
would
be
productive
and
maybe
timely,
relatively
soon
to
request
the
city
manager
and
mayor,
for
example,
to
spend
some
time
with
us
talking
about
how
they
perceive
the
hra
in
terms
of
the
role
in
the
overall
thing
and
how
we
fit
into
the
the
huge
operation.
That
is
a
city
government.
F
F
And
it
might
be
that
that
I
believe
that
the
hra
has
by
statute
more
authority
than
than
what
the
city
seems
to
be
giving
us.
But
I
I'm
open
to
how
that
would
shake
out.
But
I
think
it
would
be
helpful
if,
because
the
mayor
and
the
and
the
city
manager
are
are
so
instrumental
in
how
operations
happen,
that
20
minutes
or
something
that
they
do,
a
presentation
in
some
dialogue
or
whatever.
G
So
dialogue,
so,
commissioner
olson,
I
will
say
from
my
limited
time
here
my
understanding.
My
perception
is
that
one,
the
hra
is
a
separate
entity
right
and
has
operated
as
such
with
the
passage
and
the
adoption
of
the
oho
and
the
affordable
housing
trust
fund
is
where
a
lot
of
this
has
started
to
be
created
where
it's.
G
Where
is
the
hra's
role,
when
the
hra
operated
as
a
completely
separate
entity
over
the
programs
that
we're
still
over,
and
we
still
do
there
wasn't
as
much
confusion
now
with
the
oh
being
a
city
ordinance,
but
the
the
administration
of
it's
with
this
the
hra
and
who
makes
what?
Who
says
what
who
that's
where
I
think
this
is
starting
to
come
in
because
and
I'm
hearing
the
same
thing
with
hia,
and
so
I
think
this
is
fairly
newer
and
more
of
an
understanding
as
the
city
is
growing.
G
Where
do
we
all
fit
and
how
do
we
all
do
it?
How
do
we
do
development,
and
this
is
a
development?
How
do
we
do
development,
which
is
an
assessment
that
will
be
coming?
That
includes
the
hra,
the
port
authority,
because
they
have
there's
some
questions
there
too,
and
the
city.
How
do
we
do
development?
And
I
think
that
a
part
of
that
assessment
will
be
better
defining
roles
and
understanding
and
bringing
that
information
back.
F
Thank
you,
manager,
coleman,
that's
well
stated
in
terms
of
what
I
feel
is
is
a
beginning
to
better
understanding
of
roles,
and
so,
if,
if
the
city,
manager
and
mayor
or
whoever
can
come
I'd
like
to
hear
it,
I
have
a
lot
of
respect
for
you
and
your
knowledge
and
and
how
you're
doing
things
and
so
forth.
F
So
it's
not
that,
but
I
think
we
need
to
hear
it
from
the
people
who
are
making
those
big
decisions
on
behalf
of
the
city
not
being
aware
of
what
you
just
said
and
and
if
there
are
some
ways
that
are
reasonable
in
terms
of
time
expenditure
and
so
forth
that
we
can
be
involved
in
a
process
such
as
the
one
we're
talking
about
right
now,
then
I
think
you
know,
and
maybe
it's
not
the
whole
commission.
F
Maybe
it's
you
know
it's
like
at
one
point
we
weren't
involved
in
in
any
way
in
selecting
the
new
administrator
who
you
now
are,
and
I
think
that
really
I
don't
know
what
the
right
word
is,
but
it
it
didn't
feel
good
at
all.
F
Yeah
I
mean
if
we're,
if
we're
going
to
be
working
with
somebody
on
such
a
regular
basis
as
the
hra
administrator
shouldn't,
we
have
some
input
into
the
kind
of
qualities
that
we're
looking
for.
You
know
way
back
at
that
stage
and
I
think
there's
been
some
improvement
with
that,
but
that's
that's
not
another
example
of
of
what
I
refer
to
as
an
identity
issue.
Okay,
well,.
A
E
Thank
you
chair.
I
just
want
to
kind
of
summarize
kind
of
what
I've
heard
and
what
I
kind
of.
I
guess
more
of
what
I
feel
and
I
I
agree
with
people
on
the
fact
that
it
would
it
would
be
nice
to.
I
think
it
helps
the
city
council
too,
when
we
recommend
something
I
do
think
that
they
take
the
hra
board
and
the
hra
staff
in
their
recommendations
very
seriously,
and
I
mean
that
is
why
we
have
boards
and
commissions
right.
E
So
I
do
think
that,
just
in
the
future
that
we
can
you
know
it's
not
saying
that
we're
approving
it
we're
just
to
have
that
recommendation.
I
don't
think
anybody
right
now
feels
that
we
can.
We've
had
that
time
to
make
that
recommendation,
and
I
do
think
that's
just
the
important
part
of
the
process-
that's
missing
and
that's
kind
of
what
I'm
hearing.
E
So
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
summarize
maybe,
and
hopefully
we
can
now
move
on,
but
just
just
state
that
I
do
think
our
recommendation
does
have
impact
and
and
also
on
that,
just
to
quickly
say
that
then
I
do
feel
like.
Then
we
have
that
opportunity
to
attend
the
council
meeting
and
show
our
support
as
well
in
person
and
or
via.
You
know,
online
and
stuff,
like
that.
I
think
that
that's
very
important
as
well,
so
I
do
appreciate
this
information
ahead
of
time.
A
A
And
as
far
as
commissioner
olson's
comments,
maybe
down
the
road,
we
could
do
some
kind
of
a
study
session
where
we
could
have
more
people
from
the
city,
whether
it's
the
city
manager
or
the
mayor,
and
we
could
sit
down
in
a
study
session
and
talk,
and
you
know
kind
of
find
out
where
we
all
fit,
because
I
think
everybody
has
their
own
ideas
where
we
fit
and
I
find
as
a
board.
We
become
much
more
active
and
because
of
that,
we're
now
what
we
want
to
be
more
involved.
A
D
So
in
hearing
all
the
comments
which
I
concur
with,
would
it
be
appropriate
for
me?
Would
it
be
the
will
of
this
commission
to
ask
consul
on
the
meeting
of
next
monday
to
table
this
item
to
allow
for
further
review
by
the
hra
board
of
commissioners
so
that
we
can
provide
a
recommendation
to
the
city
council
at
that
time?.
C
A
G
A
Right
that
time,
it's
been
a
long
night
guys.
Is
there
any
more
discussion
on
this
item?
I
think
I
think
commissioner
baloga
has
just
taken
care
of
everything.
I
love
it.
A
G
Thank
you,
chair
lewis,
annually
the
hra
enters
into
a
staff
services.
Agreement
attached
for
review
is
the
draft
agreement
for
2022
that
is
currently
going
through
city
legal
review.
It
has
gone
through
hra,
general
counsel,
review
and
the
agreement
sets
forth
the
terms
and
conditions
for
staffing
the
hra.
G
A
F
I'm
sorry
not
really
we,
we
we've
had
a
little
bit
of
discussion
about
the
changes
that
the
hra
has
gone
through
in
the
last
several
years,
and
I
I
posed
a
question
several
meetings
ago.
F
I
think
about
how
how
are
things
going
in
terms
of
adequacy
of
staff,
in
terms
of-
and
I
wasn't
as
specific,
but
in
terms
of
do
we
have
adequate
staff
and
the
right
job
description
for
staff,
and-
and
I
don't
know
that
it
fits
into
this,
because
I
don't
but
anyway
I
think
it's
it's
something
that
as
a
commissioner,
I
want
to
be
supportive
of
of
the
hra
having
adequate
staff
in
those
two
dimensions.
G
Correct,
thank
you,
commissioner
olson.
So
you're
right,
it
doesn't
necessarily
call
it
out
in
the
staff
services
agreement.
The
assessment
for
how
we
do
development
will
bring
about
some
of
that
information,
as
well
as
just
regular
review
and
updates
to
work
and
duties,
and
just
looking
at
that
with
staff.
G
We
would
look
at
that
for
the
hra.
If,
if
I
would
like
to
change
staff
classification
or
and
create
a
new
position,
I
go
through
the
city's
process
of
asking
for
reclassification
with
the
hr
with
community
development
director
with
city
legal
excuse,
me,
city,
finance,
city,
legal
hr,
city
manager.
Excuse
me
as
well
as
in
any
change
to
new
staff.
All
of
that
goes
through
the
city's
process.
So
right
now
we're
just
looking
at
the
workload
that
has
been
increased
due
to
the
oho
and
the
affordable
housing
trust
fund.
F
You
manager
coleman.
This
is
something
that's
on
your
plate
and
you're
you're
working
over
time
to
to
study
it
and
and
and
then
you
do
the
process
that
you're
talking
about.
H
F
Sure
that,
as
one
commissioner,
that
I
I
support,
I
mean
it's
like
any
organization
has
to
do
kind
of
a
review
of
itself
periodically,
and
this
would
be
one
of
the
things
that
didn't
want
to
be
slipped
under
the
radar,
because
it's
been
significant.
Yes,
thank
you.
A
G
Yes,
annually,
the
hra
approves
an
agreement
for
legal
services,
with
a
scope
of
work
providing
for
general
counsel
that
working
under
the
direction
of
the
authority
shall
perform
in
prompt,
professional
and
competent
manner,
all
necessary
legal
services
that
are
requested
by
the
authority
this
past
year.
Our
general
counsel
have
been
very
instrumental
in
the
assistance
of
administration,
negotiation
and
program
revisions
amongst
other
services.
G
A
C
Lewis,
yes,
I
remember
when
this
item
came
up
previously
under
the
previous
administrator
and
we
as
a
board
had
not
taken
gone
to
the
proposal
process
for
many
years
for
our
legal
counsel
and
I
think
the
board
provided
some
input
indicating
that
it
was
important
to
periodically.
C
I
don't
know
that
we
stayed
at
a
time
frame
or
set
every
year,
go
out
to
bid
so
to
speak,
and
I
think
you've
worded
it
very
well
in
terms
of
the
importance
of
this
particular
legal
council
and
how
much
they
become
a
part
and
understanding
how
things
work
here.
So
I'm
not
necessarily
disagreeing
with
it.
C
But
I
think
that
you
know,
for
the
citizens
also
need
to
know
that
the
the
city
is
puts
these
things
out,
for
you
know
rfp
periodically,
and
I'm
just
wondering
how
other
board
members
feel
about
the
two-year
term
versus
the
one
again.
I
completely
understand
you
put
it
very
well
how
important
this
council
has
been
to
past
projects
and
really
how
what
a
great
job
they're
doing,
they're
very
diligent,
but,
on
the
other
hand,
their
processes
to
periodically
reevaluate
those
kinds
of
things.
C
G
G
It
is
the
affordable
housing
trust
fund
and
the
information
there
and
working
with
baker,
tilley
and
the
city.
It
is
projects
that
we
know
should
be
coming
on
board
that
the
general
council
is
already
working
on
and
the
fact
that
the
projects
coming
on
board
that
we
have
not
approved,
but
we
have
received
application,
wouldn't
even
be
done
until
2023.
G
So
it's
just
considering
all
the
different
work,
but
the
biggest
factor
is
the
expertise
of
hra,
not
just
us,
but
hras
and
phas
specifically,
and
mr
hartman
can
chime
in.
I
don't
know
how
we
would
convey
how
much
expertise
we
need
through
an
rfp,
because
I
know
you
have
previously
thought
about
this.
J
Chair
lewis,
commissioners,
I
mean
just
as
a
a
reference.
The
the
prior
general
counsel
was
held
by
the
hra
for
over
30
years,
and
I
think
everybody
is
in
agreement
that
you
know
a
pure
addict.
Our
pre-process
would
be
superior
to
that,
but
we
were
well
served
by
that
general
counsel.
I
do
believe,
but
yes,
I
mean
gentle
question
administrator
coleman.
J
It
is
a
very
complicated
world
of
the
of
the
hra
and
it
requires
a
level
of
expertise
that
is
not
found
in
every
law
firm
and
to
convey
that
in
through
an
rfp
process
can
be
very
challenging.
You
know
our
council
is
not
only
represents
us,
but
other
housing
authorities
throughout
the
state,
and
I
think
we
are
very
well
served
by
that
expertise
in
this
particular
area,
especially
as
it
comes
to
development.
A
E
Thank
you
chair
when
speaking
about
the
staff
services,
and
just
all
of
that
I
just
was-
it
came
to
my
head
of
just
being
able
to
really
maybe
recognize
staff.
It
would
be
nice
to
have
some
staff
maybe
come
to
a
meeting,
so
we
could
have
them
here
and
thank
them
personally.
Personally,
I
would
like
to
thank
them
for
their
time
and
dedication
and
hard
work,
not
just
over
tv.
E
I
understand
that
they
have
they
work
long
days
and
coming
to
a
meeting
might,
but
if
we
could
put
them
number
one
on
the
on
the
agenda
and
just
kind
of
you
know
recognize
them,
because
I
know
with
covet:
it's
been
a
long
time
since
we've
probably
seen
faces-
and
I
just
think
for
me-
it
would
just
be
nice
to
just
kind
of
put
faces
to
names
and
just
be
able
to
recognize
them
for
their
hard
work
within
the
hra.
If
that
would
be
something
we
could
do.
A
A
A
G
G
There
is
a
city
council,
port
authority,
concurrent
meeting
tomorrow
evening
november
10th,
it's
a
special
meeting
and
the
item
that
will
be
discussed
is
the
small
business
development
center
that
is
being
discussed
that
is
technically
in
the
south
loop.
G
So
if
you
would
like
to
tune
in
to
that
meeting
to
hear
some
of
that
information,
thank
you
mm-hmm.
It.
A
Would
be
great
all
right?
Are
there
any
other
comments?
Hearing
none.
Do
I
hear
emotion
to
a
journal
meeting.
