A
$100
renewal
grant
to
open
communities
to
continue
the
evanston
landlord-tenant
program.
The
city
has
partnered
with
open
communities
to
provide
landlord-tenant
services
to
evanston
residents
and
property
owners.
Since
august
first
2011,
the
period
of
services
funded
would
be
from
january
first
to
December,
31st
2017
and
the
funding
source
is
the
city's
affordable
housing
fund
can
I
have
a
motion
for
for
action.
Please
of
approval
and
a
second
okay.
Are
there
any
okay,
alderman
rainy
I
would.
B
C
D
B
E
Open
homes
you're
only
here
on
thursdays
from
nine
to
twelve.
What
happens
with
the
number
of
calls
that
come
in?
Are
you
able
to
handle
oh
fun.
D
E
So
Evans
residents
see
you,
then
that's
what
I'm
getting
at
yes,
ma'am!
Okay!
So
when
you
call
the
number
now
you're
saying
their
intake,
people
are
there
live
people
answering
or
are
you
getting
the
voice
mail?
What
an
Evanston
resident
calls
well,
anyone,
but
I
might
ever
seen.
Residents
will
get
an
intake
specialists
billed
as
in
an
automated
person.
Yes,
ma'am.
Okay,
yes,.
A
C
That's
a
good
question:
we
can
certainly
look
into
that
for
the
nine
to
twelve
their
walk-in
hours
and
there
weren't
clients
can
schedule
an
appointment
with
for
read,
but
they
can
certainly
scheduled
appointments
outside
of
those
hours
as
well
to
meet
with
him.
But
we
can.
We
can
see
if
there's
a
better
our
time
frame.
That
would
work
better,
that
a
person.
B
F
A
F
G
F
C
C
Madam
chair
and
members,
the
Planning
development
committee,
alderman
Wilson,
so
to
address
your
your
question
we
have
about
39,000
and
show
to
preserve,
has
to
be
used
by
July
thirty-first
of
this
year
and
then
I
think
there's
a
balance
of
about
ninety
thousand
or
so
that
another
2015
funds.
It
also
has
to
be
used
by
July
thirty-first.
The
difficulty
is
trying
to
find
a
project
so
with
home
funds
you
can
only
put
so
much
money
into
a
unit,
there's
a
home
subsidy
layering
unit
or
limit.
C
So
that
makes
it
so
we
have
to
put
other
funds
in
as
well
and
then
to
get
the
building
in
the
project
cash
flow.
You
have
to
do
more
of
the
local
funds
in
and
then
you
can
only
do
one
unit
at
sixty
percent
am
I
and
one
unit.
Eighty
percent
am
I
in
order
to
make
a
cash
flow,
so
I
know
it
seems
like
it's
a
high
cost.
These
are
also
up
to
funds.
H
Sarah
flags,
housing
and
grant
administrator
I
would
like
just
to
explain
something
about
the
chotto
reserve,
because
it's
right
now
we
have
that
money
that
we
need
to
commit,
but
Shoto
reserve
is
something
we
get
every
year
and
every
year
we
had.
Fifteen
percent
of
our
home
funds
are
designated
by
HUD
for
a
chotto
reserve
project.
H
We
have
three
organizations
that
have
been
chodos
in
the
past
or
r
choa
toes
we
contacted
all
of
them
and
said
we
would
like
to
try
to
figure
out
a
way
to
use
our
2015
2016
and
ideally,
if
we
ever
get
a
budget,
our
2017
showed
a
resort
all
in
one
project,
because
otherwise
we
are
not
going
to
be
able
to
figure
out
a
way
to
use
it.
It's
too
small
an
amount
to
be
used
in
a
single
project.
It
has
to
be
bricks
and
sticks.
It
cannot
be
t
bruh.
H
You
know
tenant-based
rental
assistance
and
there
are
truly
onerous
requirements
for
children
reserve.
One
of
the
things
is
a
chotto
must
remain
in
chotto
status,
the
entire
15
years
of
the
affordability
period
and
if
they
fall
out
of
chotto
status,
the
participating
jurisdiction,
in
other
words
us
we
have
to
be
able
to
move
ownership
of
the
project
to
another
chotto.
Now
the
world
is
having
fits
about
this.
However,
it
is
the
regulations.
So,
frankly,
if
we
it's
not
just
this
year's
chodo,
it's
all
of
these
children
reserves.
H
If
we
neither
of
the
other
two
organizations
were
interested
in
the
flying
for
chotto
reserve.
So
we're
really
at
a
situation
where
we
may
have
to
do
what
what
some
other
participating
jurisdictions
are
doing,
they're
simply
giving
the
money
back
to
HUD,
and
you
note
I
hate
to
see
money
that
we
could
use
and
realistically,
when
I
look
at
the
cost
per
unit
in
scattered
site
that
we
did
in
n
SP
and
what
we've
done
before
these
are
not
out
of
line
for
three
bedroom
units.
H
F
H
Well,
it's
for
they
have
to
be
long-term,
affordable
units,
but
the
problem
with
chotto
project
is:
they
have
to
be
owned
by
the
chotto,
so
you
can't
use
it
for
something
that
isn't
owned
by
a
chode.
Oh,
it's
I
got
to
tell
you
there's
some
of
the
worst
regulations.
That's
the
one
thing:
if
the
current
administration
would
get
rid
of
the
chotto
reserve,
which
Hut
is
recommended
and
everybody's
been
lobbying,
for
we
would
all
love
it,
but
we're
stuck
with
it
is.
F
G
A
B
Could
use
some
company
I,
don't
want
to
say
one
other
thing
if
we
continue
down
this
path:
affordable,
housing
spending,
five
hundred
thousand
for
two
units
of
affordable
housing.
Let's
just
say
this
is
the
model.
That
means
a
project
like
the
831
Emerson.
That's
going
down
the
drain
more
or
less
tonight.
That's
that's!
That's
proposing
4
million
4
million,
two
million
million
point
for
to
the
affordable
housing
fund.
Do
you
know
that
produces
nine
units
of
affordable
housing?
That
is
outrageous.
That
is
a
total
waste
of
money
that
is
total
waste
of
Ellen
I.
B
The
project
during
the
campaign
that
would
provide
50,
50
families,
50
families,
three
years
of
affordable
rental
housing
for
two
million
dollars
and
I'm,
going
to
I'm
going
to
take
it
to
the
city
when
at
once,
the
once
the
election
has
been
certified
and
I
am
going
to
encourage
the
city
to
embark
on
it
and
that
this
this
is
just
such
a
huge
waste
of
money.
We
desperately
need
quote
unquote,
affordable
housing
in
this
town.
But
to
do
this,
it's
just
unbelievable.
I
went
and
looked
at
a
condo.
B
B
I
When
all
these
building
developments
are
occurring,
really
popular,
really
needed,
etc
that
they
can't
build
into
those
affordable
housing
units
is
just
insane
to
me,
and
you
know
those
are
there's
a
real
need.
There's
a
good
market
and
apparently
highland
park
is
doing
a
really
good
job.
At
being,
you
know
clear.
You've
got
to
build
the
units
in
you
have
to
do
this.
That's
just
part
of
the
deal
and
developers
are
screaming,
but
they're
doing
it
and
I
think
you've
got
to
get
serious
here
with
these.
I
G
G
Are
there
alternative
uses
and
I'd
like
to
hear
I'd
love
to
hear
almond
Rainey's
plan
that
where
we
get
a
much
bigger
bang
from
from
need
for
these
affordable
housing
dollars-
and
I
agree
with
you
Sarah
you
never
want
to
send
money
back,
but
it
feels
like
we're
spending.
As
all
men,
Wilson
was
just
saying
we're
spending
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
save
39.
G
H
Me
try
to
frame
it
a
little
differently,
keep
in
mind
that
when,
with
these
units
we
have
affordable
housing
for
a
minimum
of
15
years,
that's
the
home
requirement.
Sepa
keeps
its
unis
affordable
for
99.
When
you
do
a
voucher
program,
you
are
helping
people
immediately
right.
Then
you
have
no
protection
in
the
long
term.
Once
the
money
is
spent,
it
is
gone
on
that
one
family.
So
it's
really
a
very
different
equation
and
I
think
there
are
two
aspects
to
affordable
housing
that
we
need
to
keep
in
mind.
H
One
is
affordable
units
that
are
income
restricted
for
long
periods
of
time
and
then
I
think.
We
also
need
voucher
programs
to
help
people
in
certain
circumstances,
but
if
they
need
affordable
housing
longer
than
a
two
to
five
year
period
in
the
home
team.
Our
program,
for
example,
we
are
spending
between
ten
and
twelve
thousand
a
year
per
household,
so
we
had
500,000
that
we
allocated
the
first
time
and
we
serve
22
families
over
a
period
of
three
years.
That's
great.
H
Most
of
them
went
on
to
become
stable,
but
not
everybody
who
needs
affordable
housing
is
going
to
go
on
to
become
stable.
So
that's
the
balancing
act
and
the
costs
per
unit
for
these
very
large
units,
believe
it
or
not,
are
very
much
in
line
with
what
we
spent
in
NSB
to
now
nsp
to
we
paid
less
for
acquisition,
but
we
paid
a
boatload
for
rehab
and
since
then,
property
values
have
increased.
H
That's
our
market
and
also
the
cost
of
rehab
has
increased,
but
we
did
span
and
one
project
that
was
a
two
unit
in
nsp
spent
270
2000
per
unit,
another
one
which
was
two
bedroom
units.
Not
three
bedroom
was
235,000
per
unit.
So
when
you
think
of
the
period
of
time,
these
units
are
going
to
be
affordable
and
when
you're
putting
a
unit
where
you
have
a
three-bedroom
unit
and
somebody
is
able
to
rent
it
for
less
than
a
thousand
dollars
with
a
two
or
three
percent
increase
over
the
period
of
time.
E
I'm
going
to
make
my
one
last
plea
about
affordable
housing
I
want
you
all
to
stop,
throwing
that
affordable
around,
because
affordable
really
means
what
you
can
afford
in
terms
of
how
much
money
you
make
so
for
all
those
people
who
make
under
sixty
percent
of
the
medium
income
in
this
community-
and
there
are
a
lot
of
people
who
do.
This
is
not
going
to
be
affordable
for
them,
and
you
know
I.
E
We've
just
got
to
do
something
different
here.
We
really
do
and
I
hear
you
saying
people
need
about
you.
They
may
you
know
they
may
need
help.
They
are
folks
who
make
thirty
thousand
dollars
a
year,
working
on
jobs
and
working
on
for
years,
good,
decent
people
who
can't
afford
to
live
here
anymore,
that's
troubling
for
me
and
I.
You
know,
I
think
that
we
we
have
a
responsibility
to
do
something
about
it
and
I.
E
You
know,
I
I,
hear
your
argument
about
this
I,
it's
a
good
one,
but
it
still
doesn't
answer
my
need
for
affordable
housing
for
not
only
and
I'm,
not
just
talking
about
the
fifth
Ward.
Believe
me
I'm
less
not
talking
about
the
fear
for
their
folk
all
over
this
community.
What
I
won't
say
all
over
this
community,
but
in
three
words
that
I'm
sure
of
who
will
not
be
able
to
rent
even
these
eunuchs,
so
I,
just
I
just
have
to
fan,
because
we
forget
we
say
affordable
and
everyone
starts
to
shake
their
head
Jess.
E
H
Homes,
I
do
hope
that
if
Ida
funds
housing
opportunities
for
women
project,
we
will
be
coming
back
for
gap
funding
for
that
that
is
16
units
of
housing
for
people
at
or
below
thirty
percent
of
area
median
where
they
will
pay
thirty
percent
of
their
income
and
the
rest
is
taken
up
paid
for
by
project-based
vouchers.
That's
a
different
need
in
a
different
system.
It
is
very
much
needed,
but
we
have
to
balance
many
things.
Yeah.
H
H
G
H
I
think
we're
getting
to
the
point
where
we
need
to
give
sepa
the
go-ahead
to
start
actually
negotiating
pretty
soon
or
we
risk
running
out
of
time.
But
realistically
I
don't
want
to
try
to
push
the
council
or
the
committee.
If
you're
not
ready
to
make
a
decision.
I
think
that's
inappropriate.
Then
we.
B
A
Yep
right,
ok.
Our
next
