Housing Advisory Commission Meeting Minutes February 5, 2018

 Commissioners recommended Ryan Companies review the Analysis of
 Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI), that a portion of the housing units in
 the development be attainable, and while housing for seniors continues to be
 important, to also consider the housing needs and affordability for all
 generations.

2. Consider recommendation from the DuPage Homeless Alliance to assign a Housing
 Advisory Commissioner as AI Project Manager.
 The Commission discussed how best to monitor and ensure implementation of
 the AI action items. There was some concern that spreading out responsibility
 for tracking progress on the action items to the whole Commission would
 reduce accountability, but that it might be too much for a single person. There
 was consensus to form a 2-commissioner committee to work on budget
 requests and track progress. The committee will meet and report back to the
 Chair. Haber-Kovach and Kuhn volunteered to be the first 2 commissioners to
 serve on the committee.

F. REPORTS:

1. Receive the report regarding progress on the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing
 Choice (AI) action items.
 The fair housing training/education RFP is in final review and is expected to be
 published at the end of the week with a submittal deadline of February 23, 2018,
 and Commission scoring and discussion of the proposals is tentatively
 scheduled for the March HAC meeting.

 The City is expecting to receive some reimbursements of CDBG funding,
 meaning there may be funding to conduct an affordable housing study in the
 near term.

 While some of the action items require funding, completion of a number of the
 action items is contingent on there being adequate staff resources available.
 Staff resources are limited to working on 1-2 small/medium action items or 1
 large action item a year.

2. Approve the minutes of the January 8, 2018 Housing Advisory Commission meeting.

 A motion was made by Kuhn and seconded by Fischer to approve the meeting
 minutes of January 8, 2018. Motioned carried by voice vote; 7-0.

G. ADJOURNMENT:

 Motion to adjourn by Commissioner Haber-Kovach, seconded by
 Commissioner Hojnacki; meeting adjourned at 7:36pm.
