 Broder gave a summary of the fair housing training RFP process to date. The
 City received 2 no bid forms which stated reasons for not bidding on the fair
 housing training RFP, including concerns about the review of training materials
 and ownership and future use of the training materials. The Commission
 discussed how to address the consultants’ concerns and move forward with
 the RFP. Councilwoman Anderson recommended looking at comparable
 communities to see what they have done. The consensus was to work toward
 having proposals to review at the May meeting, including reaching out to
