SPECIAL MEETING HOMELESSNESS AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMMITTEE BOCC
Chairman Paul Jewell opened the meeting at 1:02 p.m. to discuss the
Homelessness and Affordable Housing Committee’s (HAHC) Request for
Proposals and the Homelessness and Affordable Housing Plan
documents.
Robin Read and John Littel who both worked on the documents with the
HAHC sub-committee, asked the Commissioners if they had input on the
documents or would like to see any changes before they submit them
for Board approval.
There was discussion on the scoring matrix and if it should be
included with the application instructions. Chairman Jewell said
including it with the application package helps clear up some of the
questions for the applicants.
Vice-Chairman Osiadacz pointed out that the parameters of the HAHC
and the grant applications are different than some of the other
boards and committees.
The committee discussed administration or operations costs vs.
direct services; budget template; definitions of administrative
costs and direct costs; RCW’s; objective vs subjective proposals;
having only one RFP for both Affordable Housing and Homelessness
Housing; fixed funding; how to apply the most money to direct
services for clients; and minimizing administration costs.
The HAHC will submit the documents for Board review during the next
Agenda Session.
Meeting adjourned at 2:05 p.m.
