III. STUDY SESSION
Review and discussion of proposed agency budget for fiscal year ending December 31,
1999. Specific questions on budget items were addressed by EID St. Clair.
Project BUILD is now being run by the City of Englewood Neighborhood and Business
Development (NBD) Department. The Board is interested in keeping a program similar
to Project BUILD which would be administered by the Housing Authority. The goal
would be to purchase existing housing, repair/rehab, and market to first-time home buyers
while remaining in compliance with the EHA's mission and creating a positive cash flow.
EID St. Clair suggested contacting landlords currently participating in the Section 8
program. The EHA could potentially purchase some of their properties, make
repairs/upgrades and sell to the existing low-income occupant.
