I waited 3 years, 7 1/2 <br /> months for an opening. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> I currently live in affordable housing as a first time apartment dweller. I waited 3 years, 7 1/2 <br /> months for an opening, so I am interested in the process of affordable housing, and would like <br /> the opportunity to advocate for more affordable housing; there s a great need for it. <br /> Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: <br /> The diversity I would bring to any advisory board I may have the privilege to serve on is this: <br /> I am new to the area, and after living in my own home for 28 years, and the same town for 60 <br /> years, I now live in an affordable apartment complex for people 55 and over, for which I was on <br /> the wait list for 3 years, 7 and 1/2 months! In addition to aging, I have an invisible but disabling <br /> rare disease that mainly affects women, and my grandson is a multi-racial special needs child on <br /> the autism spectrum. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br />
