23 <br /> Kyle: February outside agency presentations, and March outside agency scoring,that means that no <br /> decisions will be made until that time? <br /> Erica: Until the March meeting <br /> Kyle: There are applicants who had some deadlines with the towns that expire before that so thats <br /> something we probably need to communicate. <br /> Bonnie:The outside agency presentations are for fiscal year 2024-25 funding. Outside agencies <br /> applications are due January 15,the county reviews those and then we distribute them.Then in late <br /> March, I meet with every outside agency after you all have listened to and ranked them.They do not <br /> receive funding until July 1 of 2024 because I make a recommendation to the Board of Orange <br /> County Commissioners as to what their funding should be.That shouldn't change anything for <br /> outside agencies because they don't usually know what their funding is until May 2nd,when I <br /> present the recommended budget to the board. <br /> Kyle: Wasn't there some 2023 money also involved? <br /> Bonnie:That's what we're talking about tonight.This is the RFP for affordable housing money. $5 <br /> million was for CIP and then there was$700,000 that was heldover from the bond.That's why we <br /> have $5.7 million tonight.That is separate of the outside agencies. Our hope is that what we <br /> complete tonight we will be able to take to the board on January 16 for approval. <br /> Holly: I had a question. When I was doing the scoring, I saw in the column, a smaller number, and <br /> when I did the scoring there was a higher number. I dont understand why that was. <br /> Erica: Thomas went through and made sure that the scoring was consistent. <br /> Holly: Okay, thanks. <br /> IV. Score RFP Applications (75 minutes) <br /> Erica: So what staff have done is we've gone through every application, and we're just showing the <br /> average awards for each one. <br /> Lynn: I had a question about how the local and residency was tabulated, because I weighted them. <br /> Did everybody else do it that way? <br /> Hasan: I had a similar question, if you're talking about the AMI categories, I struggled on how to <br /> weight them based on the different AMI categories the application was requesting. In addition I <br /> think that quantity matters and in the scoring I think that nuance was missed. <br /> Lynn: So that we're consistent, how did everybody calculate that? <br /> Erica: Also,Thomas updated some of the scores. Did you want to talk about that? <br /> Thomas:There were some scores that did not reflect the scorecard accurately so scores that went <br /> over the highest possible score on the scorecard, I just applied the highest possible score.That's <br /> essentially all that I changed. <br />
