assistance and rehab/repair work. Will coordinate via email. Could <br /> also consider a written statement from the AHAB. <br /> • May 20th is probably the hearing. Willie to confirm. <br /> (4) Planning Upcoming Community Meeting <br /> o Consider using opportunity to educate on changes being made, opportunities for <br /> public to participate, how things work, etc. <br /> o Making ourselves visible in the community is important, help folks understand our <br /> role. It's been at least 2 years since the last one. <br /> o September 2025 set for meeting. <br /> o Past meeting - Mostly staff led, AHAB members there to listen and learn. Helped <br /> community members learn about programs and who to contact. <br /> o Consider how staff can help moderate more instead of leading. Facilitate <br /> conversation between community members and AHAB members. <br /> o Location - Will be very different in different parts of the County. Substance and <br /> style will be influenced by the location. <br /> ■ If we were to do 2, one in Efland (can pull from Hillsborough and Cedar <br /> Grove) and one in Chapel Hill. <br /> ■ Report back to Board of Commissioners <br /> o Are there specific takeaways we want community to receive? Resources that <br /> would be useful? <br /> ■ To consider in planning the agenda. <br /> ■ What programs are available, what the County is doing, and getting <br /> feedback we can take to Commissioners as well. <br /> ■ Setting expectations. <br /> ■ Can also ask Commissioners if they have outcomes they are interested <br /> in. <br /> o Lynn moves to propose 2 meetings, one in Efland and one in Chapel Hill. Todd <br /> second, all approve. <br /> o Next Step: Monica volunteers to lead a small committee to help put <br /> together a draft agenda for community meetings for review of the AHAB. <br /> Monica will solicit volunteers for committee in June, plan to bring draft <br /> agenda in August, and will consult staff on draft as well. <br /> ■ Need to also consider dates at June meeting. <br /> (5) Next Meeting: Developer Meeting <br /> o Next Step: Need to confirm invitation list from Kyle for invitations. Aaron <br /> will review and confirm. Kyle will reach out via email and phone. <br /> o Willie will create a draft agenda for this meeting in the next week for <br /> feedback from Lynn and Matt, and then to the rest of the group. <br />
