100 <br />352 Judith Wegner. A lot of this stuff, such as at the top of page 8, is something from the Board of County <br />353 Commissioners and the bottom of page 7 referenced a continuation of the program. If the Board of County <br />354 Commissioners are' the ones that are putting it in, it is a question of if is mandated <br />355 <br />356 Tom Alfieri: Maybe what you are referring to is that these are not goals or objectives but sections out of the body text <br />357 so in those cases you would need to open the plan and look in that section to get the additional context to see if it <br />358 makes sense. <br />359 <br />360 Judith Wegner. My question is should it be listed as an objective? <br />361 <br />362 Tom Alteri: There is not another level beyond objectives as part of this process. <br />363 <br />364 Jay Bryan: We wanted to add these as part of what is in place to address housing needs in the County, is that your <br />365 recollection? <br />366 <br />367 Tom Alfieri: The question regarding item number 2, that was not the one that Brian Crawford asked about. <br />368 <br />369 Jay Bryan: This is what the Board of County Commissioners wanted to add to that section? <br />370 <br />371 Tom Alfieri: In the text, there is a list of the various housing programs in the County and this program was not <br />372 included in that summary list and they thought that it should be. <br />373 <br />374 Judith Wegner. I withdraw the comment. <br />375 <br />376 Craufurd Goodwin: Can we come up with a more reader friendly term than "Project Performs"? Does it mean plan? <br />377 <br />378 Jeffrey Schmitt: There needs to be a verb. <br />379 <br />380 Jay Bryan: Anything else on page 8? Let's move to page 9. <br />381 <br />382 Michelle Kempinski: I have a question about the technicality of that hyphenated word. Does it mean anything? <br />383 <br />384 Renee Price: Lower income. <br />385 <br />386 Lany Wright: Sometimes there are retirees that live on Social Security and in some other states they get a tax break. <br />387 <br />388 Craufurd Goodwin: I am not questioning the policy, just the terminology. <br />389 <br />390 Renee Price: It is another way of saying lower income. <br />391 <br />392 Lany Wright: Maybe lower income is more specific because you could have someone who is making $400,000 and <br />393 are financially challenged for other reasons. <br />394 <br />395 Renee Price: Being politically correct. <br />396 <br />397 Michelle Kempinski: What about, "increase provisions that housing assistance for households in need and <br />398 coordinate with public and non-profit organizations". Strike financially challenge and substitute households in need. <br />399 <br />400 MOTION made by Michelle Kempinski to change Objective H-1.3 to "Increase the provision of housing assistance for <br />401 households in need and coordinate with public and non-profit organizations responsible for providing community <br />402 services and housing in the County." Seconded by Jay Bryan. <br />
