(http://www.mainehousing.org/homeloan) or see Mark
1. The Year Round Housing Corp. will hold its Annual Meeting and
election of Trustees and Officers on Tuesday, Nov. 18 at 7PM at the Learning
Center. This will be the first meeting under the new By-Law restructuring.
2. Our new Island Fellow, Kate Power, will be joining us soon to
assist with YRH activities.
3. Request by Judy Paolini to discuss auction property notices at
this meeting. (Judy did not attend). A brief discussion in which it was
noted that it was a public notice from the Maine Sunday Telegram and that as
long as personal info was not shared that it was appropriate to share the legal
notice with housing committee members. The only thing shared by the Housing
Administrator was the actual “Notice of Public Foreclosure Sale” copied
exactly as in the paper. Any other info came from individuals in their follow-up
criticism of the posting of the public notice.
4. The RCDI Grant through the Genesis Foundation will be ending in
the spring. Activities will continue which help to get our properties ready
to be utilized in the existing program. It is important that the YRHCorp be
functional as the ongoing organization as the position of Housing
Administrator will be ending.
5. YRHASC has listed its final needs to complete its work. The next
meeting will be on Oct. 8 or 15 (TBD) as the committee is down to 5 members
due to resignation of Judy Paolini and Meredith Sweet. With a quorum of 5,
all members must be able to attend until new members are found or the quorum
changed. The committee is hopefully within a few meetings of finishing its
original tasks.
Next regular YRH Committee meeting is Oct. 23 at 7PM at the Learning Center.
We will aim for the 3rd Tuesday of the month as that seemed agreeable to
most present.
Meeting adjourned, 7:55 p.m.
