Help steer affordable housing
Tuesday, January 4, 2022 by Elizabeth Pagano
The Housing Investment Review Committee – formerly known as the Housing Bond Review Committee – is looking for qualified members to review affordable housing projects, among other things. Interested candidates are invited to complete an application by Feb. 1, with preference given to those who have been part of a development team or have experience with development finance, academic-based housing research, legal counsel, or who have had personal experience with housing instability, according to a city press release. City staff members will review applications and make appointment recommendations to HIRC by March, with terms expected to begin March 30.
