FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None DESCRIPTION: The Dublin Housing Authority (DHA) is a separate entity which was created by the City to oversee the operation of the Arroyo Vista project. The Commission is comprised of the City Council and two tenant Commissioners. State Law mandates that the Board contain at least two members who are tenants. In addition, the law states that if the project has residents over the age of 62, one of the Tenant Commissioners must also be over the age of 62 . In June, the Executive Director was advised that one of the Tenant Commissioners would be resigning since she was relocating and would no longer reside at Arroyo Vista. The City Council had previously established a two-year term for Tenant Commissioners. The current terms of both of the Tenant Commissioners expired in June, 1991. The City Council requested a Subcommittee comprised of Councilmembers Moffatt and Burton interview interested applicants for Tenant Commissioner. The Housing Authority Staff solicited applications from interested applicants. The City Council Subcommittee interviewed the 5 candidates who completed applications. Ms. Peggy Taylor has served on the Board since May 26, 1987. Ms. Taylor has submitted a letter requesting that she be reappointed. Ms. Taylor fulfills the legal requirement to have one Commissioner over the age of 62. No other applications were received from tenants who meet this requirement. After consideration of the information presented in the applications and the personal interviews, the Subcommittee recommended Christopher Estes. The Subcommittee also recommends that Ms. Peggy Taylor be reappointed as a Tenant Commissioner. Staff has prepared a Resolution containing the recommendation of the City Council Subcommittee. If the City Council concurs with the Subcommittee's recommendation, it would be appropriate to adopt the Resolution.
