Special HCHA meeting November 15, 2019 <br /> Kierkiewicz: Great. Thank you. A few more questions. Any chances of an action <br /> plan being rejected? <br /> O'Neil: Ummm no, well theoretically. Theoretically. More often than not...you <br /> know there's ten...when you submit it we have 45 days to approve or deny it <br /> and we work towards approving it, we'll work...there be a lot of back and forth, <br /> you know, filling in, answering questions and getting to that point. Generally, if <br /> you're not there, often times grantees will withdrawal it and they'll work on it <br /> some more and then re-submit it. I don't know that its ever happened but if we <br /> did reject an action plan all it does is start the clock over again you got 45 days <br /> to submit a new action plan, were never not gunna...you don't lose your <br /> money...its just we work till yes...we work till yes. But it may take longer than the <br /> allotted time. <br /> Kierkiewicz: Is part of submittal public comment? <br /> O'Neil: Yeah. Yeah there's...like I said there's a community engagement <br /> process, you need to be actively engaged in the community throughout the <br /> whole process but then yes, technically there's public hearing and public <br /> comment periods for that final action plan. <br /> Kierkiewicz: And in your experience have you...has public comment weighed in <br /> on your decision as to whether or not accepting the action plan or refining it? <br /> O'Neil: Yeah. Yeah. I mean if if a you have a comment that brings up a valid <br /> point and you're ignoring it, then were going to tell you, no go back and <br /> address that. If you got a comment and you respond...there's...your follow a <br /> comment with your action, your response...you describe what you did, whether <br /> you incorporated it into the plan or you explain why you didn't, then that's fine. <br /> Kierkiewicz: Okay great. Just a couple more. Examples of some eligible projects, <br /> activities for our situation. Are buy outs being discussed? <br /> O'Neil: Buy outs are often... <br /> Kierkiewicz: Temporary rental assistance? <br /> O'Neil: ....often. Yes. Yes. <br /> Kierkiewicz: Okay. All of that? <br /> O'Neil: Yes. Yeah. <br /> Kierkiewicz: What else? Do you think for our unique situation? <br /> Page 15 of 31 <br />
