HCHA meeting November 5, 2020 <br />out where fundings come from, where fundings going and why it has to go that <br />way. <br />Sako: So there's actually a lot of information on the county's recovery website <br />that Douglas and his team maintain, including the AMI information... <br />Richards: okay. <br />Sako: .... he was referring to and if this isn't there already we'll make it available <br />because I forgot this Housing Agency and not Council. So if its not already up <br />we'll make sure it gets up. <br />Richards: Okay cause I think there be a lot of answers in this information so with <br />that chair I yield. <br />Eoff: Thank you Mr. Richards. Any other comments in Hilo? <br />Kierkiewicz: Chair. I have some questions please. <br />Eoff: Please Ms. Kierkiewicz. <br />Kierkiewicz: Thank you. Thank you Douglas, Deanna. Really appreciate your <br />continued effort and hard work to help Puna recover cause sometimes I feel the <br />recovery process ... no ... this is, please don't take this personally but I feel that <br />were just limping along, and I don't want limp along, you know I certainly want <br />to help the community fly to a place of thriving and prosperity so it's not <br />personal its just the constant bubbling frustrations of community, I feel that I'm <br />engaged with them pretty often. <br />Anyway, getting to the meat of this, what is the deadline to submit this for <br />HUD ... to HUD? Are we under any time constraint here? Is there any possibility to <br />pause with where were at? Take another look at this plan and re -work it based <br />on consistent community feedback that it doesn't align with their vision and <br />values? <br />Sako: So if you want to hit the pause button were going to continue to limp <br />along because basically we would have to go back out, once the action plan is <br />revised it has to go back out for public comment and we start the process <br />again. So, you know, right now, we have ... HUD has approved the action plan, <br />there sent us the grant agreement to be signed, and so we need to move <br />forward. We can amend at any point in time, but I don't know how patient <br />HUDs gunna be with us if decide to amend the entire action plan before we <br />even sign the grant agreement. <br />Page 25 of 36 <br />
