· Form subgroups for meeting planning
o Meeting should be soon – Wednesday 9th November@5pm
o HGB or Ballroom
o Open – John can help get the information needed
o What things should be covered
§ Decrease and increased rent and comes up short of replacing shortfall
· Wrong about the size of the shortfall. It is over 500,000
· In order to increase the rent to cover would be unreasonable
· The different rates charged were not well correlated with anything obvious
· Age and size of home is what was chosen
§ Main flaw with right sizing is the lack of choice. Housing is working on that as we move to the future
§ Church does not like the shortfall but is okay as long as we have a plan.
§ Shortfall includes loans to pay for new homes

§ Repairs, Other….
§ Housing is a means to be able to make things livable
