COMMUNICIATIONS (Cont.) a. uonQlnuea... Dear Mr. Nimtz: The Board of Directors of the Housing Development Corporation (HDC) of Saint Joseph County has recently established parameters concerning Board size and composition and is in the process of recruiting four new Board members. All HDC activities are administered through its Board, with the staff for the HDC being the Bureau of Housing staff. Essentially, the HDC was formed to bring together members of the community with housing expertise to serve as a catalyst in the development of housing opportunities for low and moderate income individuals. It is in the pursuit of gathering the individuals with housing expertise, that we come to the Redevelopment Commission in search of an appointment to the HDC Board. The Redevelopment Commission has served and continues to serve as the approval body for a number of housing programs in our city. Thus, the addition to our Board of a Commission Member would enhance the programmatic and administrative oversight function of the Baord, as well as provide a historical perspective to our planning efforts and program development. In addition, we would be proud to have a member from as august a body as the Redevelopment Commission join with us in our housing efforts. Should you have any questions, or need any further information, please feel free to contact Kathy Baumgartner or myself. -3- South Bend Regular Me, 4. COMMON a.

The Bureau of Housing maintains the necessary control with its option of not recommending the loan if the contract does not meet with their appr val.
