Mike explained that income certification occurs semi- annually at the tenant's 6 -month and 1 -year anniversary. He explained that RD notifies CHA via Real Page when a tenant's certification is due. Estella asked where the money collected from the property disposition auction and the sale of firewood is recorded in the budget. She noted the sale of wood and surplus property was approximately $1,000 which could be used to build the water fountain. Cheri responded by saying it will be recorded in the "Sale of Goods and Services" line item in the income statement. She also explained the sale took place in June and July and wouldn't be reflected in the budget until the June budgets were reviewed in August. Sid asked if CHA had received its wastewater permit renewal. Mike indicated that CHA had not yet received the renewal permit, and was operating under an extension. Rick suggested CHA's long -term goal should be to hook up to the city sewer system. Estella said CHA should push for grants to fund wastewater improvements. Mike reminded the Board that no funding will be realized without the needs analysis. Mike explained that DEQ, the engineer and RD will meet next week to resolve some of the inconsistencies in the requirements. Mike said DEQ has conditionally awarded CHA $35,000 to complete the needs analysis. Rick suggested CHA will need much more money in the future to fund the matching portion of any grants. Mike explained that CHA's best option is to get a low - interest loan or grant to purchase a new sewer line and recoup costs by selling hook -ups to the system. Rick explained that CHA does not want to own the sewer line, but rather purchase it for the city and let them maintain it. Estella asked how many roofs CHA needs to repair this summer. Mike indicated staff is repairing roofs as needed and when time permits. Mike said staff reprioritizes roof repairs during the Fall and before the Winter weather sets in. Estella suggested CHA dedicate funds in future budgets to address the deteriorating roofs. Mike explained that CHA will likely face a 16% increase in health insurance premiums. He also explained the rebate CHA will get under the new Health Care Bill that will offset the increase in premiums over the next couple of years. Estella excused herself from the meeting. Sid suggested CHA get the tractor running and sell it. Dana asked how much it will cost to fix the tractor. Mike did not know, but indicated an unwillingness to spend too much money on the tractor. Jim suggested getting someone to look at it and give CHA a bid on fixing it. Motion by Sid to spend $300 on evaluating the repair needs of the tractor, seconded by Dana, and approved by the Board. 7. Old Business Since the items under new business where discussed in the Directors Report, Mike suggested moving to "New Business." 8. New Business M + lb Mike explained his plans to build the fountain for the kids. He explained that several local companies plan on donating time and materials. Rick suggested only a licensed electrician hook up the electricity to the fountain. Sid told Mike to contact Jody at Custom Rota - Precast for a water tank. Mike asked the Board to approve $2,000 for the fountain. Motion by Sid to allocate $2,000 to build a water fountain; seconded by Rick and approved by the Board. 9.
