Housing Capacity – Governance
Description
The community EDO requires expertise to provide facilitation for community policy development, community mobilization and creation of a housing development committee.
Specifically, the Housing Development Committee exists:
• to determine eligibility for housing for all applicants
• to prioritize renovation requests for the Band buildings and housing (Council to send letters as committee does not make final decisions.)
• provide options to the Chief and Council and they have final say
The Housing Development Committee wishes to:
• develop a better filing system on each housing unit
• assess a housing unit before and after house is occupied or vacated for damages (structurally or tenant caused)
• coordinate with the Environmental Health Officer especially if mold is a concern
• revise and update the Housing Policy
• become familiar with the minor capital budget for information and assurance of quality decisions
