Actions taken via Electronic Vote:

On January 30, 2025, the board authorized Kim O’Brien to sign an affidavit on behalf of the Board. The affidavit, which verifies the date of the CCDC loan agreement with the Austin Housing Finance Corporation for the construction of 1611 W. 10th, was required by HUD because the original agreement was not dated. This matter was time-sensitive and could not wait until the February 2025 meeting.
