Housing Plan The Executive Director Housing plan (continued from September 4, 1979). Councilman Backes noted that "Revenue Bond Program," Conditions of Bond Sales, contained blank areas. stated the paragraph should read as follows: "Conditions of Bond Sales - Mortgage service costs shall not exceed 0.375 percent. Bond-sale cost shall not exceed 2.75 percent for issues over $10 million and up to $20 million, or 2.5 percent for issues above $20 million." The Executive Director explained the service costs are recommended as a ceiling; the actual cost would be determined upon negotiation. He continued the inclusion of the item was due to suggestions during an earlier Counc il study session that some guidelines be contained in the document, and resulted from discussions with Miller & Schroeder Municipals, the City Finance Director and comparison with other ci�ies. The Counc�l expressed concern that deletion of Policy No. 17, as requested by the Housing Authority, would preclude persons living in Housing Authority rehab ilitated units from taking advantage of the program; further, should a future decision be made t� sell the houses, the City would probably be required to conduct public hearings and repeat the entire procedure to amend the Housing Plan. The Executive Director explained the status of the Acquisition with Rehabilitation Program, the scarcity of appropriate units to be rehabili- tated within the community and the possibility that the Program may be te.rminated within several years; the funds for the Program would�seconcern reimbursed to the federal government. He repeated the Authority that an adequate number of rental units remain avaiiable to families unable to purchase housing, Councilman Elstrom, seconded A£ter further discussion, it was moved by 1979; the to October 2, at �h� by Councilman Ralles, to continue the hearing �u�hority items of concern would be discussed with the Housin1979. �egularly scheduled joint meeting on September 25> Councilman Martin did not believe the hear�,n8 should be continued, and that P ousing Plan to be used wheri and if i� olicy No. 17 should remain in the H is the desire of the Authority.
