5/10/2023	0	HOUSING AUTHORITY	ADOPTED; Minutes note: Fernando Aniban, HACM’s Assistant Secretary, explained that Convent Hill was partially funded by and has units that are Section 202, a U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) program to help expand the supply of affordable housing with supportive services for the elderly, so there are different restrictions. One of those restrictions is that after the 15-year compliance period is completed, ownership can only be transferred to a new non-profit entity.	Pass	4:0
