Extra Members

The Council spent some time trying to
decide whether extra members should merely
serve as consultants or be part of the actual
committee. They set terms of three years for
three committee members and two years for
the other four, it will act on establishing the
committee at its next meeting.

The committee's eight duties will include
advising the council on specific housing
programs and suggesting changes in city
ordinances and regulations to relieve the
housing shortage in the city.

The committee is expected to work closely
with the Charlottesville Housing Foundation,
which has raised about $25,000 towards
alleviating housing problems.
