Board hears committee and staff updates on side-lot program, social media policy and a potential property donation
Summary
Committee and staff reports covered a draft side-lot program to be revised and returned to the full board, a decision to use the city's social media channels rather than creating separate agent accounts, and a staff update about a potential tenant for 430 Spruce plus a possible property donation to the city or agency.
The property management committee reported that it reviewed a draft side-lot program, described the draft as "a great start," and will circulate revisions before bringing the proposal to the full board for further consideration. Speaker 1 said the committee had a few comments and planned to "circle it back 1 more time before we bring it to the greater board."
On communications, Speaker 2 summarized the committee's decision on social media: "We're not gonna have a social media. The agents will not have a social media account. We'll just work through the city's, existing platforms and just brand it as such." The board agreed it did not make sense to create a separate Facebook account and decided to post using the city's platforms with the agency logo.
In staff updates, Speaker 2 (Ricky) reported he has been working with Jeff at Black Diamond, who identified a potential tenant for 430 Spruce and that code enforcement is working with a property owner interested in donating a property "to the city. So or to the agency." Ricky said the agency would provide an application and, if returned, the matter would be brought to the January meeting for consideration.
Speaker 3 (staff) asked that, at the Jan. 6 meeting, council adopt a slate of 1-, 2- and 3-year appointments; Speaker 1 observed that board member Laura plans to resign and will submit a resignation letter. After small revisions and a clarification about wording in the minutes (a reference to a call from Teresa of the "Ohio neighborhood"), the board approved the November minutes by voice vote.
