Board approves schedule change, hears subcommittee updates and outreach plans

At the start of the meeting the committee handled routine business, including attendance and procedural motions. Jen Lewis, introduced herself as a board member and led a roll call; the panel then considered approval of minutes and an administrative motion to cancel the January 21 meeting and set the next regular meeting for February 18.

A motion to approve the minutes was made and seconded; the transcript records at least one member saying they opposed and one abstention (the abstention was explained by the member saying they were not part of the earlier meeting). The chair moved to cancel the January 21 meeting; members answered 'Aye' when called and one participant said they opposed, but the motion proceeded and the February 18 date was set.

During public comment a participant asked whether the Housing Authority's Wednesday meeting schedule conflicted with the committee; members agreed to review calendars and consider alternative dates or earlier start times to reduce conflicts with county council meetings.

Subcommittee members reported on communication and outreach plans. A planned speaker series pairing transportation staff and local workers with data presentations was targeted for mid‑March; staff will circulate speaker details and a date once confirmed. Staff also reported ongoing work on resale and acquisition options for a Bear Hollow three‑bedroom townhome and on the status of housing resale applications and outreach events scheduled for February.

The meeting closed after routine updates and a motion to adjourn; the chair thanked members and the meeting ended with a standard 'Aye' vote to adjourn.
