CHDC approves minutes 5-0; board reviews working capital loan talks, notes Master Plan RFP and Habitat build day
Summary
At its Feb. 3, 2026 virtual meeting the Concord Housing Development Corporation approved previous minutes by a 5-0 roll call, continued review of a CMAHT funding request for a working capital loan, and recorded town plans for a Master Plan RFP and a May 1 build day at Assabet River Bluff.
The Concord Housing Development Corporation (CHDC) approved the minutes of its Jan. 6, 2026 and Dec. 9, 2025 regular meetings by a 5-0 roll-call vote during its Feb. 3, 2026 virtual meeting. The minutes record the motion was moved and seconded and list board members Ray Andrews, Julie McClure, Lee Smith, Ann Sussman and Dan Drazen as voting aye.
The minutes say the CHDC "continues discussion with the CMAHT to review the funding request for [a] Working Capital Loan in order to have sufficient funds to complete the transaction." The record does not identify the transaction, the loan amount, or the members who moved or seconded that discussion; the entry is recorded as a staff/board update in the minutes rather than as a formal vote or authorization.
Under general updates, the minutes state the Town is working on procuring consultants to develop a Master Plan, with an RFP planned for February; the minutes do not provide a procurement schedule, estimated budget, or which town office will issue the solicitation. The record also notes a new-business announcement that an Assabet River Bluff build day with Habitat is planned for May 1; the minutes include the date but no organizer or volunteer-signup details.
The meeting record lists attendees and roles in the minutes header: board members Ray Andrews, Julie McClure, Lee Smith, Ann Sussman and Dan Drazen; and others listed as Liz Rust (RHSO), Kristen Guichard (RHSO), Keith Bergman (CMAHT) and Ed Larner (CHA, CPC). The minutes use acronyms (RHSO, CMAHT, CHA, CPC) and do not expand them or describe participant roles beyond the header listing.
The meeting was called to order at 8:03 a.m. according to the minutes and adjourned at 8:27 a.m.
Next steps recorded in the minutes are limited to continuing discussions with CMAHT on the working-capital funding request and the town’s planned RFP; no formal motions beyond the minutes approval are recorded as having been voted on in the minutes.
