Summary

Trustees authorized the mayor and deputy mayor to sign an amendment to a Housing Choice Voucher contract extending the term to 04/01/2026–03/31/2027 and waiving renewal options; the amendment was approved on voice vote.

Mayor (Speaker 2) presented an amendment to an existing agreement involving the Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) program, describing the parties and principal addresses and noting that the amendment changes the term of the original agreement to end 03/31/2027 and removes renewal or extension options. The mayor requested a motion and second; the board approved the amendment on a voice vote.

The mayor read sections of the amendment into the record and said it was "made and entered into as of 04/01/2026" and that the parties intended the amendment to constitute a mutual modification of the original agreement. After questions from trustees about why the document is an amendment rather than a renewal, the board voted "Aye" and the motion carried.
