IV. HOUSING CAPITAL FUND APPLICATION REVIEW
Angela provided an overview of the three applications received for funding in the 2022
SKHHP Housing Capital Fund round, EcoThrive, Habitat for Humanity, and Mercy
Housing. All projects are located in the City of Burien and amount to a total request of
$2.3 million, reminder that we have just under $1.5 million available to allocated to
projects in this funding round.
Question and discussion on why applications are all in Burien, some speculation but no
definitive answer, staff will follow-up on this question with applicants.
Advisory Board members requested full applications from all three applicants to review.
Angela will follow up with a link to the applications as well as a staff summary of the
applications. At the next meeting, the Advisory Board will begin a more in depth
discussion and deliberation of the applications with the intent to bring forward a funding
recommendation to the Executive Board at their November or December meeting.
V. ADVOCATING FOR FUNDING AFFORDABLE HOMEOWNERSHIP IN COUTNY
BIENNIAL BUDGET
Angela reviewed the advocacy letter on funding for affordable homeownership proposed
by housing partners in the region and asked the Advisory Board for their
recommendation on SKHHP signing on to the letter. Question regarding how much is
proposed in the County budget for multifamily rental housing, staff did not know and will
follow-up on this question. Point raised that there are many other advocacy letters that
SKHHP could sign on to as well and there should be consideration for supporting others

as well. General support from Advisory Board to bring the letter to the Executive Board
for consideration.
VI. RECRUITMENT/OUTREACH EXECUTIVE MANAGER POSITION
Angela provided an overview of the outreach and recruitment strategy to fill her position.
As part of that strategy we would like to have Advisory Board members participate in the
interview process. Volunteers to participate included: Jennifer, Andrew, Aaron, and
Uche.
VII. EXECUTIVE BOARD LIAISON REPORT OUT
Jennifer attended the Executive Board meeting as the Adviso ry Board liaison. Primary
report out included discussion of the draft legislative agenda, Executive Board voting
and discussion. Observation that as a result of the vote, the two that didn’t make it on
prioritized list – providing more time for tenants to respond to rent increases and
amendments to statewide just cause legislation – seem to have the potential to greatly
impact housing stability. Discussion on the merits of these two proposed legislative
priorities
VIII. CLOSING/ADJOURN
Meeting adjourned at 7:35 pm
