IV. HOUSING CAPITAL FUND APPLICATION DISCUSSION AND DELIBERATION
Angela provided a short recap of the three funding applications received 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 allocate to
projects in this funding round.
Angela walked through the evaluation matrix that was shared ahead of the meeting with
the Advisory Board starting with the EcoThrive application. There were a lot of
unanswered questions on the EcoThrive application and evaluation matrix was not
completed before moving forward with discussion on the other two applications.
Group discussion got through the evaluation matrix for the Habitat for Humanity
proposal and part way through the Mercy Housing proposal. Discussion will pick back
up at the November meeting to finish the evaluation matrix for the Mercy application and
discuss funding recommendations. The intention will be to bring forward a funding
allocation recommendation to the Executive Board at their December 16 meeting.
V. ADVISORY BOARD OUTREACH AND RECRUITMENT
Dorsol provided an update on outreach and recruitment for open positions on the
Advisory Board, gratitude for advisory board members helping out with the process. The
intention will be to bring forward a group of folks for appointment by the Executive Board
rather than one at a time.
