The purpose of the Housing Committee is to support department staff in implementing and enforcing housing policies and procedures by assisting with:
- the evaluation and selection of candidates for new housing
- at the request of the Housing and Public Works Administrator, the evaluation and selection of candidates for housing renovations, and
- the housing complaint appeals process
