The Affordable Housing Trust Fund Advisory Committee is seeking a member representing housing and population advocates (such as housing consumers, Human Rights Commission members, or housing advocates).

The objective of the committee is to advise City of Eugene staff on:

• Development of goals, resource allocation, and programs related to the use of monies in the Affordable Housing Trust Fund (AHTF).
• Specific project proposals to be supported by Affordable Housing Trust Fund resources.

Overall committee membership consists of nine members, representing a wide variety of experiences and backgrounds. Three members will be at-large; three members with planning, housing development, or other related experience (such as mortgage lender, home builder, realtor); and three members will include housing and population advocates (such as housing consumer, Human Rights Commission member, or housing advocate). Some members may represent multiple perspectives, depending on their backgrounds.

The committee meets four times a year (twice in the spring, twice in the fall) with additional meetings scheduled as needed.
