He noted that pictures were posted on the chapelboro.com website. • He passed out the AHAB members the cards that were produced to help advertise the AHAB and hopefully fill the current vacancies. • He informed the AHAB that there is a group of people who have come together to address "Section 8" housing issues that were caused after GSC properties announced that they are no longer willing to start new leases and will not renew current lease for Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program recipients. • That on April 24, 2014 at 3pm there will be an Affordable Housing Panel Discussion on the WCHM radio station that he will be participating in.
