it was decided to table this discussion and any decision until next meeting, to see what <br /> other housing authorities were doing. <br /> • Mrs. Botsford reported that Spectrum has begun its compliance audit for Asher's Path. <br /> This audit is done every three years and, because of COVID, is being done remotely this <br /> time. Mrs. Botsford has scanned everything up to the them and is hoping to have it <br /> wrapped up before her last day. <br /> • Mrs. Botsford stated that all management contracts are all going well. Carver has two <br /> construction jobs about to start so Mrs. Campos will be sitting in on the meetings for <br /> those and Brewster has a large job starting soon. There will be a pre-construction <br /> meeting scheduled for that soon and it makes sense just to have Mrs. Campos attend. <br /> • Mrs. Botsford reported that training is happening now with Mrs. Campos. Mrs. Botsford <br /> stated that she also typed up extensive instructions and schedules and that she'll also just <br /> be a phone call away. Her laptop is set up so that I can access the things she needs to do <br /> the Asher's Path compliance work each month. If there are any glitches, she can reach <br /> out to our IT consultant. <br /> • Moratorium on evictions is up in October. Mrs. Campos will need to be in touch with <br /> attorney about moving forward with a couple. <br /> • Mrs. Campos' contract was approved by DHCD with one exception—no paid day after <br /> Thanksgiving. Since it is in our personnel policy, it was suggested by DHCD that you <br /> just allow Mrs. Campos to take it and give her an additional personal day. <br /> • Mrs. Botsford stated that she has discussed potential reorganization ideas with Mrs. <br /> Campos. The MRVP program representative has been laid off and Mrs. Campos is in the <br /> process of hiring her assistant. She may want to reorganize maintenance as well as <br /> administrative positions, as there are some challenges in that department too. <br /> OLD BUSINESS: NONE <br /> NEW BUSINESS: <br /> a) Mashpee Affordable Housing Trust bank Account: Mrs. Botsford reminded the board <br /> that we have an account at Cape Cod Five that is extremely old, which had been tied to <br /> the housing authority's defunct non-profit,the Mashpee Affordable Housing Trust. Mrs. <br /> Botsford didn't know what the board wanted to do about it, as there are funds in the <br /> account totaling just over $1800.00. A short discussion ensued, and it was decided to try <br /> to find out what the process was for closing out the account and how the remaining funds <br /> could be distributed. Mrs. Botsford stated that she would see if she can find anything out <br /> about it before her last day. <br /> b) Housing Assistance Program termination: Mrs. Botsford stated that she had put this item <br /> on the agenda after discussions with Mrs. Campos. Mrs. Botsford and Mrs. Campos <br /> discussed how this program is extremely time-consuming and with the housing authority <br /> only making $666 per month for an administrative fee, it is a total loss. Especially giving <br /> the fact that Mrs. Campos currently administers most of the program work, she is not <br /> going to have the time to continue it with all of her new responsibilities and it would be <br /> extremely time consuming to have to train a new person to administer it. After a brief <br /> discussion by all, a motion was made by Richard Halpern and seconded by Lisa <br /> Page 3 of 5 <br />
