## Summary

The Affordable Housing Advisory Committee will hold a special meeting on May 14th to discuss and refine a proposed Home Repair Policy for the city. The meeting will also include standard procedural items like approving minutes and a brief opportunity to discuss potential future agenda topics. Public input will be solicited during a dedicated 30-minute period, allowing residents to share their thoughts on the city's approach to affordable housing.

A key focus of this meeting will be voting on recommendations regarding the draft Home Repair Policy, which aims to address housing needs within our community. This policy will be forwarded to the Housing and Community Development department and City Council for further consideration, so citizen participation is encouraged. 

The meeting will take place at Asheville City Hall and via YouTube, beginning at 9:00 AM. Information about the Home Repair Policy will be provided by city staff, and those interested in learning more or sharing their perspectives are invited to attend or watch the proceedings.
