The Montpelier Housing Task Force was organized in 1999 to (1) gather and evaluate information regarding housing trends in the City, (2) to develop responses to housing concerns that are identified, and (3) to recommend policies concerning housing to Montpelier City government. These basic purposes were further elaborated by the Task Force in the following mission statement:
-
The mission of the Task Force is to preserve and enhance residential opportunities
in Montpelier for households of all income levels. Working with community residents,
City staff and elected officials, landlords and financial institutions, and
community organizations we will:
- Gain a better understanding of the complex issues affecting the quantity and quality of the City's housing;
- Recommend activities to increase the amount of housing in the City;
- Recommend strategies that protect against the loss of housing in the City; and
- Increase the public's participation in and awareness of City housing issues.
The Task Force consists of up to 15 members of the community, including one representative from the Montpelier City Council. Membership in the Task Force is open to all but preference is given to those who live or work in Montpelier. Members are appointed by the MHTF for two year terms. In order to maintain membership in good standing members are expected to regularly attend Task Force meetings, planning sessions, and special events. Persons who are unable to attend such events but who are interested in contributing to the Task Force can participate without becoming members. Friends/Staff George Seiffert Tim King Susan Gillam |
