Yamamoto, in the Council Chambers, 22 Civic Center Plaza, <br />Santa Ana. The following members of the Authority responded to <br />the roll call: <br /> <br />Present <br /> <br />Absent <br /> <br />-- <br /> <br />David F. Ortiz <br />John Garthe <br />James E. Ward <br />Harry K. Yamamoto, Chairman <br /> <br />Vernon S. Evans <br />David L. Brandt <br />Gordon Bricken <br /> <br />The following persons were also present: <br /> <br />Manuel Rede, Executive Director-Secretary <br />Keith L. Gow, City Attorney <br />Bruce C. Spragg, City Manager <br />Florence I. Malone, Recording Secretary <br />Representatives of the Press <br /> <br />The full reading <br />of the Minutes of <br />May 17,1976, and <br />the Special Minutes of May 25, 1976, was waived and they were <br />approved as mailed subject to the following addition under New <br />Business to the Minutes of May 25, on motion of Commissioner <br />Ortiz, seconded by Commissioner Garthe, and unanimously carried <br />(4- 0) . <br /> <br />MINUTES <br /> <br />Commissioner Bricken stated that first of all the <br />units will be made available. We have a Housing <br />Authority and have demonstrated we can do the job <br />and we have a need in this community. On the other <br />hand, I feel that we should try and secure additional <br />units if those units are going to serve our people, <br />which they would, because we have the need. Yet there <br />are many communities in this surrounding neighborhood <br />who are not meeting their obligation at all. I would <br />be willing to allow them the privilege of meeting their <br />obligations by applying for them (Housing Units). I <br />want to secure the units if other people will not meet <br />their responsibilities. If there is some way we can <br />encourage these other communities, fine. If not let <br />us reserve the right to secure them, if they don't. <br />I am inclined to make an application and withdraw it <br />if other people wish to apply. <br /> <br />Commissioner Bricken arrived at 2;15 P.M. <br /> <br />BILLS AND COMMUNICATIONS <br /> <br />Nothing to report. <br /> <br />The Executive <br />Director stated <br />that other Housing <br />Authorities had the opportunity to apply to the Department of <br />Housing and Urban Development for housing units; and it appears <br />that most of them will do so. Mr. Rede reminded the Authority <br />that June 11, was the final filing date for the Santa Ana Housing <br />Authority to apply for additional units. <br /> <br />REPORT OF SECRETARY <br />
