The waiting list will track applicant name and contact information, lottery number <br />(or designated number after the initial lottery), household income, household size, status of <br />application, and any other information deemed necessary.

Developer shall verify income of <br />prospective Homebuyers and certify the verification to the City; provided, however, that <br />Developer shall not be liable for any fraud or mistake in performing its duties pursuant to this <br />Section 4.8.
