Kay From: Vickie Talley [mailto:vickie@talleyassoc.com] Sent: Monday, October 17, 2011 12:25 PM To: Carchio, Joe Cc: Fikes, Cathy Subject: 10/17/11 Agenda Item #11 -MH Advisory Board Dear Mayor Carchio, The Manufactured Housing Educational Trust(MHET) does not support the continuance of the city's Mobile Home Advisory Board. It is a total waste of taxpayer resources to continue to provide staff support and other city resources to a committee that is dysfunctional, at best. The proposed ordinance keeps the same 9 member make up with one change - allowing park owners to have designees that does not have to live in the city represent them on the Board. Given that the Board has operated with no park owner participation for at least five years, this would seem to be an improvement and is certainly more fair, but only if the "independent" members of the Board are truly independent, which unfortunately has rarely been the case in the past. We understand that this issue has been discussed by the council at previous meetings and that the proposed changes in the ordinance is on tonight's consent calendar. We would have to agree that this change is better than no change at all.
