The Treasurers Report was approved as read. Dave told the board that the CD’s were rolled

looking to re-class some invoices to Capital improvements for the repairs made to the houses.
Updates on Houses:
300 Woburn Street: The school year is ending, so there are no more seniors at the site. Brick
walk way being done today. Kitchen is being installed, Trench drain has been installed. Dave

moving along. Dave is looking to do something with the back yard. The water service let go and
a new one was installed. The board will tour the houses before the next meeting.
Progress of Lottery: Bill met with Karen Sunnarborg and we have 35 applications so far. Some
applications have minor corrections, but they look like they all will be qualified. The lottery will
th
be June 9 or 10. Bill will be away and Gerry has agreed to represent LEXHAB. Karen and the
housing authority are doing a great job with the applicant pool. Some applicant’s rents can be
so low according to the 30% income, that we may have out of pocket expenses.
Update from Town Meeting. The town did approve the purchase of 454 Marrett Rd and 142
Emerson Gardens.
