During the 2007 Legislative session, the Florida legislature reinstated the requirement that all local governments that participated in the State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) program must have an Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC). The Legislature also required that the AHAC be made up of eleven (11) members instead of nine (9) as in the original statutes and ordinance and must represent specific areas/backgrounds.

As a result of the news release, one application was received from Richard Sanvenero. The applicant has been verified as being a resident and registered voter in Hernando County.
Staff is recommending the individual listed below, representing the specific areas/backgrounds, be appointed to the AHAC for a term of two (2) years as prescribed in Ordinance No. 2008-10.
