e permanent low-income housing. Ms. Dawson said that Resolution 4216 adds the appropriate language and changes the name from Landbanking Trust Fund to Low-Income Housing Trust Fund. As of October 1990, the fund has a balance of $127,000. Of this, $75,000 has been allocated to the new intergovernmental Housing Policy Board; $31,000 of these funds were recently received from the sale of the site for the Laurel Grove Apartments. Responding to a question from Mr. Nicholson, Ms. Dawson said that the poten- tial uses of the trust fund have been broadened by allowing its use for any low-income housing project relating directly to the provision of permanent, low-income housing. Ms. Ehrman asked whether the language which allows for a broadening of the potential trust fund uses would include funding for additional staff resourc- es. Mr. Gleason indicated that the list of potential uses is intended for capital expenses only and could not be used for staffing resources. Ms. Bascom noted that the new intergovernmental Housing Policy Board has been allocated $75,000 of the trust fund moneys and asked the council to provide suggestions for priority housing projects. Ms. Ehrman noted that the fund money for the intergovernmental Housing Policy Board was awarded from Eugene and asked about the contribution that other governmental agencies would likely be making in the effort toward the provi- sion of low-income housing. In response, Ms. Bascom said that she is unsure of the monetary contributions that will be made by other jurisdictions, but e indicated that the presence of Eugene's commitment to this effort through the trust fund would likely induce support from other jurisdictions.
