WALKER COLLECTOR JOAN PERRY TREASURER MAHLON G. GIBSON PROSECUTING ATTORNEY VOL. B. LESTER COUNTY JUDGE In late January, HUD invited various agencies in Washington and Benton Counties to apply for additional Section 8 housing units. Part of the ranking would be based on need, and another part on prior HUD-related.experience. The County application was not, as you know, selected for funding. Your jurisdiction corrently extends out from the Fayetteville city limits, to the 5 -mile peripheral planning boundary. We have received some requests for rental assistance from beyond thesejurisdictional limits, in Unincorporated County areas. With this in mind, we took this question to the Quorum Court last evening (June 8). The Court unanimously (13-0) voted to invite the Faye- tteville Housing Authority to accept applications from, and provide rental assistance to, eligible families from throughout Washington County. Excepted from this territory would, of course, be the other incorporated cities --par- ticipation therein could be only on their respective invitations, I understand that this could be before your Board on June 21. If you wish, Fred Lamb, of my office, could appear then to answer questions from the Board. 4 A copy of the applicable portion of the Quorum Court minutes froii the June 8, 1978 meeting is attached.
