249 Mr. Blake Caravati, a member of the Planning Commission and CDBG Task Force, stated that there has been little activity in the house bank program and it was felt that funds for the scattered site program could be used since the number of units has been reduced to eleven. Mr. Caravati stated that the moratorium on the revolving loan program has been lifted and some applications have been submitted for these funds. Mr. Chapman explained that the revolving loan program had been set up in conjunction with the Starr Hill project and had not been used since that time.
