College Station city council members at their October 12 meeting appointed 13 people to a housing action plan.
The committee has a year to develop what is described as “a unified vision for the future and reflect the community’s vision for housing action and initiatives.”
While the final vote to appoint members was unanimous, there was a tie to select the last person. Mayor John Nichols changed his nominee to break the tie.
As for the composition of the committee, Nichols said on WTAW’s The Infomaniacs that it’s a “diverse group, (with) citizens, attorneys, a school board member, as well as a (Texas A&M) student.”
The council appointed Charles Barr, Blanche Brick, Tiona Broussard, Fred Dupriest, Katherine Fisher, Mike Holmgreen, Blake Jennings, Geralyn Nolan, Delia Perez-Nunez, Carla Robinson, Diana Wood, Jodi Warner, and Suzanne Droleskey. Warner was named chair with Brick as vice chair.
