Age requirement for Jewell Apartments discussed

The Jewell Apartments Board of Directors met at 7:15 p.m. on Monday, Dec. 4, 2023, at City Hall.

Attending the meeting were Darrell Bohnert, Josh Burks, Max Burks, Derek Birdsell, Gaye Daniels, Bob Freeman, and Jacque Williams, Kristie Anderson.

Jacque submitted her report of occupancy and monthly correspondence. She said one of the north apartments was inspected for termite damage and she was getting bids to treat the apartment building. HUD has inspection changes that the managers are required to update on and HUD is providing a training course in Smith Center for $300 in January. The board approved paying the $300 fee for Wiliams to attend the training course. Williams discussed changing the age requirement for the apartments to help bring in more renters. The board approved lowering the age to 28 years old pending on being able to change the age back up and increasing the qualification for security check.
