    As they finished theirone-year update of the citysbiennial budget, various CityCouncil members said themajor increase in funding tosupport affordable housing wasthe single biggest item in therevised spending plan.

    At the urging of Deputy CityManager Lyman Howard, thecouncil upped its donation to ARegional Coalition for Housing better known as ARCH

    from $10,000 to $100,000.Howard is chair of the

    ARCH board of directors. Ata budget hearing before thecouncil on Nov. 10, he arguedthe citys planned $10,000contribution was not in keep-ing with the donations of sur-rounding cities.

    The ultimate feeling was weneeded to catch up with someof our neighbors, said MayorTom Vance following the Dec.1 vote passing the budget.
