<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Alex,<br></div><div><br></div><div>Coalition for a Better Acre uses Wendy Cohen of <a href="http://www.newseasonsdevelopment.com/">New Seasons Development LLC</a> who is very skilled at helping with financial proformas for affordable housing projects and providing project management support. Wendy has a lot of experience supporting CDCs, I'm not sure if she has provided consulting support to a municipality regarding affordable housing. Maybe a good interview/RFP question!<br></div><div><a href="mailto:wcohen@newseasonsdevelopment.com">wcohen@newseasonsdevelopment.com</a></div><div><br></div><div>I know Maura Comosse Tsongas of Stone Soup LLC is also in the affordable housing consulting field and provides advice to MACDC's working groups on the occasion. CBA has not worked with Maura on a project. <br></div><div>
