The fund would be administered by the Affordable Housing Trust Fund Board of Trustees. The composition of the Board of Trustees would be as follows:

  • Mayor, or a designee, who shall serve as the chair
  • A representative of the City of Lynn Planning Department as appointed by the mayor
  • At least three residents of the City of Lynn with experience in the fields of real estate, housing banking, finance, law, architecture, social services or other areas applicable to the purpose and goals of the trust
