Thank you, Mr. Chair. The last year it became pretty apparent that through the application, we could provide better communications regarding the application process, particularly as it relates to repairs for seniors. With that in mind, what we’re planning on doing for the next intake process is having a targeted application process where staff would be meeting with seniors in communities on a community-by-community basis as required and outlining what the criteria is as well as what the benefits can be from applying for repair programs and providing better communication to the seniors on what’s available to them. In addition, we also anticipate that we can achieve some cost savings by, perhaps, bundling some of the maintenance requirements of seniors on a community-by-community basis and accessing trades through this bundling process. So that’s anticipated for the next intake this coming year. Thank you.
