-: Oh, I love the ribbon-cuttings and the ground-breakings
and that kind of stuff. That's so much fun.
It's really great to go to a place
that was a bare patch of ground
or was a dilapidated building
and to see it transformed into something
that's gonna be really useful and beautiful and interesting,
and it's always so much fun.
That's my favorite part.
I really enjoy, that's great fun to see
what people have done and how excited they are
about what they completed and what they're gonna do next.
That's always so exciting.
Well, that would be the HUD regulations.
There are pages and pages and pages
of regulations and requirements
that come from federal law that we have to go through
and make sure that our work is falling
within all of these regulations.
And we're one of the middlemen in this whole thing.
Because we're working right alongside the people
who are doing the hands-on part of it,
we're trying to make sure
that they have everything they need
and that we're getting from them as much documentation
as we can, and then we report that
to our regional office, which is located in Indianapolis.
And they check in on us, and they make sure
that we're meeting all those, you know,
spend down certain percentages
and reaching all these different goals and making sure
that we have the right paperwork for everything.
And that can be a challenge.
That can definitely be a challenge. (laughs)
