Request for Nominations: Persons from North Carolina

Deadline: May 1, 2013

Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta Affordable Housing Advisory Council

North Carolina Nomination Form

The Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (Bank) is soliciting nominations from North Carolina to serve on the Bank's Affordable Housing Advisory Council (Advisory Council). Nominations can be made by completing and returning the nomination form in the link above by close of business May 1, 2013.

The Bank seeks nominees from a diverse range of for-profit or nonprofit corporations and organizations and private, public or quasi-public entities actively involved in affordable housing and/or economic development in the state of North Carolina. The Advisory Council meets quarterly to advise the Bank's board of directors on ways in which the Bank can better carry out its housing finance and community lending mission, including, but not limited to, advice on the low- and moderate-income housing and community lending products, market conditions and credit needs in the Bank's district, and on the use of the Bank's Affordable Housing Program (AHP) products and services for these purposes. Members of the Advisory Council receive a fee for each quarterly meeting they attend and are reimbursed for travel, lodging, and meal expenses. Meetings are typically one and a half days, beginning at noon.

Appointments to the Advisory Council are for a three-year term with a maximum of two consecutive terms. This year, the Bank will appoint one new member from North Carolina. The North Carolina appointee is to fill a vacancy for the remainder of an unexpired term that ends in December 2014. The appointee may be eligible for reappointment for a three-year term at the conclusion of the unexpired term.

Please consult the Bank's website www.fhlbatl.com or call Arthur Fleming, Senior Vice President and Director of Community Investment Services, at (800) 536-9650, extension 8359, if you have questions about the Advisory Council or the nomination process.
