Accountability Council

The Council is the independent review body TASFGA plans to establish. It is intended to include advocates, former public servants, attorneys, academics, and journalists from every area of focus TASFGA plans to cover. No Council has been convened yet.

What the Council would do

• Would review complaints submitted by the public against elected officials, agencies, boards, firms, or other bodies within scope.
• Would set research priorities and approve new areas of focus.
• Would review and adopt draft Standards before publication.
• Would hold TASFGA itself to the standards it plans to publish — including oversight of staff, budget, and conflicts.

Council charter is being finalized. Founding-member applications will open once the charter is published. Applicants need not be subject-matter experts in housing — we're building cross-sector capacity.
