On December 12, 2017, Gilbert Monnat, of Croghan, ended his official association with Steepleview Courts apartments. Mr. Monnat decided that after more than 33 years, it was time for him to retire from the Board of Directors of the Croghan Housing Development Fund Company (owners of the project). His knowledge of the property and constant diligence regarding the facilities have helped to keep the project in excellent physical and financial health and his hands on approach will be missed. Mr. Monnat was involved in the original construction back in 1982 and was Vice President of the original Board of Directors. In August of 1984, Gil moved into the position of President and held that office until his retirement earlier this week. Just this past spring Steepleview was able to pay off their mortgage and end their association with USDA. Now the property is solely a HUD project with their rules and regulations. Mr. Monnat helped to guide the project through the last 35 years and his presence and participation will be greatly missed. We wish Gilbert J Monnat only the best as he settles into his retirement from public service. Thank you Gil for all that you have accomplished! |
