During a recent meeting of the Audit and Accountability Committee in San Antonio, Betsy Spencer, the chief operations officer of Holtz Adams Construction and Consulting LLC, highlighted the vital role her company plays in supporting the city’s affordable housing initiatives. As a service-disabled veteran-owned small business, Holtz Adams specializes in both residential and commercial construction, bringing valuable experience to city-operated programs.

Spencer shared that her firm has been engaged by a local minority-owned certified small business that has been providing construction services to the city through the Neighborhood Housing and Community Development (NHCD) department for the past eight years. Their current task involves assisting this business in navigating the payment reimbursement process for services rendered to income-eligible clients.

This collaboration underscores the city’s commitment to enhancing affordable housing options and ensuring that local businesses can effectively contribute to these essential services. By streamlining the reimbursement process, the city aims to support contractors in delivering timely repairs and renovations, ultimately benefiting residents in need of housing assistance.

The discussions during the meeting reflect a broader commitment to accountability and transparency in city operations, particularly in how public funds are managed and utilized to support community needs. As San Antonio continues to address housing challenges, partnerships with local businesses like Holtz Adams are crucial in fostering sustainable solutions for residents.
