The Department of Housing and Urban Development provided a response stating that the value of \"restricted land\" owned by individuals of an Indian tribe would not be considered an asset for eligibility under Section 235. The Council expressed gratitude for the consideration and hoped that the decision would benefit Indian applicants."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_90_54_0000-Housing%20and%20Urban%20Development%20-%20Indian%20Housing,%201971/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_90_54_0004_thumbnail.jpg "The Delayed Indian Housing Project in Mill Creek: A Call for Expedited Action")
