Meeting recap

What happened, drawn from the records published after the meeting. Minutes

The board elected Vice-Chair Tracy Holsinger to succeed Ann Bradford, who resigned and is moving to California, and voted to approve the new Code of Conduct. Staff reported the county's Home and Community Block Grant funding will run about $7,000 below last year, and that the senior centers' takeaway lunch program is ending this month; director Janice Tyler plans to meet with the Area Agency on Aging to learn more about the funding changes. The board heard Year 3 progress reports on the Master Aging Plan: the transportation workgroup logged 120 rides to 21 riders from three volunteer drivers and fielded over 80 hours of help-line calls, while community support staff reported 12 cognitive screenings, six home safety consultations and 116 pieces of durable medical equipment provided. The board also welcomed new Employment Specialist Estella Johnson and heard that the Project EngAGE class is delayed to next year for lack of interest.

How the votes went

The board approved its June 10 minutes, elected Tracy Holsinger as chair, and passed the updated Code of Conduct; the minutes do not record dissenting votes on any of these.
