Ken presented the Treasurers Report showing a beginning balance of $3,450.02 as of
09/14/2000 and an ending balance of $3,439.98 dated 10/12/2000. There was some
discussion on the improved format and that the report was much more informative. It was
also noted that dates and check numbers incorporated into the line items give a much
clearer financial picture per the Activity Recap of the Galveston trip. The reports were
accepted.
Tom reported that 57 Sunshine Meals on Wheels were delivered to West U recipients
during the last accounting period.
There was no report from the representative to the city Recycling Committee.
Mary Lee attended the APAC (Area Planning and Advisory Council) meeting. The
Department of Aging is part of Health and Human Services. Gordon Quan gave a report
on Housing and Services for Seniors.
The City Council Report was given by Mary Lee. The 2001 budget was discussed. The
purchase of the "Y" was discussed along with sidewalks and street lighting. A fibulator
given by The Friends of the Park to the Fire Department and is now on the Ambulance.
The Historical Society is looking for a house to serve as a museum.
Committee Reports:
The Good Neighbor Team reported on a Policies and Procedures manual which is in the
works.
The News Letter, fall/winter edition of "Hi Neighbor" was published. It has all kinds of
interesting stuff in it along with the Senior Services Board Survey. A great thanks to all
those volunteers and staff involved in getting it into the hands of our neighbors, the
planners, writers, printers, folders and stuffers, etc.
Under Previous Business:
A very informative activity recap of the Monthly Highlights was presented for the month
of September.
The Transportation Activity report for the month of September was presented and a
suggestion was made to incorporate the names of the drivers in a matrix with the travel
descriptions.
Under New Business:
A copy of the Senior Services budget was presented for year 2001. At this time it is
targeted for $157,340. The Senior Citizens Activity Fund of $15,000 will now be
administered through the Finance Department.
A Letter was drafted to the West U City Council regarding the present Council's funding
of the Sunshine Meals on Wheels program and signed by the members of the Senior
Services Advisory Board. CCSC the (Christian Community Service Center) and many of
the food recipients already fund this activity. There seems to be some confusion as to the
appropriateness of this $6000.
Legislative and Nominating issues were on the agenda.
Adjournment:
The meeting was adjourned at 4:00. Respectfully submitted by Stan McCandless,
temporary secretary.
