Committee Reports:
Finance Committee: Vicki Brantley presented financial reports. The new accountant published reports on the online portal and then removed them for corrections. Vicki has minimal concerns.
There were questions on a specific fund and how it can be properly utilized with our lower-income seniors. Sarah is on top of it and handling the issue.
Nominating Committee: The board is full until June when Vicki leaves. David asked the board members to come up with some names of options for a new board member; however, there’s no
replacing Vicki. She will be missed!
Personnel Committee: Sarah has been pushing for homemade meals in the kitchen for the in-house meals. This has not been fully implemented and Sarah is done with the excuses from the
kitchen manager. While the kitchen manager was out of town, Sarah and the assistant had to do the ordering and ordered everything needed for a fully homemade menu. If that is not implemented,
Sarah will handle the issue from there.
Bylaws and Policies Committee: The board discussed some edits needed in the bylaws regarding members of the same family working for the senior center. The current policy needs more clarity.
Vicki suggested sending out the handbook through email where the board has to do only one vote over all changes.
Director’s Report: See attachment presented by Sarah Walker.
Assistant Director’s Report: All points Robin needed to address were discussed in earlier sections of the agenda.
Old Business
Building Update: No update at this time. David has emailed the architect multiple times.
Made to Stay: Fletcher mentioned dissolving at the end of March. There were questions on if that was happening as there had been minimal communication. Sarah received notice that Made
to Stay had officially been dissolved as an organization. There was discussion on what steps need to be taken to implement Made to Stay as an official program of the Senior Center and
establish a separate fund for its financial needs.
