New Business <br /> The Manager will present the Orange County budget to the Board of County Commissioners on May 2. <br /> During the budget process the Manager met with each of the outside agencies individually. She has <br /> since convened a meeting with the three meal-delivery agencies to discuss service area and eligibility <br /> requirements difference. <br /> 2017-22 Master Aging Plan <br /> Mary Fraser announced that the MAP Steering Committee will meet on April 12 to suggest changes to <br /> the draft Plan and discuss implementation strategies. Public comment sessions will be held at both <br /> Senior Centers on April 20. The document will be presented to the County Commissioners at the May 16 <br /> meeting. Presentation of the National Senior Center Accreditation plaques and the Older Americans <br /> Month proclamation will also be made at that meeting. Chair Cohn applauded the process, the plan and <br /> the format. Mrs. Fraser commented that the difference with this plan is using the Age Friendly <br /> Community guidelines as the framework. Heather Altman expressed the need for this MAP to be a living <br /> document and that we also have room for flexibility. Mrs.Tyler noted that Pat Sprigg will be announcing <br /> at the MAP Steering Committee meeting that organizations will be receiving commitment letters in the <br /> near future. At this meeting Mrs. Sprigg will also be asking the Towns to sign on with the WHO/AARP to <br /> become Age Friendly Communities. Chair Cohn noted that many of the strategies call for action from <br /> the Towns. Mrs.Tyler announced that some of the demographic data is being updated. Mrs. Fraser <br /> commented that this plan involved 160+ persons and it was definitely a grassroots written plan. Dick <br /> White shared how great it was to have so many community persons involved and to be able to put a <br /> face with name. Aging Board members were asked to review their tasks. Mary Altpeter suggested that <br /> the Aging Board assignments be included on future meeting agendas. Mrs.Tyler and Mrs. Fraser will be <br /> working on the implementation plan and the Steering Committee will be commenting during the <br /> July/August meeting. Colin Austin shared how important it is to keep the work group participants <br /> engaged. There are some naturally occurring teams resulting from the MAP process and they will be <br /> tapped to help with implementation. Ms. Altpeter suggested that the MAP would make a great <br /> presentation at the American Society on Aging's annual meeting. <br /> Continuing Projects <br /> Yvette Missri distributed flyers for the April 20 An Evening with a Physician and Author, Dr. Haider <br /> Warraich. The End of Life Choices team have worked very hard on this event. Mrs. Missri announced <br /> that Project EngAGE Class Four will be starting in September and recruitment will begin in May for class <br /> participants. <br /> Committee Reports <br /> With Lorenzo Mejia being absent from the meeting Mrs. Fraser announced that six Wells Fargo locations <br /> have signed on to become Dementia Friendly Businesses. We have been asked to do a webinar through <br /> the American Society on Aging on our Dementia Friendly Business program. <br /> The Direct Care Workers Award submissions are due next week. The awards ceremony will be held on <br /> May 25 from 4:30—6 p.m. at the Passmore Center. <br /> Mrs.Tyler announced that the Friends of the Passmore Center are hosting their Annual Las Vegas night <br /> on April 22 from 6-10 p.m. and there are tickets still available. For the Friends of the Seymour Center <br /> Mrs.Tyler announced that Betty and Henry Landsberge's estate contributed $2,000 to the Friends. <br />
