3 <br />Due to the absence of the Chair, Mr. Schroeder recommended that the election of <br />Chair/Vice-Chair and committee appointments be postponed until the next meeting. <br /> <br />Jerry Passmore reviewed the changes made to the senior lunch program since its <br />administration was transferred to the Department on Aging July 1, highlighting the use of <br />real dishes, glasses and linen napkins. The meals are available to seniors for a donation; <br />guests are charged $4.00. Effective September 1, reservations are required. <br /> <br />Bob Jones distributed the most recent listing of Advisory Board on Aging membership, <br />including appointment of new members Cohn and Wells. One at-large vacancy remains. <br />He stated that Lloyd Little has removed his name from consideration. Mr. Jones also <br />distributed the list of applicants on file with the Commissioners Clerk. After thanking <br />Mike Symons for his interest, the Chair reviewed the applicants currently on file with the <br />Commissioners’ Clerk. A motion was made by Heather Altman to invite all applicants to <br />the next Advisory Board meeting and postpone making a recommendation for the <br />vacancy until after that time. A second was offered by Peggy Cohn. Motion carried. <br /> <br />Jerry Passmore announced that Bob Jones’ position will not be filled at this time and <br />some of his duties will be distributed among existing staff in order to reduce costs. He <br />also reviewed the proposed changes in the custodial staffing service at the Seymour <br />Center and his counter-proposal for a 10:00am to 7:00pm shift. <br /> <br />There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned with the next meeting <br />scheduled for October 13. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br />Jerry M. Passmore <br />Secretary
