The application will be <br />reviewed and a public hearing held at the Board of County Commissioners meeting this evening. If <br />approved, the funding will be used to promote a call center for senior transit issues. The Mobility <br />Manager will work with churches, existing services, and volunteer drivers to address unmet needs.

The results were as follows: <br />• Transportation: Castro, Flowers <br />• Housing; Allison, Hatley, White <br />• Long Term Care: Altman, Cohn, Perkins, Prather <br />The discussion groups will meet one hour prior to the January 8 meeting to review the progress made <br />toward attaining the MAP goals in Year 1 and the strategies for Year 2. An email reminder was <br />suggested. <br />There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Janice Tyler, Secretary <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
