31 <br /> 1 Janice Tyler said she and her staff agree. She said it is a 43% increase from what it was <br /> 2 pre-pandemic. She said they are running the dual program that allows the option to dine-in or <br /> 3 drive-through. She said they are running a survey to see if they can figure out why folks are <br /> 4 wanting to drive through rather than come in. She said that if the emergency declaration <br /> 5 expires, the drive-through option will go away because they currently have a waiver from the <br /> 6 state to operate that option. She said that what is not reflected in the budget is the ARPA <br /> 7 funding they will get from the Department of Social Services (DOSS) and some of that will go <br /> 8 towards meals and that may help keep the curb-side meal program going. <br /> 9 Commissioner Bedford said she is very interested in seeing the survey results. <br /> 10 Chair Price asked if they were serving enough food for the recipient to also have dinner. <br /> 11 Janice Tyler said no. She said that early on they were serving meals three days a week <br /> 12 and each service had two meals. She said this equated to an extra meal each week at 6 meals <br /> 13 rather than five. She said that she has had questions about serving dinner. <br /> 14 Travis Myren said the ARPA money that Janice was referring to is not county ARPA but <br /> 15 directly from the state to the Department on Aging. <br /> 16 <br /> 17 Slide #43 <br /> Human Services <br /> Aging — page 47 <br /> Senior Center Attendance <br /> 2x®o — <br /> 2p:kiC P�.2t+� i9R.I5S <br /> x isn <br /> voow <br /> :aouz <br /> 5q,uuo — <br /> M-1-1.7 FUN-= FJbs-17 Ff]7-Lf Ff]FLQ rY]aaq IY-71 ►-3a14-SZPM FR=-LI <br /> LNK <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> 43 NDgT7[CARO]_LNA <br /> 18 <br /> 19 <br /> 20 <br /> 21 <br />
