Allan Polak Aye <br /> Kimberly Rider Absent <br /> Dawn Roberts Aye <br /> g. Youth Delegate: Debby Hill brought up that we need to follow up on Youth <br /> Delegate proposal with county to make sure that initiative is moving forward. <br /> h. Second Play Yard: OCAS could use a 2nd play yard, with potentially a different <br /> surface than concrete. It will need to be able to be sanitized—possible options <br /> include artificial turf, rubber mulch or gravel. We might be able to apply for a grant <br /> to fund this—perhaps through the NCVMA. How can ASAB help with this? <br /> i. Volunteer Program Board: Is there need or desire to create a board to oversee the <br /> robust volunteer program at OCAS? The current employee responsible for <br /> volunteers is leaving and a job opening will be posted,but it's a lot of people and <br /> programs for one person to manage. <br /> 2. Discussion of ASAB Orientation for new members: There is a recorded video for each <br /> member to review. The audio quality of the video is poor and it's a video of an in-person <br /> presentation—would be better as a true PowerPoint and needs to also have good narration and <br /> the legal requirements from the county for boards should be included. It was noted that the <br /> ASAB FAQs on the OCAS website need to be updated. Allan Polak and Lee Pickett volunteered <br /> to be on a committee, but we will revisit this topic at the next meeting. <br /> Animal Services Advisory Board: <br /> 1. Currently have 1 vacancy on ASAB—Town of Hillsborough position. <br /> 2. Current terms expiring for: Sunita Driehuys (end of term), Roni Peterson(renewal) and <br /> Allan Polak(renewal). There will be an open position for a veterinarian on the board and <br /> a new Secretary will need to be appointed. <br /> 3. Review of Mary Lucas' application for the Town of Hillsborough position. She works <br /> with a lot of rescue dogs, particularly hospice/seniors. Professionally she works in <br /> human hospice and is involved with helping elder owners find placements for pets they <br /> can no longer care for. <br /> Motion to recommend Mary Lucas to BOCC: <br /> Vote (Motion/2nd) <br /> Mike Delafield Absent <br /> Page 5 of 7 <br />
