Valley County approves memorandum with Cascade Senior Center for outreach and clinic services
Summary
The Valley County Board approved a memorandum of understanding with the Cascade Senior Center to host community outreach and limited minor medical services and social programming.
Valley County commissioners on July 7 approved a memorandum of understanding with the Cascade Senior Center to allow the center to facilitate community outreach programs, limited minor medical care such as a foot clinic, and social events for seniors.
The agreement was presented during the commissioners' meeting and was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote. The MOU requires the center to host outside classes and encourages social activities such as bingo; commissioners asked staff to provide recommendations for additional classes the board would like to see offered.
Clerk Miller confirmed a signed copy would be distributed; commissioners discussed practical steps for delivering the document to the center and identified Cindy Rich as the contact. No dollar amounts, implementation timeline or funding sources were included in the discussion.
Commissioners noted program ideas ("fit and fall" classes, silver slippers–style programming) as potential future additions but approved the MOU without postponement. The vote was taken during the regular session; the board directed staff to deliver the executed document to the Cascade Senior Center.
The item drew brief discussion about how the center will coordinate outside classes and where to route the executed MOU. The board did not attach additional conditions to the MOU during the vote.
The center and county will proceed under the terms of the signed memorandum; staff will follow up on distribution of copies and future program recommendations.
