Summary

Board members reported recent community events and discussed coordinating donations for the Harvest Drive and other local nonprofit drives; staff will check logistics for including donation pickups at farmer's market events and add a related item to the next agenda.

Board members reported on recent community-service activities including the Parkland Pumpkin Patch, the farmers market opening, library book fair and a large community service day that produced toiletry kits and blankets for local drives. The board discussed supporting the Harvest Drive and whether the board should collect donations at an upcoming farmers market.

Staff and board members noted a recurring logistical problem: securing a reliable pickup and transport for collected donations. City staff said they would check whether a drop-off at the farmers market is feasible and whether a local partner could provide pickup service; staff also said the Harvest Drive and possible collection at a market will be added to the next meeting agenda for further planning.

Board members suggested alternative local collection ideas (shoe drives, prom-gown collection) and emphasized the need to coordinate transportation and storage if the CAB pursues an organized drive.
