Summary

A speaker at the work session said the district previously issued special cards to residents age 62 and older to allow free admission to plays and sporting events, and suggested reinstating and publicizing the program; no formal action was recorded.

Speaker 4 told the work session that the district previously had a program allowing seniors age 62 and older to obtain a special card from the board office during business hours that granted free admission to plays and sporting events. "It was 62 or over. He'd go to the board office during business hours and apply for a card and we issued a special card and had the township seniors go to the plays or sporting events for free," Speaker 4 said.

Speaker 4 suggested reinstating the practice and publicizing it again, and urged staff (naming 'Brett') to invite seniors to events. The transcript records the suggestion and informal discussion but no motion, official vote, or staff assignment was recorded.

The proposal would restore a low-cost community-access measure for seniors if the board chooses to direct staff to implement and publicize it.
