Summary

Trustee Constados confirmed Highview will cater 60 boxed SALT luncheon meals for March 10; the commission voted to include desserts and tabled a separate senior fair discussion pending staff follow-up on dates and rec center availability.

Commissioners confirmed catering and logistics for the March 10 SALT luncheon and approved providing desserts for the 60 attending seniors.

Trustee Tina Constados reported staff recommended Highview cater 60 boxed meals (corned beef sandwich, soup and potato salad) within the luncheon budget and that drinks and possible desserts remain to be arranged. "Within our budget we'll be doing 60 meals," Trustee Constados said. She noted staff liaison Janet provided details by email and attached a flyer for an upcoming senior fair in Addison for commissioners' reference.

Commissioners discussed dessert options. One commissioner suggested a cookie tray from Costco to avoid extra paper goods; another volunteered to provide desserts. The commission moved and voted to continue to provide desserts for the luncheon. The transcript records the motion passing by voice vote ('aye').

The commission also reviewed plans for reviving a senior fair (previously inactive for about seven years) and decided to table the senior fair item to the next meeting pending confirmation of rec center availability by the staff liaison. Commissioners asked staff for dates for Villa Park Fest as well but no dates were available at the meeting.

Commissioners were reminded to arrive at 9:30 a.m. on March 10 to help set up; police typically arrive about 10:30 a.m. and the program starts at 11 a.m. The chair asked commissioners to help with decorations and serving; reimbursement logistics were noted but specific dollar amounts were not provided in the meeting record.
