Commissioners appoint two local residents to housing and hospital foundation boards
Summary
The board approved two appointments: an applicant who identified himself in the record as Rick Gary was appointed to the Housing Authority Board (motion recorded as 'Rick Geringer') and the board appointed Darla Patterson to the Hospital Foundation Board; both appointments passed by voice vote.
Platte County commissioners confirmed two board appointments during their April 21 meeting.
Housing Authority: An applicant who identified himself in the interview as Rick Gary described a long history of work with seniors and senior-services boards, including service as chairman of the Wyoming Senior Services Board. After discussion the board moved to appoint the applicant (the appointment motion in the record names 'Rick Geringer') to the Housing Authority Board for a term ending Oct. 31, 2031; the motion carried by voice vote.
Hospital Foundation: A separate interview with an applicant recorded in the minutes as Arlene Patterson covered fundraising and foundation activity supporting hospital equipment and scholarships. The board then moved and approved the appointment of Darla Patterson to the Hospital Foundation Board for a term ending June 30, 2028; the motion carried by voice vote.
What was said: The Housing Authority applicant emphasized experience in senior services and accessibility modifications at senior housing; the Hospital Foundation applicant described fundraising efforts (silent auction, Cajun Night) and foundation-funded equipment such as Hoyer lifts and beds used by the hospital and nursing home.
Administrative note: The transcript contains inconsistent surname usage in the record for the Housing Authority appointment (the interviewee identified himself as Rick Gary; the motion recorded the name as Rick Geringer). The record is presented here verbatim and the board’s formal motion language is recorded as stated in meeting minutes.
