Council approves amended minutes, re‑nominates Fran Bast as chair and confirms summer schedule
Summary
At its June 9 meeting the North Council on Aging approved amended minutes, accepted a nomination to keep Fran Bast as chair, and voted to skip the July meeting, scheduling the next session for August 11.
At the start of the June 9 meeting the council resolved an inconsistency in the May 12 minutes assigning responsibility for senior‑center staff follow‑up to Sue and drivers to Carol; the board moved, seconded and approved the minutes as amended.
Fran Bast was nominated to continue as chair for another year; members voted in favor of her continuing in the role. There was no roll‑call tally provided in the record and no recorded opposition.
The board discussed bylaws that call for monthly 7 p.m. meetings and agreed, for practical scheduling reasons, to skip the July meeting and meet next on August 11. Members also discussed outreach assignments and agreed to continue gathering focus‑group input through September.
Separately, the Friends group reported it declined a $7,800 request from the North Recreation Association to fund nets and striping for pickleball courts at Melican Middle School, recommending the recreation department or the Community Preservation Committee as alternate funding paths. The board publicized a Friends car‑wash fundraiser at Whitney Place on August 7 from 3 to 6 p.m. and invited volunteers.
The meeting concluded after the board moved and approved the agenda items and scheduled the next meeting.
