Natick COA endorses police elder-financial-abuse roadshow and offers board assistance
Summary
The COA voted to issue a letter of thanks and endorsement for the Natick Police Stop Elder Financial Abuse program and offered the Safety Workgroup's assistance with rollout; the motion passed and the board asked Jim Fitzgerald to draft the letter for review.
Jim Fitzgerald moved that the COA issue a letter thanking and endorsing the Natick Police's Stop Elder Financial Abuse roadshow and include suggestions to improve the presentation; the board also offered the Safety Workgroup's assistance in rolling out the program. The motion passed during the safety workgroup report and Fitzgerald was asked to draft the letter for the board's review.
The minutes record individual member votes in the roll call and state the motion "passes." The roll-call line lists some members with 'No' beside their names within the parentheses, but the minutes' summary line indicates the motion passed with eight affirmative votes and the meeting text records "Motion passes." The draft letter will be completed by Jim Fitzgerald and circulated to Saul Beaumont and the COA board for review before sending to the Natick Police.
COA staff noted they cannot set up program events at locations other than the Natick Community Senior Center (NCSC); locations such as Cedar Gardens, Coolidge Gardens, Sherwood Village and the Natick Library would need to be scheduled by the Natick Police if sessions are to be held there.
