Board forwards intergenerational‑care feasibility discussion to Health and Human Services committee
Summary
Following discussion about childcare and program-based intergenerational services, the board voted to refer consideration of an intergenerational feasibility study to the county Health and Human Services committee; motion passed unanimously.
Board members debated whether the vacant wing should host assisted‑living or intergenerational programming and whether the county should pursue market analysis or program development. Carla (staff) recommended moving the topic to the Health and Human Services (HHS) committee for deeper study.
Carla said shared‑site intergenerational services and program‑based approaches were options worth exploring and recommended a feasibility study be referred to HHS. A motion to forward the alternative intergenerational engagement item to the HHS committee was made and seconded; after brief discussion about childcare shortages and community needs, the board voted 'Aye' and the motion carried.
Next steps: the item will be placed on the HHS committee agenda for further analysis and possible commissioning of a market/feasibility study.
