[0:08] we get everything together we are all
[0:11] set thank you ping the meeting to order
[0:15] thank you all for coming
[0:17] today could you please um establish a
[0:20] forum J yes I will go ahead and start
[0:24] with um commissioner gallager
[0:27] Thompson commissioner Dixon commissioner
[0:30] Trel here chair Cohen here commissioner
[0:34] bassi here Vice chair Olsen here and
[0:37] commissioner Buckle here we do have a
[0:40] full a full Quorum
[0:56] present to the flag of the United States
[0:59] of America
[1:00] and to the Republic for which it stands
[1:03] one nation under God indivisible with
[1:20] liberty
[1:22] comments there is no one currently um uh
[1:27] no cards have been turned in up this
[1:29] time
[1:35] okay so we're moving to item
[1:38] consideration first thing are the
[1:47] minut people have a chance to check it
[1:51] out do I have a motion to
[1:54] approve
[1:56] second all in favor say I
[2:00] opposed
[2:07] abser thank you very much although last
[2:11] time I asked them they said they could
[2:14] vote which to me doesn't make any sense
[2:17] at all because if you weren't here how
[2:19] can you
[2:23] approve
[2:25] majority okay so the next item is the
[2:28] work plan our
[2:31] Bible are with a lot of revisions for
[2:34] Bible yes so uh we did provide a printed
[2:38] copy for everyone um that is the packet
[2:41] that is in front of you um so this
[2:44] incorporates all of the changes that the
[2:47] commission discussed at your meeting in
[2:50] January um and so this represents the um
[2:54] the transportation piece uh was
[2:56] completed but the two updated ones um
[3:00] the social participation um the
[3:02] collaboration with Club 55 for the um
[3:05] calling it kind of a fall fling um until
[3:08] maybe there is maybe a a a title that
[3:12] the um ad hoc committee comes up with um
[3:16] and then I did list um because that was
[3:18] part of the conversation which is not
[3:21] listed because it would technically fall
[3:23] in the next term but the hope that the
[3:25] fall fling would could turn into um
[3:28] hosting a spring in in
[3:31] 2026 so that again would fall into the next term but that is uh captured in
[3:38] the work plan and then the other larger
[3:41] event is the um health fair which is on
[3:45] the second page um and obviously that is
[3:48] currently in progress we have the date
[3:50] and time secured in September and so if
[3:54] there are any changes or adjustments
[3:57] that need to be made um but
[4:00] uh this should reflect the conversation
[4:02] that we had at our January
[4:06] meeting yes it was also included in the
[4:09] packet as
[4:12] well don't get up don't get
[4:15] up City Council leaz on are new count
[4:19] correct glad that you're with us well
[4:21] thank you I'm happy to be here I
[4:23] requested this Commission
[4:32] really pay
[4:34] attention so where are where where
[4:38] would
[4:39] sorry question about the health fair
[4:42] because last time we talked about
[4:44] September versus October and I thought
[4:47] we didn't decide yet on the DAT I
[4:51] thought that Jamie was going to Che
[4:53] about availability or both the place was
[4:55] available both
[4:57] stes so I wonder the because it says
[5:00] September so I wondered if we are now
[5:03] set for September I so yeah could you
[5:07] speak a little louder louder the we do
[5:11] have the microphone as
[5:14] well yes and we we just need to make
[5:17] sure it's turned
[5:23] on that
[5:26] better okay great saying last month we
[5:30] talked about the Frozen ponds of
[5:32] September versus October for the health
[5:35] there so people prer October others were
[5:38] saying September and I think Jamie to
[5:40] check on availability of the venue so I
[5:44] and I think
[5:46] we could
[5:49] you could you take off your mask the um
[5:53] air movement is sufficient a little that
[5:57] um this is not a closed environment this
[6:05] is yeah it's a I'll do it
[6:11] for let me say again we had a discussion
[6:14] about the difference in
[6:17] the likelihood of people attending if it
[6:20] was September versus October with the
[6:23] thought that September might be too
[6:24] early people right after L day and
[6:28] October had some advant
[6:30] because was us more time to plan as well
[6:34] um so I thought it was left open and
[6:37] then G was going to check availability
[6:39] of the venue and that we would decide
[6:41] today what the actual date was going to
[6:46] be I I pi to different I I thought it
[6:49] was pretty
[6:51] much
[6:53] yeah so uh clarification um and the
[6:57] commission does have options So based
[7:00] upon the conversation that the
[7:02] commission had in November the priority
[7:05] date was this was September um that date
[7:09] has been booked but the October date has
[7:12] also been booked as a backup so the ad
[7:16] hoc subcommittee can determine during
[7:19] the planning process if we need to
[7:21] adjust to the October so both dates are
[7:25] available but the first priority date
[7:27] from the conversation in November was
[7:30] September so that is what is currently
[7:32] reflected we can update the work plan to
[7:35] list both um so that it is clear that
[7:38] both are
[7:39] options is it premature to ask what the
[7:42] specific dates are yes so
[7:46] the no um so those dates uh were listed
[7:51] it is um September uh it is so both are
[7:56] Tuesday dates um the priority date was September 9th and that is the one
[8:02] that is currently listed the um other
[8:06] date I believe in I believe it was
[8:11] October 7th if I remember correctly so
[8:15] those are the two dates um that are
[8:19] currently secured and booked here at the
[8:21] community center so both are options but
[8:25] um September 9th umer
[8:29] s so again I can update the work plan to
[8:33] identify both of those dates if that
[8:36] would be better for the commission
[8:38] specific time yes the specific time the
[8:42] event itself will be noon to 3: it will
[8:46] be 3 hours and then there will obviously
[8:49] be time for setup before and clean up
[8:52] after but the event time frame was
[8:55] selected from 12: to 3
[9:00] in the next September date was it a
[9:02] Jewish holiday Chris remember you looked
[9:04] it up can you check it
[9:06] yes 23rd was
[9:09] rash
[9:13] yes conflict no so the 16th was
[9:18] unavailable so the 16th was unavailable
[9:21] and so that is why those two dates the
[9:24] top priority was so the 9th and the 16th
[9:28] the commission had preferred September
[9:30] at least during the November discussion
[9:33] um and so 16th was unavailable which is
[9:36] why the 9th was booked the seventh was
[9:39] booked as well as a backup so again the
[9:41] um the subcommittee can determine during
[9:44] the planning process if we would like to
[9:47] adjust to the October date so both are
[9:51] available I think it's great that we
[9:53] have both dates because we have to light
[9:54] up Seekers and right now we haven't done
[9:57] any of that so it's good to have the two
[10:00] days and I think maybe that would be the
[10:02] determining factor for what the acre is
[10:05] who can we
[10:15] get I think the the rationale for the
[10:19] September it not being the 9th is
[10:21] because we don't have a meeting at
[10:23] August right there's no meeting in
[10:25] August is that no so there is a meeting
[10:28] in August it is July and December that
[10:31] we do not currently have meeting
[10:33] scheduled now if it is needed we can set
[10:36] up a special meeting but generally
[10:39] speaking for regular meetings that the
[10:41] commission holds there are no meetings
[10:44] planned for July and December at this
[10:50] time so uh with the is direction that we
[10:54] would like to add notes that indicate
[10:56] those two dates on the work plan
[11:03] also please note which one is first dat
[11:06] from which one is back yes we will go
[11:08] ahead and do
[11:13] that we going to discuss about the work
[11:16] plan
[11:17] now it um and so we can make those
[11:20] adjustments and I will make sure that is reflected so that we can um have
[11:26] the most current work plan when it is
[11:29] submitted to city council for the joint
[11:32] meeting um the only other piece is if
[11:35] any adjustments need to be made or if
[11:37] there want if the commission desired to
[11:40] add anything else to the work plan um
[11:43] but uh as I mentioned in January those
[11:46] are two quite large events um and so I
[11:50] think for this term I think that
[11:53] probably would be sufficient along with
[11:55] anything else that might come up with
[11:56] the year but that is open for the
[11:59] commission to discuss if you would like
[12:01] to add anything
[12:04] else uh remind me you were supposed to
[12:08] send an an email putting the members of
[12:12] the healthcare committee together in
[12:15] terms of contact information and maybe
[12:19] even so far as the first meeting I did
[12:22] you send that email no not yet um and we
[12:25] would want to make sure that the uh so I
[12:28] have held off doing that just until the
[12:31] work plan has been um approved and
[12:34] finalized then we will go ahead and and
[12:37] go forward with that including the um
[12:40] Outreach for that piece and also the St
[12:44] member assigned to the subcommittee
[12:49] correct an information question since I
[12:52] wasn't here the last time you guys had a
[12:55] health fair what is the basic um goal of
[12:58] the health fair
[13:00] question so the pre uh I can just uh
[13:04] provide a brief overview but um the the
[13:08] adult 50 plus um in collaboration with
[13:13] uh a few volunteers did host um a health
[13:17] fair down at Grant Park in October um
[13:21] and all of that information um and the
[13:23] intent behind that one was to um provide
[13:27] information on a variety of resources es
[13:30] um and so that can be up to the
[13:33] subcommittee as far as what the purpose
[13:37] of the he of this upcoming health fair
[13:39] that the commission would like to plan
[13:42] that is open so at least initially when
[13:45] we had talked about this for the work
[13:47] plan um it was to expand upon what was
[13:51] offered in October which was really just
[13:53] bringing some vendors together but it
[13:55] was um at least the commission
[13:59] uh let or at least said that they wanted
[14:02] to include uh potentially um discussions
[14:06] or presentations on a variety of topics
[14:12] in addition to having a few other
[14:14] elements similar to that so it is up to
[14:18] the subcommittee um what that um may be
[14:21] potentially uh additional elements or
[14:24] amenities that the event can
[14:28] have I would say the purpose and
[14:32] structure is yet to be
[14:34] determined and I apologize for not being
[14:38] here um last month I was still
[14:43] recovering from some
[14:45] surgery
[14:47] um
[14:50] so we have a lot of potential very much
[14:54] I got a pass for my wife so that was all
[14:57] I needed um so I think we will have to
[15:01] have in the committee a discussion of
[15:07] purpose absolutely and process wise um
[15:11] if the commission is good at with the um
[15:15] changes that was uh discussed now we can
[15:19] update that and then uh once the work
[15:22] plan is approved then we can start
[15:24] moving forward with um those two
[15:27] particular um work plan
[15:33] items uh if there're um if there
[15:38] is are there any other changes beside
[15:41] the ones that we have
[15:46] already I have a question if I want to
[15:49] be on a working group within this the
[15:53] health
[15:54] fair that's not on the work plane right
[15:58] no so what the work plan currently
[16:00] highlights are the ad hoc subcommittees
[16:03] and those are the overarching groups
[16:05] that are tasked with those particular
[16:08] pieces um from the training that we did
[16:11] at the last meeting um as the
[16:15] subcommittees go through and we can um
[16:18] adjust as needed to assign the working
[16:20] pairs um then we can identify those and
[16:24] add to that under those specific
[16:26] projects but we have not
[16:29] discussed or kind of talked about some
[16:31] of those um potential working pairs
[16:33] coming up as we start planning the
[16:35] events and then we can add that as we go
[16:39] forward but this just represents the
[16:41] current ad hoc committees that we
[16:45] have just because we meet so
[16:50] infrequently and I know of information
[16:53] that I'm going to be part of which would
[16:56] be helpful for choosing speakers or at
[16:59] least having access me choosing them how
[17:03] would I get that information out in
[17:05] between meetings
[17:08] say so it just in case I didn't have
[17:11] this information but I get it tomorrow
[17:13] and then I'm going oh I've got some
[17:15] great options in which I've got
[17:17] connections of people that would be
[17:20] working on this so how would I get that
[17:23] out to the group to go I think we can
[17:26] clarify in a second let Char go and then
[17:28] I want CL something go ahead so I wanted
[17:32] to ask if there was a a
[17:35] suitable provision made so that we can
[17:38] have subcomittees within the health care
[17:42] um or health
[17:44] fair uh plan so that we can now have you
[17:49] know there exists an ad hoc subcommittee
[17:52] but we can have another
[17:54] subcommittee so that we can decide all
[17:56] right this fair is going to choose maybe
[18:00] three areas in which they can find
[18:02] speakers this Fair sort of but since
[18:04] that would already mean you you are
[18:07] already on the October
[18:10] 2025 Halloween themed fall fling right
[18:14] but that's my adoc so I can be on she missed the meeting so she didn't get
[18:20] the that's what I needed to we have
[18:24] like created besides the sub commmittee
[18:27] a working care also so that's how we're
[18:30] going to get more people more people
[18:32] otherwise I was going to suggest that
[18:33] maybe we move up the due date for the
[18:35] Halloween te fall fling and we move it
[18:38] up ahead so that you're freed up in
[18:40] October well that's what I wanted to ask
[18:43] it's going to go to Council on the 25th
[18:45] of this month did and they get it
[18:48] beforehand so they review it do they
[18:50] approve it that night or do we hear
[18:52] later and if so how much later no you
[18:55] will get feed back you will the plan is
[18:59] to get feedback and to have that
[19:01] conversation with city council and that
[19:04] goes a little bit into the next item but
[19:07] correct so to do a brief overview into
[19:10] commissioner dixit's question the um the
[19:14] stipulation of Commissioners serving
[19:16] only on one is specific to the ad hoc
[19:19] subcommittee and the difference between
[19:22] that is that that's the larger task um
[19:25] an overarching group that is going to
[19:27] manage that there is the flexibility to
[19:30] create working pairs to help with
[19:32] smaller components of the larger tasks
[19:35] and you can be on as many working pairs
[19:38] as needed to help accomplish some of
[19:41] those things so the best example is with
[19:45] the ad hoc committee that was created
[19:47] for the health fair they're going to
[19:49] manage the overall um task of the event
[19:53] but you could create a working pair to
[19:56] contact vendors to work out speakers to
[20:01] look at maybe potential donations to
[20:05] looking at what is the layout going to
[20:07] be to what elements should be on the
[20:10] flyer um so all of those different
[20:13] pieces can be assigned so to the second
[20:16] point that commissioner Olen brought up
[20:19] is we want to get um uh approval of the
[20:23] work plan um and once that occurs then
[20:27] we can actually um it should be um an
[20:31] item for
[20:32] consideration and it could be then
[20:34] assigning the working pairs early on so
[20:38] that um and again since you can be on as
[20:41] many working pairs as needed we can then
[20:45] have that as an item for for
[20:47] consideration maybe March and April and
[20:50] we can assign those working pairs so
[20:52] that the Commissioners know and they
[20:55] have the opportunity to volunteer or
[20:58] sign up for those different pieces um
[21:01] and then in regards to sharing
[21:04] information um
[21:07] the if there is information that needs
[21:10] to be shared um
[21:12] obviously myself as the liazon can help
[21:15] be the conduit to get information out to
[21:18] the full commission if that's needed but
[21:21] in between I think your question is
[21:23] coming up
[21:26] really on how to or actually maybe let
[21:30] me make sure that I understand your
[21:31] question um am I understanding your
[21:33] question correctly commissioner Al or or
[21:37] am I missing the
[21:43] point unicate we're not duplicating
[21:47] we're not forgetting things even with
[21:49] working pairs uh and the ad hoc I still
[21:53] feel somewhat Shackled of you can't just
[21:55] come together and go let's have meeting
[21:59] and talk about it and I'll take this and we this needs to be
[22:03] done by this date and you you get a
[22:06] float theun how do we communicate
[22:10] because and and it's where I'm GNA add
[22:13] on is can we get can we work on
[22:17] assumption that the council will approve
[22:20] and we are and today we go I'll work on
[22:22] this working
[22:25] group so let's get the working plan done
[22:28] for somebody the work plan and so that
[22:31] date is final so I I would say um you
[22:35] can have
[22:37] some basic but we would want to hold on
[22:40] to making decisions until the work plan
[22:43] is
[22:44] final um in regards to the communication
[22:48] mechanism the intent of the working pair
[22:51] is that you can meet whether it's a
[22:54] single person or um a two people uh
[22:57] hence the title working pair you can
[23:00] meet as needed to achieve that specific
[23:03] task that you've been assigned now in
[23:06] regards to getting information back to
[23:08] maybe the ad hoc committee that should
[23:11] be done through the commission liaison
[23:13] myself so it it wouldn't because again
[23:17] then it's we get into a little bit of a
[23:19] wonkiness where you have the working
[23:22] pair and if there's then the ad hoc
[23:25] subcommittee which is three that's uh
[23:29] that's a a virtual meeting well let's
[23:32] not forget what she's trying to ask
[23:34] she's trying to get ahead of the game a
[23:36] little bit I think that's a good thing
[23:39] if we can we can start working me with
[23:42] the assumption that the work plan is
[23:44] going to get approved that's not a big
[23:46] leap of Fai so from that point of view
[23:50] why do we start the process of getting
[23:53] at least the agenda the vision the
[23:56] objective of the the the Health Group
[23:58] identified and possibly the pairs that
[24:01] are going to work within that uh
[24:04] framework identified and kept on keep on
[24:07] going because between now and September
[24:09] is not that much time because we have to
[24:11] get hold of vendors we have to identify
[24:13] what what needs to be done should we bring in speakers etc etc it's
[24:19] quite a bit of work to be done and given
[24:21] the fact that we don't meet that
[24:22] often you know just as creating as many
[24:26] meeting as possible is a good thing so
[24:29] anyway are we are we allowed to have
[24:31] zoom meetings can we can we Zoom between
[24:34] the subcommittee and the working
[24:37] pair so to that question so the again
[24:41] your working pair you can meet as needed
[24:44] to work on the task the ad hoc committee
[24:47] the ad hoc subcommittee can meet as
[24:49] needed so whether that's in person or
[24:51] Zoom completely up to the ad hoc
[24:55] subcommittee but the working pairs in
[24:57] the ad talk subcommittee should not be
[25:00] meeting because again that's a quorum
[25:02] and that should be a full commission
[25:04] meeting so there is and that I think was
[25:07] part of what uh uh Vice chair Olen was
[25:10] trying to get at is what is that
[25:12] mechanism for
[25:13] communication between those two and so
[25:16] working through the staff liaison would
[25:19] probably be the best in that fashion but
[25:22] then obviously during our regular
[25:25] meetings I I guess I I don't want the
[25:27] commission to to be afraid that you're
[25:29] only held held to those reg obviously we
[25:33] have our regular meetings which is once
[25:34] a month if it is determined needed that
[25:38] we need to do a special meeting we
[25:40] absolutely can um staff will be here to
[25:43] support um doing these larger scale
[25:47] events um but we have the opportunity it
[25:53] to meet as needed if that comes up um
[25:58] there is time before September
[26:01] potentially October for the um events
[26:04] that the commission is looking to host
[26:07] and so the first part would be to make
[26:10] sure we get through the approval of the
[26:12] work plan and then maybe really to
[26:15] Target so the ad hoc committees it might
[26:18] be good to schedule a meeting um leading
[26:21] into march to maybe Identify some of
[26:24] those working pairs that you might want
[26:26] to task the commission with potentially
[26:30] signing up for um but we can staff can
[26:34] assist in helping working through that
[26:35] as sub committee can the subcommittee
[26:38] meet
[26:40] before yes you can you absolutely can
[26:44] you can have multiple meetings if you
[26:48] want
[26:50] yep so you can do that pre-planning in
[26:53] preparation for March with the hope that
[26:56] the work plan is approved at the end of
[26:59] uh February
[27:03] sure thank you for clarifying yes so
[27:07] first things is somebody going to start
[27:09] a motion to approve this
[27:11] plan I move we approve the work plan I
[27:17] approve all in favor say I I
[27:24] opposing motion carries
[27:31] make that edit though about adding
[27:33] October correct I will add those not
[27:35] correct based upon
[27:41] yes um can we can we ask the question
[27:45] here uh does anybody have any thoughts
[27:48] on what topics we want to cover or what
[27:52] kinds of speakers we want to get so that
[27:55] we can start working pairs
[27:59] so I'm going to add in um I'm part of a
[28:03] group that we're meeting coming up in
[28:07] February
[28:08] 18th and they're talking about starting
[28:12] a and I need to talk to you afterwards
[28:16] because this would be great for adult 50
[28:18] plus but a speaker series for seniors in
[28:22] addition to what you're doing so that it
[28:26] is with with rotary the there's also a
[28:30] group forever
[28:32] active that we have a member dnie herd
[28:36] who has access to a number of seers and
[28:39] then we have our community service
[28:42] director who also has access and so that
[28:45] will
[28:46] be um a good resource for potential
[28:51] speakers want early knowledge of going
[28:54] ahead with making arrangements is that
[28:56] what you're saying it's but I think we
[28:58] also have to figure out what is it what
[29:01] is the goal for divisions of labor who is who is our target market for are
[29:08] we going to have different speakers for
[29:10] different age groups what is the goal
[29:12] for the health fair who are we trying to
[29:15] reach are we going to set it up where
[29:18] we're going for a certain particular age
[29:22] or what are the topics that we feel
[29:25] would be best benefited to
[29:28] I think that gets decided in the first
[29:30] meeting so we have let's have the first
[29:32] meeting we
[29:34] meet sub meeting yeah will determine the
[29:39] answers to your question yeah exactly
[29:42] the only the
[29:44] health but the sub commmittee meeting
[29:46] will only be three
[29:49] people yes so so let's let's four names
[29:55] yeah four no three names is one person
[30:00] yeah well that's what I was asking you
[30:03] can do it now with assumption
[30:05] that so maybe we can get a unofficial
[30:10] nod yes or no from somebody sitting in
[30:12] the room
[30:15] of in we can just talk right now about
[30:19] what
[30:21] top so um the only so the specific topic
[30:26] that we have is the work plan and this
[30:28] is going to get a little bit nuanced too
[30:30] we want to get the we want to get the
[30:33] work plan
[30:34] finalized but in regards to your
[30:36] question commissioner Dixit it's not a
[30:39] um we would want to make sure that we
[30:42] agendize the discussion of the health
[30:44] there if we want to discuss those
[30:46] specific pieces but I think what um
[30:50] commissioner buckolz was indicating is
[30:52] that the the sub the ad hoc subcommittee
[30:55] should meet first and and once we get
[30:59] the approval of the work plan for the
[31:01] meeting in March there can be then a
[31:04] full didn't we just get the that
[31:06] approval from the council from Council
[31:09] so the commission has approved the work
[31:12] plan that they would like to
[31:14] submit um and so the part I'm trying to
[31:17] go towards is commissioner
[31:19] Dixit once we get approval the workr
[31:22] plan from Council at the end of February
[31:26] we can then plan to agend I a larger
[31:29] discussion once the subcommittee the ad
[31:31] hoc subcommittee for the health fair has
[31:33] had a chance to discuss suggestions for
[31:37] purpose pieces that they would like to
[31:40] see it can come back to the full
[31:42] commission for um suggestions discussion
[31:46] for further consideration but that the
[31:50] discussion of the health fair is not a
[31:53] specific agenda topic today it was
[31:56] specific to the workpl
[31:59] may we ask people to send emails to us
[32:03] the
[32:04] speak
[32:07] no it's hard to see each other so I
[32:10] think I was you mentioned the previous
[32:13] Health that there was a lot of
[32:15] information available from it where is
[32:18] that information that say I wanted to
[32:20] read it
[32:22] just so all of that information staff
[32:25] has all of that information and as uh
[32:29] was mentioned previously we will be able
[32:31] to provide all of those contacts for the
[32:34] vendors that were um present at the
[32:39] October meeting or October event
[32:45] I I had a section for speakers we didn't
[32:48] have speakers whatever they did I was
[32:51] just curious and who were the vendors
[32:54] what type of
[32:55] vendors she'll be able to give that to you once it's been approved right
[33:01] correct do
[33:03] it oh no absolutely that information can
[33:06] be shared with the um with the ad hoc
[33:21] subcommittee that that information can
[33:23] be provided
[33:28] we're all going to be essentially
[33:29] working on this
[33:31] whether we can share it with the full
[33:34] commission that's not a
[33:35] problem but it would be uh and I guess
[33:38] it would depend on um obviously the the
[33:42] ad hoc subcommittee can utilize that
[33:44] information and then it could
[33:46] potentially be expanded upon um
[33:48] depending if the ad hoc committee takes
[33:50] that on or if an a working pair is
[33:52] assigned to to work on that as well
[33:55] too I guess my request for today was
[33:59] steming from the fact that if the ad hoc
[34:01] committee meets at any time before our
[34:03] next full commission meeting we who are
[34:07] not part of that ad hoc committee will
[34:08] not have our chance to say our wonderful
[34:12] suggestions that they should have
[34:15] because we think we have wonderful
[34:16] suggestions so if the adop committee
[34:19] meets without those suggestions
[34:20] potentially those aspects won't get
[34:23] covered and that's why I wanted to run
[34:27] ahead and talk about it now but I
[34:30] understand those are rules so no and
[34:33] again that can be agendized for March so
[34:36] that um again the ad hoc committee can
[34:39] make recommendations but the commission
[34:41] at that point when it's agend uh
[34:44] potentially for March you would be able
[34:46] to share that information at that time
[34:48] too she mustn't do it before the
[34:50] subcommittee meets I know this is
[34:52] sounding a lot like the the stuff that's
[34:55] going on in our federal government
[34:59] seriously it's not quite that bad can we
[35:02] talk about what we want this thing to be
[35:05] and just say we want to have these kind
[35:07] of vendors we want to have these kind of
[35:10] topics there is wisdom at the other end
[35:13] of the
[35:16] take suggestion I don't know if it's okay or not but would it be okay if
[35:22] we communicated through email if they
[35:25] individually s not as the group
[35:28] individually send emails to the three of
[35:31] us that are on the ad hoc committee with
[35:33] their ideas what people would like to do
[35:36] what they you know so it's not
[35:39] interactive they have to go through you
[35:42] be better and I I I know it
[35:46] feels limiting in that sense but at the
[35:50] Crux of it is to make sure that it's a
[35:53] transparent process for the public to be
[35:55] a part of it and I think that's the the big part of it is that when it's
[36:02] these individual emails or meetings or
[36:05] it is not agendized or put on an agenda
[36:09] so that the public knows that they can
[36:11] then be a part of that conversation
[36:13] either through public comment or be part
[36:16] of that discussion that's the part that
[36:18] we're trying to make sure is achieved
[36:21] that it is an open process I know
[36:24] initially and I think that's why I want
[36:26] to elay the commission's fears that I
[36:29] know we are in February but I think
[36:33] process-wise we will have ample time to
[36:36] have that discussion and we'll we'll
[36:40] start those basic pieces but again we
[36:43] want to make sure that the work plan is
[36:46] approved first you can do some basic
[36:49] planning with the assumption that the council will be good with these
[36:55] um pieces that you're putting forward in
[36:57] the work work plan and all of those
[36:59] discussions can happen at the March
[37:02] meeting it just means that the ad hoc
[37:04] committees that have been assigned
[37:06] should do some work this month so that
[37:10] come March you can make some
[37:12] recommendations for what those what
[37:15] support you might need through working
[37:18] pairs or Commissioners that are not part
[37:22] of the ad hoc subcommittees you can then
[37:25] make recommendations like I would love
[37:27] to be a part of selecting vendors or
[37:30] coming up with topics I'm just using the
[37:32] healthare because that seems to be the
[37:34] topic of most interest at this point but
[37:37] then you can make um suggestions of I'm
[37:40] really passionate about this and would
[37:42] love to assist with this specific can
[37:45] send that to
[37:48] you okay yes and that can be in
[37:50] preparation for March once all of these
[37:54] pieces fall into place
[37:57] will you will you insert that in the
[37:59] agenda packet for March the suggestions
[38:01] that you get from Individual emails to
[38:03] you will we know absolutely if there are suggestions or reports and
[38:11] um us as staff usually reach out ahead
[38:14] of the um putting the packet together to
[38:17] see if there are any reports by the
[38:19] subcommittee so that can be included as
[38:22] well to make sure that the discussion in
[38:25] March is is as pointed as it can be do
[38:30] we need to agenda that formally for
[38:34] March on on fut agenda yes page two of
[38:39] the agenda it's on
[38:41] now I'm
[38:45] here did you want
[38:47] say so Jim are you on the committee oh
[38:52] yes I am what what what was what's the
[38:56] question when their next meeting with
[38:58] the that I guess this came up last in
[39:01] the last meeting I think the idea was
[39:04] the subcommittee would be not fully
[39:07] empowered to run this this threat but is
[39:11] empowered to come up with ideas that we
[39:14] can then bring to commission and discuss
[39:16] it as a commission so the first meeting
[39:18] of sub subcommittee ought to be done as
[39:21] soon as possible in order to have
[39:23] something to discuss with the full
[39:24] commission in J in March so if that is
[39:27] the case then um what we what we
[39:30] expecting to happen hopefully is within
[39:33] the next week or
[39:34] so the members sub
[39:38] committee can you wait for a
[39:41] second members of subcommittee in
[39:43] addition to an staff member get together
[39:46] and go through the objective setting the
[39:49] agendas what what we do and more or less
[39:51] get to a point where we have we are at a
[39:54] pretty good first base to bring it to
[39:56] the commission
[39:57] in March so I think the B is in your
[40:00] court to get us together
[40:03] right yes we can be CH okay thank you I
[40:07] just say an obvious thing it's called
[40:08] the health fair so I'm assuming all the
[40:11] topics should be related somehow with
[40:15] help well I have a topic that you'll
[40:17] never think of and that's I think we
[40:19] should do something on AI and help
[40:23] because that's the thing that everybody
[40:26] is interested in right
[40:31] now we had a terrific lecture after the
[40:35] lunch AI for seniors it was amazing it
[40:37] was great so you know it so yeah an
[40:41] example just email I'm doing that at my
[40:45] senior place on AI not that talk but
[40:49] another talk on AI
[40:52] very di the help and that draws people
[40:55] it would be amazed some many people came
[40:58] to the AI for seniors it wasn't a place
[41:01] to
[41:03] sit okay any other comments I'm just
[41:06] wondering if Sally might have any
[41:09] comments or thoughts regarding
[41:10] healthcare what what you might know
[41:15] of from your input from being on the
[41:19] council and talking to people and maybe
[41:22] questions that might come up because if
[41:24] we're in the planning stage additional
[41:26] input would be
[41:29] appreciated I'm in a caveat anything I
[41:32] ever say with this commission is my
[41:34] input and what you're ideally going to
[41:37] get is Council input um so I can make
[41:41] recommendations but I don't speak for
[41:43] the council per
[41:46] se so I didn't attend that healthare I I
[41:50] didn't um for whatever reason I didn't
[41:54] actually I knew it was going on but not
[41:56] kind of till the last minute so I hadn't
[41:58] if it's not in my calendar it doesn't
[42:00] exist right um so I I don't feel I can
[42:04] really give you uh great input but I
[42:08] know it's certainly a topic that
[42:11] everyone's interested in I imagine that
[42:14] Council would be interested one thing
[42:16] when you do talk about your work plan
[42:18] and the health fair appears to be a big
[42:20] part of that is and you talk about
[42:24] Council approving work plans it's not
[42:26] been and we've gotten into trouble with
[42:28] this including recently it's not been
[42:32] explicit in many cases we have a nice
[42:35] conversation thank you this was great
[42:38] and then we don't necessarily approve it
[42:43] explicitly and so if I were the chair
[42:46] assuming you can be there um Jane I
[42:50] would
[42:51] say if we don't ask it because I'm very
[42:54] attuned to it now a lot of commissions
[42:56] walk out and think their plan is
[42:58] approved and but we don't go through a
[43:00] formal process so I would be willing to
[43:03] ask if if for example myself being
[43:06] sensitized don't
[43:07] say Council you want to find out council
[43:11] do you approve this work
[43:13] plan because there are examples where
[43:16] Council said oh you need to prioritize
[43:19] there's too much in here and then that
[43:21] Loof is never closed and then the
[43:24] commission we we so if we don't have ask
[43:27] you first or state first please do ask
[43:31] because it's important and then because
[43:34] we can go back and watch that video and
[43:35] say Council explicitly approved this
[43:37] work
[43:39] plan so I I would do that that's just
[43:42] you know from experience and if the
[43:45] health care um if the
[43:48] healthare is a big part of it then
[43:51] identify that say here's our biggest
[43:53] project for the year here's some other
[43:56] things we're going to be doing you know
[43:57] partnering this doing these events
[43:59] whatever so just really make it um spell
[44:02] it out clear and and how important
[44:05] because I think the council will not
[44:08] have no problem now I'm speaking for
[44:09] myself projecting to the council but
[44:12] they should probably we should probably
[44:13] have no problems um with what you put
[44:17] together but Clarity is often lacking
[44:20] after these meetings so there's my tip
[44:27] yeah yeah thank you so much
[44:32] sample put it on the agenda please for
[44:35] March that we will be talking about this
[44:37] after your
[44:38] subcommittee it's not on the agenda yet
[44:41] for March let's see somebody do the
[44:45] formal
[44:46] things move that we
[44:49] discuss so that it is currently planned
[44:52] and also too we can uh we can make sure
[44:56] that the next meeting in March um when
[44:59] we have that discussion at the end for
[45:01] future agenda topics that we make sure
[45:03] to hit that as
[45:06] well
[45:15] yes we
[45:16] good is there anything else about the
[45:18] work
[45:25] plan I
[45:28] um I met with staff and Jamie and
[45:33] discussing
[45:34] [Music]
[45:37] um has seized the benefit of um social
[45:43] activity for seniors and support the uh
[45:48] Halloween fling and initially supporting
[45:52] the
[45:53] springling um and so we talked about
[45:58] what Club 55 would be in charge of and
[46:01] then also what the city would be in
[46:03] charge of um it does need to get
[46:07] approved in June but it's
[46:11] where it
[46:13] filling our action plan and Community it
[46:17] seems to be totally in line and so I'm
[46:20] meeting with
[46:22] public5 on Wednesday and getting more
[46:26] information because it's it's um working
[46:29] with them and um getting more details
[46:33] and so so may I ask what Club 55
[46:39] does sure the Club 55 originated back in
[46:44] 2011 after the first action plan that
[46:48] was approved by
[46:52] um by the city it was when they talked
[46:56] with senior seniors basically wanted a
[46:59] time and a place to get together and
[47:00] just chat sit and have a beer or
[47:03] whatever so they would they started
[47:05] meeting behind the costume bank and you
[47:09] bring you bring a bottle of wine to
[47:11] shares and they themselves were
[47:14] supporting it with with some food and so
[47:17] it just became a regular thing monthly
[47:21] and it became the community of
[47:27] so it has
[47:30] um been it has worked with the Community
[47:35] Foundation they work greatly with the
[47:37] city and the city supports it and now
[47:41] they are holding the once a month from
[47:43] April through October the third Friday
[47:47] uh here and so the city has been a great
[47:52] help um and so the thought is just to
[47:56] bring back the Spring Fling was the
[47:59] whole purpose where City also backed it
[48:03] back then back in
[48:07] 2000 2018 so and that was put on by the
[48:10] senior commission so the senior
[48:13] commission has been lowkey for a while
[48:17] and it's another way to bring the
[48:21] community together so I if I understand
[48:24] senior commission would help with Club
[48:27] 55 hosting from April through October
[48:30] once a month no not alone no just the
[48:34] senior commission is helping with the
[48:35] Halloween fling and and then if that
[48:40] goes well the Spring Fling in 20125 and
[48:44] then we'll see where it goes from there
[48:47] but 26 excuse me uh and so it's a way of
[48:52] supporting the community and building
[48:54] the community those
[48:58] W so October will be very active
[49:02] for
[49:04] why the discussion of moving the health
[49:06] fair having it in September because then
[49:09] we have something in October and so that
[49:13] way you can spread the wealth ofor
[49:15] commission if you want to be healthy or
[49:18] have
[49:21] fun yeah can you say when is the
[49:25] Halloween f October
[49:29] 17th the third Friday it's in
[49:32] conjunction with first
[49:36] the first first Friday I'm getting that
[49:39] third Friday third Friday yeah 55 to
[49:43] Friday of the
[49:51] month there a history with Club 55 with
[49:55] the city would
[49:57] um adult 50 plus and so
[50:02] just yeah it was it was one of the um
[50:06] agenda items on the P for this week it's
[50:09] agenda item number three there's a
[50:11] summary about it so take a key because
[50:14] it gives you a little bit more
[50:15] information that might
[50:20] help so those are the two main things I
[50:24] three because of the sprinkling too but
[50:26] is there anything else that we need
[50:29] to discuss just for
[50:33] clarification one of the things that
[50:36] will be presented at the Joint council
[50:39] meeting will be a presentation from the
[50:43] adhoc committee on the health
[50:50] s so uh so quick so quick question um or
[50:55] it have we moved to item three or are we
[51:00] still
[51:01] [Music]
[51:03] on we have so um the the and that I'll
[51:07] be able to answer your question um
[51:10] commissioner Buck Hol so um item three
[51:14] is specifically to prepare for your
[51:17] joint meeting with city council um so
[51:20] there is um a number of commissions that
[51:24] will be presenting between six and 7
[51:27] p.m. on Tuesday February 25th that is
[51:31] the second meeting for city council this
[51:34] month um essentially each commission
[51:38] will have between 10 to I would say
[51:42] maybe at the highest maybe 15 minutes um
[51:45] and within that time frame there are two
[51:50] recommended areas is first to talk about
[51:53] what was accomplished in the last term
[51:57] and so in your packet I did include the
[52:00] last work plan which included all of the
[52:03] items um that were completed and then a
[52:07] conversation of the current work plan so
[52:11] because of the condensed time
[52:15] frame I I think we want to and that's
[52:18] part of where the commission would need
[52:20] to determine is maybe what who's going
[52:24] to say what who is going to to cover
[52:27] what so that there are some specific
[52:29] time frames so that we can stay within
[52:32] that 10 to 10 to 15 minutes that have
[52:35] been allotted for each commission during
[52:38] that time frame so I if there is an
[52:42] interest from the commission to do a
[52:44] focus on the healthare you can determine
[52:48] that um but my point is that you have a
[52:52] finite time and you want to make sure
[52:55] you cover what was accomplished where
[52:58] you would like to go and those um as uh
[53:02] Council me member Meadows highlighted if
[53:05] there is something specific like
[53:07] approving the work plan or if there is a
[53:11] really important piece you want to get
[53:13] across if it is the health fair or the
[53:15] collaboration with Club
[53:17] 55 this is the time to kind of identify
[53:21] who is and what points would be brought
[53:23] up during that uh conversation or
[53:26] discuss
[53:28] so I with that I will turn that back
[53:30] over
[53:31] to to attend the
[53:38] [Music]
[53:39] meeting Tuesday February 25th at 6
[53:45] PM they moved it up because that wasn't
[53:48] going to be enough time for all the
[53:49] people but anyway okay so we need a
[53:52] structure so we usually go first senior
[53:54] commission usually goes first so we're
[53:55] hoping for that that and um so the
[53:59] structure would be
[54:02] um thank you all thank you so much for
[54:05] inviting us to this um what we want to
[54:08] do first is review things that we've
[54:09] completed over the last year and the
[54:12] main thing that we've completed is the
[54:15] age friendly uh project with the action
[54:18] plan I mean that was Major Beyond major
[54:21] and um we did have a consultant but
[54:23] there was tons of work that we did and
[54:26] we're going forward with the action plan
[54:28] it's not really one the work plan yet
[54:31] some of this stuff is drawn from it but
[54:34] anyway so that that's the that's the
[54:36] historical what we've completed already
[54:39] does anybody else have anything else
[54:40] that they think should be covered under
[54:43] that a previous healthare
[55:02] but it was at
[55:07] thei no actually
[55:12] um anything
[55:14] else context for
[55:17] our emphasis on another house
[55:20] there because we are continuing this
[55:23] that's that's going to be on our work
[55:25] plan going forward so that second part
[55:28] two part one is the historical what
[55:30] we've done so far and
[55:34] health
[55:36] heal was part of our
[55:39] history the age friendly project with
[55:42] developing of the action plan and and
[55:45] the previous health fair those are the
[55:46] two also what else wanted to add that
[55:50] you know when we were working on the age
[55:52] Trend plan um we had a chance to
[55:55] interview
[55:57] several of the groups that meet here
[55:59] during the senior commission or the
[56:01] adult 50 plus and some of the topics
[56:04] that uh we they suggested including uh
[56:09] having speakers for the health care so
[56:12] that is also part of the history that
[56:13] we've already done and we're progressing
[56:15] towards
[56:18] okay but adding the speaker idea with
[56:21] Topic in addition to the exhib
[56:29] anything else okay so then going forward
[56:33] we're going to be looking at the newest
[56:35] work plan going the one we have active
[56:38] now and the two major things are the
[56:41] healthare and the Club 55 project those
[56:45] two
[56:52] things so um on the age friendly does
[56:57] anyone want to discuss
[57:00] that I I'll take that one okay I'll take
[57:04] that one and then what about can someone
[57:07] describe the the U previous health
[57:10] fair who ATT I did did was I the only
[57:15] one you got two
[57:17] chances but I can't oh you can't
[57:21] be okay um
[57:26] okay so so then I was the only one okay
[57:29] well pencil me in but you know I don't
[57:32] want to bore them to tears with my voice
[57:34] anyway and then adding the speaker you
[57:38] GNA be there who is g to be there raise
[57:40] your hand you GNA be there three
[57:45] people
[57:47] okay okay so um bill can you talk about
[57:51] that adding the speakers on to the
[57:53] healthcare part yes okay
[57:58] so how much time do we have the whole
[58:00] thing is 15 minutes so it's like three
[58:02] minutes two minutes you know four and
[58:04] they might have questions to in between
[58:07] sometimes we pause so we have to that
[58:10] too contrary to the popular Bel I can be
[58:16] tur well you can be brief without being
[58:19] tur so I know you
[58:22] okay let's not alienate the council um
[58:26] okay so then going
[58:28] forward the health there going forward
[58:31] anyone talk about
[58:35] that bill okay and then the Club
[58:38] 55 Chris you're not going to be there so
[58:41] who else no one knows about it then I
[58:42] guess well we're working together okay
[58:44] so can you up can you get up can you
[58:46] read the hand out and then maybe talk to
[58:48] Chris a little bit and let her she'll
[58:50] give maybe you can give some bullet
[58:51] points that's all we need to have bullet
[58:53] points so we can make the points that we
[58:55] want
[58:56] make when you say presentation inste
[58:59] like a PowerPoint no it's
[59:03] not have the written thing in front of
[59:05] them the work plan and they sit like
[59:08] that part and then we come up when they
[59:11] call us we come up and we have chairs
[59:14] right this is the way it was before we
[59:16] have chairs right before them and
[59:19] there's a little there's more distance
[59:20] it's a wider table so you're not right
[59:22] on top of them and then um they welcome
[59:25] us and then I've done it before in
[59:27] another commission okay good kept saying
[59:29] bullet point so I thinking just power
[59:34] just so that we don't go you know on and
[59:36] on now we don't need we don't need a
[59:37] power point so just to be keep yourself
[59:42] concise because it's going to get
[59:44] expanded somehow anyway and then they're
[59:46] going to ask
[59:48] questions okay so let's see so the

[1:06:52] it what this um the National walking day
[1:06:56] involves Grand Park you walk around
[1:07:00] Grant Park yes so we have a couple of
[1:07:03] different volunteer leaders who are
[1:07:04] going to be hosting different walks

[1:07:17] stay we'll have a loop so you'll never
[1:07:19] be more than away from water and
[1:07:21] restrooms for some of the moderate and
[1:07:24] to Advanced Walkers we have have some
[1:07:25] different Loops available inside of
[1:07:28] Grand Park the whole time no we plan to
[1:07:31] have uh some guides down to the city
[1:07:35] streets it'll be all flat walk yes I'm
[1:07:38] going to encourage everyone although I
[1:07:40] don't want to do it
[1:07:41] but I
[1:07:43] just um and then with that um we do have
[1:07:48] um Amina uh from Los Altos Hills um and
[1:07:52] she can share the information on the
[1:07:54] Flyers specifically to Hill hello
[1:07:58] everyone so um what you have in front of
[1:08:00] you is the drive-thru shred event flyer
[1:08:04] um this is actually exclusive only to
[1:08:06] lasos Hills residents um but if you are
[1:08:09] a resident feel free to come to town
[1:08:11] hall on March 22nd from 8:00 a.m. to
[1:08:14] 11:00 a.m. um we will have a big uh
[1:08:19] truck that shreds documents there and
[1:08:21] one big difference this time around is
[1:08:23] that you're allowed to bring up to 15
[1:08:26] boxes where in the past um you were only
[1:08:28] allowed to bring five so that's a huge
[1:08:31] increase but um we figured there's there
[1:08:33] tends to be a lot of space in the truck
[1:08:35] left over so we decided to increase it
[1:08:38] this
[1:08:41] year thank
[1:08:45] you that that is available to residents
[1:08:49] of losos
[1:08:51] as no it is specific to Los Altos Hills
[1:08:54] residents and I know there has been um
[1:08:58] some individuals have expressed an
[1:09:00] interest in having um the city of Los
[1:09:02] Altos host something so that is
[1:09:04] something that we can take a look at but
[1:09:06] the one that um Amina mentioned is
[1:09:10] specific to
[1:09:15] Los all
[1:09:19] right
[1:09:21] okay that is it any any questions on um
[1:09:26] any of the event information that we've
[1:09:29] shared
[1:09:32] okay to um future agenda items oh we
[1:09:37] have um
[1:09:39] stock just one um and it is just to
[1:09:42] share that we have um our spring summer

[1:10:43] my only other additional update just
[1:10:45] make an observation uh very nice
[1:10:47] observation in the winter guide the
[1:10:51] front page had a little lady who hails
[1:10:54] from India
[1:10:56] and she comes to play yeah exactly and
[1:11:00] uh many of us know her but in her Indian
[1:11:03] sori attire not playing games with other
[1:11:06] people that kind of thing but it has
[1:11:08] generated such a positive response to
[1:11:10] see her there and it was you know
[1:11:13] unbeknownst to her that somebody took a
[1:11:15] picture now a lot of people want to
[1:11:17] participate and come out and so I think
[1:11:20] it's very positive very positive thday
[1:11:23] morning th
[1:11:26] wonderful to hear thank you Center in
[1:11:29] that picture it's so
[1:11:31] cute okay thank you okay any other oral
[1:11:34] anything else we good okay then we're
[1:11:37] moving on
[1:11:39] to sub committee reports I don't think
[1:11:41] we have any we already kind of discussed
[1:11:44] that okay let's move on to Future gender
[1:11:46] items the work plan is still on the
[1:11:49] health fair will be on and um do we need
[1:11:53] a b cling on for next time
[1:11:56] too it's okay is there anything else
[1:12:00] that we have to um put on for March go
[1:12:03] ahead I know that
[1:12:08] the healthare is going to have
[1:12:11] speakers you
[1:12:14] know I have a strong feeling that it
[1:12:18] will
[1:12:19] include go
[1:12:22] ahead is there a way of t
[1:12:26] multiple sources of speakers we talked
[1:12:29] about having the speaker
[1:12:32] series uh and this would
[1:12:34] be basically from my network of Health
[1:12:39] Care
[1:12:40] people
[1:12:42] um is this something that we would want
[1:12:47] to have is this ongoing service to the
[1:12:52] community
[1:12:55] that we would have a speaker
[1:12:57] series well there's speakers already
[1:13:00] once a month in conjunction with the
[1:13:03] lunch but at the community center um
[1:13:06] there are speakers at various other
[1:13:09] venues like
[1:13:11] aanas they have an AI talk also um
[1:13:16] there's other outfits that I want to
[1:13:20] have speakers on different topics so I'm
[1:13:23] not sure if you're say the was
[1:13:25] sponsoring that the question is should
[1:13:29] we have a
[1:13:33] non-competing speaker series maybe a
[1:13:36] couple times a
[1:13:38] month so it's it's outside of the
[1:13:41] boundaries of the healthare it's a new
[1:13:43] topic you're talking about so that would
[1:13:45] be so would you like to add that on to
[1:13:46] the Future agenda items a speaker series
[1:13:49] that be very nice so it sounds like and
[1:13:52] we have at least three Commissioners
[1:13:54] that are interested an agenda
[1:13:59] okay anybody
[1:14:02] else I would say that would be something
[1:14:05] to work closely with Chris on because he
[1:14:08] has the speakers currently and it would
[1:14:11] be potentially an
[1:14:14] ad not
[1:14:16] necessarily uh buting H right know and
[1:14:21] what we could do um Logistics wise is
[1:14:25] the commission could have a discussion
[1:14:28] on recommend uh recommendations for
[1:14:31] different topics and then that could be
[1:14:34] forwarded to City staff um to take into
[1:14:37] consideration as they're programming
[1:14:39] those a variety of things because as um
[1:14:43] Vice chair olon mentioned uh we do um a
[1:14:47] handful and if there are recommendations
[1:14:49] by the commission to maybe increase
[1:14:51] frequency or the types or topics um that
[1:14:55] could be part of the
[1:14:57] discussion thinking
[1:15:02] frequency we're gonna talk about because
[1:15:05] things are changing pretty fast yes
[1:15:10] sure just as the last thing Sally we'
[1:15:13] like to welcome you again to join our
[1:15:15] convention we so excited and we're
[1:15:17] really happy that you chose us that's
[1:15:19] wonderful and we're wondering if you
[1:15:22] might have any suggestions at this point
[1:15:24] or we know your first meeting
[1:15:27] and but we'll see you at the at the
[1:15:29] Joint meeting yeah that's what I was
