| Multiple day trip policy. Ridley has concerns that the Senior Center is using its manpower to do | ||||||||||
| the travel agencies job concerning the trips. She would like the seniors to sign up with the agency, | ||||||||||
| not at the center. The concern is that too much time is spent on the extended trips, which might | ||||||||||
| take away from the day to day duties. She also has concerns about township liability. | ||||||||||
| Moved by Ridley, seconded by Scott that effective January 1, 2010, no money, passports, or travel | ||||||||||
| documents concerning extended trips will be kept at the Senior Center. | ||||||||||
| The Senior Center Board of Directors would like more time to handle the extended trip policy. They | ||||||||||
| feel that the Director should have a specific job description so the Director knows what is expected | ||||||||||
| of her. The assistant should also be more informed so she can also perform her job effectively | ||||||||||
| Ridley rescinded her motion and Scott rescinded his support. | ||||||||||
| It was decided that the Senior Center Board of Directors will present a proposed policy at the Board | ||||||||||
| meeting that will be held on October 5, 2009. | ||||||||||
