Mitchel/Dorfman PUBLIC DISCUSSION: None. DISCUSSION OF COMMISSION VISITS: No commissioner could attend a City Council meeting or Board of Supervisors meeting. FY19 OPERATIONAL BUDGET UPDATE: Kopping reported that the budget has been reviewed by City management. While there were a few changes made, they were minor. Kopping will present the budget to the City Council in early January. Commissioner Weber joined the meeting. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW: 1 Preliminary Minutes December 14, 2017 Kopping reported that the morning receptionist has been out ill for some time. She is planning on coming back next Monday. The afternoon receptionist gave notice earlier this week, effective immediately. The position has been posted. The fall Friends of the Center appeal letters were sent out the first week of December. This year targeted fundraising letters were sent out to three different groups of people. Since November 15th (about the time Friends started receiving donations due to the annual report being released) there have been 63 donations totaling $12,257. This is slightly more than received during the same timeframe last year. The Friends of the Center website is very near completion and will be launched by the end of the year. The last step is to have a handful of participants look at the site for feedback. Kopping said when the site is live there will be a press - release as well as events to showcase the new site. Buhman reported that the new program guide is now available and registration started this week. She noted that some of the ongoing classes that previously did not have a membership requirement now do. Buhman noted that the fall programs had been well received. One highlight was the Red Cedar Chamber Music. After this event a participant said to Buhman that they think of the Senior Center more and more as a cultural center. Buhman also noted that a presentation about the architecture of downtown Iowa City by Steve Stimmel was attended by over 60 people. Stimmel is an architect from Des Moines. He expressed his desire do another presentation due to the enthusiasm of Senior Center participants. Buhman will have an intern this spring who is a student in the Aging and Longevity studies program and the University of Iowa. She will be working on putting together a brain health fair and working on donor recognition. Commissioner Bowen questioned the difference between a material fee as opposed to a fee for a book. He thought there may be confusion regarding the difference since one is listed under the name of a class and one is listed in the descriptive text. Buhman explained that a material fee is money that is paid directly to the Senior Center but occasionally there may be book or other materials, for example art supplies, that must be purchased to participant in the class. The commission discussed different ways to make materials purchased by a participant clearer. COMMISSION DISCUSSION: 2 Preliminary Minutes December 14, 2017 Kopping thanked Commissioner Holbrook for his years of service on the commission. She noted his presence at many Senior Center events and help partnering with various organizations. Mitchell noted that since Elder Services has partnered with Horizons for the congregate meal the quality of the food has increased. She noted that it seems like more people are also coming for the meal. Commissioner Clamon was reappointed for another term. Jay Honohan was also reappointed but decided to decline the appointment. This leaves an opening on the Commission that must be filled by a male who lives in Iowa City. Commissioners discussed the election of officers and will put a slate together for the next meeting.
