RECOMMENDATION: Confirm Dee Dyball, Sonja Eden, Margarete Thompson, Goldie Nannes and Mary Konjoyan to the Senior Advisory Board as recommended by the current Members of the Board and Senior Center staff. BACKGROUND: Annual membership review of the Senior Advisory Board is completed in May of each year. Currently there are three positions available for appointment and two new vacancies. The Senior Advisory Board was created to advise staff on programs for the health and well-being of senior citizens and to insure that seniors are always a part of the program planning. Terms for membership on the Board are two years. Maintaining an active Board is a requirement of the Senior Center Bond Act which provided a $450,000 grant to help fund the construction of the facility. Qualifications for membership on the Board include being at least fifty-five years of age and an involvement and interest in Senior Center programming. A subcommittee comprised of Senior Advisory Board members and Senior Center staff interviewed interested applicants and recommended the most qualified candidates to the City Council. The Senior Advisory Board was designed to provide input and feedback to staff regarding programs. After City Council confirmation, new members will be installed at the next meeting of the Senior Advisory Board, scheduled for July 22, 1999 at 3:00 p.m. at the Tustin Area Senior Center. / Jir~ Box / S/upervisor, ~ommunity Services Patrick Sanchez Director, Parks and Recreation Services
