Wales Council on Aging approves revised minutes-approval procedure. Members Lynn, Analia, Dennis, Jackie, and Director Cheri voted unanimously to require sign-in sheets and a three-member quorum for approval. The council reviewed resident feedback on meals and transportation from questionnaires, with seniors requesting first-of-month grocery pickup and expressing concerns about meal saltiness.
Director Cheri reported the annual budget includes increases for van operations due to gas prices and expanded medical transportation to Worcester, Springfield, Palmer, and Sturbridge, as well as kitchen staff reclassification and restoration of an outreach program previously covered by a lost grant.
