body
BACKGROUND
There are currently four vacancies due to term expiration and resignations on the Napa/Solano Area Agency on Aging Oversight Board. The County Executive Office advertised the vacancies and received one application from Mary G. Palmer.
In order to best meet the needs of the seniors of Napa County, the Area Agency on Aging serving Napa and Solano Oversight Board includes two members of the public from each County. One member must be at least 60 years of age. The second representative is considered the at-large representative, and will have voting rights every other year, alternating with the at-large representative from Solano County. This will allow the best possible representation for our seniors.
The Oversight Board will be responsible for reviewing data collected and approving a 4-year area plan, as well as recommending contracted services to implement that plan. The Oversight Board will be supported by a 16-member advisory council, and staff support will be provided by Solano County, as the lead administrative agency for the AAA. While only 26% of the senior population in the two counties resides in Napa County, we have equal representation on both the Oversight Board and the Advisory Council to ensure quality services to our seniors.
Requested Action:
Reappoint Mary G. Palmer to the Napa/Solano Area Agency on Aging Oversight Board.
