ADRC on an open house with Dane County State Legislative
Delegates. Meetings can start as Zoom for planning phase.
ADRC Board member Esther Olson also presented on the
plan that Ken Golden will be working with her on. Plan to
have two members from AAA Board and AAA
Legislative/Advisory Committee join Esther and Ken with the
planning.
b. Proposal to End AAA Access Committee and Formulate a AAA Advisory Council
(Riley)
RILEY explained that AAA would like the Access
committee to be disband and Advisory Council be
formed. Older Americans Act and 2025-27 Aging Plan
requires having an Advisory Council. The two current
members on the Access Committee have agreed to be
part of the Advisory Council. RILEY presented the first
draft of the by-laws of the Advisory Council. There is a list
of providers and community members from the Aging
Plan discussion groups who were interested in being on
an Advisory Council with AAA. Council will not have AAA
Board members but 9 -15 members of the community
and 50% of total members to be over 60+ years old.
FARSETTA requested if Case Management quarterly
reporting could be shared with AAA Governing Board with
the end of Access Committee.
