2001 - Saginaw County

Board of Commissioners February 27, 2001
FROM: COMMITTEE ON HUMAN SERVICES -- 3.1 February 27, 2001
Your committee has considered communication no. 1-23-18 from Karen
Courneya, Director, Saginaw County Commission on Aging asking
approval to amend the COA bylaws. The amendment is additional
language, approved by County Counsel, regarding conflict of
interest issues. It reads as follows:
ARTICLE VI
Board of Directors
Section V: Conflict of Interest
A member who is contemplating a specific business transaction
or contract, either directly or indirectly with the
Saginaw County Commission on Aging, must make the Board
cognizant of said interest and it shall be recorded in
the Minutes; and further, shall not be allowed until
approved by 3/4's of the membership.
It is our recommendation that the request from the Saginaw County
Commission on Aging to amend the COA bylaws be approved, as
submitted; further, that a copy remain on file in the Board
Office. Respectfully submitted,
COMMITTEE ON HUMAN SERVICES
Robert M. Woods, Chair
Thomas A. Basil
Connie D. Smith, Vice-Chair
Robert D. Blaine
Robert L. Fish
By Commissioner Smith: That the Report of the Committee be
received and the recommendations contained therein be adopted.
Approved.
FROM: COMMITTEE ON HUMAN SERVICES -- 3.2 February 27, 2001
Your committee has considered communication no. 2-27-11 from Karen
Courneya, Director, Saginaw County Commission on Aging asking
approval to delete two on-call Senior Center Managers (currently
vacant) and add one regular part-time Senior Center Manager
position at the Eleanor Frank Center.
During the last two years it has been difficult to recruit
employees for the on-call positions, and it seems appropriate to
make changes based on the inability to fill this position as it is
now structured. The Commission on Aging budget will support any
additional cost.
It is our recommendation that the request from the Saginaw County
Commission on Aging to delete two on-call Senior Center Managers
and add a regular part-time Senior Center Manager be approved. We
further recommend the proper County officials be authorized to
make the necessary changes to the personnel complement.
Respectfully submitted,
COMMITTEE ON HUMAN SERVICES

APPROPRIATIONS AUTHORIZATION: It is the recommendation of your
committee to concur with the above.
