Middletown Senior Center Posts Meeting

Yes, yes, I know that it's all "political" and they have always been observing current open meeting laws. Wait a minute, that's right, I ran as an Independent. I am not the current V.P. of the Middletown Democratic Town Committee. But the Sr. Ctr. Director is. I digress.

I rec'd the meeting notice for the Wed. meeting 3 pm. Re:
DIRECTOR'S REPORT ; OLD BUSINESS: CURTAINS, COOKBOOK, RAFFLE BASKETS;
NEW BUSINESS: PURCHASE OF A Wii

All really important stuff.

The second was filed an hr. later:

ANNUAL REPORT ELECTION OF OFFICERS CBG GRANT LEGISLATIVE GRANT
BUDGET CORRESPONDENCE

A slightly more ambitious agenda. Never has "Correspondence" been on the agenda since meeting minutes were placed online in 2006. No one knew their address, I guess. Someone has obviously been reading their Sr. Ct. By-Laws and about time. Maybe they even read the town's regs about meetings, agendas, &minutes! Yes, a discussion of the upcoming budget mtg. in two weeks just might be in order. It's never been done in 4 yrs. Yes, an election of officers since it's been forgotten for 3 yrs.- they hold office for one year. Yes, an annual report which is way past due (like a few years). And let's not forget the budget discussion. It's never been done in 4 yrs. of online meeting postings. No, it absolutely has NOTHING to do with me. I'm too political.

Picky, picky, picky. Yeah. That's OUR $ they're spending over there. I'd like to at least dream of some oversight. I've sure been overseeing my spending lately. How about you?

There is also a center group membership meeting at 1 tomorrow. So go! LOL. Stay tuned for more info on Sr. Center by-laws. Yup, they've got 'em. They all just forgot to like, y'know, READ them.
