The meeting was called to order at 10:04 a.m. with the following in attendance: Tim Ricker, Cheri Reese, Rita Redig and Lucile Taylor, Absent: Kathy Patceg.
Guests present: Mr. Matt Adelman, Douglas Budget and Nancie Fink (for a short time due to her other obligations today).
This meeting was originally scheduled to be held in Glenrock, but was moved because of the Grand Opening of the dining room in Douglas.
Lucile read the minutes of the January 10, 2022 meeting. Cheri moved to accept, Rita seconded, motion carried.
Lucile provided the financial report that Kathy had submitted via email.
Bank activity for January, revenue: $427,465.65 from taxes; $1052.07 in interest; disbursements: $50,000 to WYO STAR; $12,338.74 CCAS for various projects; $90,000 CCAS for their January allocation and $175 to the Douglas Budget for the legal ad on CY 2022 meeting dates.
January 31, 2022 balance: $4,180,297.98. Rita moved to accept the financial report, Cheri seconded, motion carried. Mr. Adelman inquired about the balance in our account. Lucile explained it was due to projects not being completed from previous years and the delays due to COVID and materials.
For clarity on the terms of the current board, Cheri Reese replaces Bill Canady and Rita Redig replaces Ron Yates. This is needed to make certain the ballot reads correctly on terms for the November 2022 election.
Nancie gave a quick update on the various projects. Rather than relist, the report is attached. Mr. Adelman asked Nancie if the projects had been put out to bid, which Nancie stated generally no; however, a few have been. The Grand Opening of the Douglas Senior dining room is today with Prime Rib being served. Nancie will provide this Board with the contact info for the CCAS Board.
Rita and Cheri inquired about investments and felt that more funds needed to be invested. Cheri will also ask CC Bank about options to get higher interest rates. Tim felt this Board needed to visit with Joel Schell again, but Lucile felt otherwise as investments are in our hands now after others have already given their advice. She believes this Board needs to act.
Rita moved to adjourn at 11:00 a.m., Cheri seconded, motion carried.
The next meeting will be held in Douglas.

President Tim Ricker called the meeting to order at 10:00 a.m. Present were Tim Ricker, Kathy Patceg, Cheri Reese, Rita Redig, and Lucile Taylor. The guests present were Nancie Fink, Dana Lythgoe, and Sam Evans.
Kathy moved to approve the minutes of the March 14, 2022 meeting; Cheri seconded, motion carried. Discussion followed on the $300,000 over budget on the kitchen remodel in Douglas. That was the amount from the original budget, but more funds were allocated in FY 22, so the total amount over budget is around $144,000.
Kathy presented the financials. Revenue: $11,738.61 in taxes, $620.67 in interest; expenditures: $3,967,724.50 (includes $3,050,000 allocated to investments; $90,000 CCAS allocation; $157,868.02 CCAS projects), new balance $678,856.48. Lucile moved to approve the financial report and payment of invoices, Rita seconded, motion carried.
Kathy discussed investments. Peak Investments appears to be lagging o acknowledging funds submitted and, in general, follow-up with Kathy. Lucile suggested if it doesn't improve, funds should be removed and placed in other investments.
Nancie stated the Glenrock parking lot project is moving forward. Sam said guardrails, like those on state highways, would be installed. The windows are under the $75,000 budget; however, the company has excessive trip charges. Nancie is working to reduce these charges. The PA systems for both Glenrock and Douglas are moving forward. CCAS may pay the cost for Douglas out of their allocation as the budget was only for Glenrock.
Kathy stated she is meeting with PMCH, our auditors, on Thursday in Casper at 10:00 a.m., if anyone wants to attend.
Nancie stated that the CCAS auditors are currently working on FY 21.
Kathy attended the WY Association of Special Districts conference in Casper. Joel Schell presented and suggested special districts take their full mill due to changes in the law for receiving mineral taxes, She will send out Joel's PowerPoint presentation,
Lucile presented some ideas on possibly offering WRS's 457 Deferred Comp to employees of CCAS (depending on their eligibility as determined by the WY State Retirement System) and asked for help from Nancie and Sam regarding some questions she presented. Rita asked about the possibility of offering employee health insurance, maybe only catastrophic, to the employees.
This Board will meet with the CCAS Board on April 21, 2022, at 11:00 a.m. in Douglas, to review current projects and budgets.
Lucile moved to adjourn at 11:35 a.m.; Cheri seconded, motion carried.

Kathy moved to approve the minutes of the last meeting with the following corrections. The excessive trip charges are for the company doing the PA system and not the windows project. Dayna's name will be spelled correctly in the future; Cheri seconded, motion carried.
Lucile moved to approve the financial report: debits, $90,000 CCAS allocation; $6,534.10 CCAS Glenrock parking lot; credits: $23,433.34 tax collections, $157.69 interest.

Kathy stated that PMCH would help set up the investments in the accounting program. The Board will review the investments in November 2022 (6 months from now) to see the rate of returns and could, at that time, change strategies after reviewing performance.
Tim and Kathy are authorized to get new computers. Tim's is relatively new, but the screen has an issue. He will give it to Kathy to see if there is any warranty left. Kathy's is an older model, so she will replace it. Lucile will take Bill's and Ron's computers to Nancie to wipe clean. Both are older computers.
Nancie reported the State of WY is doing compliance audits at both centers this week. The ads for bids on the Glenrock parking lots have gone out to the newspapers. Architects are looking at the Glenrock kitchen remodel, as well as the flooring. An environmental study for asbestos will be needed. The windows projects turned out well. They are waiting for parts for the PA system.
A new roof at Glenrock is a priority. If funds are available, it could be done in this FY. Future projects for Douglas include HVAC, expansion to include a garage, and restroom areas.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 11:50 a.m.

Cheri seconded, motion carried.
Budgets were discussed. Nancie stated the cost for the parking lot in Glenrock includes the roto-mill, spreading it, as well as the plug-ins and lighting. Nancie will do a narrative addressing the FY 23 $1,140,000 allocation request to reflect what those funds are used for. The Senior District proposed budget was approved, pending the final valuation from the Assessor. On our budget, Lucile explained that having a separate bookkeeper would allow us the separation of duties that the auditors suggested and would allow for that person to submit various required forms on behalf of our district. The election budget covers the approximate cost to the County to have our Board members' names (whose terms are up) on the ballot in November 2022.
Nancie stated the following projects are complete: Douglas, motion sensor door, Glenrock, windows and blinds for each location at a cost of around $9,500 per location. (Note: $7500 has been budgeted in FY 23.) The windows in Douglas should be completed by the end of the month. The signage in Glenrock is ongoing.
Rita moved to adjourn at 11:41 a.m., Cheri seconded, motion carried.

Lucile moved to approve the contract with Skogen, Cometto and Associates for monthly bookkeeping services (and other reports that maybe required) pending review by Kathy after meeting with that firm, Rita seconded, motion carried
​
Dayna discussed various CCAS projects. The gutters for the Glenrock building do not need replacing, so those funds could be considered for other projects. Halogen lights may be needed in the Douglas parking lot, but this item was not budgeted. She stated that CCAS has purchased two animals from FFA members at Deer Creek Days and said someone would be attending the Natrona County Fair as Glenrock has members who will be selling market animals. (Note: July 11, 2022, Nancie added there was a miscommunication as no one with CCAS would be at the Natrona County Market Sale.) Lucile didn't believe this was appropriate or the intent of the PR discussion - the PR was about the Converse County Market Sale. Discussion followed.

Rita moved to adjourn at 11:15 a.m., Kathy seconded, motion carried.

Nancie reported on projects. The Glenrock Parking Lot is complete besides for the walk through; Glenrock Sign will be completed soon, electrical is being installed now; Douglas Phase I (office space, restrooms on east side of the center) will be going out for bid and will start in the Spring; they may bid Phase I and Phase II together to see if there is a cost savings. Glenrock Kitchen Remodel may start around October 1; HVAC will be completed in September. The Glenrock Senior Center is having a BBQ on September 23, 2022 at 11:00 a.m.
Cheri asked about the market sale purchases and would like more discussion. Nancie said the CCAS Board was all in favor of the purchases and she believed it was a cost savings to their food budget.
Rita asked about funding social items and senior trips, to include overnight trips, possibly going to Deadwood and other areas. Nancie stated their insurance does not cover out-of-state trips. She said that seniors will sign up and then won't go on the trips, which is very frustrating. Everyone agreed it is worth looking into if there is an interest and possibly coming up with budgeting numbers for FY 24. Nancie thought there needed to be a small cost to the seniors so they have buy-in. Lucile thought the allocation funding could be used for these events and suggested that Rita work with Nancie to find costs, etc.
Cheri moved to adjourn at 11:10 a.m., Rita seconded, motion carried.

The Glenrock Senior Housing will allow connectivity for the vehicle plugins at that location from their power access at the apartments.

Rita moved to authorize $1,000,000 be taken from our bank account and invested in a CD at Converse County Bank, Cheri seconded. Discussion: the district has a large amount of funds in CCB that are not expected to be used; the interest rates are currently up so the longer we delay, the less interest we will earn; Kathy will talk to CCB about options for CDs on terms and rates. Motion carried unanimously.
Nancie stated the remodel of the Glenrock kitchen will begin shortly. It's expected the dining room could be closed from 3 to 6 weeks. Meals will be delivered to those who currently receive the meals.

Dayna said the sign for the Glenrock Senior Center is working and there will be some tweaks as the staff learns the program and how to change the displays. The sign can be changed remotely as long as the internet is up. The Glenrock kitchen remodel is going well and they are hoping for a December 1, 2022 completion date.
Election of officers was held. After some discussion about responsibilities of the offices, Lucile moved to put forward the following slate: Tim, President; Don, Vice-President; Kathy, Treasurer and Lucile, Secretary. Rita did not want an office. Kathy seconded; motion carried.
​
New Business. Rita and Kathy thought that the new sign in Glenrock would be better if there was directional signage pointing towards the center. Rita felt the sign was confusing as people may go into the Rec Center thinking that is where the senior center is located. Lucile wondered if directional signage could be added under the sign.
Old Business: Kathy and Lucile discussed the conference call with PMCH, our auditors. After the conference call and upon further review and a lengthy discussion, a couple of projects may need to be reconsidered. Tim will discuss them with Nancie.

Kathy addressed some concerns she had with our financials. One concern is that we have too much money in our account, along with investments. Also, how this Board spends the funds on projects - which should be capital assets by definition. Lucile stated that a purchasing policy is needed for this Board which defines capital assets. Don stated he had called a couple of state offices and they would like to discuss the asset concern in person. Don, Tim and possibly Kathy will try to meet with them in January 2023 to get direction. Lucile stated that the electricity for the vehicle outlets at the Glenrock Housing Authority needs to be paid by GHA.
Nancie stated the Glenrock dining room will be open again next Monday. Also, the Glenrock sign is not working and that may be a connectivity issue. The software program is also difficult to use. She will call the software company. Nancie would like to take down the wall at the Douglas Center that separates the staff from the public. This should allow for a better atmosphere.
Don brought up possible ideas for expansion of services that he had heard from various resources. One was that Subaru will donate a vehicle for Meals on Wheels. Nancie stated the centers don't qualify as they are not part of the Meals on Wheels program. Other programs discussed were dementia services, respite care, adult day care, and nursing services. Nancie stated that finding employees has been difficult which makes expanding services hard to do.
Kathy moved to approve the CY 2023 meeting dates as submitted, Don seconded, motion carried.
The meeting adjourned at 10:58 a.m.
