Lancaster noted that Adams County had a nonprofit handle the senior services in Adams <br /> County an now MAAA will do that. Senior Citizens Industries has covered these services in Hall <br /> County and it is important that local government do so they know the needs and what services <br /> are needed. She is not OK with the change in the by-laws and concerned with the process. <br /> Jay Vavricek stated this was good discussion and he is involved in Senior Citizens. He <br /> requested the interlocal agreement that set the criteria for the board. MAAA voted to make the <br /> by-law change and this change would allow them to censure a person from the board. But the <br /> local county would still have the authority to approve or to not approve the censure. The <br /> communication would come to the chair and in 30 days it would be official. We need to be able <br /> to maintain our authority of who sits on the board. There is a strong willed executive director <br /> and there may be issues that come forward to be addressed. <br /> Lancaster made a motion and Quandt seconded to take exception to the by-law changes to <br /> MW. <br /> Richardson expressed concern that we cannot tell another agency how to make their by-laws. <br /> Lanfear suggested that they need to have County Attorney Sarah Carstensen review the <br /> process before we take a vote and come back in 2 weeks. Discussion was held and Lancaster <br /> withdrew her motion and Quandt withdrew his second. And this will be addressed again in 2 <br /> weeks. <br /> 22. DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION CONCERNING ALTERNATE/SUBSTITUTION <br /> FOR COMMITTEE MEMBERS OF MAAA— Lanfear noted that there was discussion to appoint <br /> an alternate and there was a motion made to appoint Mr. Quandt but that motion failed and no <br /> other action was taken. <br /> Lanfear made a motion and Bredthauer seconded to notify the board chair and the Chair will <br /> appoint a representative for that meeting. <br /> Arnold expressed concern that it may be dangerous to have a temporary appointment. This <br /> was created as an interlocal agreement. He suggested to find a member of the public to serve if <br /> it was another board member neither one might be able to attend. Mr. Schuppan noted that Bill <br /> Schuppan was on the board for years. <br /> Lancaster noted that there are only 2 more meetings left and whoever is chair can make the <br /> appointments. <br /> The vote on the motion was taken Arnold, Bredthauer, Lancaster, Lanfear, Quandt, Richardson <br /> and Schuppan all voted yes and none voted no. Motion carried. <br /> 11.
