General
Discussion:
Agency
Information\Updates
·
Ken
Sharkey stated that ATS has a surplus of vehicles that they are willing to
donate to agencies that might need them but he would prefer to keep them in St.
Clair Co. Most of them have
approximately 175,000 miles on them but have been well maintained. Caritas staff & JTC Academy would like to
be considered for a vehicle. Spero also
asked to be considered even though they are in Jefferson Co.
·
Patty
Evansco was pleased to announce that her agency is now transporting people from
the south\central area of St. Clair Co. into Shiloh for medical appointments
and other medical care 3 times per week.
New
Business\Open Discussion
·
Follow
up-Mike Healy visit:
o Mark Bollmann
& Charlene Hogan stated that their agencies have received F-1 Disposition
letters from Jeff Waxman since the meeting.
This will release 5310 vehicle liens and the agency can do as they wish
with the vehicles.
o Mark Bollmann
informed everyone that if they are picking up new vehicles in Kankakee tomorrow
the weather may be worse up north & agencies should contact Mike Healy if
they can not make the trip.
·
Ideas
for guest speakers or meeting topics:
o Danuta Del Rio had
questions, as a new 5310 recipient, about driver trainings and if that would be
a topic for meetings. Terri Finn
suggested she contact RTAC about trainings as they are usually all day
events. Also that agencies within the
regions often have driver trainings that they will invite other agencies to
attend and Terri usually sends this information out to committee members as it
comes available.
o Kari Docherty
stated that she or other Spero staff would volunteer to speak at the next
Region 11 meeting.
