ITEM 4: PERSONS SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD - None ITEM 5: OLD BUSINESS Discussion -- SCSEP Program (Title Craig reported she would not be submitting a grant for Title V funds, as the employees who were under the program will be included in the Senior Center budget. Craig added, the Title V grant money is used for training and although the funds are still available she chooses to keep the current employees rather than train someone new. Craig reported she is going to begin electronically billing Medicaid on a weekly basis. Craig added, she met with a representative from Medicaid regarding the current billing rate and it will be renegotiated. An increase in the rate would be most helpful if the State cuts are initiated. If the increase is provided, then the Senior Center budget will be revised. Craig noted, the additional funds would keep the current food program in place plus would possibly provide another part-time employee or additional kitchen equipment. Craig reported there is an Older Worker Specialist on the Peninsula that will be marketing other businesses in the area for older person employment. ITEM 6: NEW BUSINESS Discussion-- Budget Craig reported there would be a work session on Monday, April 7th to begin discussion on the City's budget. Craig continued, the Senior Center budget would look much better if the increase from Medicaid is obtained. Craig stated, if the Borough comes through with additional funds, then the activities coordinator position could be kept at 30 hours per week. Discussion took place on attending budget work sessions for both the Borough and the City. Craig stated, when she meets with United Way she would like a Council on Aging member with her. Craig stated, the application is in for the Exxon/Mobile grant that provides a summer employee. This year the grant requires a high school or college student.
