CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities | 2018-02-14 | 9 | ITEM 2-A COMMISSION ON DISABILITY MEETING MINUTES OF Wednesday, February 14, 2018 6:30 p.m. Jenn Barrett: And this is just for 2018? Victoria Williams: Yes, '18-19. Jenn Barrett: Okay. And you have $700,000 balance but you're only going to have $100,000 remaining afterwards? Does that mean we're going to have an issue with the next? Victoria Williams: The Measure B & BB has been extended to 2045 I believe it is. So every year there will be more Measure B & BB money coming in. So if our trip provision stayed the same at 295,000, well, there are other expenses too. But that should be enough to cover because we won't have any of those signs or there are a lot of things we're doing this first year that we've rebranded. Jenn Barrett: With the capital? Victoria Williams: That we won't need to do again. So we think that should work out okay. Now that's if everything gets approved by the funder. This is what we're asking for. We don't know that they're going to say okay on everything. We're hoping so. Lisa Hall: Taxi vouchers are for seniors and people with disabilities? Victoria Williams: Yes. Lisa Hall: But not to the general public? Victoria Williams: Correct. Lisa Hall: Like the free shuttle? Victoria Williams: That's right. Lisa Hall: Okay, but how do people know about taxi vouchers? Unless they're senior or disabled? Is that the only, if they would know if they heard maybe from the senior center? Victoria Williams: Primarily at the Senior Center. I had two people that came in yesterday. They learned in their yoga class from someone else in the yoga class who had it. We've done several press releases. We have a marketing committee. Commission Brillinger sits on our marketing committee and one of the things on our agenda coming up is also to make a new brochure for the taxi program. We have those new schedules that you have for the shuttle that have the map and everything, but we don't have a real new, concise one. Our taxi company has also changed names, so we need something that's updated. So we'll be in the process of that. Lisa Hall: I think plenty of the seniors know, but, besides Arnold of course, I think the disability community needs to know more, where many disabled people are on a fixed budget. 02/14/18 Page 9 of 24 | CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities/2018-02-14.pdf |
