DATE: SEPTEMBER 3, 2025
SUBJECT:
Title
REVISIONS TO THE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES OF THE COMMITTEE ON AGING
Body
SUMMARY
The Committee on Aging currently has four vacancies due to the expiration of terms. From June through August 2025, the Recreation and Human Services Department solicited applications, with only three submitted just before the deadline. Due to the low response, it is proposed that the Committee’s membership be reduced from eleven to nine. Of the nine members, two would continue to represent partner organizations, AgingNext and the Claremont Senior Foundation, with each organization selecting its own representative. The remaining seven members would be community representatives. Other committees have also reduced their membership in response to recruitment challenges, and this reduction would help the Committee achieve a quorum at its regularly scheduled meetings. The Community and Human Services Commission’s Ad Hoc Selection Committee will hold interviews in September for the interested applicants who submitted applications, with the goal of filling in the two remaining vacancies.
RECOMMENDATION
Recommended Action
Staff recommends the Community and Human Services Commission approve the revisions to the Committee on Aging Policies and Procedures, reducing the membership from eleven to nine in total.
