Georgetown ommissio/n on lAging Ge rgetown Commission on Aging
Commission on Aging December 17, 2018
Councilmember Fought asked for a small addition from the Council contingency fund to give to an event called
Vibrant Living with a thesis for senior's special needs. He explained that the purpose of the event is to provide
people with the knowledge of where to go for resources they need. Fought said he wants people to know their
available services. He explained that this applies to the whole town, not just Sun City. Named peeps involved.
Have earned a lot of respect. He said it is community leaders putting this together and proposed a contribution
of $5,000. Councilmember Nicholson said she is in support.
Councilmember Jonrowe asked if the City has a history of sponsoring events. Morgan said yes, mostly with
in kind or other contributions, such as Sertoma Club's 4th of July celebration and events by the Chamber of
Commerce, such as the Field of Honor. Morgan said the Commission on Aging has wanted to have this event
for some time now and asked the City to sponsor the event. He said Faith in Action put an excellent group
together and it would be consistent with the city policies to support this. Jonrowe asked about social funding.
Morgan said this is a different. Jonrowe said the City should develop a policy, rather than a Councilmember
bringing their own specific events. Jonrowe said perhaps this could be a pot of money and a process. Morgan
said this can be back to Council with follow up during the budget process. Mayor Ross said he would want
the in kind services included when looking at this.
Amended motion by Fought, second by Gonzalez, to allow for a $5,000 expenditure from the Council
Contingency Fund to fund a diamond level sponsorship of Vibrant Living, A Senior Empowerment Event as
discussed during the workshop meeting.

The GRACE program at the Steve Hicks School of Social Work presents: Care
Care is a powerful and intimate documentary that delves into the world of in -home elder care through the
eyes of both paid caregivers and their elderly clients. Through personal stories, Care reveals the deep
humanity and poignancy of care work, as well as the challenges faced by elders, their families and their care
workers. It also reveals the beginning of a movement to improve how we care-- both for the growing number
of older adults and for those who make their lives livable.
Join us at the Smith Building, across the plaza from the Blanton Museum of Art, on Wednesday,
January 30, 2019:
