Reese said she was impressed by the wide range of classes, including both
rigorous and fun options, for the fall and she appreciates that the classes are
member driven. Bowen stated that he is on the Program Committee and that the
members of the committee make suggestions for classes as well as talk to
people who are interested in offering classes at the Senior Center.
Clamon stated that she appreciates the opening of the billiards room so that
members can bring in a guest. She brought her grandson in recently and they
had a fun time.
DeLoach is currently working on a grant from Delta Dental to get new water
bottle filling stations throughout the building. Other building updates include
brighter lighting in the elevator as well as the creation of a staff break room.
DeLoach will be bringing in some traveling cultural exhibits from various
museums. These will likely be displayed in the lobby area.
DeLoach would like to improve the way-finding signs throughout the building.
Ideas include color coded signs and well as more prominent welcome signs.
Another option is getting TV’s at the entrances with general and programming
information. DeLoach is also hoping to update the bulletin boards to make them
more attractive. She would also like to utilize yard signs to draw attention to the
building. Commissioners discussed placing banners on the outside the building
or projecting lights and or images onto the outside of the building. Webber asked
if something could be done with the limestone block at the corner of the building.
The blocks were part of the building and were removed to make space for the
skywalk. DeLoach said it could not be painted but a plaque could be placed.
DeLoach will be working with the Communications Department to come up with a
marketing plan by the end of October.
COMMISSION DISCUSSION:
Reese noted that the Commission currently has one seat open and will have two
more at the end of this year. She asked Commissioners to think about people to
potentially approach to let them know about the openings and how to apply.
Clamon left the meeting.
Reese noted that Kathy Mitchell had been the Commission Liaison to the
Steering Council. She asked if any Commissioners would be willing to fill this
role. Kromray reported that this meeting occurs on the 2nd Thursday of the month
at 10:45. The Steering Council is meant to be the communication component that
brings the various committees, including the Commission, together. This role

would entail attending the meeting and reporting on what the Commission
discussed. Weber agreed to be the Commission Liaison.
Webber noted that the trip hazards outside of Ecumenical Towers had been fixed
after the last Commission meeting and that he appreciated the quick action by
the City Manager’s office.
Reese asked if there were any items for the agenda in September for the
Commission to discuss. It was suggested the memorial block be revisited. Reese
asked DeLoach to add any items that she would like the Commissions feedback
on. DeLoach also noted that she is happy to talk with Commissioners regarding
any ideas they have for the Senior Center and to reach out to put those items on
the agenda for the following month.
