APPROVAL OF MINUTES The minutes of the previous meeting were reviewed and approved. NEEDS ASSESSMENT Mr. Dodier gathered ideas from each of the committee members on what a needs assessment for Deschutes County should include. He intents to take the information gathered at this discussion and prepare a draft plan for the committee's review. There was also some general discussion on financing the needs assessment. It was suggested that funds be solicited from all the area transportation providers; rather than just looking to COCOA/ COCAAN and Special Transportation Fund dollars. Phyllis Romig presented the results of a survey she had organized in the Sisters area relating to seniors' transportation needs. The survey indicated that there were 307 seniors in the area; 85% have their own transportation; there are 34 handicapped people; 67 seniors that use tranportation services; and 12 individuals that need other care. Services currently available in Sisters include the senior bus service (COCOA van), the Fire Department and volunteers. There was considerable discussion on future funding sources of transportation programs. Phyllis Romig stated that she would look into potential federal funds she had heard about. It was agreed that two subcommittees would meet between now and the next meeting to discuss the drafts that Mr. Dodier will return to the committee based upon information gathered at this meeting. A subcommittee consisting of Phyllis Romig, George Baldini, Eileen Donaldson and perhaps John Halstead would meet to discuss the proposed application format. A subcommittee consisting of Kathy Taylor -Coon, Cheryl Spahn, and Bill Hill would meet to discuss the draft needs assessment work plan. Both committees will report their findings at the next meeting, to be held June 27 at 10:00 AM. Being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 11:49 AM.
