Council on aging idea fades amid budget and pollution duties
At the April 9 council meeting Councilman Edward H Holmes said the local council on aging remains in doubt while town budget planning and federal water pollution statutes demand attention. Administrator Augusti Nunes proposed a combined study and coordinating body to identify unmet elderly needs and plan future services. The plan would include welfare and development directors, housing authority chairmen, seniors groups, and state aging officials to coordinate existing efforts and address gaps. Final arrangements for Hope Circle No 70 Daughters of Isabella communion breakfast will be set at 7:30 pm, with a card party and grocery drive to follow. Alice Gomes and Veronica Toth lead the social. A Silver Creek delegation visited, and multiple town groups work on elderly issues, though coordination is lacking. The proposed council would map services, unmet needs, and future demands.
