Community center under fire as board weighs staffing changes
Local protests grow at two recent board meetings over the center run by Dr. Lee. About 50 residents attended the latest session, split between critics and supporters. Chairman Harvey Booth said county funding may not rise, hinting at operating without a full time psychiatrist. Mrs. Boardman resigns effective June 1, though asked to stay until September. Dr. Lee and psychologist Ted Mathews plan to exit by that date. The center, born from the Bert Nash Clinic, relies on tax money and fees, and would shift to part time psychiatric services if the full time post is cut. Remaining board members are Jim Owens, Dr. George Learned, and Mrs. Ralph Wolfson.
