Statewide Advisory Council: Alan indicated they have also had very little participation in in-person meetings and most prefer via Zoom.
Old Business: None
New Business: Charles will find out how HACTAC can set-up a payment method and open a Zoom account. He would like to set-up a method to streamline the payment processes.
At this point in the meeting, the Zoom ended. Some members had logged into tonight’s free Zoom early and therefore took time away from our allotted meeting time.
Karen restarted the meeting and Alan, Charles, Dick & Zenobia rejoined. It was agreed to move forward with a paid Zoom account for the next meeting on March 15th.
The group has received two resignations from members Candace Fisher and Claudette Miller. A motion was made by Zenobia and second by Alan to accept their resignations. Motion passed. Dick has sent letters to West Hartford and East Hartford to remind them to replace their members.
Adjournment: As there was no additional business to come before the Board, a motion was made by Alan and second by Charles to adjourn the meeting. Meeting was adjourned at 7:15 pm.
