1. December CTAC Meeting Minutes
   No edits requested.

   2. Old Business

   Vote to contribute funds to Hannah Grey center.

   George Alexander had made Motion in a previous meeting to present the Hannah Gray Senior Center
   with a grant of $2,000, but now wishes to revoke his Motion, as no West Haven senior center
   has yet been considered for a grant.
   Peaches specifies that CTAC has already given a $1,000 grant to Hannah Gray Senior Center in
   New Haven, and $1,000 to the Partnetship Adult Day Care Center in Hamden.

   George now makes a new Motion to make a $1,000 grant to a Senior Center in West Haven, to be
   determined..

Peaches Quinn says: “We will rise the topic of giving to institutions in 2020. George’s motion
is therefore revisited and amended, to a $2,000 total gift to be divided between New Haven and
Hamden.”   George consents.

Johnes Ruta seconds George’s amended Motion.   The vote is unanimous.
