Escobedo stated that Senior Center Advisory Committee Minutes April 18, 2013 City of Colleyville Page 2 “Request for Proposals” were sent out to Consultants on April 5; noting that the selection process is underway, and an announcement of the selected Consultant would be made within the week. City staff outlined the scope of the study, which will include: • Community Input • Focus Groups • Programming Needs • Building Efficiency • Name/Signage • Facility Needs • Public Meetings 3c Discussion and consideration of the Senior Center Wish List Chairperson Minea stated that the Committee would like to focus on having the piano at the Senior Center tuned; this item was added to the wish list at the January meeting. Senior Center Recreation Specialist, Cody Ashton reported that the seniors have formed a small theater group and requested the use of the piano. Additionally, Cody stated that he researched the cost of having the piano tuned; noting that prices ranged from $90 to $120 for tuning, with the possibility of additional cost for a pitch raise, which would increase the cost to approximately $200. Quotes were received from vendors in Colleyville, Bedford, North Richland Hills and Fort Worth, with Prestige Piano of Bedford providing the lowest quote. Discussion continued concerning a funding source for the piano tuning; Staff and the Committee agreed that having use of the piano was an enhancement that would benefit the Center as a whole. It was determined that funding was available in the Senior Center donation funds. However, the Committee would like staff to see if the Colleyville vendor would match Prestige Piano’s bid to keep the business in Colleyville. Charna Gray made a motion to spend money from the Senior Center funds to make necessary repairs to the piano. Denise LaPosta seconded the motion. The motion carried with a unanimous vote. Additionally, it was agreed that the piano should be tuned annually and staff will look into the cost for this. 3d Discussion on items for future agendas Debra Minea suggested that each year we hand out a meeting schedule for the year to help the Committee members with their schedules. Minea noted that the remaining meetings for 2013 are scheduled for July 18 and October 17. 4.
