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. REPORTS
Cody Ashton, Recreation Specialist gave an overview of the Senior Center activities
and upcoming special events; noting that the Senior Prom was held on February 15

Chairperson, Debra Minea stated that the number of participants for Meals on Wheels

group has started singing at the luncheons and has been well received.
5. CITIZEN COMMENTS/PRESENTATIONS REGARDING ITEMS NOT ON THE
