REGULAR MEETING OF THE ORONO COUNCIL, MARCH 24 , 1980 Page 11 <br /> The following letter was received from Marcy WEST HENNEPIN HUMAN <br /> - Shapiro, West Hennepin Human Services Planning SERVICES PLANNING BOARD* <br /> Board, dated March 7, 1980: <br /> "I am writing regarding several different matters . <br /> _ First, I have enclosed an invoice for your 1980 <br /> contribution. We appreciate your continued support <br /> of West Hennepin Services and there is again no <br /> increase as we have maintained the same level <br /> of contributions by municipalities. <br /> Second, enclosed is a change recommended by our <br /> Board to the West Hennepin Human Services Joint <br /> Powers Agreement. We are asking your city council <br /> to approve this change. <br /> We are participating with the United Way, Hennepin <br /> County, and the City of Minneapolis in a group <br /> that is looking at the overall human service system <br /> and attempting to coordinate efforts. We are <br /> trying to find out who funds which services and <br /> would appreciate your completing the enclosed <br /> questionnaire. I will forward the compiled <br /> information to you when it is completed. We <br /> appreciate your attention to these matters. Please <br /> call me if you have any questions or need more <br /> information. Thank you. " <br /> End of letter <br /> Attachment from WHHSPB - Request for Joint Powers <br /> Change <br /> Board members who are municipal appointees do not <br /> have any requirements for attendance because we do <br /> not have any method for removing them from the <br /> Board. Currently provider members may be removed <br /> for non-attendance at three consecutive monthly <br /> meetings. <br /> In order for us to have a quorum (which is 500 of <br /> the Board plus one) to do business , we need to have <br /> attendance by municipal appointees. <br /> We are therefore asking for your approval of the <br /> following policy: Policy for Removal of WHHS Members - <br /> After second consecutive missed meeting, WHHS will call <br /> the member (unless previous arrangements are made) , and <br /> this call will be followed by a letter stating that <br /> their position on the Board may be in jeopardy if <br /> they miss the next meeting.
