And I I wanna I know there are some folks here this evening that want to share during uh communications, or we often call it public comment.

Um so this is the the period in the agenda uh when we'll allow you to do that.

However, we have first one planned communication, and that is from our senior services director, Barbara Regan.

Uh communication regarding the non-metro area agency on aging assessment at Hillcrest Senior Life Center.

Ms.

Reagan, good evening.

Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, and Commissioners.

Hello and City Management.

Thank you.

Um I first want to say thank you for the opportunity for me to tell you about the Hillcrest Senior Life Center.

Um we are located at 1704 East 7th Street, uh just right next to the Aquatic Center.

Um you can reach us at 575-769-7908.

Um the center is open Monday through Friday from 8 to 5.

Uh to participate in any activity at the senior center, you only have to be 50 years old.

All of our activities are free.

Um, and so we're able to do this through um through a budget, the operation budget through the city of Clovis.

Uh we offer a wide right uh range of activities from bingo crafts, exercise, movie days, um, and so much more.

So you can find our calendar online.

Um we have three pool tables and one snooker table.

We also have information tables that are scheduled uh for seniors to come in and learn about health care, hospice, Medicare, and other related senior senior resources.

Um to give you a little bit more of an understanding of how our senior mills operation works.

Um funding is received through the New Mexico Aging and Long Term Services Department through a yearly budget.

Um the non-metro area agency on aging administers the funding to be sure that per that providers are spending state and federal funding wisely.

Um during the fiscal year 25-26, we received 404,394 through state and federal funding.

Um Commission approved a local commitment from the City of Clovis for 12,000.
