We do not have a presentation for item two.

Item two, yes, item two is the uh FO trust fund financial report.

So we don't have a presentation.

Okay.

And Chair, I have no speaker slips on this item as well.

Thank you.

Seems like we are moving fast.

If any um members of the commission have any um questions or comments on it, now is the time for that.

However, I see uh no speakers in the uh in the queue.

So with that, I believe we can uh move to item three.

Thank you.

Item three is the FOMALE trust cycle six funding review and recommendation May 2026.

Is there any presentation on that?

We do.

Good morning, Javier Rivas Recreation General Supervisor, overseeing um older adult services.

I'll be over here today.

Um we are getting ready to close out cycle six.

So um as usual, I'll go through some updates here for you, and then we do have some action items in preparation for for cycle six closeout.

So uh starting at the top with the triple R sliding scale scholarship, uh quick update 30 38 over $38,000 uh in scholarships have been awarded in fiscal year 26, and the this data comes through March 2026.

Um on the left there, you'll see the original approved allocation for the project and the total spent.

First action item uh triple R marketing outreach as previously uh discussed.

This project has been completed.

So we're looking to move the unspent uh two thousand seven hundred and fifty-seven sixty-two back to the unallocated pot.

Heart fund pass, you'll see on the left uh the original allocation for the project was ninety thousand dollars, and we're getting pretty close there at eighty-nine seven three two.

So uh for this one, we are looking to add ten thousand dollars to the project to finish out cycle six meals on wheels distribution.

Um a total of fourteen thousand eight hundred and thirteen meals have been served in fiscal year twenty-six again.

That this puts us on track to to serve more meals than we did the last fiscal year.

Next item is a meals on wheels expansion.

We're still um on pause with this one.

We do intend to carry this over to the next cycle uh and reevaluate uh capacity on on our department side and the and in the vendor side as well.

Uh most important meal of the day is is still uh ongoing.

Um we're looking to complete that project within budget as well.

Bridging the the grade digital divide, another completed project.

That allocation was fully utilized.

And then the Hart Senior Center Parking Permit Pilot Program.

So since the since this project or I'm sorry, since this document was published, uh we actually have an uh 45 permit holders.

Um we previously had 32 permit holders, um, we now have uh 45 permit holders, and we've implemented a better system to kind of evaluate the need uh and and process those uh essentially applications that we're putting out so that people can um can apply for this uh permit.

So again, from 32 permit holders, we are now at 45 permit holders.

Uh next action item is the neighborhood walk promotion.

Um that so you'll see that uh there was $5,500 originally allocated to this project.

Uh with the cleanup that we're looking to do for cycle six, we uh were we took a look at our uh financials and basically this project was essentially charged to our operating budget, so no heart trust fund uh funds were used.

So what we're looking to do is move the essentially unspent $5,500 back to the unallocated exercise equipment for the senior center.

Um we're looking again that project was completed under budget, so we're looking to move the unspent 54831 back to the unallocated the following two projects were uh completed within um within the budget, and then the last action item, another project the Bell Coolidge Community Center lobby furniture, which was uh completed under budget as well.

We're looking to move the unspent back to the unallocated, and that's it for cycle six.

Thank you.

Are there any members of the puppet who wish to speak on this item?

Thank you, Chair.

I have no speaker slips for this item.

I did have it it canceled me out.

What happened?

Yeah, I had it up there.

And then they'll have you in the queue.

Chair, we do have um uh member of the committee who would like to speak.

Yes, I had a question on uh the triple R sliding scale.

The approved allocation was 210, and we spent 178.

Um are you gonna spend the rest through June 30th, or are you gonna send any money back to the general we are gonna probably get pretty close to the 210?

Um we'll have at the next meeting.

We'll do the final closeouts for the ongoing projects.

Okay.

Um had one other question if I can find it.

I think it had to do with the parking.

I think you've explained that.

So I think that's it.

Thank you.

I want to know that um yeah, 45 permit holders existing.

Um is it a permit?

Is it a day permit, uh, a month permit?

What kind of permit?

It's a monthly permit, but it it's recurring.

So once you apply, you'll have that permit unless you're not able to attend Hart Senior Center programs.

Uh and then what we what we usually do, what we're able to do is just reassign that permit to somebody else.

Okay, thank you.

Are there any commissioner who uh want to speak on the item?

I hear none.

Um, we need to do we don't need to do the motion, right?

Uh this one um does call for a motion.

Uh the recommendation is to uh pass a motion accepting the uh funding recommendations as outlined in the report.

Um is that a motion and a second for the consent can Canada calendar for this item?

Um is that a motion and a second for the consent can Canada calendar for this item all motion to to accept thank you.

I'll second all in favor say aye.

Aye, aye.

Any opposed any up saying the motion passes with opposition from no one abstain from no one and chair for the record uh the motion was made by uh commissioner long and seconded by Vice Chair Martinez.

Thank you.

Now we go to the next item, item number four the trust fund advisory committee cycle funding recommendation.

Is that any staff presentation?

Yes.

So now we'll be talking about cycle seven.

Again, cycle seven uh is going to kick off in uh July 1st.

So we're closing out cycle six, so we'll talk a little bit about cycle seven.

Um what you see on the screen is is the previously approved amounts for the next cycle, and what we've done on the right side here is kind of giving you a glimpse of the project allocation for um for some of those projects that we have.

So again, we are uh we're welcoming any ideas on the projects um or on the categories that have uh projects TBD.

So we're happy to take suggestions today as well.

Um the only action item here that we have for cycle seven is we are looking to shift the Hart Senior Center parking pass pilot program to be a consistent funding source for parking permits for participants.

So um with that we are looking to reallocate $30,000 from category three um over to categor uh I'm sorry, from category five over to category three um to fund the parking um pass program for the entirety of the next cycle.

So that'll be thirty thousand dollars over to category three.

And um again the some of the suggestions or guidelines for the projects that we can do.

There's some bullet points listed below that um kind of help guide how we establish projects.

So again, uh happy to take suggestions for projects that are listed listed as TBD, and that that's it.

Thank you.

Cloud, are there any member of the public who wish to speak on this item?

Thank you, Chair.

I have no speaker slips on this item.

Are there any commissioner who wish to speak on this item chair?

I do have uh members in the queue.

Uh first vice chair martinez.

Thank you.

Um the prior cycle, the total budget was 800.

I'm gonna round 872,000.

We're now to 1.6 million.

Um, and looking at the various categories, um things are all to be determined that who is gonna determine that.

Uh is it gonna be a presentation on that?

Yeah, once we discuss some projects that we can bring forth, we'll bring it to the meeting.

Um again, I'm we're happy to take suggestions today, um, but as we um go through the new cycle, if we're seeing we're identifying a need that we can fill with um with these categories, we'll bring it here.

Okay, um the meals on wheels is that uh I believe the prior cycle was 274,000, and now we're up to or maybe it's 584.

I'm I'm just curious, is that um gonna be increasing over this next cycle or is there's notes that uh sometimes it wasn't fully uh you know functional during the last cycle.

I'm just wondering where all these numbers are coming from.

You know, who's who is budgeted that's a good question for the last cycle.

For the last cycle, I'm not sure the time frame that the meals on wheels was approved for.

Um what we have on the screen here is um to fund for the entirety of the cycle seven, so for the five years.

Um so that will cover the entire five years.

Okay.

And then the um parking, uh, going back to that again.

Uh I know we're moving 30,000 up.

Is are more and more people taking advantage of that?

I can say it went from 32 to 45, so I guess they are.

Yeah, they are.

We're we're making um a more conscious effort to collect some of that feedback and assess the needs of the community members for the parking pass.

Um so yeah, we're seeing we're seeing an increased need.

I think the need will grow as well.

Um another thing we did is we've expanded the allowable areas that people can park um on uh to make it a little bit easier to find parking as well.

Okay.

Is uh is your department the one that came up with this, or were did you have input from people at the heart center or um are you speaking about the parking permit specifically?

No, the whole budget, the 1.6 million.

Uh yeah, it's it's really a team effort, and we take feedback from the community and um really the frontline staff that we have that kind of help guide the decisions.

Um so they'll they'll see things firsthand, they'll see what the community need is, um, and then you know we'll get together and kind of brainstorm some possible projects based from based off of that.

Okay.

Um do you think that our next meeting we can have somebody from the uh heart center come and make a presentation how they came up with these numbers?

Yeah, we absolutely can.

Um we we want to bring some additional people, uh, for example, somebody from community centers, right?

It's um the purpose of the fund is to support citywide programs, um, as you know, as you can see from some of the other projects.

So um yeah, we can absolutely do that.

Okay.

Thank you.

Chair, I have no other members of the committee in the queue currently.

Thank you.

We need to uh kind of do we need to do a motion for this item?

Um not on this item.

This is a um hold on one moment.

That looks like it has working.

Yes, so we will need a motion on that.

My apologies.

Um a motion will need to be made on um what was outlined in um staff's report.

Thank you.

Is that a motion and a second for the for this item?

I moved.

Thank you.

We need a second.

Thank you.

So we have a motion and a second.

All in favor say aye.

Aye.

Okay.

Opposed.

Any upstairs?

None.

The motion passed.

Thank you, Chair.

And for the record, I believe it was uh member Hunter who made the motion.

Is that correct?

And Member Warner who seconded the motion.

Thank you.

I think this is all for the discussion item for today.

And clap what we are doing for the next one.

Uh the next item is Commissioner comments, ideas, and questions.

Um this is just general um general time for uh members to um either um possibly request uh future items or um just kind of anything that's on your mind.

I do have uh one member or two members in the queue to speak.

Uh our first member is uh Commissioner Long Yeah, I just want to make sure uh it seems like the uh day trips, those field trips are really popular.

So as we go to the next uh the cycle seven, that it's you know that's adequately funded.

And so that's a comment.

And our next speaker is Vice Chair Martinez.

This is just a comment.

Um, just want everybody to know I was just appointed to the county adult and aging commission.

It just so happens the director of the heart is also on that commission.

So hopefully we can work together on this.

Thank you.

And Chair, I have no more speakers in the queue for uh for member comments.

Thank you.

I think uh having uh the heart director as a committee member, that's a great idea.

Um I know they have something um the the fund pass.

I want to um see if that fund pass can be expanded their usage.

Seem to be right now, it's just for uh trip activity.

Um but for recreation activity, like going on every month.

Uh seems I uh is not able to use that fund.

So if that fund pass can apply the hundred dollar into recreation activity, that would be awesome, in my opinion.

Yeah.

So um the fund pass does it should apply to everything that's fee based.

So people can utilize that, including the trips and tours, was which you're right, it's wildly popular.

Um, and we do see um a lot of that used for that.

What I'll do the next the next meeting is I'll I'll try to put together a visual of kind of where the heart fund pass funds are going so you can kind of get an idea of of the utilization of it.

But yes, the the fund pass can be used for any fee-based recreation program.

Thanks for clarification.

Thank you.

All right, so uh next item will be public comment.

So we have we don't have uh public in attendance.

That's correct, Chair.

Let's see.

Are we going to move on to the next theme site?

Is the adjournment?

Yep, that's the adjournment.

Okay.

Okay.

So we this conclude today's agenda, and thank you everyone for participating.

Patient at the meeting is adjourned.

Do we need to do that?

Oh, yes.

Thank you, everyone.
