It was agreed by those present that the Executive Director be instructed to carry out suggestions and recommendations made by the Executive Committee or the board and that the actions be reported back to the meetings as "old business."
    Mr. Hoggard was asked about the Operation Independence location of the new Center as covered in the report of January II, 1971, and he reported that the location at 1516 Glider St. was found to have building violations which made it impossible to complete the contract for its lease.

    - 2 -
    February 16, I 97i
    It was moved and seconded that the minutes of the Special Executive Committee Meeting of January 27, 1971, be approved- Motion passed.
    Mr. Hoggard also reported that:
    Letters had been written to each Agency Board establishing what is requested in the monthly reports, in accordance with the instructions on Page 2 of the minutes of January II, 1971.
    Mr. Campbell of the Nevada Resort Association had told him that they were preparing for an Executive Committee meeting and the Association would be in touch with the EOB. There has been nothing in writing since the letter to them of January 8, 1971.
    The new job descriptions mentioned on Page 4 of the minutes of January II, 1971, cover existing positions, two of them to be transferred from Operation Independence to the CAP level, Family Service Coordinator and Education Specialist, in accordance with the Memo of Agreement.
    On the Welfare component, this would have to be a Chairman appointment for a Welfare Committee.
    Alternative Plans for Administration of the Migrant Community Center.
    At the special meeting on January 27, 1971, it was decided that the contract for the Migrant Project be returned to the Executive Director with the directive that alternatives be suggested.
    Mr. Hoggard indicated three alternative plans for consideration:
    I.
    The EOB to assume the role of operating official for the project beginning March I, 1971, and to continue in that role until a suitable delegate agency can be found.
    2.
    The board of the NALA has expressed interest in assuming the operation and they have been asked to out it in a letter of intent. An alternative could be delegation to this agency.
    3.
    For the EOB staff tp work with the Migrant Council and strengthen it so they can ultimately run the project.
    In view of the fact that the School District does not wish to accept a contract, the board must operate this prPgram until they can find a proper agency. A work program and budget has been approved making it i ncurhbent upon the grantee to insure the objectives will be carried out The people who are presently on the staff can be transferred from the school district payroll to the EOB payroll and become employees of the EOB. A person to fill the position of Director has been recommended by the Council and his resume must now be submitted to Washington.
    The motion was made and seconded that the EOB operate the Moapa Migrant Program until such time as a proper agency can be found to operate it. Motion passed.

    It was moved and seconded that the Chairman appoint a committee of five people from the project area to develop integration recommendations to be submitted directly to the school district by Monday, February 22, 1971, and that the committee work with the staff. Motion passed.
    Executive Di rector's Report
    Mr. Hoggard reported that:
    The Neighborhood Council organizers had had the benefit of two training sessions and a report on this operation would be given at the February board meeting. He noted that he had not, to date, received the weekly reports required of the Project Coordinator.
    Although twenty-five applications were received for the position of Research Specialist, none of those who were screened and interviewed were recommended by the committee as possessing the required skills needed for the position.
    As a result, Mr. Hoggard advised it is his recommendation that the position of Research Specialist remain vacant for another thirty to sixty days and then be re-advertised.
    A letter was received on February 9, 1971, from the Westside Council regarding Mrs. Pearson who had been terminated because the project's contract had terminated as of December 31, 1970. After discussion, it was decided that this matter should be turned over to the Personnel Committee.

    Kit Carson Counci I
    Mr. William Hayes " " Henderson Council
    Four Mi Ie Counci I
    Mrs. Rosie Smith " " Highland Council
    Madison Counci I
    This action met the specifications in Step 2 od the January 27, 1971, memorandum. There are no Senior or Assistant Organizers, as funds are not available for these positions. The Organizers are directly responsible to Mr. Edwards, Project Director.
    Mr.Coleman, Chairman of the newly formed Joint Neighborhood Council Advisory Committee, reported they had brought information on all the councils except Madison and Westside. The roster and documentation of the Kitt Carson meeting, held March 4, 1971, had been turned in to the committee. This meeting was conducted by the elected Chairman, Virginia Ghiffin and Maude Hinton and Dorothy King were elected to the Advisory Committee.
    Mrs. Marvie Smith, Organizer of Wes+side, reported that Mrs. McCants, Chairman, was in the hospital when the meeting was called. The roster sheets,etc., were turned in to the Secretary. Mrs. McCanta and A -ien Sanders were elected as representatives to the Ad- v i sory Comm i ttee.

    The Organizer reported that the secretary had the roster sheets and minutes of the Mad i son meeti ng.
    The Jdint Council Committee was asked to have proper documentation on these three councils turned in before the Economic Opportunity Board meeting on March 31, 1971.
    Regarding the Matt Kelly congest, t was reported the chairman checked the roster as turned In and found only three persons to be residents of the area. There was a question as to the date of the meeting, as the papers submitted showed February 9, 1971, whereas the organizer indicated that the meeting was held on February 10, 1971. The chairman had been notified of that meeting and officers were elected at that time.
    As to the election of'the Joint Neighborhood Council Advisory Committee, this was done at a meeting on March II, 1971, under the direction of Mr. Bill Council of the American Technical Assistance Corporation, who had been at some of the council meetings as well.
    The representatives were broken into groups to caucus and elections were held for the officers of the committee and the representatives to the Economic Opportunity Board. Mrs. King, Mr. Sanders and Mrs. Of'fili were re-elected to the EOB.
    Special Executive Committee Meeting (Coht'd.)
    - 3 -
    March 17, 1971
    The Chairman of the Advisory Committee reported they had accepted the old bylaws with the Understanding necessary changes had to be made. They were now under study.
    Since the election of March I I, the Executives of the Committee had met on March 13, with'Mr. Edwards and Mr. Council. The next full Advisory Committee meeting is set for March 31, 1971.
    In the discussion concerning the bylaws for the group, the following points were brought out:
    I.
    That eight councils shall be viable and operating by June, 1971.
    2.
    That each council shall have a membership of 55 by December 31, 1971, with membership projection points spelled out for various period of the year.
    3.
    That efforts should continue to form coalitions where difference of opinion appear in the council. In these cases, committee members should attend the meetings in an effort to coordinate viewpoints.
    The point was Stressed That The contract is made between the Economic Opportunity Board and the Joint Neighborhood Council Advisory Committee and it puts the burden on the committee to operate the groups. These councils carry the program.
    The Chairman of the Committee replied that, while they are a committee and need organization, those oh the committee are dedicated to make the organization a success. They were complimented on the work they had done thus far and it was pointed out that the Economic Opportunity Board must assist and the delegate agency hold itself accountable.
    Mr. Tyree is charged with monitoring, evaluating and reporting to the committee and to the Economic Opportunity Board. The staffs must work together.
    This year's work program has been approved by the regional office and would be presented td the Joint Neighborhood Council Advisory Committee for signature if compliances are met.
    Mr. Perkins moved that the time for the Joint Neighborhood Council Advisory Committee to comply with the memorangum from the Executive Director to the Economic Opportunity Board, dated January 27, 1971, be extended and, if full compliance is made by the next board meeting on March 31, 1971, the Executive Committee recommend signing the contract.

    EXCERPTS FROM - TASK FORCE MEETING January 2, I 973
    Chairman Perkins called the meeting to discuss the Task Force recommendations, to order at 7:53 p.m., in the meeting room at 900 West Owens Ave., with the following present:
    Task Force Members Rev. Herbert Osman Ed Cocks
    Sister Carole Hurray
    Timothy Sea Is Mattie Wormwood
    Organization Representatives Darlene Fortney Clemencia Jabbs Cranford Crawford James Stewart Grover Lewis
    Staff Members
    J. Dav i d Hoggard James W. Tyree Maryon Hebert
    The following excerpts indicate the various sections of the report which organization representatives present indicated their groups might assume:
    APTD -(Assistance to Partially & Totally Disabled). Sister Hurray felt that the Franciscan Center would pursue this in terms of lobbying, but other organizations should get behind it, as well. Mr. Stewart also indicated the Ministerial Association interest.
    Emergency Assistance. Mr. Stewart felt the Ministerial Association could assume this problem because most of the ministers can identify this with the congregation. It has already been under some discussed. Mr. Stewart also suggested the matter be taken to Rotary and Kiwanis and some of the other organizations. He felt that this and the APTD were closely related.
    Medical Assistance. Mr. Perkins advised that Dr. McMillan has been asked to rejuvenate the Health Committee and this committee will be asked to watch on this. Also Mrs. Barba Jones of Clark County Social Services will be contacted to learn what her office is planning on the subject.
    1ransportation. Mr. Tyree advised the EOB has initiated a contract to provide one vehicle for transportation from Henderson to the EOB and efforts are being made to obtain another vehicle from DOL for transportation of NYC enrollees to and from training. Mr. Perkins noted this will be one of the items the EOB will pursue with the County Commissions for transportation between Las Vegas and the outlying areas.
    Centralization, Coordination & Publication of Services. In the discussion it was suggested weekly TV programs as public services, and 30 and 60 second spot announcements on radio, especially through the proposed EOB Station, should be considered. Mr. Perkins said the EOB would pick up on this item.
    Hous I ng. Mrs. Fortney of the Citizens for Community Action said they are involved in this matter as far as Henderson is concerned. Rev. Osman understands J. Rourk and the Legal Services were institution action on some properties.
    Mr. Perkins felt a night should be planned with the Tenants Pulling Together and the Poor People Pulling Together on this subject.
    Mr. Perkins agreed with the others present that, regardless of how the Housing Authority Boards are chosen, the commissioners or the cities should appoint someone who lives in the units as a board member.
    Educat ion. Mr. Lewis, School District Mini-Board, indicated they are presently working on the Breakfast Program (D-3-g on Page 8 of the report). They would also be willing to work with the EOB in pursuit of the other items, but Mr. Lewis said their organization is not large enough to assume more than one item at a time on their own.
    Excerpts from Task Force Meeting, cont’d. - 2 -
    January 2, 1973
    Mr. Perkins indicated that those areas in Education which cannot be pursued by agencies or groups, the EQB wiI I attempt to do as a board.
    On the reimbursement of schools for some operations, particularly summer school tuitions for those who cannot afford the expense, Mr. Seals, a member of the District Attorney’s Youth Advisory Committee, indicated their Education Committee was pursuing this matter in some form, but he was not sure exactly what their action may be in this regard.
    Sister Hurray felt the League of Women Voters and the AAUW are very interested in Education and would want to work with the EOB on these things.
    EmpIoyment. Mr. Perkins understood that there was some impetus for some type of Affirma- time-Action Program at the county and state levels. The EOB will reinforce those types of concerns within the public entities. This will involve presentations before the county and.state people based upon some pf the Task Force findings.
    The "Spirit of Service" Mr. Perkins felt this should also be included with the Employment as it covers the basic attitude of the people employed.
    Chi Id Care. Mrs. Fortney said the Citizens for Community Action is going to work on this matter, but asked what group is relly going to press for it. She also suggested that the EOB put forth a 4C’s committee.
