4 <br /> <br /> Mr. Ryan Davidson, Budget and Utilities Analyst, noted that TeenSight’s grant <br />was for child care. <br /> <br /> Mr. Huja said he thinks we should wait until next year. <br /> <br /> Dr. Brown said he does not mind getting more information about the numbers <br />served, etc. He said we should also look into their high administrative cost. He said he is <br />willing to considering funding. <br /> <br /> The majority of Council agreed with Dr. Brown. <br /> <br /> Mr. Norris said he thinks the idea of a Council representative on the funding <br />application team for ABRT is a good one. <br /> <br /> Dr. Brown said he does not see what that accomplishes as it is a technical <br />application. He said he has no problem with it, but is not sure if it is a good use of <br />Council’s time. He said it seems to be kind of micromanaging. <br /> <br /> Mr. Norris said it will help Council feel more involved. <br /> <br /> Ms. Edwards said she would like to further explore other processes in other <br />localities, and see if there is a way to streamline the process. <br /> <br /> Mr. Norris reviewed what he heard from Council: adopt the same condition as <br />United Way; ask for semi-annual reports from agencies; having a member of the <br />beneficiary population on the review team is less important than experience; explore <br />partnering with the Center for Nonprofit Excellence on capacity building; and consider <br />bringing more of a strategic focus to the issue of priorities. <br /> <br /> Ms. Edwards added or set aside a pot of money for specific priorities. <br /> <br /> The meeting was adjourned. <br /> <br />______________________________ ___________________________ <br />President Clerk <br /> <br /> <br />
