Committee Reports

Executive: Rosanne will spend time away from TSUC over the next several months (or more) for family reasons.

Executive Committee to consider future direction of TSUC.

Rosanne said the insurance woman called here but she hasn't returned her call. Peryy needs to let the insurance woman know we will be switching to another agency.
Response Unit: Send another letter in December to St. Mary's after the holidays or consider other action.
Community Outreach: Norm updated us on the Historical Society situation about the funding for handicap assess. A Justice Department Report will be issued and the ADA, George McDonald, is also looking into the matter. He submitted paperwork to the federal government to enforce the proper use of those funds. The representative from Pike County, Mr. Bermlin, will also follow through with this issue.

Wayne indicated that there is a painting at Forst Hall Antiques in Milford that is discriminatory against African Americans. Its located on the second floor in the back and is pretty large (about 5 feet tall). He spoke with the owner about it but he was not inclined to do anything about it.
