2.0 Pet Policy
Angie Darlison excused herself based on a conflict of interest since one of
the issues was in relation to her dog Albert.
The question of pets being allowed in the Beech Centre had been raised
by some members. At the direction on of the board the executive
committee felt in incumbent to discuss this and make
recommendations to be presented to the full board of directors at the
November meeting.
During discussion it was agreed that while most seniors are happy to see
pets in the Centre, it was pointed out that others were allergic to dogs
etc.
Therefore it was agreed to send the attached Draft Policy to the Board for
Approval.
Angie Darlison returned to the meeting.
