Overview
The Wilsonville Senior Advisory Board is an independent, not-for-profit organization called Wilsonville Community Seniors, Inc. The Board of Directors of this organization consists of members who serve in an advisory capacity to the City of Wilsonville on matters effecting senior programs, services, and facilities. This is not an official city board, in that its members are not appointed by the mayor and City Council, they are elected by the participants in senior programs at the Community Center.
This organization acts as a sounding board for ideas and to provide direction and input to the City Council on policy decisions relevant to seniors. Among some of their other roles and responsibilities, they also assist the City in monitoring and evaluating adult 55+ programs, evaluating the quality of food and nutrition services provided for older adults, promoting the senior activities at the Wilsonville Community Center and within the Wilsonville community, and planning and organizing fundraising events to benefit the adult 55+ community.
At least seven members of the Board of Directors must be aged 55 or older and participate in senior activities at the center. No more than four members, who do not participate in the congregate or other senior activities, may serve on the Board of Directors. All meetings are open to the public.
