Melissa (Melissa Wyse, HCAC Development Coordinator)

To: CA Board of Directors From: Phil Nelson and Celeste Olinger Subject: Content on the New Web Page Date: March 21, 2014

Background:

ƒ Recently, the Community Engagement/Communications Service Bureau completed and posted a new, vibrant web page for the Columbia Association. ƒ The work was done in a very short period in order to meet the Board’s wishes that the web page be operational by the end of the 2013 calendar year. ƒ Due to available financial resources The Community Engagement/Communications Service Bureau had to build most of the site’s infrastructure and transferred much of the data from the old web page to the new site. ƒ By doing the work internally rather than having the web page developer transfer the data, the Community Engagement/Communications Service Bureau saved CA over $56,000 in fees. ƒ The new page was built on what the community told CA that they would like to see on the page. Focus groups, questions on Inspire Columbia, and mini- surveys were used to gather community feedback and opinions as to what they would like to see on the site. ƒ Management understands that the webpage is a continuing work in progress, and the page will never be static. Community Engagement will continue to work with residents, members of CA and users of CA venues and programs to keep the site relevant and accessible. ƒ At a recent meeting, the Board discussed several items related to the budget. At the meeting, discussions focused on membership information being placed on the web page. At that time, the President stated that the Board could control some of the web’s content. ƒ As a matter of logistics, the comment was made in reference to the Board’s Policy making responsibilities. The primary focus of the web site should be to keep the community informed of CA’s venues, programs and work in the community. Trying to place something on the webpage from every individual would make the webpage impossible to navigate and would become too cumbersome to use. ƒ Membership pricing, purchasing memberships on line and on line assessment fee payments have been requested to be placed on the page, but were not put on the new site due to the fact that Board policies were not established and put in place.

Legal Considerations

ƒ Web content has to conform to current policies and State and Federal statutes. While not a legal concern in most cases, content should be based on community standards to the extent possible.

Budget Implications/Considerations:

ƒ Management has made every effort to keep the costs of web content and maintenance affordable.

Policy Correlation: (How does the item meet the Boards Goals and Objectives?)

ƒ If the Board wants certain things on the webpage, the Board should look at how current policies can be used, or how new policies should be developed in order to make content conform to the Board’s Strategic Plans. Policies should also reflect the Board’s adopted goals for the President, and any other policy that is determined to be in the best interests of Columbia residents, members and users of CA’s venues and programs. The Boards recently adopted Strategic Goals are included at the end of the memo. ƒ Adding a great amount of content that the community did not recognize or feel was essential and complicates easy navigation seems to go against the Board’s mandate that the new webpage have easy to find information. ƒ Any materials that are asked to be placed on the webpage CA by Board Members should be based on the majority vote of the Board of Directors. Materials that individual’s might want included on the webpage could turn the site into more of a political expectations document rather than an informational venue.

External Relations Committee Year End Report:

ƒ Public Process for Project Planning and Implementation: The committee discussed the need to communicate with the public about reasons for changes or other actions CA may take, and discussed such ideas as resident academies that would give Columbians more insight into what CA does. Two Resident academies have been conducted to date. ƒ The ERC supported management efforts to expand communications and information sharing programs and support efforts to expand current programs based on changes anticipated for future Columbia. ƒ The Committee decided to combine and expand #3 and #4 of the President’s suggested objectives for the External Relations Committee so that it now reads as follows: “Work with Staff to develop a plan to improve relationships with all Stakeholders.” ƒ The ERC undertook discussions regarding Communication and Transparency. ƒ The External Relations Committee hosted a reception for Howard County Police and Fire Management Staff in October. ƒ Based on action by the ERC the Board sent a letter of support to Howard County supporting the county’s upcoming feasibility study about options for replacing the pedestrian bridge over Route 29. ƒ The ERC recommended to the Board that the Board adopt staff recommendations for the Community Input Approach to the budget process. ƒ The ERC undertook the logistics of conducting a Town Hall Meeting. The ERC made recommendations that the Meeting could be in the format of a State of CA and is planning on conducting the meeting in Fall of 2014. ƒ The ERC worked with CA Management to develop a new Webpage for CA. The Communications and Community Engagement Service Bureau was given from approximately October of 2013 until December 31st to complete design and implementation of the site, and met the goal. ƒ The ERC committee members worked as a BOC Sub-Committee on Advisory Committees and how to better involve Sub-Committees in the overall Board planning process. New logistics were developed. ƒ Improving Relationship/Communication with the Villages.

The ERC approved recommendations for enhancing the relationship between CA and the villages. Six overlapping relationships within the “CA-Village relationship” were presented:

1. CA Board member and the Village Board 2. CA Board and the Village Board 3. CA Board member and the Village Manager 4. CA Board and the Village Manager 5. CA Staff and the Village Manager 6. CA Staff and the Village Board

CA Management and the Village Manager’s recommendations included:

1. Change the title of this “issue” to “Support of CA/Village Collaboration”. 2. Ask the work group to review and update the document “A Collaborative Endeavor.” (The idea of “developing ways to ensure that new CA staff, village board members, village managers and staff understand their roles” was added to the recommendation.) 3. Ask the work group to look at the six relationships within the Village-CA relationship.

Next year the ERC will also take on two additional Board approved tasks: 1. Coordinate with the 50th Columbia Birthday 501(c)(3) entity concerning their plans, and specifically whether CA should replace the Bell Tower with CA funding versus finding funding elsewhere and/or expending CA's funds elsewhere. 2. Take on responsibility for oversight and facilitation of the entire Advisory Committee program as well as insuring that all Advisory Committees are visited at least once annually by a Board member.

RE: Policy Regarding Performance Incentive Payments and Severance Payments that Exceed Guidelines

CA Management believes that the President/CEO should be empowered to use his/her discretion to exceed guidelines for performance incentive payments and severance payments as he/she determines necessary to reward outstanding performance or to expedite severance agreements. If however, the Board believes it is necessary to impose constraints in these areas on the President/CEO, CA Management recommends the following policy:

Policy Regarding Performance Incentive Payments & Severance Payments that Exceed Guidelines

The President/CEO will notify the Board in advance if he/she intends to give a CA team member a performance incentive payment or severance payment that exceeds guidelines by more than 25% or more than $10,000. The President/CEO will also provide his/her justification for making such an exception.

If the President/CEO intends to authorize a performance incentive payment that exceeds guidelines by more than 25% or more than $10,000, the President/CEO will allow the board at least two weeks to express their concerns, if any. If a majority of the board expresses concerns, the issue will be discussed in closed session, following the next scheduled Board Meeting.

Given the inherent timing issues frequently applicable to severance agreements, if the President/CEO intends to offer a severance payment that exceeds guidelines by more than 25% or more than $10,000, the President will set a deadline for Board members to express concerns, if any. If a majority of the board expresses concerns, the President/CEO will call a special closed Board meeting to discuss the issue.

SUBJECT: State Highway Administration (SHA) Easements and Land Acquisition Request SHA Contract #H0317B31 – Gales Lane Project

DATE: April 17, 2014

Per recent conversations with the SHA representative regarding the SHA projects near Gales Lane, current updates are as follows:

Sound Wall Barrier:

The SHA maintains that the existing certified Monarch Way Station is a sufficient reason to request placement of the sound wall barrier on CA property. Citing liability concerns, SHA would prefer to purchase, in fee simple, the necessary 2,290 square feet for $4,000.00, as opposed to CA granting a perpetual easement for this area.

Restricted Access to Lot 1:

The SHA Engineering Division has reportedly provided a positive initial response to the option of CA having access to Lot 1 through a gate at the end of Gales Lane (near Pushcart Way). If this idea continues to gain traction at SHA, CA and SHA would need to enter into an M.O.U to formalize the permitted uses of this access point into/from Lot 1.

15. HOLDOVER. LESSEE has no right to retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration of that removal period set forth in Paragraph 14 herein, unless the Parties are negotiating a new lease or lease extension in good faith. In the event that the Parties are not in the process of negotiating a new lease or lease extension in good faith, and LESSEE holds over in violation of Paragraph 14 and this Paragraph 15, then the rent then in effect payable from and after the time of the expiration or earlier removal period set forth in Paragraph 14 shall be equal to the rent applicable during the month immediately preceding such expiration or earlier termination.

16. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. If LESSOR elects, during the Term (i) to sell or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Property, whether separately or as part of a larger parcel of which the Property is a part, or (ii) to grant to a third party by easement or other legal instrument an interest in and to that portion of the Property occupied by LESSEE, or a larger portion thereof, for the purpose of operating and maintaining communications facilities or the management thereof, with or without an assignment of this Agreement to such third party, LESSEE shall have the right of first refusal to meet any bona fide offer of sale or transfer on the same terms and conditions of such offer. If LESSEE fails to meet such bona fide offer within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from LESSOR, LESSOR may sell or grant the easement or interest in the Property or portion thereof to such third person in accordance with the terms and conditions of such third party offer.

17. RIGHTS UPON SALE. Should LESSOR, at any time during the Term decide (i) to sell or transfer all or any part of the Property to a purchaser other than LESSEE, or (ii) to grant to a third party by easement or other legal instrument an interest in and to that portion of the Property occupied by LESSEE, or a larger portion thereof, for the purpose of operating and maintaining communications facilities or the management thereof, such sale or grant of an easement or interest therein shall be under and subject to this Agreement and any such purchaser or transferee shall recognize LESSEE's rights hereunder under the terms of this Agreement. To the extent that LESSOR grants to a third party by easement or other legal instrument an interest in and to that portion of the Property occupied by LESSEE for the purpose of operating and maintaining communications facilities or the management thereof and in conjunction therewith, assigns this Agreement to said third party, LESSOR shall not be released from its obligations to LESSEE under this Agreement, and LESSEE shall have the right to look to LESSOR and the third party for the full performance of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the forgoing, in the event LESSOR sells or transfers all of its interest in the Property, then, from and after the effective date of such sale or transfer (a) LESSOR shall be released from its obligations under this Agreement that arise after such sale or transfer date, and (b) LESSEE shall look to such purchaser or transferee for the full performance of this Agreement for obligations that arise after such sale or transfer date.

20. INTEGRATION. It is agreed and understood that this Agreement contains all agreements, promises and understandings between LESSOR and LESSEE and that no verbal or oral agreements, promises or understandings shall be binding upon either LESSOR or LESSEE in any dispute, controversy or proceeding at law, and any addition, variation or modification to this Agreement shall be void and ineffective unless made in writing signed by the Parties or in a written acknowledgment in the case provided in Paragraph 3. In the event any provision of the Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, such finding shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement. The failure of either Party to insist upon strict performance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or to exercise any of its rights under the Agreement shall not waive such rights and such Party shall have the right to enforce such rights at any time and take such action as may be lawful and authorized under this Agreement, in law or in equity.

21. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement and the performance thereof shall be governed, interpreted, construed and regulated by the Laws of the State in which the Property is located.

As to other parties, this Agreement may not be sold, assigned or transferred without the written consent of the LESSOR, which such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

24. SUCCESSORS. This Agreement shall extend to and bind the heirs, personal representative, successors and assigns of the Parties hereto.

25. SUBORDINATION AND NON-DISTURBANCE. LESSOR shall obtain not later than fifteen (15) days following the execution of this Agreement, a Non-Disturbance Agreement, as defined below, from its existing mortgagee(s), ground lessors and master lessors, if any, of the Property. At LESSOR's option, this Agreement shall be subordinate to any future master lease, ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest (a “Mortgage”) by LESSOR which from time to time may encumber all or part of the Property or right-of-way; provided, however, as a condition precedent to LESSEE being required to subordinate its interest in this Agreement to any future Mortgage covering the Property, LESSOR shall obtain for LESSEE's benefit a non-disturbance and attornment agreement for LESSEE's benefit in the form reasonably satisfactory to LESSEE, and containing the terms described below (the “Non-Disturbance Agreement”), and shall recognize LESSEE's right to remain in occupancy of and have access to the Premises as long as LESSEE is not in default of this Agreement beyond applicable notice and cure periods. The Non-Disturbance Agreement shall include the encumbering party's (“Lender's”) agreement that, if Lender or its successor-in-interest or any purchaser of Lender’s or its successor’s interest (a “Purchaser”) acquires an ownership interest in the Property, Lender or such successor-in-interest or Purchaser will (1) honor all of the terms of the Agreement, (2) fulfill LESSOR's obligations under the Agreement, and (3) promptly cure all of the then-existing LESSOR defaults under the Agreement. Such Non-Disturbance Agreement must be binding on all of Lender's participants in the subject loan (if any) and on all successors and assigns of Lender and/or its participants and on all Purchasers. In return for such Non-Disturbance Agreement, LESSEE will execute an agreement for Lender's benefit in which LESSEE (1) confirms that the Agreement is subordinate to the Mortgage or other real property interest in favor of Lender, (2) agrees to attorn to Lender if Lender becomes the owner of the Property and (3) agrees to accept a cure by Lender of any of LESSOR's defaults, provided such cure is

In the event LESSOR defaults in the payment and/or other performance of any mortgage or other real property interest encumbering the Property, LESSEE, may, at its sole option and without obligation, cure or correct LESSOR's default and upon doing so, LESSEE shall be subrogated to any and all rights, titles, liens and equities of the holders of such mortgage or other real property interest and LESSEE shall be entitled to deduct and setoff against all rents that may otherwise become due under this Agreement the sums paid by LESSEE to cure or correct such defaults.

26.27. DEFAULT.

a. In the event there is a breach by LESSEE with respect to any of the provisions of this Agreement or its obligations under it, including the payment of rent, LESSOR shall give LESSEE written notice of such breach. After receipt of such written notice, LESSEE shall have five (5) days in which to cure any monetary breach and thirty (30) days in which to cure any non-monetary breach, provided LESSEE shall have such extended period as may be required beyond the thirty (30) days if the nature of the cure is such that it reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days and LESSEE commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter continuously and diligently pursues the cure to completion. LESSOR may not maintain any action or effect any remedies for default against LESSEE unless and until LESSEE has failed to cure the breach within the time periods provided in this Paragraph.

b. In the event there is a breach by LESSOR with respect to any of the provisions of this Agreement or its obligations under it, LESSEE shall give LESSOR written notice of such breach. After receipt of such written notice, LESSOR shall have thirty (30) days in which to cure any such breach, provided LESSOR shall have such extended period as may be required beyond the thirty (30) days if the nature of the cure is such that it reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days and LESSOR commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter continuously and diligently pursues the cure to completion. LESSEE may not maintain any action or effect any remedies for default against LESSOR unless and until LESSOR has failed to cure the breach within the time periods provided in this Paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, it shall be a default under this Agreement if LESSOR fails, within five (5) days after receipt of written notice of such breach, to perform an obligation required to be performed by LESSOR if the failure to perform such an obligation interferes with LESSEE’s ability to conduct its business on the Property; provided, however, that if the nature of LESSOR’s obligation is such that more than five (5) days after such notice is reasonably required for its performance, then it shall not be a default under this Agreement if performance is commenced within such five (5) day period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion.

Site Name: Solar Walk

27.28. REMEDIES. Upon a default, the non-defaulting Party may at its option (but without obligation to do so), perform the defaulting Party’s duty or obligation on the defaulting Party’s behalf, including but not limited to the obtaining of reasonably required insurance policies. The costs and expenses of any such performance by the non-defaulting Party shall be due and payable by the defaulting Party upon invoice therefor. In the event of a default by either Party with respect to a material provision of this Agreement, without limiting the non-defaulting Party in the exercise of any right or remedy which the non-defaulting Party may have by reason of such default, the non-defaulting Party may terminate the Agreement and/or pursue any remedy now or hereafter available to the non-defaulting Party under the Laws or judicial decisions of the state in which the Premises are located; provided, however, the non-defaulting Party shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages in connection with a default by the other Party. If the non-defaulting Party so performs any of the defaulting Party’s obligations hereunder, the full amount of the reasonable and actual cost and expense incurred by the non-defaulting Party shall immediately be owing by the defaulting Party, and the defaulting Party shall pay to the non- defaulting Party upon demand the full undisputed amount thereof with interest thereon from the date of payment at the lesser of (i) ten percent (10%) per annum, or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable Laws.

Any such notice of termination shall cause this Agreement to expire with the same force and effect as though the date set forth in such notice were the date originally set as the expiration date of this Agreement and the Parties shall make an appropriate adjustment, as of such termination date, with respect to payments due to the other under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rent shall abate during the period of repair following such fire or other casualty in proportion to the degree to which LESSEE’s use of the Premises is impaired. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of damage by fire or other casualty to the Premises or Property caused solely by LESSEE’s activities on or use of the Premises, LESSEE shall repair such damage or LESSOR in its sole discretion shall repair such damage and LESSEE shall reimburse LESSOR for its actual and reasonable third party costs of repair, notwithstanding the provisions of

If as a result of a partial condemnation of the Premises or Property, LESSEE, in LESSEE’s sole discretion, is unable to use the Premises for the purposes intended hereunder, or if such condemnation may reasonably be expected to disrupt LESSEE's operations at the Premises for more than forty-five (45) days, LESSEE may, at LESSEE’s option, to be exercised in writing within fifteen (15) days after LESSOR shall have given LESSEE written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within fifteen (15) days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession) terminate this Agreement as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. LESSEE may on its own behalf make a claim in any condemnation proceeding involving the Premises for losses related to the equipment, conduits, fixtures, its relocation costs and its damages and losses (but not for the loss of its leasehold interest). Any such notice of termination shall cause this Agreement to expire with the same force and effect as though the date set forth in such notice were the date originally set as the expiration date of this Agreement and the Parties shall make an appropriate adjustment as of such termination date with respect to payments due to the other under this Agreement. If LESSEE does not terminate this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining, except that the rent shall be reduced in the same proportion as the rentable area of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable area of the Premises.

31.32. SUBMISSION OF AGREEMENT/PARTIAL INVALIDITY/AUTHORITY. The submission of this Agreement for examination does not constitute an offer to lease the Premises and this Agreement becomes effective only upon the full execution of this Agreement by the Parties.

Subject: Community for a Lifetime: CA’s Comprehensive Plan for Serving Older Adults

OVERVIEW/BACKGROUND At the March 13, 2014 Board Meeting, Management presented the older adult plan and the PSC led a discussion about the draft plan. This memo includes a list of suggested modifications to the Board Review Draft of the Community for a Lifetime: Columbia Association’s Comprehensive Plan for Serving Older Adults. These modifications address items raised during the PSC’s consideration and discussion of the draft plan on March 13, 2014 as well as other review comments. The modifications presented here include the addition of new text or figures or reworded text, which change the meaning of the language; and changes to where text occurs in the document to improve clarify or flow. Recommended additional text is shown below with underlining. In addition, based on further review of the document, Management has identified other changes such as capitalization, spelling, grammar, headings, numbering and similar items that will be made in the final version. These are not included in this list but will be completed when the plan is finalized.

RECOMMENDED CHANGES TO THE BOARD REVIEW VERSION OF THE PLAN Page 12, Plan Organization: Move this heading and text related to how the plan is organized to page 4 prior to the heading “Who is an Older Adult.” Page, 17, Chapter 3. Add the following text related to the Strategic Plan prior to the existing text. “Columbia Association Strategic Plan This plan for serving older adults is in alignment with Columbia Association’s Strategic Plan, which defines the organization’s mission, vision, values and goals. The full strategic plan is available at Columbia Assocaition.org. The mission and vision of Columbia Association are reiterated here. These set the strategic framework for this plan and its recommendations

1

Mission: Working every day in hundreds of ways to make Columbia an even better place to live, work and play. Vision: Making Columbia the community of choice – today and for generations to come. For a listing of how this plan’s recommendations relate to and advance the Strategic Plan goals, please refer to Figure 6 on page 34.“ (Note: Figure 6 is included beginning on page 4 of this listing of recommended changes.) Page 23, merge recommendations G and H as follows since they both address the same general issue: G: Groups and Outings. Offer day trips to natural, recreational, cultural and educational destinations of interest to older adults to complement trips offered by Howard County Recreation and Parks. Expand Columbia Art Center’s day trip Program (Off the Beaten Path). Delete “Recommendation H. Columbia Art Center Trips: Expand Columbia Art Center’s day trip Program (Off the Beaten Path).”

Identifying Plan Priorities Page 29, Implementation. Add a fourth bullet following the exiting three as follows: “Priority recommendations are highlighted with the priority symbol.” Pages 30‐33. Indicate priority recommendations with a priority symbol. Add the symbol to the following recommendations within the implementation matrix. Information, Training, Engagement: Recommendation G. Older Adult Subject Expert. Designate an older adult subject matter expert who would be Columbia Association’s in‐house resource. This person would be well‐informed about issues related to programming and facilities for older adults and play a role in training and education of Columbia Association team members who interact with the public. It is recommended that this staff member develop a relationship with UMBC’s Erikson School – Management of Aging Services, which could serve as a resource/educational partner related to how Columbia Association can enhance its coordination and delivery of service for older adults and implement this plan. Helping Older Adults Age in Place, Recommendation E. Home Repair Clearinghouse. Develop a clearinghouse (e.g., website) of information associated with home repair and remodeling services typically required by older adults but also helpful for Columbia community members in general. The clearinghouse would have information on home repair contractors and other services. This would be similar to Angie’s List but with contractors vetted by Columbia Association and pre‐established pricing information determined through an open solicitation process managed by Columbia Association. The objective would be to inform and empower older homeowners to effectively maintain their homes to support aging in place. Explore and develop a referral program for pre‐screened contractors for home repair and upkeep. Helping Older Adults Age in Place, Recommendation G. The Village in Howard. Once The Village in Howard organization gains its 501c3 designation, offer technical assistance such as volunteer training and access to the Volunteer Center Serving Howard County and Columbia Association’s Time Banking Program. Consider awarding a start‐up grant to The Village in Howard once it gains its 501c3 designation.

2

Information, Training, Engagement: Recommendation E. Training. Expand training of Columbia Association’s customer‐facing team members to understand and respond to the variety of older adult needs and physical abilities. Ensure that instructors are qualified to assist those with disabilities and to be able to address the needs of older adults. Mobility, Recommendation A: Expand Transportation Options. Bolster advocacy with the Howard County government related to expanding transportation options in addition to the private automobile for all ages as part of the regional transportation system. Programing, Recommendation D. Group Hikes and Walks. Introduce outdoor exercise and programs that would be attended by groups of older adults such as nature walks and hikes using pathways and open space. These activities would be managed by Columbia Association and led by either Columbia Association team members or volunteers. Also continue to work with other community partners to offer outdoor activities. Facilities, Recommendation E. Park Furnishings to Serve Older Adults. Explore the opportunity to introduce selected, additional outdoor equipment and furnishings at Columbia Association’s parks or open spaces to serve older adults. Partnering, Recommendation B. Office on Aging Continue to coordinate with the Howard County Office on Aging as it undertakes a facilities and services master plan for older adults and to assure that the interests of Columbia’s older adults are represented and reflected in the master plan. Health Promotion, Recommendation C. Mind‐Body Wellness. Include programs suitable for older adults in Columbia Association’s new mind‐body wellness facility, Haven on the Lake.

Revise Text to Make Several Recommendations More Action Oriented The following eight changes revise the recommendations so that they no longer begin with “Continue to.” Page 20, Recommendation A. Home Repair and Modification Program. Insert new language at the beginning of the recommendation as follows: “Increase publicity and continue …” Page 23, Recommendation A. Intergenerational Programming. Delete the words “Continue to” from the beginning of the recommendation. Page 24, Recommendation F. Program Monitoring. Delete the words “Continue to” from the beginning of the recommendation. Page 25, Recommendation D. Walkable/Livable Communities. Delete the words “Continue to” from the beginning of the recommendation. Page 26, Recommendation B. Office on Aging. Delete “Continue to” from the beginning of the sentence. Page 27, Recommendation D. Video and Live Streaming. Move first sentence of this recommendation and insert it as the last sentence of the recommendation. Page 27, recommendation F. Community Engagement. Delete the words “continue to” from the beginning of the recommendation. Page 28, Recommendation B. Healthy Lifestyles. Delete the words “Continue to” from the beginning of the recommendation.
