The Advisory Committee appointed CM Mack as the representative and CM Ito as the alternate. 7.3 DEVELOPMENT OF CODE OF CONDUCT POLICY Staff recommended establishing a Code of Conduct Policy for patrons, volunteers and Staff of the Dublin Senior Center. A dozen policies from other Senior Centers were reviewed by Staff. The Advisory Committee was given samples from the cities of Pleasanton and Rancho Cucamonga. Staff compiled a list of reoccurring code of conduct topics for discussion with the Advisory Committee. CM Krausnick felt the policy was a good idea and asked about personal hygiene standards. She suggested this issue could be subjective and vary in different cultures. Staff gave examples where mental health could be a factor, and hygiene may be an ongoing challenge that needs to be addressed. CM Guarienti suggested the policy be written concisely, but not as specific as the Pleasanton Senior Center policy. Staff stated two forms of the policy could be developed. One could be a single page document with an overview for posting, and a second could provide detailed points of the policy available by request. CM Krausnick suggested the policy be made available in other languages. Staff indicated this could be done. The posted policy would note that the policy is available in other languages and may be obtained at the front desk. Commissioner Mack stated the policy is valuable but wanted to make sure the Senior Center does not lose its "welcoming" reputation. CM Mack stated the policy will show we care about the welfare of our patrons. i 1 I 1 1 1 I a; CITY OF DUBLIN SENIOR CENTER ADVISORY COMMITTEE MINUTES OF JUNE 5,2014 Page 3 of 4 j The Advisory Committee concurred with Staff and recommended Staff develop a Code of Conduct Policy for the Dublin Senior Center.
