Comm. Ninutes--Dec. 5, 1989 391 15. SOCIAL SERVICES, Averages on contributions Since each Commissioner has their own thoughts on how the $85,000 could be distributed, Mr. Shannon suggested charting each Commissioner's dollar amounts and average them to arrive at how the money would be distributed to various agencies. Hr. Wieland was not in favor of this because someone could put in a number of zeros. MOTION, passed Hr. Shannon moved and Hrs. Toussaint seconded to use as the criteria for distributing the $85,000 a system of averages whereby each of the Commissioners and the Social Services Board make a recommendation for the respective agencies listed, or any other agencies; subject to a maximum expenditure of $85,000. The motion carried. 16.
