Alderman Winings reported that the Clayton Century Foundation (CCF) recently held an Executive Board meeting and a Subcommittee discussing the list of current projects that they will be presenting to the Board of Aldermen soon, possibly at the joint meeting scheduled October 21. The CCF is currently seeking nominations for their Board and welcomes any suggestions from the Board of Aldermen. He will provide the Board with copies of the CCF nomination form. Alderman Boulton reported on the following:  Senior Survey - Although meetings/discussions have been delayed until after the elections due to space availability their (2) focus groups (approximately 25 people) have been moving forward. Great job working with Robyn Frankel.

 Public Arts Advisory Committee - working on recommendations for locations to place the art pieces donated by the Art Museum. Patty DeForrest and staff is working on estimates for the installation of the art pieces.

 Plan Commission/ARB – the August 1 meeting held at the Clayton High School auditorium was very well attended (approximately 342 people). Suggestion to have hard copies of the PowerPoint presentation available for the members due to the difficulty of seeing the projection screen. Alderman Berger reported that the CRSWC held a meeting and had a very good presentation on the FY2017 Budget; expenses have been controlled significantly; concentration on marketing and sustaining membership. Ongoing work around the capital plan will be presented at a later date.
