Dr. Cutrell called the <br />meeting to order at 7:10 A.M. The board members present <br />were Dr. Cutrell, Rev.

Dr. <br />Strom made a motion that the Indigent Health Care Agreement <br />be approved. Dr. Kraft seconded the motion. All were in <br />favor of the County Indigent Health Care Agreement today. <br />Space for the WIC program was discussed by Barbra Francis. <br />She needs another 8x10 office for interviewing patients. <br />Anthony talked to Roy Chadwick about portable buildings. One <br />drawback is that these buildings contain asbestos. We need <br />to find out if the asbestos could be removed. WIC has an <br />excess of $6,000.00 now. Barbra Francis would have to have <br />an approval from Austin to use this money and the budget would <br />have to be amended. <br />Dr. Kraft asked if we could go ahead and put the roof on <br />for $14,420.00 and pay for it out of the present budget. The <br />City Council will need to approve us amending the budget to <br />spend money now. Dr. Cutrell wants us to get an approval as.. <br />soon as possible. <br />Number five on the Agenda was to change the quorum from <br />five members to four members . There are currently eight <br />board members. Dr. Cutrell made a motion and it was seconded <br />to enlarge our board from eight to nine members. All were in <br />favor and the motion was passed. <br />The monthly report was read by Anthony Bethel. There was <br />no well -child clinic last month due to our nurse participating <br />in the Lamar County Special Olympics. One skunk had a positive <br />rabies report from Austin. The skunk was from the Brookston <br />area and no one was bitten. <br />The next meeting was scheduled for 7:00 A.M. on June 29, <br />1988 at the Holiday Inn.
