COAST CHAPTER MINUTES FOR
JUNE 15, 2013
Meeting to Order @ 1:09 PM
The invocation, SAR Pledge and Pledge of Allegiance were led
by acting President, Gary Cooper.
Attendance: 8 members
and 1 guest speaker.
Sunshine Report:
Phil Rader and Jerry Evans were in attendance and appear to
be in good health. Bill Siler’s trip is going well and his next stop will be Canada.
Guest Speaker Presentation:
Officer Tim Koznek, SLO PD. Officer Koznek has five years
with San Luis Obispo PD and prior law
enforcement experience with Atascadero PD and Santa Barbara
Co. Sheriff’s Dept. Officer Koznek
said that the new chief has taken a more proactive stance
with the homeless or transient populations
because fully one third of all calls involve these individuals.
Regrettably, SLO’s reputation as being
a caring city for those in a homeless circumstance led to an
ever increasing transient population and
an increase in crime. The newly formed Community Action Team
(CAT) will address the issues caused by these populations. Q & A followed.
Secretary’s Report: Reading
of last month’s meeting was waived.
Treasurer’s Report: $1884.22 is the current account balance.
New Business:
Jerry mentioned a new CASSAR T-shirt which is available for
$21.00. He will bring to our next meeting which will be in September. There will be no meeting in July
and August.
Russ Haynes produced informational brochure for review. We
will vote on whether to
have them professionally printed in September.
Benediction and Closing Pledge led by Gary Cooper.
Adjournment.
Respectfully Submitted,
Chris Scrimiger, Chapter Secretary
Guest speaker Tim Koznek, and acting president, Gary Cooper
