OLD BUSINESS

POA MEMBERSHIP CARD: R. Reinhart again presented the idea of having an Association Membership Card, which would have important telephone numbers on it and advice for critical incidents. Discussion held. Recommendation was made to post the necessary information on critical incidents on the web site.

PORAC INSURANCE: R. Reinhart said the PORAC’s Insurance & Benefits Trust has had some problems with insurance representatives being non-responsive to members needs and general complaints about the vendors. R. Reinhart said that since the last Orange County PORAC Chapter Meeting he has received correspondence from some of the insurance vendors: AFLAC; Myers-Stevens.

R. Reinhart said that any members with insurance held with any of the PORAC vendors can file complaints with the I&B Trust/ Committee of PORAC at 800-937-6722 or with the Region IV Representative: Charles Gouge at 619-531-4391.

D. Hashin said that he had received a membership list from Myers-Stevens to verify for the basic group insurance coverage offered by PORAC for the membership and found it to be grossly inaccurate. He will be trying to correct the list.

NEW BUSINESS

POA CHRISTMAS PARTY: The Annual POA Christmas Party has been scheduled for Sunday, December 7, 2003, at the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort & Spa. At the last POA/ Senior Staff Meeting Chuck Thomas inquired about trying to make the POA Party the "Department Party." Discussion was held regarding that if we were trying to ultimately have one party then the PMA Holiday Party would have to be canceled for it gave the impression of a divided department still.

After lengthy discussion it was the decision to let our membership decide how they would want to approach this. Motion by A. Preece and J. Nelson to table any decision until the September General Membership Meeting, with all concurring.
