Summary
St. James Township Clerk Jean Palmer announced expanded senior services in October 2002: Meals-on-Wheels was growing from three to five customers, Dining Out vouchers were available at Dalwhinnie, and forms could help seniors seek heating and tax credits. A house-cleaning program still needed workers.
Evidence limits
The notice describes services and a proposed program, not eligibility records, participation counts beyond the stated Meals-on-Wheels number, or outcomes.
