Linda Oswald, president and Kathy Herron, secretary of the SB-40 Board, were present to discuss the possibility of the commission disbanding the current board and appointing the current directors of the Sheltered Workshop and Learning Center as a combined board of directors for distribution of tax funds. They expressed that their only duty is to meet and appropriate the funds. All other duties are taken care of by the respective boards for each facility.
