6. Resolutions or Proclamations
a. Proposed Resolution To Name the New Southern Orange Senior Center For
Robert and Pearl Seymour
The Board considered a resolution to name the New Southern Orange Senior Center for
Robert and Pearl Seymour.
Commissioner Jacobs pointed out that the light green sheet is a revision to the
proposed name that was sent to him by Jerry Passmore, Director of Department on Aging. The
sheet suggests the name "Robert and Pearl Seymour Center for Longevity and Well-Being."
Chair Carey said that he encourages the Board to consider this strongly because of the
exemplary service that they have both provided to the County in working to ensure that seniors
have a place to go.
Commissioner Halkiotis said that this is an appropriate thing to do. The Seymour's have
worked tirelessly for seniors in Orange County.
Commissioner Halkiotis asked Jerry Passmore how many senior centers in the state
were called "Centers for Longevity and Well-Being." Jerry Passmore said that this would be a
first and that the focus is more on what are they trying to do with older citizens instead of
focusing on seniors. The intent is indicated with the new proposed name.
Commissioner Halkiotis said that the people that are going to use the center should
choose the name.
Jerry Passmore said that they have done a poll of the seniors about the name, and they
liked the name "Center for Longevity and Well-Being." He would be more than happy to do
another poll and let them decide.
Chair Carey said that most of the people he has heard from want it to be called the
Robert and Pearl Seymour Center.
Commissioner Gordon said that she liked what Chair Carey said for its simplicity.
A motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Halkiotis to
approve a resolution to name the New Southern Orange Senior Center for Robert and Pearl
Seymour by calling it the "Robert and Pearl Seymour Center," with further investigation into
what, if anything, might be added to this name.
