Dear
Vice
Mayor
Manny
Cappello
and
City
Clerk
Crystal
Bothelio:
I
had
hoped
to
attend
this
evening’s
City
Council
meeting,
as
requested.
I
apologize,
but
unfortunately
I
cannot
attend.
Here
is
a
statement
for
your
consideration:
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
provided
by
the
City
to
learn
about
linkAges
TimeBank,
a
service
of
the
Palo
Alto
Medical
Foundation.
I
was
impressed
by
the
service’s
goal
to
improve
seniors’
emotional
quality
of
life
through
service-‐based
interactive
opportunities
that
reduce
social
isolation
and
loneliness.
Persons
can
assist
other
persons
in
many
ways
through
the
service,
and
one
example
is
giving
rides
to
seniors
whose
transportation
options
are
limited.
It
would
be
terrific
for
seniors
to
gain
free
rides
to
the
library
as
a
result.
The
Palo
Alto
Medical
Foundation’s
goal
is
to
“engage
residents,
bring
the
community
together,
bridge
generational
gaps,
and
serve
those
in
need.”
If
the
City
forms
a
partnership
with
the
Medical
Foundation,
I
look
forward
to
working
with
the
City
and
the
Medical
Foundation
on
these
important
goals.
Thank
you
for
the
special
opportunity
to
learn
about
linkAges
TimeBank.
Best
regards,
Allison
