Title

Commission to discuss and vote on changes to the previously approved September 11, 2025 Veterans Affairs Commission (VAC) Meeting Date.

 

Commissioner Millham reported that South Lake Tahoe holds community ceremonies every September 11th, Veterans Day, and Memorial Day. These events begin at 11:00 AM and typically draw around 150 attendees at the American Legion Post. Millham expressed concern about scheduling the VAC meeting on September 11th, suggesting that the meeting be postponed by a week to avoid conflicting with ceremonies in South Lake Tahoe and other locations. Commissioner Reynolds noted that he, Vice Chair Commissioner Smith, Veterans Service Officer Brown, and Veterans Service Office Administrative Technician Courtney Frame had met earlier that morning to discuss the September 11th VAC meeting date. During that meeting, they agreed to proceed with the scheduled date due to conflicts that would arise from rescheduling. Reynolds acknowledged that September 11th is not a federal holiday but recommended observing a moment of silence to honor the significance of the day. Commissioner Culver supported keeping the original date, citing scheduling conflicts with the South Lake Tahoe Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA). Commissioner Smith also agreed, emphasizing the importance of a moment of silence while maintaining the scheduled meeting. Timalynn Jaynes, Assistant Director of Human Services, inquired about the meeting location and whether a quorum would be present. Frame confirmed the meeting would be held at 3368 Sandy Way in the Large Conference Room, and after checking with the Commissioners, verified that a quorum would be met.
