COA notes governor's proposal to raise senior formula grant from $12 to $14
The Ware Council on Aging recorded that the new governor of Massachusetts proposed raising the FY24 elder formula grant from $12.00 per senior in each town to $14.00 per senior. The minutes note the funding "will be adjusted for senior population when the 2020 Census becomes available if needed." No specific local budget figures or timelines for implementation were recorded.

Council members discussed the proposal as a potential increase in per-senior funding but did not record any formal vote or fiscal action tied to the proposal during the meeting. The minutes do not report whether the COA will take any formal position or submit comments on the proposed change.
