New Youth Bureau and Youth Advisory Council Leader: Supervisor Russell was present to give us an update on the search for the NEW Phillip. He presented us with the requirements for a “Youth Services Specialist” (see attachment). He explained that if the position would be called Director, they would have to supervise someone. As it will be posted, the new head of the YB and YAC will report directly to Supervisor Russell. He also presented some ideas, suggestions for what the new leader could do for the Town of Southold youth, and he asked us (the Youth Bureau Board) for any other suggestions. On this note, I reached out to the YB and YAC and received one suggestion back from a young man. His suggestion was that the new leader “should be up on current events or popular culture. He thinks when working with teenagers, this is a good trait to have”, and I totally agree with him. Andrea spoke about an upcoming event, on Friday March 4 at Founders Landing th concerning bullying in the community. She thought it would be good if we could be represented at this function and Chrissy volunteered with Karen as her backup if she can’t make it. Next Meeting Weds Feb 24 at 5PM at the Peconic La.
