commit one way or the other at the January meeting.
A list of potential vendors was distributed. There will also be press releases sent out targeting health care
facilities. The number of vendors is limited so it will be on a first come first serve basis. The invitations
and press releases were just sent out. So far only 2 places have confirmed,the Buffalo Grove Police
Department and Lake County Health Department.
Trustee Sussman inquired if the Blood Commission should be a part of the Board of Health. All of the
Commissioners present felt they should be kept separate and that the Blood Commission has a vital roil in
the community. Furthermore,they felt by combining the two commissions,it may dilute the importance of
the Blood Commission. Everyone agreed the blood drives are very important and that it best if the two
remain separate.
