About The Advisory Board As a department of Hamburg Township, the Senior Center follows policies and procedures developed by the Senior Program Director with assistance from the Senior Advisory Board and set by the Township Board of Trustees. The Center is administered by a Director who answers to the Township Board. Other Senior Center staff include the department administrative assistant responsible directly to the Director. The nutrition site hostess is employed by Paragon Management (Livingston County Senior Nutrition Program.) The board passed a vote to now have board meetings held every other month. This now means that advisory board meetings will only be held 6 times a year, unless an urgent matter comes up, in which case we can call a meeting to order. If you are interested in becoming a board member in the future please contact the office to get more information.
