Parking Rules for The Civitan Center and Payroll Days

When you come to The Civitan Center on Payroll Fridays to pick up your check, please be very careful about where you park and when.

If you arrive between 2:10 and 3:15 PM, do NOT pull into or park in The Civitan Center Parking Lot.  You must park either on the street or next door at the Boys and Girls Club.

If you park on the street, remember to park WITH the flow of traffic.  The Benton Police patrol this area and can/will give you a ticket if you park facing the wrong direction.

Never PARK in the bus lane. (The bus lane is between the awning and the fountain.)  The large buses need all the room available and they are in and out from 2:10 - 3:15.

If you are checking out a client on a Payroll day, you must park and pick up your check first.  Then you can pull your vehicle up to the front to load your client. Alternatively, you can return to The Civitan Center later to pick up your check after 3:15.

Remember that the circle drive is One Direction!  (Enter from the Boys and Girls Club side and exit toward the church.)

Do NOT mark more than 1 letter per objective!

Please do not mark more than one letter (I,V,P) for each objective. If you have to verbally remind the client to take a shower, but they were able to shower on their own, they will receive a “V” for the objective. The narrative is where it should be indicated that you verbally prompted however, the client was able to complete task independently. If you start the water or measure out soap and shampoo, they will receive a “P” for the objective. Likewise, indicate in the narrative what assistance was given. As case managers, we review documentation quarterly and if the client is able to complete the objective successfully 80% of time we will remove the objective.
