Senior Center Engagement FAQ.

Redmond, WA – The City of Redmond invites community members to review the preferred options to envision the future of the Redmond Senior Center.

Please join us on February 10, starting at 6:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at City Hall, 15670 NE 85^th Street, Redmond, WA 98052. This meeting will begin with a formal presentation at 6:45 p.m., followed by conversations and activities. In addition to this meeting, there will be another meeting in the Council Chambers following the Senior Lunch on Thursday, February 13, at 1 p.m. covering the same topics.

The purpose of this outreach is to reveal and review the two options moving forward as we envision the future of the Senior Center. These options have emerged out of the first round of public outreach and community input. The Redmond Senior Center closed in September 2019 and needs to be renovated or demolished and rebuilt before it can reopen. During the community involvement process in January, the community was asked to evaluate options from renovating the Senior Center, to expanding it to include some new amenities. The second phase of engagement will allow the community to give input on the final two recommendations which will become a final recommendation to City Council in March.

“As we envision the future of the Senior Center, community involvement and collaboration is vital,” said Redmond Mayor Angela Birney. “Listening to the community to understand their needs and hopes for the future of Redmond will help ensure that our community spaces serve our residents for many years to come.”
