TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Dave Osberg, City Administrator
DATE: July 16, 2009
SUBJECT: Joint Powers Program Senior Center Program Proposed Amendment
RECOMMENDED CITY COUNCIL ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council take action approving action that memorializes
the following understanding between the City of Hastings and ISD #200 regarding the
Hastings Area Senior Center:
"Be it resolved, if the Hastings Area Senior Center were sold, and the Senior Center
relocated to another facility, the City of Hastings and Independent School District #200
understand and agree the proceeds from the sale of the Senior Center would be used for
the purchase and/or remodeling of a facility to accommodate the needs of the Senior
Center program."
BACKGROUND
Currently the City of Hastings owns the building in which the Senior Center program
operates. Both the City of Hastings and ISD #200 contributed equally over a ten year
period the annual payment for the funding of the facility. At the joint meeting between
the City of Hastings City Council and the ISD #200 School Board on June 11, 2009 there
was general agreement, with no official action taken, that if in the future the existing
Senior Center building were ever sold, the proceeds would be used for a different Senior
Center building, for purchase and/or remodeling. While all parties were in general
agreement of the concept, there was nothing officially documented by either the City
Council or the School Board. The action above will memorialize the understanding of
the City of Hastings regarding the proceeds of any future sale of the facility in which the
Senior Ceram is currently located.
