The Center which is operated by the City is the primary senior service

addressing all human service needs in the local area. The County Area Agency
on Aging (Triple "A") is pleased with the services provided and has proposed
that the existing agreement to operate the Center be extended for another year
beginning July 1,1988 (see attached).
During the 1~87-P8 fiscal year, the Center operated on a budget of $67,340.
This consisted of a Council appropriation of $46,387 from Community
Development Block Grant funds and a Triple "A" grant of $20,953. This amount
of funding is considered necessary to sustain the program at its current level
of service. Although the program has historically been funded in large part

1988-89, and a total funding phaseout is proposed by AAA for FY 1989-90.
