OUTCOMES:
The desire to build and open a Senior and Community Center by the end of 2023 has been well documented by stakeholders, citizens, and City Council.
COMMUNITY/STAKEHOLDER OUTREACH AND INVOLVEMENT:
• Timeline (previous or planned):
See Attachment A: Community and Stakeholder Outreach and Involvement
• Outreach Methods and Results:
Outreach Methods: public meetings, email, city newsletters, city website, lunch briefings with seniors, postcard mailers, social media posts, press releases, online surveys, results-gathered by online surveys, paper surveys, monthly Encore updates to seniors, and comment cards
• Feedback Summary:
Feedback included items such as build a larger facility than what formerly existed at the Senior Center, with the understanding that Redmond’s existing recreation spaces are already underserving its senior population, as well as other demographic groups. Future growth is expected and needs to be addressed by considering future demand and trends that keep our community healthy, active, and connected across neighborhoods, ages and cultures.
