Council approves $6,000 annual contribution to keep seniors' programming at Washington Terrace
Summary
Council approved a three-year interlocal agreement where South Ogden will pay roughly $6,000 this year (with CPI and a 3% annual increase) to help sustain staffing and programming at the Washington Terrace senior center while Weber Human Services continues to fund program operations.
Council approved Resolution 25-17, committing to a local contribution to sustain senior programming at the Washington Terrace senior center.
Mr. Dixon provided historical context: South Ogden previously operated its own senior center and later closed it, reallocating county-funded support to Wellington Terrace. He said Weber Human Services will continue to fund programming and staffing, Washington Terrace will maintain the physical facility and utilities, and South Ogden's contribution covers the delta related to local pay increases and related costs. "South Ogden is committing to pay the 6,000 this year plus the CPI and 3% moving forward for the next 2 years of the 3 year agreement," Dixon said, explaining the negotiated terms.
Council discussed whether county funding might be increased; staff reported no updates and said the county expects cities to pick up increased local costs. Council approved the agreement by roll call.
