Senior center users say promised activities, access still lacking
Summary
A Norwalk senior raised concerns during oral communications that activity rooms and fitness spaces at the Norwalk Senior Center are being used by staff or nonresidents, leaving seniors with limited programming and accessibility; she asked council to intervene.
Cynthia Clemente used the public-comment period to describe unmet promises at the Norwalk Senior Center, saying rooms designated for seniors are being used by staff and nonresidents and that scheduled commissioner meetings have been canceled without notice. "Instead of activity rooms are being, converted to rooms for the staff members," Clemente said, adding that seniors are crowded in shared spaces and that promised programs have not been delivered.
Clemente named staff and commissioners she had spoken to and urged the council to visit the center to see conditions; no council action was taken during the meeting, but the mayor asked staff to follow up and contact the speaker.
