Board honors Center at Belvedere on 65th anniversary
Summary
The Albemarle County Board of Supervisors adopted a proclamation recognizing the Center at Belvedere’s 65 years serving older adults; the center’s executive director joined the meeting online to accept the honor.
The Albemarle County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Feb. 19 to adopt a proclamation celebrating the 65th anniversary of the Center at Belvedere. The board read the proclamation and recognized the center’s long-running role supporting healthy aging in Albemarle County.
Supervisor Ned Galloway read the proclamation noting the center was founded in 1960 and is “an award winning nonprofit organization supporting older adults in our region,” and the board recorded its appreciation during a formal roll call. Melanie Benjamin, identified in board materials as the center’s executive director, joined virtually and thanked the board: “Thank you so much, Board of Supervisors, for honoring the center on its 65th year of service.”
Board members highlighted the center’s growth since the 1960s and the county’s 2017 investment that updated the facility. The board’s action was procedural: the proclamation was moved by Supervisor Galloway, seconded by Supervisor Malek, and approved by roll call. The proclamation does not create a county program or budget obligation; it is a formal recognition of the center’s anniversary and community contributions.
