(402) Recommendation: Information only. Receive the Senior Center Scoping Study as presented by the Senior Affairs Commission and the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Commission. Mr. Chris Beth, Director of Parks, Recreation and Community Services, explained the reasons for the Scoping Study. He introduced Joe Kinsella who explained that this is a long time coming. He then introduced the consultant, Lauren Livingston, who covered critical next steps and possible recommendations. She added that developing a funding plan or scheme will be important. Mr. Alex Wright said that they attempted to focus on seniors and the concept that "Seniors Deserve Better". The preliminary cost estimate is about 10.5 million. Council asked questions about the theater. Mr. Beth explained this is very dear to the seniors and that there is a chance to consolidate it with the community room much like Sunnyvale did. One Council Member wanted to check on opportunities to partner and build relationships possibly combining public and private sectors. One Council Member wanted more details on multi-generational uses. One Council Member mentioned how this center is close and dear to her explaining the reasons why. Staff was cautioned that its design needs to consider future needs as growth will probably be exponential. Various Council Members wanted to capitalize on the history of the site by trying to package and possibly market that legacy. It was suggested that staff focus on inter- generational uses and consider 80,000 sq. feet. Council thanked all the presenters. B.
