Resolution No. 2020 -17
With this memo, I am recommending the adoption of Resolution No. 2020 -17 authorizing the use
of funds remaining from two previous Senior Center projects for a new project creating an
alternate entrance into the Senior Center's Computer Lab.
Currently, the Computer Lab is adjacent to the entrance to Vintage Pointe from the Senior Center.
Several t imes throughout each day, this small hallway becomes congested especially after
meetings in the Computer Lab or use of the Social Security Video Conferencing . Walkers,
wheelchairs or individuals requiring assistance often find themselves in a "traffic jam". A new
entrance will provide access to the Computer Lab away from the Vintage Pointe Corridor and will
allow staff and volunteers increased monitoring of the computers and other equipment situated in
the Computer Room .
This project will involve creating a doorway through an existing closet from the Game Room into
the Computer Lab. The closet currently is used for storing supplies. To compensate for the loss
of closet storage, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry will be purchased and incorporated into the Game
Room area.
Thank you for your consideration.
