Senior Citizen Center Talks Advance In Lompoc
The Lompoc Civic Building Committee, chaired by Councilwoman Charlotte Benton, will reconvene at noon Thursday in City Hall to craft a recommendation for a senior citizen facility. The group weighs building anew versus purchasing existing sites such as the Knights of Pythias lodge on Laurel Avenue or the Church of Christ building, with costs and funding from Block Grant and Older Americans Act under review. Public input is welcome, and costs for renovation and accessibility are being evaluated.
