#74 – COMMUNICATION FROM THE MAYOR REGARDING NEW SENIOR/COMMUNITY LIFE CENTER
The following communication from the Mayor regarding a proposal for a new Senior/Community Life Center was received and placed on file.
February 10, 2009
Honorable Salem City Council
Salem City Hall
Salem, Massachusetts 01970
Re: Proposal for a new Senior/Community Life Center at Boston/Bridge Intersection
Ladies and Gentlemen of the Council:
As you know, in Salem, building a new senior center has been at the center of political discussions for decades. Plan after plan has been debated with many locations identified from the city-owned Szetela Lane property to the former Bell Atlantic Telephone building on St. Peter Street. Unfortunately, rather than producing a new senior center facility these discussions ended where they began with political infighting and bewilderment.
Last Thursday morning I held a meeting at the Council on Aging to update seniors and other interested members of the public on the City’s efforts to build a new senior center. I have had an opportunity to meet with many of you individually to discuss the status of the City’s plans for a new senior center and during those meetings was encouraged by your thoughtfulness and understanding of the analysis and results related to the evaluation undertaken by the City of the three sites identified by the Senior Center Committee. With that in mind, I am recommending that the City proceed with constructing a new Senior/Community Life Center, as part of a joint development at the intersection of Boston and Bridge Streets. Enclosed herewith please find the following proposed Orders in connection with this recommendation:
An Order authorizing the City to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement to acquire a first floor, 20,000+ square foot facility as part of a new, three story 75,000 + square foot facility to be constructed on this site for $4,994,136.00.
An Order authorizing the submission and approval of a Section 108 Loan application to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to help finance the proposed acquisition.
An Order declaring the current Council on Aging building on Broad Street surplus so that an orderly disposition process can be undertaken with sale proceeds helping to finance the proposed acquisition.
As you may recall, following the narrow defeat of the last proposal to build a new center at the former St. Joseph’s site, a Senior Center Committee was created “to investigate possible locations for a new senior center.” For over a year a Committee, comprised of representatives from the Council, the Administration, and several senior advocacy groups met and reviewed site options, determined facility and programming requirements and solicited public opinion on possible center locations. Ultimately, the Committee unanimously adopted a report that identified the following three sites as “viable” options for a new senior center facility: city-owned land on Memorial Drive, city-owned land on Fort Avenue, and a private parcel located at the corner of Boston and Bridge Streets.
Following the work of the Committee, a final report was presented to the City Council. The Council accepted the report and recommended that the City conduct an extensive review of each site. That work has been completed and determined that the cost to build a new center on the two city-owned parcels far exceeded the cost to acquire a new center as part of a joint development at the intersection of Boston/Bridge. Further, the financing model the City is utilizing requires an annual
additional revenue stream to support any new debt associated with a new building. I have attached a summary of the city’s findings and rationale for this recommendation to this correspondence.
I trust that you recognize that there is no “perfect” site for a new senior center and that not everyone will be happy with whatever site is recommended. However, I also believe that given the age of our present COA building, its lack of accessibility, coupled with the fact that it is comprised of only 15,000 square feet, spread out over three floors with extremely limited parking, we can no longer afford to ignore this problem. Salem’s seniors deserve a first class facility and the present center is deteriorating, thus hampering our ability to enhance or expand programming.
The City needs to deal with this head-on, even during these difficult financial times. After more than a year of study, it is time for action. I hope you can understand my desire to move this issue forward and that you will be open, if not supportive, of the proposed site. I look forward to our future deliberations on this important matter.
Very truly yours,
Kimberley Driscoll
Mayor
