City Wants Feedback on Senior Services

The City of Medicine Hat is conducting a consultation around senior services. In August 2016, city staff were directed by City Council to examine alternative operating models, along with associated operating costs, as part of the Seniors Centre Development Project.

Throughout the month of December, residents will have several opportunities to share their thoughts, ideas and opinions, through several engagement activities around the community, an online forum (medicinehat.ca/ShapeYourCity), and a survey. Two community consultation sessions have also been scheduled:

• December 12 – Veiner Centre from 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm
• December 17 – Medicine Hat Public Library from 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

Everyone is welcome to attend. Those unable to attend can submit their feedback online through a survey and forum at medicinehat.ca/ShapeYourCity.

Once the community consultation is complete, staff will evaluate the feedback, explore alternative operating models, and subsequently bring a recommendation forward to Council in the spring of 2020.
