Designs coming soon for new senior center
Butler County on Wednesday took the first step toward turning 215 North Duffy Road into a senior center and office space for the Butler County Area Agency on Aging.
County commissioners approved a $137,682 agreement with Moshier Studio to design the conversion of the building, which the county purchased in February, into “a senior center, supporting outreach programs and miscellaneous county administrative offices.”
The Butler Township property, the former home of the Butler Health and Racquet Club, also will house “bathrooms and laundry services” in the existing basement locker room. The county also hopes to add a kitchen and expand a mezzanine into an open office area.
This story was updated at 4 p.m. May 11, 2022 to remove mention of “homeless services,” an item that was incorrectly stated in documents provided to the Butler Eagle. The senior center will not provide homeless services.
