Reminder: East Cobb Senior Center town hall meeting on senior fees is Friday

East Cobb Senior Center

A couple weeks ago we posted the notice that the East Cobb Senior Center is the first venue for several town hall meetings this month on proposed fee increases for senior services in Cobb County.

That first town hall is coming up Friday, from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and will be hosted by Cobb Commission Chairman Mike Boyce.

The East Cobb Senior Center is located at 3332 Sandy Plains Road, and the town hall meeting is free and open to the public.

Cobb commissioners have approved imposing an annual membership fee for seniors for the first time, at a charge of $60. The non-resident fee is $90, but at a commission meeting in November, a number of seniors, including some who regularly use the East Cobb Senior Center, strongly objected.

Boyce said he wants to collect further feedback before the fee changes, which also would cover spring classes and offerings, go into effect Feb. 1.
