Senior Center denied funds

Decatur Daily Democrat:

Despite a request earlier this year from board members of the South Adams Senior Center for financial assistance from the city for the day-to-day operations of the center, the 2012 budget unveiled before Berne City Council on Monday contained no such appropriation.

In May of this year, representatives of the senior center asked the city to commit $6,225 toward operation of the center in 2012. That figure represents $1.50 per capita for each of Berne's 4,150 citizens, former Berne mayor and current senior center board member Blaine Fulton said at the time.
