Separation & Divorce MeDiation NEWS "I tend to agree with Moya, people Town to look at Cedarvale for seniors centre location Continued from page 23 seem to think that Gellert is going to be the answer, but to me, the demographics (show that) the old part of Georgetown is where the seniors are," said Mayor Rick Bonnette. The Town's Manager of Recreation Services Samantha Kleinschmidt said staff did do an internal review on Cedarvale for the se- niors centre and discounted it because of the cost of the upgrades required, significant site restrictions for parking and a drop off zone, improvements required for accessibil- ity including an elevator and the uncertainty of the Arme- nian group's future involvement within the building.
