Faribault Area Senior Center Expansion Update on AM Minnesota

Faribault Area Senior Center Executive Director Mona Kaiser will be the guest on today's KDHL AM Minnesota program.

Earlier this week, Kaiser went before the Faribault City Council meeting as a joint committee and requested the city provide a $230,000 donation toward the proposed expansion of the facility.

No formal vote was taken because it was a joint committee meeting. A majority of the council indicated they could go along with a $152,000 donation.

Kaiser updated those in attendance where the capital campaign presently sits and will share those numbers with all of us today. I know when 90 percent of the $2.1 million goal is reached, the Senior Center will set the wheels in motion for the project.

Kaiser is hopeful the necessary money will be raised by mid-winter so they can break ground in the spring. We will discuss the timeline more on today's show.

If you can't tune in at 9:30AM on KDHL 920 AM go to our YouTube channel and watch the program at your leisure.

Just a reminder, if you head off to somewhere warm in the winter (they call them snowbirds) you can take KDHL with you and still be informed about what's happening in the area.
