Summary Explanation and Background:

The County has contracted the operation of the Senior Centers since the mid-1970s; the Martin Andersen Senior Center is located in Rockledge and the Wickham Park Senior Center is located in Melbourne. The Senior Center organizations are private Not-for-Profit corporations. These partnerships enables all socioeconomic levels of the senior population the opportunity to participate in programs and services designed to meet their recreational, physical, financial, health, social, nutritional and educational needs.

On August 18, 2015 the Board of County Commissioners approved individual leases for the operation of the Senior Centers for a five-year term. Approval of the lease renewals will grant an additional five-year term extending the contracts to August 17, 2025. The lease renewal documents have been reviewed and approved by both the County Attorney and Risk Management.

Brevard County Code of Ordinances, Chapter 2, Section 2-241 through Section 2-251, establishes procedures for the sale, leasing and donation of real property. It requires the intent and County Code to be published on the County website at least five days prior to the public meeting and also requires a supermajority vote by the Board. The posting requirement was successfully completed on July 15, 2020.
