Fitchburg, WI Commission on Aging Well 3-12-26

The Fitchburg, WI Commission on Aging Well held a meeting on March 12, 2026, focusing primarily on administrative and operational updates for the senior center. Key procurement-related discussions included the review and adjustment of room rental policies, specifically for the wellness room used by independent contractors such as foot care providers, massage therapists, and acupuncturists. The commission proposed establishing a new tiered flat fee structure for the wellness room rental at $50 per hour for four-hour blocks, replacing inconsistent fee splits and reducing administrative burden. This proposal was approved by the commission and will be forwarded to city finance and council for final approval. Additionally, the meeting covered plans for facility improvements, including technology upgrades funded partially by the Friends of the Center, and ongoing discussions about remodeling the senior center to improve workspace and security. The meeting also addressed volunteer capacity policies and grant application processes, but no direct contract awards or vendor selections were made during this session.
