# Senior Citizens Advisory Board, Nov. 4, 2026 Meeting

The City of Longmont Senior Citizens Advisory Board meeting (titled Nov. 4, 2026; meeting metadata dated Nov. 13, 2026) covered senior services, staffing, food security, transportation, and the city’s financial outlook. No contracts, bids, or vendor selections were considered, and no procurement-related vote was taken. City staff said the city faces an additional $500,000 in General Fund reductions and will begin zero-based budgeting in January. A senior-center expansion remains in the city’s plans, but staff said it is unlikely within five years and difficult within ten given revenue constraints and competing needs. Staff also cited just over $20 million in recent building-maintenance investment and described funding for a transit-center project, including $16 million from RTD, $4 million from DOLA, and urban-renewal revenue to support project debt.

Staff outlined a proposed waste-rate structure with a 40% composting subsidy and price incentives for smaller trash bins or less frequent collection; the described changes were not approved at this meeting. The board also discussed that its 2027 budget request was not funded, with current food-program funding available through year-end and a possible Friends group sponsorship under consideration. Other discussion included city job vacancies and senior employment opportunities, a possible senior-focused survey, and food insecurity; staff said recommendations on health and human-services funding were expected to return to council on Dec. 15. The board voted to move its meeting start time back to 10 a.m. beginning in December.
