Hi Brant, 

 

Feel free to adjust (not sure if Instagram replies has max character limit?), but here is our response:

 

~~~

We received your service request regarding the Teen Center and how relocating teen services could impact families and teens, and wanted to follow up. The decision to relocate teen services programming from the Old Firehouse Teen Center (OFH) was made proactively due to the building's age (73 years) and substantial long-term challenges beyond routine maintenance. While the building remains safe for occupancy thanks to our maintenance protocols, this move allows us to ensure ongoing safety without requiring increasingly demanding resources.

No decisions have been made about the future of the building. That will be determined through a public process with City Council which will include opportunities for public comment this spring.

We are launching a comprehensive engagement process to understand what teens need, how we can best serve their interests, and where services are most needed at the end of March. You can find more information regarding the relocation of services to the Redmond Community Center at Marymoor Village (in addition to other city facilities) at www.redmond.gov/TeenServices <http://www.redmond.gov/TeenServices>  with an online questionnaire that will be available on March 31.

Our commitment remains providing quality, accessible programs that support teen development, create meaningful connections, and respond to the evolving needs of Redmond's youth.

Hi Zach and Brittany, 

 

We were tagged on Instagram in two stories about the teen center and received one message. I don’t think we need to respond to the story-tags, but we should reply to the direct message. 

 

Thanks,

Brant

Hey Brant,

 

We have some IG stories we were tagged in and a message about the teen center. The tagged posts may be more of an FYI, but for the message, wondering if we should send a response?
