THE POLL: Does West Odessa need a new senior center?
>> Yes: 50 percent (1 votes).
>> No: 50 percent (1 votes).


YOUR COMMENTS:
>> oldodessan: "These folks on the westside have paid enough taxes in a lifetime to warrant a little return now. Build the building."
>> 2short4mylbs: I absolutely agree with you oldodessan. Let them have a good new Senior Citizen building. They have raised over the years nearly half of what Commissioner Graff stated it would take to fund it and there are others just waiting to donate if the court will finally approve and give the go ahead. I for one am tired of hearing about the future needs of baby boomers. These seniors NOW are in need and if and when the boomers come along expansion can be done just as it was done at the Southside and Northside Centers."
