Corte Madera council approves new senior space

Corte Madera is moving forward with an intergenerational center.

The Town Council voted unanimously to proceed with a five-year lease for a new center at 195 Tamal Vista Blvd. at a meeting Tuesday. The new center would cost an average of $337,198 per year, with most funding coming from the town’s sales tax fund.

“There’s just a desire for people to connect more and more,” Mayor Pat Ravasio said. “This is a place where a lady who is facing isolation at home can grab her knitting and go chat for a few hours over a cup of coffee.
