The Center is located at 211 Burnett Ave N, Renton, Washington 98057 and serves seniors, which is a presumed low- moderate income group. The Contingency Plan if there are any increases or decreases to Renton’s 2025 CDBG allocation is as follows: Planning/Administration to the maximum amount allowable; and then increases or decreases to funding, CDBG program income, and any recaptured funds to the Don Persson Renton Senior Activity Center Improvements Project.
