KIRKLAND, Wash. – If you are a Kirkland community member 50 years of age or older and have an interest in advising the City on keeping Kirkland a safe and vibrant community for residents age 50+, then please consider applying to join the Senior Council.

The Kirkland Senior Council (KSC) was established in 2002 to act as an advisory group to the Kirkland City Council. The Kirkland Senior Council (KSC) meets monthly for two hours, and the monthly commitment is approximately 6-12 hours.  Meetings are held the second Tuesday of the month at 1:30 p.m. at the Peter Kirk Community Center, 352 Kirkland Avenue.  Members also meet through committees to identify the concerns of Kirkland’s adults aged 50 and over, to advocate for their needs, and to create programs that advance their well-being.

The KSC is currently recruiting new members that live, work, or serve seniors in the City of Kirkland through the end of October. Member terms are for three years.

Recruitment for new members is open now until October 31, 2023, and is open to adults that live, work, or serve seniors in Kirkland.

For more information, please visit www.kirklandwa.gov/seniorcouncil or contact Betsy Maxwell, 425-587-3362 or email Scouncil@kirklandwa.gov.
