Butler County’s senior centers will have decreased operating hours starting soon.

The county commissioners on Wednesday voted to renew its contract with PCN Senior Center Management to run the county’s senior centers.

The contract runs from July 1 to June 30, 2016, and the total amount would be $305,524. This is nearly $94,000 less than the current contract, and no county money is involved.

Under the new contract, the Butler and Cranberry Township centers would remain open five days a week; the Chicora, Evans City, Mars and Slippery Rock centers would be open three days a week instead of five; and the Mount Chestnut and Winfield Township centers would stay open two days a week.

The county only will provide meals at the West Sunbury and Zelienople senior centers. West Sunbury will be managed by West Sunbury Presbyterian Church. The county is in talks to have Passavant Community Senior Living Community operate the Zelienople center.

Commissioners Bill McCarrier and Dale Pinkerton voted in favor of the contract, but Commissioner Jim Eckstein, who has spoken out against limiting center hours, voted against it.
