Hillcrest Centre will be closing in Battleford at the end of this month.
A letter to Battleford Town Council from the Pensioners and Senior Citizens Branch No. 126 Monday stated the building would be turned over to the Town March 31.
"This is due to the fact that the members are not able to take on any responsibilities as they are elderly," stated the letter.
Mayor Derek Mahon said the group met with the Town some time back expressing concern with managing, operation and maintenance on their facility. The mayor said the Town researched the documents, back to the time of Mayor Alex Dillabough, when the original agreement was signed.
The agreement, said Mahon, was that at such time that it couldn't be operated any more by the group, they would turn the assets over to the town.
Town Administrator Sheryl Ballendine said the Town's solicitor will be brought on board to deal with the land transfer.
"It's unfortunate they just don't have the membership anymore," she said.
Councillors did not have any comment on what the future of the building might be.
