Hindmarsh Shire Council will delay its decision to sell the Dimboola Senior Citizens Centre building.
The council had announced its intent to sell the building, at a meeting in September, because attempts to gain interest to reinvigorate the group, to that point, had failed.
Acting chief executive Monica Revell, in a letter to people who made submissions to the proposal, said submissions and subsequent presentations to the council had paused initial plans.
She said the council would host a community meeting in February to discuss the future of the building with interested community members.
