While the overall structure of the recreation center remains usable, the 35-year-old aquatics complex has reached the end of its life. The current complex routinely experiences significant leaks and mechanical failures, resulting in closures. The proposed renovation would enhance services for residents by:
Replacing and expanding the entire aquatics area, installing a new water slide, a warm-water pool for therapeutic aquatics, an indoor whirlpool, and a larger lap pool.
Additional space for individual workouts, fitness classes, older adult programming, preschool, after-school programming, and flexible community space.
The current facility will continue to require costly stop-gap repairs to address mechanical failures and leaks, resulting in significant water loss. The facility’s outdated design requires disruptive work, such as tearing up the pool deck, to reach mechanical equipment and repair leaks. Improved equipment and modern design would not only address current deficiencies but also improve the City’s ability to repair leaks and equipment in the future.
The aquatics facility leaks water and is not energy efficient. The renovation and replacement would address these concerns and improve the building envelope, including walls, windows, doors, foundation, and insulation, to increase energy efficiency.
