Pros
- The Community Center will cater to a larger segment of the population, including seniors.
- Library space will increase and the library will share meeting room space with the community service section of the center.
- There will be more exercise equipment and space for aerobic classes.
- Another 100 parking spaces will be added, making a total of 200 parking spaces available.
Cons
- The one-story building will sprawl. Planners are looking at two-story options but say there may not be enough money to develop.
- Residents requested a swimming pool but County planners say adding this service would be too expensive.
- There will be no daycare facilities. Parents who want to work out would have to find other options.
Where it Stands
