2009 Improvements
Many improvements are being made to this center. By the end of 2009 a new insulated drop ceiling will replace the current ceiling and energy-efficient lighting fixtures will be installed. Depending on funding and budget Parks may install energy efficient plumbing fixtures and new flooring.
All improvements to the building will be finished by the end of 2009.
Construction efforts have finally paid off, and a new roof with two brand new HVAC units have been installed! The overall installation effort spanned approximately 8 weeks; however, planning and design required considerable effort, lasting nearly a year. The building was evaluated structurally, as well the current utilities.
Besides a new roof membrane incorporating a bright cap-sheet for reflective value, which helps to keep things cool in the summer and reduce demands on the ventalation system, the new HVAC units are free of CFC refrigerants and coolants. These specific items continue the desire for green construction, and will span many years of useful life.
During the evaluation of the building, it was recognized that the electrical service was at the highest level possible, with potential for additional systems drawing from the main panel.
Under the current budget, the structure has an eco-friendly roof, heating and ventilation and is set for any future remodeling efforts if funding becomes available.
