    Liz2021 asked over 3 years ago

    There are no plans to include a swimming pool as part of the Community Center North / Senior Center Project.  The 2020 Comprehensive Systemwide Parks, Recreation & Cultural Resources Master Plan does identify a swimming pool / aquatics center beyond 2025 and will be reevaluated in the next comprehensive systemwide master plan.

    There is no plan to provide transportation to and from Hilltop Needmore Town Park & Preserve or the Community Center North / Senior Center. The current Community Center offers a service into downtown Raleigh provide by GoTriangle, it does not provide a circulator service around town.

    This will be a new building.  The old golf clubhouse is located on the northside of Hilltop Needmore Road. The future Community Center North / Senior Center will be located at Hilltop Needmore Town Park & Preserve property to the south of Hilltop Needmore Road.  The Town is currently working with Wake County Public Schools on the site master plan.  Once the Site Master Plan is complete it will be shared with the public through this platform.

    Fuquay Ave asked over 3 years ago

    The Community Center at South Park was completed in 2007 and serves the area well.  It is located within a mile of downtown.  The Fuquay-Varina Arts Center, which opened in 2018, is also located in the downtown.  Since 2010, the latest Census figures, the town has almost doubled in population.  The new Community Center North / Senior Center will provide additional opportunities for all ages on the north side of town, assist with the growth, and demand for recreational programs
