public meeting 2: hugh smith / library branch study - jan. 9, 2014
DESCRIPTION
The Arlington Parks and Recreation Department and Arlington Public Library proposed to complete a programmatic assessment for replacing the Hugh Smith Recreation Center and possibly co-locating recreation programming with the services provided by the East Arlington Branch Library. The assessment project was approved by the Arlington City Council in June 2013. On January 9, the Dewberry consultant team provided updates relative to citizen and staff input, program alternatives and three development options including probable cost. These options include: ▫ Integration of the recreation and senior center at the same location / library expansion. ▫ Integration of the recreation and senior centers at an alternate location / library expansion. ▫ Integration of recreation and library services at a new location.
