Fircrest built a beautiful new Community Center that attracts residents from surrounding communities. With lower fees for Fircrest residents, who are paying for it, it’s time for other expanding communities to step up and provide recreational facilities in their own communities. We need facilities for both indoor and outdoor activities, including meeting and gathering spaces. New facilities must be designed to safely serve residents of all ages. Community Centers can be a tremendous asset. Include residents in the planning.
How wonderful that University Place is doing this. I was truly saddened when UP gave up it’s Community Center on Grandview. However, it is quite dated now and we residents of 50+ years in UP deserve a new Community Center. Bravo University Place!!!
