The Woodburn Community Center project involves a comprehensive renovation and expansion of the existing facility, adding 16,000-18,000 square feet, bringing the total building size to approximately 31,000-33,000 square feet. This expansion aims to better serve the needs of the growing Woodburn area community by providing updated spaces and amenities. A draft floor plan and space program document are enclosed as Attachment “E”. Key features of the expanded facility include: • 3,400 Square Foot Dividable Event Space: Equipped with a fully functional commercial/ teaching kitchen to support instructional, catering and food service needs. This versatile space will accommodate a variety of multi-generational programs for youth, adults, and seniors, as well as cultural celebrations, large community events and meetings. • Fitness Facilities: The new fitness facilities will feature a variety of equipment and dedicated spaces for both individual cardio and weight workouts, in addition to group fitness programs. • Locker Rooms: New locker rooms will be designed to improve accessibility and accommodate the increased usage the expanded facility will experience. • Reception Area and Lobby: A redesigned reception area and lobby will improve accessibility and provide a more functional entryway for visitors. • Expanded Parking Lot: A larger parking lot will be constructed, featuring EV chargers, enhanced accessibility, and increased capacity to support the expanded facility’s diverse uses. • Aquatic Center Upgrades: The existing aquatic center will undergo significant upgrades, including structural repairs and equipment replacement. These improvements will extend the center’s lifespan for decades, ensure compliance with modern safety standards, enhance accessibility and enable it to support a wide range of aquatic programs and services. • Designed for Expansion: The facility will be designed with growth in mind, including the potential to incorporate a gymnasium as additional funding becomes available in the future.
