Project Phases:

Our project work moves through a process that's divided into four phases: Defining, Planning, Execution and Completion. For detailed definitions of each project phase, go here

EXECUTION PHASE

Community Recreation Center – Restoration Project

Construction at the CRC continues to make progress, with several recent updates completed. As of February 13, 2026, tile installation in the Vending Area Lobby and new carpeting in the East Hallway, Room 115 and the connecting area from the main foyer to Room 115 are finished, bringing a refreshed, cohesive look and improved comfort to the facility. From February 10–13, the East Hallway was temporarily closed for carpeting work, and the front desk is currently operating from the Vending Area Lobby while the new desk is being built.
