Cabarrus County is not responsible for <br />meeting all needs. Many of these facility needs will <br />be met by the three municipal parks and recreation <br />departments. Meeting the needs of all county residents <br />will require a collaborative effort. See Section Four <br />for specific recommendations on facility needs to be <br />met by Cabarrus County's Active Living and Parks <br />Department. <br />Volleyball at Frank Liske Park <br />Special Use Facility Needs <br />Senior Centers <br />Cabarrus County currently has two senior centers; <br />one in Concord and a smaller facility in Mount <br />Pleasant. These senior centers are meeting many <br />needs of Cabarrus County seniors and are well pro- <br />grammed by the county; however, input received in <br />stakeholder interviews, senior focus groups, and the <br />public workshops indicated there is a need for addi- <br />tional centers and improvements to existing facilities. <br />Senior Fitness Center <br />Recommendation found in this plan include <br />improvement and expansion to the Concord Senior <br />Center, development of a ±20,000 square foot facility <br />in the northwestern section of the county and several <br />smaller facilities ( ± 4,000 S.F.) in the eastern area of <br />the county. <br />Community Centers & Gymnasiums <br />Currently the County does not offer its citizens a <br />community center with gymnasium. Youth basket- <br />ball programs are conducted at the schools. The lack <br />of adequate indoor space greatly restricts the oppor- <br />tunity for fitness center, volleyball, free play, etc. <br />Based on the responses from both the survey and the <br />public workshops, there is some community support <br />for an indoor recreation center with gymnasium. <br />Unfortunately the cost of constructing and (more <br />importantly) operating an indoor recreation center is <br />extremely high. The County should explore options <br />Attachment number 2 \n <br />EX -5 <br />F -1 <br />Page 116 <br />
