Calabasas : Panel Seeks Input on Community Center
The design committee for a planned regional gymnasium and community center to be built by Agoura Hills and Calabasas will hold a public forum Monday.
At the last meeting, the committee reviewed a preliminary draft of the facility’s interior and exterior dimensions. At this meeting, the committee will seek suggestions from the public.
The committee has indicated that the facility should include a gymnasium, community room, dance and aerobics room, activity room, weight room, an office and small kitchen, according to officials.
The facility would be open to people from throughout the region, probably on a fee basis, said Greg Johnson, Calabasas community development director.
The two cities are in the process of setting up a joint powers authority that would decide what fees would be charged.
The center will be built on a 3.7-acre plot near the Lost Hills sheriff’s station, on land formerly owned by the county. The site could accommodate a 26,000-square-foot building, which would cost about $3 million to build, officials say.
The two cities began working on the project in July 1993. Officials say they hope to complete the facility sometime next year.
The meeting begins at 7 p.m. at Lost Hills sheriff’s station, 27050 W. Agoura Road in Calabasas.
