Currently, the City contractors are busy demolishing the recreation pool and deck. With these construction activities, the parking at the Community Center is limited. As soon as the demolition phase is completed, additional parking spaces will become available.
The Aquatics Project Team thanks the community for their patience while the improvements are underway. The anticipated reopening for the Center is in August.

Parker Pump Station Will Transition Back to Normal Construction Operations in Early March |
|
|
|
|
|
The damaging rainstorm in January severely impacted the Parker Pump Station, interrupting the sewer and storm drain service to the Country Club area. Since then, the City’s contractor has been assisting the City's Engineering Team in its recovery efforts.
A complete bypass of the storm water system was designed and installed to prepare for subsequent storms. The repairs on the storm water pump are on track to be completed in early March. This will allow the construction crews to then return to their normal construction operations on the Parker Pump Station Replacement project.
