Demolition, renovation and addition to a fitness / recreation center in Seminole, Florida. Conceptual plans call for the addition of a fitness / recreation center; for the demolition of a fitness / recreation center; and for the renovation of a 49,000-square-foot fitness / recreation center.

City Council adopted the Recreation Master Plan in May 2024, including plans to demolish and replace the current Recreation Center facility. The total estimated project cost is $34,000,000, including $2,000,000 for design, $30,000,000 for construction and $2,000,000 for furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E). As of June 2025, it is estimated that the City can fund up to $32,352,000 with cash. The FY25 budget includes $2,352,000 for architectural design and engineering services. The remaining $30,000,000 is proposed to be scheduled in FY28, which would allow a two-year timeline for completion of the design process (from procurement through construction document completion and selection of a construction manager). Staff will apply for all eligible grant opportunities as a supplemental source of funding. Any new potential operating costs are currently unidentified but will be evaluated pursuant to the architectural design and engineering process, with the goal of optimizing space planning for maximum efficiency. This project is directly related to Strategic Plan Success Strategy 2.3: Plan and develop a new state of the art Recreational Complex.
