This included events for residents, non-residents, businesses, and non-profits. The steady average of events over the past six months indicates a strong community interest in utilizing the space. However, the center, along with the town's pool, continues to operate at a deficit, prompting discussions about achieving revenue neutrality in the future.
Overall, the meeting highlighted the town's commitment to maintaining community standards through code enforcement while also fostering community engagement through the void center. As these initiatives develop, they aim to enhance the quality of life for residents in Hollywood Park.
