Advisory committee recommends study on Rutgersville indoor recreation facility
Summary
Rutgersville advisory committee is asking the Board to fund a study for an indoor recreation facility and to coordinate that work with Parks & Recreation to identify locations and combine planning tasks to save cost.
Commissioners reported back from the Rutgersville advisory committee and recommended asking the Board of Supervisors to fund a study evaluating an indoor recreation facility on potential county property. The proposed study would look at indoor recreation needs (basketball, volleyball, pickleball, senior walking space) and identify candidate sites; staff suggested coordinating with Parks & Recreation and combining this with a broader master‑plan study to reduce overall cost.
Commissioners characterized indoor recreation as a high community need given limited indoor public space in the county. Staff said combining the Rutgersville study with other planning efforts could be more cost‑effective than separate plans.
