Since September 2018 the focus of the South Billings Aquatic and Recreation Master Plan has been to review the feasibility for a future indoor recreation center in the South Billings area.  The goal of the plan is to create a framework for a multi-generational facility that best reflects the needs of the community, best practices for programming a recreation center, site viability,  and budget.  This process took place over a nine month period culminating in May of 2019 with the selection of a preferred site and 2 program options.

Parks and Recreation, Planning and SBURA Board has been meeting and working with our consultant, A & E Architects utilizing information from focus groups, stakeholders, community engagement, statistically valid public survey and a steering committee collecting input from over 1,000 community members.  The report has been completed, and after a few introductory comments from staff, Dusty Eaton from A and E Architects will make a presentation on the findings of the study.
