Working for better play

Rec center

Recreation consultants hired by the city may have a bigger job than they applied for. Staff with Greenplay, LLC, of Broomfield and Barker Rinker Seacat Architecture of Denver will come to Steamboat Springs on Thursday to meet with city officials, city staff, local media and members of a community group advocating for expansion of recreation services. The meetings will begin a process of at least three months in which the groups will examine indoor recreation facilities and needs in Steamboat. Greenplay and Barker ultimately will prepare a report for the Steamboat Springs City Council, recommending how to best meet needs - such as a youth and teen center, indoor pool and running track - that many citizens have requested for years.
