BACKGROUND
Background
Guilford County seeks to enter into an agreement with the City of Greensboro (GSO) to help with construction costs and enter into programmatic discussions regarding County services offered at the new Windsor Chavis Nocho Community Center (WCNCC) in Greensboro, NC.
In 2016, Greensboro residents approved a bond referendum for $2 million to launch an innovative design approach led by the Greensboro Parks and Recreation Department (GPR) and Greensboro Public Library (GPL) to create a unique, "one-stop" facility and destination that merges and offers residents convenient and equitable access to recreation, health/wellness, library, and other government supportive services. In 2018, a design firm was hired, and community-based input was used to shape a vision for lifelong learning and access to wellness, government, and other supportive services in a sustainable, interactive, and flexible destination that celebrates a natural learning environment responsive to the changing needs of the community. In 2020, key community stakeholders and over 4,000 residents were involved in the selection of programming and design concepts for the project. The impact for the area where the complex will be located is not only innovative for the City and County, but for the United States. The community hub concept of service delivery provides Greensboro the opportunity to truly be resident driven bringing together community services into a one touch access point. Funding covered by this agreement will be used to support the next phase of the project which includes design and construction of the new WCNCC site located at 1601 East Gate City Blvd, including indoor and outdoor facility space, as agreed to per design, scope, and structure as presented to the County.
