History

In August 1987, the Chamber of Commerce Blue Ribbon Committee identified a community center as a definite need in the community - one which would incorporate the needs of the cultural community, conventioneers, senior citizens, and youth groups. In January, 1988, the Montrose City Council adopted a resolution, appointing a steering advisory committee to gather data, assemble information, and make recommendations. On June 16, 1988, the Advisory Committee presented the City Council with a final report containing their recommendations and action plan for council consideration.
