Dirt flies on $3.47 million Lake Worth city facility

(Lake Worth) - Lake Worth officials broke ground on the city’s new multipurpose complex and animal services facility at 7005 Charbonneau Dr. — the new home of the Lake Worth Public Library and the Lake Worth Senior Center. The 14,500-sf center will include facilities to accommodate community or municipal events and will be available for public use.

The $3.47 million facilities, which are estimated to take 270 days to complete, are being funded by a bond issue approved in September 2008.

The center will double the size of the city’s library and the senior center as well as add a new animal services facility, located at 7209 Comanche Tr., which will be constructed two blocks from the multipurpose center.
