Construction On Lake View’s New Community Center Underway

Lake-View-Community-Center-Render

The Lake View Community Center project is well underway, with dirt work now in progress, and the committee behind its development has issued a community update. The project, set to become a city-owned non-profit facility, is scheduled to open its doors in 2024. The group has been diligently working on a comprehensive business plan that outlines operations for the first three years. This plan was reviewed by several entities, including the Iowa Small Business Development Corporation, Shelly Greving of Emerge Marketing Solutions, and Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. The plan includes marketing strategies for booking gatherings, corporate events, and community functions. It also allocates funding for start-up costs and staffing. Recent donations have empowered the committee to consider establishing an endowment fund for future needs, ensuring the long-term sustainability of the Lake View Community Center. Moreover, being a city-owned non-profit entity makes the center eligible for future grant funding.
