Attachment A 14 Orange County Comprehensive Parks and Recreation Master Plan CHAPTER 3 - Parks and Recreation Inventory /Assessment/ Recreation Facility Efland Cheeks Community Center -117 Richmond Rd., Efland Size: Total Facility: 2,600 sq. ft. Multi- Purpose Room: 1,200 sq. ft. Game Room: 160 sq. ft. Kitchen: 100 sq. ft. Offices: 180 sq. ft. Computer Lab: 130 sq. ft. The Efland Cheeks Community Center was constructed and opened in 1992, before much of the park around it was completed. The Center housed a senior nutrition and activity site, community based grant offices as well as recreation programs and events for many years. Once the new Central Orange Senior Center was completed in Hillsborough, senior nutrition and programming was all centralized at that location. In 2013, renovations and reorganization occurred, which are providing the opportunity for revitalization of the center. Beginning in the fall of 2013, drop in use was scheduled at no cost for Orange County residents throughout the week. Computers are set up with internet access, games and activities are available for children, adults and seniors. Future Rogers Rd.

The center would be owned by Habitat and leased to Rogers Eubanks Neighborhood Association (RENA) for $1 per year. The property selected for the center is located on Purefoy Dr. and owned by Orange County. Chapel Hill and Carrboro are also involved as partners in the project. In 2013 a contractual agreement was reached which pro- vided for operation and use of the new center by RENA. Plans and construction drawings are currently under devel- opment for the center. The planned center includes classrooms, multi- purpose rooms, a library /computer room, a food bank, and full kitchen as well as office and storage space. Construction is expected to begin in 2014.
