Welcome to the Mountain Community Center
Vision
Our vision is to build facilities for year-round events and recreation, fostering youth athletics and community health and welfare in all seasons.
Key Benefits
Health in All Seasons
Safe running and walking space, out of the elements, for all of our community. Currently, no large indoor space exists for our citizens to walk and chat during the long and cold months of winter and spring.
Year-Round Athletics
Open up additional space for all athletics. Currently, all spring sports fight for what little indoor space our community has, mostly through the School District. The initial phase of the Mountain Community Center District will create an indoor field and track for our local athletes.
Ongoing Revenue
The Mountain Community Center District will create an ongoing revenue stream, generated in the form of a tourism tax, to help support and grow additional event and recreation spaces in the future.
No new or increased property taxes!
In order to make this vision a reality, it will take both public and private efforts.
In addition to private donations, the ongoing funds for the District will come from a new tourism and lodging tax, not in an increase in your local taxes. Tourists staying at hotels, motels, and short-term vacation rentals within the District boundaries will pay the tax on their stay. Those funds will then be passed on to the District to operate the Community Center and build future phases and projects. No locals pay the tax unless they lodge locally.
