Jake Reardon McSoley, Director of Recreation and Wellness for the City of Fishers, calls this an “exciting day.”  The Board of Public Works & Safety voted Tuesday morning to enter into a build-operate-transfer (BOT) agreement with the Hagerman Group for construction of the new $61 million community center, to be located at 121st and Hoosier Road.  The facility is scheduled to open in October of 2025.

A BOT arrangement is a form of public-private partnership for construction of the center.

McSoley told the board members that with approval of this agreement, work could begin immediately on constructing the community center.  It is expected a ceremony will be scheduled soon to mark the start of construction.
