WARNER ROBINS -- City officials will present to the public the recently completed Strategic Recreation Facility Improvement Plan at 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Wellston Center.

In January, the city agreed to pay Lawrenceville-based Lose & Associates up to $62,250 to develop the plan with the city's Recreation Department.

The plan calls for $82 million in upgrades, including the creation of more passive parks across the city. It also details improvements to be made over the next decade, including short-term, mid-term and long-term projects. About $31.9 million in renovations is proposed in the plan for 14 existing parks over a 24-month period.

The Wellston Center is located at 155 Maple St.
