Document Description
The project applicant, The Salvation Army, is seeking entitlement to develop the proposed project site as the Kroc Community Center, a multipurpose facility that would provide programs and services for children, adults, senior citizens, and families. Components of the proposed community center would include a 84,171-square-foot recreation and gymnasium center, an administration and education building, a chapel and auditorium, an aquatics center and pool plaza, four acres of playing fields, and outdoor recreation and amphitheater areas.
The project is proposed to be oriented towards Walnut Avenue with the following accesses: two on Walnut Avenue, one on Rose Avenue, and one emergency and special event access at the terminus of 19th Street. The proposed project would provide more than 1,100 on-site parking spaces in a two-level parking area and on a small surface lot. A portion of the proposed project site would continue to function as a dry detention basin for the Cities of Long Beach and Signal Hill.
