The Arena’s goal is to replace the aging ice plant to ensure the long-term reliability of the vital community asset while considering the impacts which the facility has on the environment. The ice plant currently in its 43 year of operation which has well exceed its recommended life span of 25 yrs and qualified contractor’s recommend replacement before it fails. While also meeting reliability, the Arena can continue to invest in equipment upgrades which have less impacts on the environment since the current refrigerant used in the ice plant has been proven to have harmful effects it has on the ozone layer when released. The Arena provides an import role within the community to provide a place to meet and interact.
