This project continues the annual implementation of the five-year fitness floor equipment purchase plan. The District’s goal is to trade-in fitness equipment before a significant increase in repairs occur and to remain competitive with other fitness providers by offering the latest in fitness technologies and amenities. As fitness equipment continues to age, it requires more repairs, putting it out-of-service longer due to the availability of replacement parts. New equipment also provides updated mechanical technology, modern features, and improved performance, resulting in reduced future maintenance costs and an enhanced member experience.
In the 2026 capital budget, staff propose funding the replacement of seven pieces of the functional strength equipment which consists of the HumanSport Strength Line and the Precor Dual Adjustable Pulley Stations. All the equipment was purchased in 2007 and past its useful life of 8 to 10 years. Repair costs and equipment downtime have increased due to the age of the equipment. Staff estimate saving $2,250 in annual maintenance costs after replacement.
