How is the Henderson County Sports Park being funded?
Funded significantly through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), this $10 million facility expansion will offer new athletic amenities to local sports organizations. An additional $1.3 million is allocated for site enhancements such as upgraded turf and expanded amenities.
What is WithersRavenel’s role in the Henderson County Park Expansion project?
WithersRavenel is providing civil engineering, surveying, and construction administration services on a fast timeline to use ARPA funding. The early due diligence phase led to the development of a concept plan. The preliminary site plan phase included early project designs and initial plans for landscaping, stormwater control, parking, and streetlights. The next phase focused on permitting, final site plans, construction drawings, and zoning compliance.
WithersRavenel worked with Henderson County on bidding and funding administration for ARPA money. This funding is financing the sports complex. Our team is also assisting with construction administration and observation services throughout the implementation process. Tennoca Construction Company is the contractor.
When will the Henderson County Sports Complex expansion be complete?
Construction began in March 2025 and is expected to be completed by September 2026.
