History of the Robert Livermore Community Center

The Robert Livermore Community Center was made possible by Measure L, a first-of-its-kind, three-agency bond measure passed with more than an 81 percent approval in March 1999.

Its $150 million is providing the community with $20 million toward this future community center, $20 million for a new City of Livermore Public Library on South Livermore Avenue and $110 million worth of school facility improvements over 20 years.

The Community Center, includes a senior center, teen center, two pools, a gymnasium, a ballroom and various meeting/activity rooms.

LARPD began planning this community center in the late 1990s; but the project was delayed by the failure of a bond measure to fund the community center, a Sunken Gardens senior center and Robertson Special Use Park improvements.
