The Town of Century really does not need to spend millions to replace this old building, we have other places to use. Obviously whoever looks at the applications for such grants has no idea what is going on in said town. It is someone in a office a long way from here who looks at the application and has no idea about the state of the town or how politics work here. I would call this a joke but it is to sad to laugh at. Based on the history of our town leaders they will only give them more money to fulfill their own agendas which rarely benefit the people of this community. If they do go forward with replacing this building Century residents need to show up and every town meeting to voice their opinions on this and demand we build a new building that will truly benefit the community. No disrespect to the historic community where the building is currently located but I personally think we need to relocate it to a location on the main highway along with 2 or 3 acres of land so the community could use it for events and show some kind of progress to the residents and people passing through our town. Out of 3.25 million dollars I think they could find some property and still build a nice center for us. We have plenty of road front property not in use and in disrepair. Surely some of the owners would take a reasonable offer for something around here. Please pray for our city leaders to do the right thing with this blessing of funds. WOW!

Changing the plan after the money was granted might be of interest to the benefactor, don’t you think? They might be ok, and they might not. But go ahead, Century…you do you. Where’s that state inspector? If the grant was for two projects, wouldn’t it be prudent to apply the monies to those two projects?

It's just one more justification for revoking the charter. Voters in Century need to ask themselves; Does Escambia County Let their parks get into this condition?

Why not help with park maintenance? Park improvements? Pay some registration fees for kids that need it? You can be against a lot of things but being against your own towns youth programs and against helping them succeed? Get out of here.
