Belle Haven Community Campus operating budget approval at Dec. 5 City Council meeting

On Tuesday, Dec. 5, City Council will review and potentially approve a budget for opening and operating Belle Haven Community Campus, the new multi-service public facility under construction at 100 Terminal Ave in Menlo Park’s Belle Haven neighborhood.

Currently on track for completion in 2024, the Belle Haven Community Campus (BHCC) will feature 37,000 square feet of floor space on two levels, and will be the new home to five major community-serving programs: Belle Haven Library, Belle Haven Pool, Belle Haven Youth Center, Menlo Park Senior Center, and Onetta Harris Community Center.

The BHCC is an all-electric, zero combustion, net zero energy project with onsite renewable energy generation, battery microgrid, and electric vehicle charging stations, and its structural design is resilient to serve as an emergency shelter. When completed, the new facility will be owned and operated by City of Menlo Park.

Prior to City Council selecting the name Belle Haven Community Campus on Nov. 14, the project was referred to by the temporary working title Menlo Park Community Campus (MPCC) or the earlier working title Belle Haven Community Center and Library (BHCCL).

It is important to hear what the community thinks and values. Public comments are welcome at City Council meetings.
