A movie theater could be built on the lower floor of the Old Gym Recreation Center, an architect told the City Council.
"He went through the Old Gym and said it would be feasible to put a movie theater in the building where the water department has been located," said council member Richard Paxman.The theater could be leased to someone to run.
Paxman said the architect indicated there was plenty of room beneath the building to dig a floor so it would slope adequately for a theater.
Soundproofing would prevent the roller skating and basketball held upstairs from interfering with the movie sound.
"Could it be operated like the SCERA Theater in Orem?" asked Kelly Anderson. He said he understood SCERA operated through the city recreation program.
