NORTH PORT — Even before the Morgan Family Community Center opened in 2011, it was plagued with flooring problems.

Prior to the facility opening in June of that year, numerous spider cracks and several pencil-thick gaps remained in the flooring in the 33,000-square-foot building, designed to serve as a teen and family center with fitness equipment, a game room, meeting rooms, a large gymnasium, a dance studio, arts and crafts room and lounge area.
