Construction is getting started on a new family fitness center in LeRoy. The $4.7 million Replex will feature indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a gym and indoor track.

Replex is being paid for by a half-percent increase in the sales tax, and state and local funds, but the city has also launched a campaign to raise 400-thousand dollars to cover ongoing operational costs.
Officials are breaking ground at 1 pm.m.today. The Replex is expected to open in a year.
