Gordon said the council had received inquiries for the use of the centre but no formal bookings had been made yet.
The need for a new community centre was prompted by earthquake-prone legislation. It was first signed off by council in 2015 but put out to a second round of public consultation in 2017 before council voted a second time to proceed.
The community centre will cost nearly $6 million.
