The project included rebuilding the men's and women's locker rooms to have privacy stalls to allow members a space to change clothes behind closed doors.
YMCA members say they're happy with the changes.
"Oh, I feel great, I feel like the Y really focuses on inclusivity for everyone and I feel like they also want to respect everyone as well, so I feel like they've made changes that allow everyone to come to the Y no matter why you're coming or what your beliefs are, they allow you to come and feel comfortable," said YMCA member Reanna Cook.
While the new locker rooms are done, construction is still underway on adding outdoor shower and changing stalls. Representatives at the Cameron Family YMCA said the controversy didn’t resonate with members and only 18 members canceled their membership due to the situation.
