Mount Carmel mayor: Landmark Aquatics to start pool work in March; open for homecoming tours planned
Summary
Landmark Aquatics has begun preparatory work at the Mount Carmel pool site and expects to begin excavation in March; the mayor said the goal is to have the new aquatic center operational for homecoming week, pending state approvals.
The mayor reported that Landmark Aquatics has begun preliminary site work at the Mount Carmel pool and is expected to return in March to begin excavation and placement of fill.
"They will... be back in the March to, start digging, putting more dirt out there," Speaker 1 said, and the administration plans an open house during homecoming week once the pool is operational for tours. The mayor said several state approvals remain outstanding but that the schedule is "coming in line."
City officials said some construction sequencing depends on approvals and availability of materials and contractors; the mayor noted some dirt is being sourced to the airport and that the target is to start construction in the first or second week of March. No formal vote was required for the update; officials said they will continue to report progress to the council and the public.
What’s next: staff will continue to monitor state approvals and report to the council; the mayor suggested an open-house target tied to homecoming events.
