Summary

The Council authorized the Mayor to sign two contracts with Cox Pools to manage operations at the Hartselle Aquatic Center and to provide chemical services; city staff said the chemical contract will save money through bulk purchasing.

Engineer Director Ben Wood reviewed two contract proposals from Cox Pools: a management agreement to provide professional operation of the swimming pool, lazy river and splash pad, and a chemical‑service contract to supply pool chemicals.

Mr. Wood told the Council that the chemical contract is expected to save the city money because Cox Pools can purchase chemicals in bulk. Council Member Virginia Alexander moved to authorize the Mayor to sign the management agreement and Council Member Mike Swafford seconded; the motion carried by unanimous voice vote. Council then approved the chemical‑service agreement in a separate motion, also by unanimous voice vote.

The authorizations permit staff to finalize contracts; specific dollar amounts and contract terms were not read into the record at the meeting.
