City says Landmark Pools lawsuit alleges unfinished water-park work; attorney handling case
Summary
The parks director notified the board that Landmark Pools (doing business as Landmark/Westport Pools) filed a lawsuit claiming incomplete or defective work on the city’s water-park project; the city attorney and interim city manager are handling the dispute and no resolution was reported.
The Director informed members that Landmark Pools (identified in the meeting as Westport Pools, doing business as Landmark) has filed a lawsuit against the city alleging unfinished or defective work related to the water-park project. The Director said the city attorney and the interim city manager are handling the matter and that the city is still assessing which items remain incomplete or require correction.
On the litigation, the Director said, “they haven't completed the work,” and that city staff performed a walk-through to identify outstanding items. The Director added that the dispute includes timing and payment issues, with claims of overages and warranty or repair work; those specifics are part of the ongoing legal process. He said he could provide updates as they become available.
The Director said he does not manage the legal response and deferred details to Scott, the interim city manager, and Neil, the city attorney, both of whom the Director said are overseeing the city’s response. No formal actions, settlements or payment decisions were recorded in the meeting; the matter remains in litigation.
The board received the update but took no formal vote or direction in public session on the lawsuit. The Director said he would share further information when cleared by the legal team.
