Council approves $100,000 bond for pool improvements and adopts membership fee changes as pool season nears
Summary
The council approved a $100,000 bond ordinance to fund pool facility improvements and adopted ordinances increasing pool membership and nonresident slots; township staff reported strong 2026 pool financials, sponsorships topping $51,000 and nonresident memberships sold out.
The council adopted bond ordinance 2026‑18 authorizing $100,000 for municipal pool improvements and authorizing issuance of up to $80,000 in bonds or notes; the measure passed by roll call, 5–0. In the same meeting, the council adopted related fee ordinances updating community pool membership categories and increasing the number of nonresident memberships (ordinances 2026‑21 and 2026‑22), also by unanimous roll calls.
At the start of the meeting the township manager reported a positive financial picture for the pool: “the 2026 pool financials remain strong,” he said, noting that family and total memberships are ahead of this time in 2025, nonresident memberships had sold out and sponsorships “has exceeded $51,000 at this point.” He added that 25 additional referred memberships have been claimed, and that upon adoption of the ordinance payment would be collected from those additional members.
Council members noted that opening day and season programming are imminent; the mayor and several members praised staff and volunteers for their work and encouraged public attendance for opening-day activities.
Next steps: the clerk will post the adopted ordinances and legal notices to the township website; implementation of facility work will follow design and procurement timelines in the capital program.
