Monticello officials hear $800,000 pool renovation and $193,000 splash pad proposal
Summary
Burton Pools and Spa presented plans to expand the Monticello pool, add swim lanes and a splash pad; city staff said $800,000 is allotted, with the splash pad estimated at $193,000 plus a $20,000 engineering fee.
The Monticello City Council on Feb. 26 heard a presentation on renovating the city pool and adding a splash pad.
Jimmy Brown of Burton Pools and Spa outlined plans that would add roughly 100,000 gallons of capacity, install new gutters, incorporate swim lanes and replace the pool liner; Brown said the new liner’s life expectancy is 25–30 years. Ashley Rodermund and Vickie Norris told the council that the city has $800,000 allotted for repairs; they said the proposed splash pad is estimated to cost $193,000 with an additional $20,000 engineering fee.
Council members did not take a formal vote on the renovation plans at the meeting; the presentation was informational and provided initial cost and scope estimates for staff and council consideration. The presentation prompted questions about funding and next steps but no formal approval was recorded.
The council’s next procedural steps were not specified in the minutes; staff will carry forward the proposal for further review and potential budgeting or bidding if council directs it in a future meeting.
