Summary

The Parks Board discussed a large public turnout at an aquatic center forum and preliminary survey results — roughly 158 responses so far — and staff said the survey will remain open while cost options (new pool vs. abatement/no new pool) are studied.

The Shrewsbury Park Board reviewed results from a public forum and a follow-up survey on the proposed aquatic center. Board members described a large public turnout and staff reported roughly 158 survey responses to date, with generally positive feedback.

Parks & Recreation Department staff said the survey will remain open for a few more weeks to gather additional community input. Board discussion focused on planning next steps for cost analysis and options, including the choice between building a new pool and pursuing a no-new-pool abatement option; no budget figures were provided during the meeting.

The board did not take a formal vote on the aquatic center during the meeting; staff will continue to collect survey responses and prepare cost estimates and options for future consideration.
