Grandview approves contract for activity-pool repairs after staff flags major leak
Summary
The Grandview Board of Aldermen on a unanimous roll call approved Bill 7885—now Ordinance 7622—authorizing a contract with Pleva Mechanical to repair a significant leak in the city’s activity pool; staff said the work will replace a 110-foot feed pipe and could take two to three weeks.
The Grandview City Board of Aldermen voted to adopt Bill 7885, authorizing a contract with Pleva Mechanical to repair a leak in the city’s activity pool; the ordinance was recorded as No. 7622.
City staff described a sizable leak in the pool’s circulation system and a planned repair scope. “We found a pretty significant leak in the bottom of that,” said Jared, a city staff member responsible for facilities, describing “about a 30 foot stretch” of damage. He said staff recommended replacing the entire 110-foot section of pipe feeding the circulation system so the problem would not recur.
Why it matters: the activity pool is a public amenity used for classes and recreation; staff warned the repair will be disruptive while crews cut concrete and bring in equipment, though they said the lap pool may re-open if work progresses quickly. Jared estimated the repair timeline at “two to three weeks,” caveating that material delivery and rented equipment could affect the schedule.
The council moved the bill through first and second readings, discussed the repair plan, and approved final passage by roll-call votes. The roll-call record as read into the minutes shows aldermen voting to approve the ordinance; the clerk announced the enactment as Ordinance No. 7622.
What council discussed: aldermen asked about the scope, duration and public access during repairs; staff said they’d monitor progress and might reopen the lap pool if work allows. No cost figure for the contract was stated in the discussion.
Next steps: the contract will move forward under the authority granted by Ordinance 7622; staff will manage scheduling and public notifications if portions of the pool need to close during repairs.
