Shrewsbury committee recommends $30,000–$50,000 feasibility study for aging Aquatic Center
Summary
Parks & Recreation Director Chris Buck told the board the Aquatic Center Research Committee documented cracking pool lines and failing furniture and recommended a feasibility study estimated to cost $30,000–$50,000; no funding vote was recorded at the meeting.
Parks & Recreation Director Chris Buck told the Board of Aldermen on Oct. 14 that the Aquatic Center Research Committee compiled a list of problems with the city pool and recommended a feasibility study.
Buck said the committee identified cracked lines that are contributing to a large water bill and noted pool furniture beginning to fail. The committee recommends the city proceed with a feasibility study to assess repair, replacement or other long‑term options; Buck estimated the study would cost between $30,000 and $50,000.
The meeting record does not show a formal vote to fund the study or specify where study funds would come from; board members did not record a decision on funding during the session. If the board chooses to pursue the study, it would likely be brought forward through the budget or a future agenda item, but no next step was recorded in the transcript.
