Council approves switch to liquid chlorine and contract with ACCO for pool improvements
Summary
Melbourne approved contracting ACCO of Johnston for pool improvements and a plan to switch from chlorine pucks to liquid chlorine, which will require submitting a new state permit; equipment cost includes a $466.52 Stenner pump.
City staff told the council on July 13 that the pool's existing chlorinator is beyond repair. Public Works and ACCO of Johnston recommended switching from chlorine pucks to a liquid-chlorine system; the switch requires filing a new permit with the state pool-licensing authority. ACCO's contract covers the required work; the only equipment charge noted in the minutes is a $466.52 Stenner pump. Council approved the contract and the switchover, with a motion by Beth Opperman, seconded by Lucas Hauser; vote all ayes.
Council directed staff to implement the change before the pool is drained this fall and noted that the liquid-chlorine change will be part of the ACCO contract and the permit application. No additional equipment fees were recorded in the meeting minutes.
