Twisp council hears update from Friends of the Pool; formal requests not yet ready
Summary
Mayor Smith said Friends of the Pool are optimistic about funding but have not yet organized to operate the pool; the council expects a fuller update at the next meeting and noted Wagner Fund dollars could be used if the pool reopens.
Mayor Smith told the council that Friends of the Pool are optimistic about securing funding for necessary improvements but have not yet organized to operate the facility. He said town staff are not ready to bring any agreements forward and that "it is still unclear whether they will be able to organize themselves into an organization that can operate the pool."
Mayor Smith added that there are "some Wagner Fund monies that will be used next year if the pool is in operation," and he said the council should expect critical information from FOP at the next meeting before making decisions about town involvement. The mayor cautioned that many logistical questions remain and that any commitment by the town will be a difficult decision.
