Council sets 70°F minimum pool temperature, superintendent to decide openings
Summary
Bally Borough superintendent reported pool painting and recommended a 70°F minimum temperature for public opening; council voted to require at least 70°F or defer to the superintendent's discretion before opening the pool.
Superintendent Nathan Heffner reported that the entire pool, including the baby pool, had been painted and recommended that the pool water temperature be 70°F or higher before opening to the public.
Council voted (motion by Michael Moll) not to open the pool with a water temperature below 70°F, while also giving Nathan Heffner, who holds the water license, discretion to make the final decision. The minutes note the pool's first day opening was delayed on June 1 because of weather; staff will continue warm-weather maintenance and preparation. No schedule change beyond the temperature policy was recorded at the meeting.
The decision places technical control in the superintendent's hands while establishing a clear minimum threshold for public health and comfort.
