Board says pool-resurfacing request must go through grant process, not a direct donation

Board of Trustees, Town of Westcliffe · July 21, 2026

Summary

A resurfacing request for Altitude Fitness’s pool was not approved at the July 21 meeting; Attorney Dan Findlay said statutory limits prohibit direct donations and the request should proceed through the Community Investment Grant application process.

Trustees considered a request to donate funds to resurface the swimming pool at Altitude Fitness but did not approve a direct donation after no representative from Altitude Fitness attended the meeting. Mr. Wilhelm recommended the request be submitted through the town’s Community Investment Grant application process.

Attorney Dan Findlay advised the board that, "as a statutory Town we are prohibited from making a donation, it does need to go through some type of grant program." The board took no immediate financial action on the request and directed that the grant application pathway be used if Altitude Fitness seeks town support.
