Need for new water heater boiler at the pool may trump all other repairs

Posted: Fri, Jul 21, 2017 8:24 AM

There are some improvements and repairs that could be made to the Decorah Swimming Pool that would be more visible and more popular with the public, but the need to replace the pool's aging water heater boiler probably will take priority over all other pool improvements.

Decorah Park-Rec Director Andy Nimrod says the project might have to be tackled yet this summer or certainly before next year's pool opening.

Other repairs or improvements discussed by the Park-Rec Board include new shade features at the pool, installing a new children's slide, repairing the diving boards, fixing the five roofs of the poolhouse and painting the building.

Park-Rec Board members took no action on the water heater boiler repair on Thursday night, but agree that it is a priority at the pool.
