CITY MANAGER REPORT Preliminary Report on Noble Park Swimming Pool Renovations was given by Parks Services Director Mark Thompson. The following information was provided in the City Commission Meeting Highlights by Public Information Officer Pam Spencer. "Engineering Contract for the Noble Park Pool Renovation Project Parks Services Director Mark Thompson provided the Commission with a preliminary report from Florence & Hutcheson, Inc. regarding the Noble Park Pool Renovation Project. The City has an agreement with F&H for professional engineering services associated with the project including a code review, an existing conditions assessment, a preliminary engineering report, design and permitting, bidding and procurement, and construction administration services. The preliminary report from F&H shows the pool needs a new liner system, gutter and piping systems, circulation, filtration, and disinfection systems, and new treatment buildings. F&H also recommends a new slide, diving boards, lifeguard chairs, and platforms in addition to accessibility and lighting upgrades. The cost estimate for these upgrades is $770,000. Thompson says, "From a mechanical standpoint, this would give you a safe and operational facility." Mayor Pro Tem Kaler says, "I think the swimming pool is such a great asset. I think it's important that we keep our core facilities safe and maintained." The Noble Park Pool has not received a significant renovation since 1992. Thompson says, "We're averaging major work on the swimming pool every twenty years, and we are at that point now." Thompson estimates the pool loses 36,000 gallons of water each day. Thompson asked the Commission for their guidance in upgrading the concession area and adding a spray pad area instead of the wading pool. The spray pad area would cost approximately $120,000. The Commission asked Thompson and F&H to gather the cost estimates for upgrading the concession area. The pool rehabilitation would start in August after the pool closes for the summer season. An average of 300- 400 visitors per day enjoys the Noble Park pool during the summer." MARCH 13, 2012 COMMISSIONER COMMENTS No comments were given by the commission. PUBLIC COMMENTS David Hutcheson voiced his concerns about the McCracken County School Board's offer of the current high school soccer fields to be used for soccer practice and tournaments.
