Marion aquatic center plans move forward in bond vote
Marion pursues a 39 million project to replace the Willowood Park pool with a multimillion-dollar aquatic center on 24 acres near Highway 100 and 31st Street. A November 4 bond referendum will decide funding, with the current pool remaining open until the new facility opens if the bond passes. The plan includes Willowood redevelopment into a city park and potential pickleball courts, while city officials seek public input in coming months.
