State fights unlicensed Cedar Rapids pool closure order
Iowa contests Custom Fitness bid to reopen a pool linked to a legionnaires case. Linn County accuses the gym of defying closure orders after inspections found violations in 2020. The company seeks a court declaration that replacing heaters and filters is not reconstruction and seeks damages. The state says the pool remains shut without a proper registration after IDPH revoked it. A separate Linn County suit seeks penalties and a Dec 17 trial is set.
