Pool plan advances in local chamber drive
The Reporter notes a Chamber of Commerce effort to promote a mid-priced public swimming pool funded by a modest tax. The pool, supported by President Ed Steakles and committee chair Chuck Hughes, aims to beat other towns in offering recreation, with last year’s defeat not deterring new efforts. Officials hope voters approve within a couple of elections.
