City to take over Big Pool operations in 2017
Garden City plans to shift Big Pool management from the Garden City Recreation Commission to the City. Aaron Stewart, new GCRC superintendent, told the board the change would require a Sept. 6 City Commission vote before taking effect. Longtime repairs and high water usage prompted city to assume pool operations and fund remaining 2016 costs.
