Garden City weighs pool repair or water park expansion
City commissioners study a 2.2 million repair bill for the 80 year old Garden City pool amid plans to reduce size or add a water park. Attendance figures show 42 000 at the pool and 29 000 at a smaller facility with potential to reach 120 000 if a water park and Lee Richardson Zoo draw more visitors. Budget constraints push toward phased fixes, possible indoor options, or locating a new facility, with residents urged to voice preferences at a possible night meeting.
