Amherst makes progress on pool project at Maude Xeiding Park
Amherst moves toward construction of a municipal pool at Maude Xeiding Park with ground breaking set this afternoon. City Solicitor Martinek ruled the plan eligible for no referendum due to emergency provisions while the plan had approval from council by a 32 vote despite calls for a vote. The pool proposal, backed by a small minority, faces ongoing debate as funds were raised by a half-mill levy to cover restrooms, park lighting, and access road construction.
