Director Black and the Ashland Parks and Recreation Commissioners have determined that the project of rebuilding the Daniel Meyer Pool must be delayed, and so they have not allocated funds for it in the 2021-2023 biennium budget. APRC simply cannot take on the added construction and maintenance costs of such a project at this time; however, there are funds available for maintenance and repairs of the old pool.
Director Black and the Commissioners remain fully convinced that Ashland needs a better pool that serves all citizens – a multi-generational, multi-functional pool, and the design by Robertson-Sherwood, pool designers, reflects that.
