The council of Prince George, B.C. has voted to demolish the Four Seasons Leisure Pool, which has been closed since last March.
As reported by princegeorgematters.com[1], the demolition of the pool will leave the city with only one aquatic facility until a new planned pool in the downtown opens in the fall of 2022.
According to city staff, the municipality will save $150,000 to $200,000 by shutting down the pool.
According to acting civic operations Blake McIntosh, as a result of having only one pool, the city will likely have limited aquatics programming over the next year-and-a-half.
According to the report, the pool was usually used for swimming lessons, but these programs have not occurred since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
City staff will come back with the expected cost and timeline of the pool demolition.
