The group reviewed the information pertaining to the six swimming pool
options previously submitted by the consultant. The goal of the Committee
is to determine which of the options should be developed for public
presentation and comment. Larry presented a rough drawing incorporating a
facility similar, yet larger than, design option #3. Larry said that the
drawing was presented for discussion purposes only to help facilitate the
Committee's need to define the options they wish to pursue. It was the
consensus of the group that renderings for public review should include: 1)
a configuration replicating the Ghormley Park pool (9,000 sq. ft.); 2) an
enclosed 50-meter pool with a second tank consisting of a 3,000 sq. ft.
leisure pool; 3) an outdoor American short course pool with six racing
lanes, diving tank and a second tank consisting of a 5,000 sq. ft. leisure
pool; 4) an indoor American short course pool with six racing lanes, diving
tank and a second tank consisting of a 5,000 sq. ft. leisure pool. Larry
has talked to several people who would be willing to provide their services
to draw up whatever renderings the group would like to present. Those
services may be volunteered, or perhaps a small stipend would be appropriate.
Joyce presented a draft questionnaire that could be used in conjunction with
the public presentation. She said that several questions were taken from
previous surveys. The group reviewed and made comments on the questionnaire
and will look at the revisions at the next meeting.
Jeanne suggested that there may be other means of presenting the options to
the public. She asked that each member think about sites in addition to the
Palouse Mall and be prepared to discuss at next week's meeting.
Cindy reminded everybody that next week's meeting will be at her residence,
714 Ridge Road, at the normal 5:00 p.m. time. There will be no "Question of
the Week" for the upcoming week.
Meeting adjourned.
