Council approves hearing for pool renovations

The City Park pool will be the subject of a hearing at the Dec. 3 Iowa City City Council meeting.

City officials hope to renovate the pool’s wading pool because it is not compliant with the 2010 Americans with Disabilities Act standards.

The 2010 standards mandate all municipal pools to be accessible. The existing wading pool does not comply with the standards because of raised edges.

The project would include the replacing the existing wading pool at City Park pool with a zero-edge pool, extending the perimeter fence, and establishing picnic areas within the pool fence.
