Hoosick Town Pool Problems

January 24, 2014 By eastwickpress

About a dozen people took advantage of the opportunity to look at the Town pool from 10 am until noon on Saturday, January 18. Supervisor Mark Surdam, Councilman Dave Sutton and Recreation Director Tom Margiotta were on hand to answer questions. The pool liner has been removed and a sonar scan of the pool has revealed trouble spots. The lip of the pool is rising, and water is getting under it and weakening the outside of the pool below grade. There are visible breaks on the lip of the pool and pieces of bright blue tile that decorate the edge have come loose. The chemical room needs work, and the pool needs to be brought up to code. Surdam said, "The pool is a community asset, and we need to take care of it." Laberge is scheduled to make a presentation on what needs to be done at a Special Town Board meeting at 6:30 pm in the Armory on Thursday, January 23. (Bea Peterson photo)
