Pool bathhouse renovation
The 1966 bathhouse at the pool — which drew 48,000 visitors last year — needs a full rebuild to meet state fixture and ADA requirements and fix rotted roof beams before the 2027 season. It'll cost about $1.77 million from fund balance, with a hoped-for $800,000 land sale on Jefferson expected to offset it.

The 70-plus-year-old nonprofit youth football and cheer program is losing its practice field at Kennedy and can't use middle or high schools. Two leaders asked the city for help, warning the program may end without a solution.
