π¨ Some tough news regarding the 2026 outdoor pool season: We are unable to open Grant Beach and Westport Pools this summer due to structural damage.
ποΈ Grant Beach remains closed after the April 2025 storm lifted off the roof of the pool house. Construction begins this Tuesday on roof replacement and interior water damage, and continues for 90 days. The Park Board is committed to repairing Grant Beach for reopening in 2027.
π§ Westport was recently discovered to have a massive leak due to separation of a 50-year-old drainpipe from the pool shell. The leak lost 1,170 gallons of water an hour, which is about 1/3 the total volume of the pool in a day. This is complicated repair, and could not be completed in time for pool season. And we're not sure what additional damage may be found beneath the pool. A comprehensive outdoor pool assessment, currently underway for all locations, should tell us more.
