CALGARY City councillors voted in favour Monday of providing $400,000 in one-time funding for maintenance at two pools in Calgary. The Beltline Pools and Inglewood Aquatic Centre will receive $200,000 each. Ongoing since 2019 when the topic of closing the pools was first raised Monday s debate centered on how effective maintaining the two facilities would be in the long term. Four major concerns were addressed: The efficiency of the buildings; Their age; Can they still generate a profit. Councillors were told usage of the two pools is significantly less than the other facilities with comparable amenities. Both are more than 50 years old and in 2019 they were scheduled to be closed due to rising maintenance costs.
