The mayor of Prince Albert, Greg Dionne will bring forward a fundraising report at the next executive meeting on options to keep Marion Aquatics swimming pool in operation.
Based on previous contributions by the city, fluctuating subsidies from the sisters and if the city were to open the pool more to the public, the estimated cost for running it would be approximately $500,000, a number Dionne said the city could not support on its own. So, he’s reached out to nearby rural municipalities and local businesses and organizations.
“I had quite a few emails sent to my office saying they support the pool. So, I’ve written to all those people giving them the history of the pool and a donation request. So, I’m looking at all avenues. The government has no funding available and will not participate,” Dionne said.
A request from a Carlton Park family who wanted to lease a small piece of city park space to add to their backyard was decided by a single vote on Monday night. Council denied the ask 5-4, in part over concerns it would lead to deluge of similar requests.
The family wanted to rent the 2,789 sq. ft. parcel beside their property and fence it off to create a play area for their children. Currently, they felt the area was unsafe because of traffic on the nearby street. A rate proposed by the city’s department of planning would have seen them pay $500 annually for a five-year term. Any construction on the parcel – apart from a fence – would have been prohibited.
