Beach closings add pressure to Lake Worth Beach pool decision
Monday night at 6pm, City Commissioners will be discussing the penny sales tax and where to spend it. It's burning a hole in their pockets. One target is our pool as the city closed it in 2016 instead of repairing it. They emptied it and allowed it to deteriorate in the harsh Florida sun drying it out. They now tell us it is unsaveable. Well, of course. It hasn't had water in it for years!We have had these discussions before...it never ends.
Last year, CPZ presented commissioners with six conceptual design ideas that ranged from $14 million to $59 million and a six-lane pool to no pool to a private development hotel. The city is down to two schemes now for the pool. Scheme A will cost $9,090,632 with Scheme B costing $10,600.596.

I think DISGUSTING would have been a better word for your article instead of sad,which it also is.EVERY one of our Commissioners needs to be replaced and Bornstein fired over this issue.
Bornstein is up for another raise!
yes all this diaz needs replacing and I don't care who is running I am voting for new blood.cant get nothing done by voting the same idiots in.its a real crime how these people are taking care of this city.i have already talked to one person who wants to run and go for term limits and change voting date.to where citizens are here..
It would be nice if they could get the pool open again.
Demolition by neglect. I have a feeling Greg Rice is coaching the city how to do this.
What other city can do such a good job of screwing up a beachside pool AND a hotel on the intracoastal? Yes, time for new blood.
