Why latest discussion on reopening Lake Worth Beach municipal pool resulted in another delay
"After years of discussions, workshops, public meetings and no swimming in Lake Worth Beach's long-shuttered municipal pool, the city commission decided on Tuesday to... wait some more.The five-person board is in agreement that the pool, located a stone's throw from the Atlantic Ocean at the city's beach complex, must reopen after being closed since 2016.
Mayor Betty Resch proposed shelving talks until a future commission workshop so that board members, along with an architectural consultant, can craft design elements – splash pads, tiki huts, public access, etc. – to be followed by potential developers.
Commissioner Robinson who has announced that he will not be running again, said, 'This is absolutely the wrong way to go. We are going to get less and it's going to cost us more...This is a scary night for me'."

Who is it you want to rebuild this pool for, the undocumented, or the senior citizens?
Is this just a trip down memory lane? Lynn, don't you have a pool in Lake Osborne?
@3:34...take a hike.
These clowns will do nothing productive.
These clowns seem to do everything destructive.
This is the worse city commission ever in LWB.
Simply the worse group of do nothing POS!
But what do we expect from people who support socialists?
We were here when Corey O'Gorman was paid to oversee the redevelopment of the pool and allowed the stripes to be painted in the wrong direction by the company doing the job. This was the obvious error- no wonder the deterioration has continued since then.
CM Bornstein was always against rehabbing what he called a "white elephant".
We look forward to our new City Manager working to fix the errors of past CM's and Commissions and making our Olympic size pool a place where children learn to swim and seniors can exercise safely.
