What's missing? Why the P of course and let's keep it that way (old joke if you have ever owned a pool). Apparently the City fathers/mothers want to insure it is a problem they don't want to have to deal with...Jerry acknowledged he has been approached by developer/builder John Gray with an offer to build and donate to the City a swimming pool, ostensibly somewhere in West Ridge. Hmmm. Ace reports the BOA were unanimous in saying "No".

Loose talk of having a pool in the City has popped up now and then over the years (not at BOA but at backyard beer busts). We may have one of the more pristine lakes when it comes to MO lakes, but have you taken a gander at the water in the coves lately? Yuck. I suppose the mild winter, warm spring have propagated all the green slime...you have to admit it is nasty.

Thank God the BOA did it right. The last thing this city needs is the expense and maintenance of a pool. There's been so much trouble in the past with the community center; can you imagine what a nightmare and liability a pool would be?
We are new, what trouble has the community center been? We think its a nice meeting place.
Past problems with community center:
Profitability
Unjustified/ justified management complaints
Upkeep of an old building
Let's build the new pool at our bean field! While we're swimming we can look across the street at another BOONDOGGLE, our expensive monument!
