The future of two Riverland public pools is now up for public comment.
The Loxton Waikerie Council have started concept planning for pools in both major towns, which are seen as vital by many within the community.
Like many pools in regional areas, both pools in Loxton and Waikerie date back to the 1960’s, with the sites in need of infrastructure upgrades to meet current compliance standards.
Prior help shape concept plans, council is now looking for input from both current pool users, as well as those who currently don’t use the pools.
Consultants, DesignInc and insideEDGE Sport and Leisure Planning will oversee the consultation process, with locals able to have their say now via councils dedicated online consultation platform.
Loxton Waikerie Mayor, Trevor Norton said “They were excited to take the next step in making these much-needed upgrades a reality and are eager to hear from the community to ensure we deliver pool facilities that truly meet everyone’s needs.”
