He explained that he has spoken to Jay Keany & Chuck Sisk. He stated that Memory Square Pool is a valuable part of downtown. He agreed that it was not in the best condition, however, it is something that other cities do not have. He thought that keeping the pool alive would contribute to the success of downtown. He stated that he supports the construction of a new facility but did not believe that Memory Square should close. He requested that Council continue to support Memory Square pool and do everything possible to keep Memory Square pool open. Davidson replied that there has been no decision to close Memory Square pool. He explained that, should Council decide to do so, it would involve public meetings and input from the citizens. Levihn suggested that a notice be sent to the newspapers to state that there has been no decision to close the pool, as many residents are under the impression that the pool will close.
