A freshwater pool docking system could soon be closer to reality at the Birchaven Cove.
A report coming to council Tuesday night recommends a $114,000 contract be awarded to install the system.
Last September a presentation to council highlighted a number of benefits to having a 50m freshwater pool.
They include a safe lake swimming/training area, outdoor swimming events, and potential programming like aqua fit and swimming lessons.
“By creating a “C” shape dock system, 2-4 swimming lanes would be available for use at one time and allow for other programming to be offered,” reads a staff report.
Officials say after the initial investment, ongoing operating costs would be low and not have a major impact on yearly costs.
