Platteville Aquatic Recreation Sub-Committee

As publicly announced in May 2024, the Platteville Family Aquatic Center experienced catastrophic damages that have left the current pool inoperable. 

The Parks, Forestry, and Recreation Committee has formed and Aquatic Recreation Sub-Committee to study the current Platteville Community desires in aquatic recreation, assess the current resources and limitations of the city and community partners, and present a report with recommendations on a concept-vision for future aquatic recreation to the Parks, Forestry and Recreation Committee for their consideration, by no later than February 17, 2025.

This sub-committee is composed of 8 voting members:
   2 representatives of the Parks, Forestry and Recreation Committee, 
   1 representative of the City Council,
   5 at-large representatives of the community

Advisory and support members may be appointed but will not be considered voting members in satisfying a quorum or voting on action items.

The sub-committee is charged with developing three distinct courses of action and making a recommendation to the Parks, Forestry and Recreation Committee on the future concept-vision of aquatic recreation.  These three courses of action should be focused on the following elements: Functions, Location, Cost to Build, Cost to Operate and Maintain, Revenues and Funding Sources, Time to Complete, and any other significant factors of consideration that may emerge.

It is anticipated that the final report and recommendation to the Parks, Forestry and Recreation Committee will be presented with a decision-matrix comparing the three, distinct options to the identified elements above.  This study may serve as the base document for forming a future request for proposals in engaging with a pool engineering firm to design.  The recommendation should include a general process with recommended next actions.

Meetings will take place at 6:00 p.m. in the Platteville Police Department Training Room at 165 N. Fourth Street, on the first and third Mondays of each month, unless otherwise noted.
