The Mount Beauty Pool Upgrade is currently underway, with the goal of improving the sustainability, useability and attractiveness of the facility.
The value of the project is $310,380. Sport and Recreation Victoria is contributing $200,000, with Council providing the remaining $110,380.
The project includes:
* Installation of shade sails, pool covers and toddlers' water space
* Upgrade to non-slip pool tiles, epoxy pool paint and balance pipes
* Renew concourse, wet deck and scum gutters.
The aim of the project is to increase pool use, attract families with small children to visit the pool and provide safer access for all user groups.
The improvement also aim to reduce maintenance downtime and extend the pool life, maximising the time that the pool is available for use, as well as improving the long-term sustainability of the pool operation.
Stage 1 was completed in October 2017.
Council is aiming to complete Stage 2 in time for the opening of the 2018 pool season.
