Due to a delay in the installation of commercial-grade water softeners at the community pool, the Lake City Aquatic Center will be unable to open for Memorial Day weekend. According to Administrator, Eric Wood, the council approved the addition of the industrial softeners as part of an effort to extend the life of the facility’s equipment, but the project is running behind a few days because of some unforeseen setbacks. While not an ideal situation, Wood says the pool will open to patrons with regular summer hours by Saturday, June 1. Swim lessons and swim team practices scheduled for next week will proceed as scheduled. Questions about the pool should be directed to city hall at 712-464-3111.
