Montopolis Pool gets federal funds
Friday, May 13, 2022 by Elizabeth Pagano
The plan to upgrade Montopolis Pool just got a $3.125 million boost from the National Park Service. The money comes from Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership funds and will go toward offsetting construction costs. The pool project has a $4 million construction budget funded through a 2018 bond. When completed, the pool will be renovated into a “community pool” and the city is currently conducting a survey to help determine its design.
