Our pool meets that section of code, so opening it would be no problem. I was wondering what the city wanted us to do with a pool that is not able to be used financially. I realize that it could fall into a state of being a public nuisance for mosquito or smell problems. Barring we take care of that, the public nuisance ordinance does not have any other problems with the pool. If my reading on this is incorrect, I would appreciate specifics on the matter. Otherwise, my plan is to keep it clean and dry to avoid mosquitoes. My apologies regazding the July 17th deadline. I was hoping to use the 17th as the last day of work on those projects. I did not intend for an appointment to be made on that date and I would appreciate your understanding. However, I would be available Monday the 20th if you would like to meet with me and discuss the progress.
