The Manitowoc Public School District won’t be using some of their school’s pools next year.
In a district plan memo, MPSD did an assessment of the pools at Riverview Elementary plus Washington and Wilson Middle School.
The structure of all the pools shows degradation, including exposed steel reinforcement, standing water, and loose concrete.
But one of the pools isn’t as bad as the other two.
The plan is not to fill the pools at Wilson and Washington before improvements are made, including repairing concrete and, in some cases, replacing pipes and fixing cracks on the inside of the pool wall.
Both projects will cost about $600,000 according to MPSD documents.
Riverview’s pool will be filled next school year, but it will still receive a pool heater from Washington Middle School because it still works.
This is part of the district’s plan to update facilities around the district.
