Communities contemplating or starting on a public swimming pool project face a wide range of questions. This white paper from the IAKS Pool Expert Circle offers advice for successful decision making.
Highly complex project – and often unknown territory
Public swimming pool facilities are a cornerstone of local community infrastructure. They provide affordable opportunities to learn life skills, exercise and socialise, all of which contribute to supporting healthy communities. At the same time, they are deceptively challenging to build and operate. Often those responsible for delivering these projects, such as municipal staff and decision-makers, are facing the challenge of a new-build or renovated pool project for the first time in their careers. As pool facilities are highly specialised and complicated projects, it is important to have the right experience and expertise available from the very beginning.
The white paper was presented as part of the ISWF (International Swimming Pool and Wellness Forum) at this year's aquanale. It is available as free download in German, English and French.
