RANDOLPH — Half a dozen people gathered to hear about the proposed Randolph Veterans Memorial Park Aquatic Center with a price tag of $1.1 million on April 20 in the City Auditorium.
City administrator Ben Benton led the meeting with help from JEO’s Terry Meier, community development funding expert; Viv Novotny, client development manager; and Dave Henkel, senior project manager.
Benton said the project idea began last summer.
The first pool was built in Randolph in 1925 and was 100 ft. x 50 ft. and cost $4,500 to build.
A $39,000 bond issue was approved in 1969 for a park and pool project. The current pool was finished in 1970.
The entire existing pool is not Americans with Disabilities Act accessible.
“Nearly every city around us has updated their pools,’’ Benton said. “Community members leave Randolph to use other pools.’’
The proposed pool would be zero- depth entry with water features such as an aqua climbing wall, a slide, renovated pool house, heated water, a kiddie aqua slide, new pumps and surge tanks, according to Benton.
Henkel said the climbing wall would be a minimum of five feet tall.
“Ponca has a Kersplash pool climbing wall like the one proposed for Randolph,’’ Benton said.
He said the city is proposing to begin on the zero entry funding attempt in April 2021 with years two and three for the waterslide and climbwall.
Benton said the city will fund the pool house cost. The City of Randolph has contributed $8,000 to kick start the fundraising for the project.
Donations can be made to the Randolph Area Foundation. Several matching grants will be pursued for certain phases of the project.
“The price tag on the project will increase with time,’’ Benton said. “The current pool house is dated, but the structure is sound. Public school elementary class sizes are on the rise.’’
