Pool mold remediation project from Town Hall

From Town Hall:

Yesterday our staff met with the contractors who will be performing the roof, interior and exterior construction projects at the Pool. Also, in attendance were the consultants Lloyd Hamilton and Frank Gilroy. The purpose of the meeting was to coordinate the activities of the contractors to ensure that the project moves as efficiently as possible and does not compromise the effort to eliminate the mold and mildew, and to determine the most expedient way to get the work done.

There was no exact timeline determined at this meeting, since the roof work is a critical path for completion and is weather-dependent (as is the bubble installation, which is tentatively scheduled for mid October). However, we anticipate that it will be four to six weeks before the pool is operational for the winter season. The pool will continue to be open during most of this project, and should only be closed for the normal one to two week timeframe when the bubble installation prevents pool use. Sheila Adams and Bob Ceccolini are working with the swim teams (Cheshire High School and the YMCA) to accommodate them as best we can. Swim practices and meets will continue to be held outdoors (weather permitting) as will public use of the facility. We will distribute this information to the public through our website, Channel 14 and press releases.

We will continue to have weekly job meetings with all involved to closely monitor the progress being made.
