Project Goals
1. Provide community recreation experiences for a wide range of users.
2. Provide increased independent accessibility to all water experiences.
3. Provide shade in several areas of the deck and some in the water areas.
4. Provide design and operating efficiencies that support the City of Iowa City climate action goals.
5. Maximize efficiency of lifeguards.
6. Promote the vision "Every child learns how to swim."
7. Welcome users of all backgrounds with specific attention to facility entry patterns, shower /
changing and restroom design.
8. Evaluate the potential merging of the outdoor park restrooms and year-round recreation
programming space into the swimming pool facility.
9. Limit the construction area generally within the fence line/site plan of the current pool.

Conditions Review
Existing Conditions
• Increasing annual water loss e
• Deteriorated conditions found in pool basin
AV
• Concern for long term structural integrity of
pool walls
• Replacement of pool filtration, sanitation, and
piping systems needed
x
• Outdated bathhouse in terms of safety, security,
operational areas, and user amenities
Recommendation Y t r T T
• Williams Architects recommended complete
replacement of City Park Pool with a new
aquatic facility and bathhouse
• Repair of pool not recommended
o Repair project would essentially equate to
full replacement project due to poor existing
condition of pool walls, basin, and operating
systems
o Money spent on repairs would not replace all
site infrastructure, pool piping, or pool - —
equipment, leaving these items needing to _
be addressed through additional projects in S
next 5-10 years
• A new aquatic facility would give a "
community a chance to weigh in on how
project goals would be met and provide a
structure that would last long into future �_?

■ Four pool designs
■ Programs and activities
■ Demographics Ic-

■ No measurable effect on the response rate
from this issue
Survey Methods & Data Collection
• The survey was available in English, Spanish, French, Mandarin, and Arabic
■ Responses: Spanish (N=24), French (N=9), Mandarin (N=3), Arabic (N=4)
• The sample was stratified by race/ethnicity — people from diverse race/ethnic groups were
oversampled
• Stratification involved ensuring the random sample of 6,000 closely reflected the
race/ethnicity of Iowa City households
■ Research indicates people from Latino/Hispanic and Black/African American groups are
significantly less likely to complete mailed surveys
• Thus, it is important to over-sample residents who identify as members of diverse
racial/ethnic groups
Survey Questions PLEASE COMPLETE THE SURVEY BY MARCH
• Zip code and address (to ensure membership in CITY�PARK POOL

Additional Considerations
=s is
1. Include (2) additional 50-Meter lap lanes: "
• Revise from (6) to (8) 50-Meter lanes
• Adds $850,000, 75,097 gallons of water, and
expands fence line 14 feet to the East which may
impact trees and playground. Will require
additional lifeguards.
2. 25-Yard lane considerations:
• All options have a rope halfway in 50-Meter pool to
provide 25-Meter lanes _ y
• Enlarge deep hopper to (4) 25-Yard lanes
• $ine0,000, 2,379 gallons of water, fits within
fence
3. If cost saving are desired:
• Exchange current channel for play feature f- =
• Fewer lap lanes
