City of Austin Aquatics Assessment – What’s Happening with Austin Pools?

What’s Happening with Austin Pools?

The Austin Parks and Recreation Aquatics Division received valuable input from thousands of Austinites about aquatic facilities through surveys and public input meetings in August, 2013.
Now, the Department wants to hear from you again. Your input will help the City determine how to prioritize all of the requests Austinites have made regarding aquatic facilities – from programming to hours of operation, from types of facilities to features at those facilities. You are invited to the second round of public input meetings beginning November 19, 2013, at various sites throughout the City. Staff will also be taking your comments by phone at our 3-1-1 hotline and online at SpeakUpAustin.org.
