In about five years, funding for the community pool will run out unless a new source to operate the facility can be determined.
After the 2028/2029 fiscal year, the agreement between the county and the City of Susanville will end, which means the community pool will have to make up the 80,000 dollar-a-year contribution to continue operations.
This has necessitated the search for sustainable funding options.
Tomorrow, at the HLVRA board meeting, staff will present three alternative solutions. These include extending the original Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) between the county and the City, adjusting contributions based on inflation, dissolving the JPA for the City to take complete control, or creating a special funding district.
Any discussion will result in a recommendation requiring approval from the City Council and County Supervisors before implementation.
The board meets on Tuesday, October 17th, at 3 p.m. in City Hall.
