Petition Tag - mirboo north swimming pool

1. Keep South Gippslands outdoor pools open and improving

South Gippsland Shire Council has recently released its draft strategy for managing its Aquatic Facilities ie swimming pools, for public comment.

The strategy proposes that significant funds will be spent improving the indoor facilities at SPLASH in Leongatha and that 2 of the 5 outdoor pools in the Shire will received preferential treatment.

It is proposed that the pools in Toora and Korumburra will have Master Plans developed and capital improvements will be funded by the council. Any improvements to the pools in Foster, Poowong and Mirboo North will need to have all the funds raised by the local community.

We question why the rates paid by the residents who wish to use these 3 pools is considered to be of lesser value to the Shire than rates paid by other members of the South Gippsland community.
