The City of Evansville is turning to voters to find out if they’re willing to foot the bill for a new aquatic center and planned improvements at Westside Park.

City Administrator and Finance Director Ian Rigg says at 60 years-old the pool doesn’t have a lot of life left.

On November 3rd, Evansville voters will choose from three options; building a new aquatic center at Westside Park and a splash pad on the site of the current aquatic center, rebuilding the aquatic center at it’s current location and putting the splash pad at Westside Park, or do nothing.

Rigg says the referendum is not a vote on final design, just the concept of location and whether to spend the money. Final designs, which have a significant cost to create, will come in 2021 if the public approves a location and the spending.
