Decatur May Close Swim Pool Next Summer

— Decatur Mayor Bill Montgomery told members of the City Council at its December meeting the city swimming pool will be closing unless someone can come up with a way for the city to pay for it.

The Council had discussed closing the pool last year after it lost more than $8,000 in 2008 but decided to keep it open one more year on a trial basis. The pool lost $9,463 during 2009.
