Meeting OverviewWhy a new pool?Williams design planHOA finances – how to pay for the projectProject timetable

Pool Studies/Reports2005 PHN Architects Pool Study2006 Committee Report2010 PHN Architects Pool Study2011 Independent Aquatic Engineer Report2011 Systems Assessments -- made it clear

that our pool was at its “end of life” .Deck drainage and piping of entire pool area in

need of total replacement due to failure (broken and clogged).

Dye test revealed leaks in the pool wall, gutter and pit

2012 Renovation Application2011 Board engaged architect to explore

renovation versus replacement.

Application to state started at $460-560K plus contingency -- $650K tipping point.

IDPH additional requirements drove cost to $700K for renovation of main pool.

Why a New Pool?Renovation $700K+ to meet current codes.

Building a new main pool structure was projected to be $1.0M.

Renovation based on good sound concrete pool shell

Lifespan of renovation 20-30 years vs. new 40-50 years

Diving well not compliant with code and starting block depth shallow by current standards

New Pool Architect and Plan SelectionPool Subcommittee formed – Elaine Leighton, Tom

Malia, Doug Zwiener, Keith Gritzek, Lynn Douglas, Geoff Ommen and Seth Gering (pool manager).

Subcommittee interviewed 3 firms in summer 2013 (2 architects, 1 builder)– asked them to present their vision for the pool and a complete project proposal (budget estimate, plans , construction management through project completion)

Subcommittee selected Williams Architects based on their experience, project management abilities with in-house aquatic engineering, and creative vision for pool project.

Scope of Work RevisedOriginal $1.0M budget was to replace the L

shaped pool shell and deck, keeping the existing tot pool and mechanical equipment.

Existing mechanicals (filtration) would potentially work with new pool design but require additional components to meet code. New heaters required for main and tot pools. Better to replace all systems for efficiency and lower operational costs.

To repair tot pool deck requires new tot pool (and shed/mechanicals).

Fox Point Pool PrioritiesPool subcommittee met with Williams several

times to identify the top user priorities. Competitive swimming with 6 lanesDeep water area for recreation and

diving/water poloDiving boardLap lane available at all timesMaximum usable deck surface areaTot pool

Design OptionsSubcommittee and Williams met several times

to discuss design alternatives that would best suit our users.

Exact same “L” shaped layoutRectangle pool with deep water Modified rectangle pool with step-in areaTot pool vs spray padOptional features: drop/flume slides, high

diving board, separate spray pad

Pool Design ElementsMain rectangle pool Increases recreational deep water use Diving board easily removedBetter sight lines for staff and parentsEasier to clean and maintain

Step-in areaEasier access for older adults and parents with young

kidsAllows parents with younger and older children in pool

togetherFeature will appeal to adults away from more active play
