Lookout Pool: 2025 Renovation
February 2024
In February of 2024, Trails Park and Recreation District announced the closure of Lookout Pool. An audit conducted in the fall of 2023 underscored the pressing need for renovations to address the aging infrastructure adequately; addressing those needs would also require updating the entire facility to bring it up to current ADA standards and municipal codes, since it would no longer be grandfathered in. Recognizing the considerable investment required to do so, Trails Park and Recreation District made the decision to suspend operations for the season while it did a thorough evaluation of the pool’s condition and potential future directions.
