Asotin County Aquatic Center Update

There will be a County Planning Meeting at the Clarkston City Hall tonight, 12-2-08, 5:30 PM. Anyone interested in attending can do so, but there may not be any time to speak to any issues. One issue is whether the City of Clarkston will opt out of the 0.3 tax levy which would allow the Aquatic Center to stay fully open and continue to serve the needs of the entire valley, as was previously agreed upon and budgeted for until the City changed its mind and decided to opt in. The figures show that the Aquatic center is used by all age groups, from infants to the elderly, for recreation as well as health and therapy, and there are over 70,000 yearly swims! Its presence in our Valley is far reaching!
