(KLZA)-- Mound City,Missouri Aldermen awarded a bid to scrub, wash, remove any mold or fungi and repaint the Mound City swimming pool in addition to sandblasting and removing and repairing the joint ceilings at a cost of $48,400 when they met March 19th.
The Ashton Kate Sandblasting & Painting company from Wamego, Kansas was awarded the bid.
Contractors bidding on the work informed City Clerk Annissa Brandon that it was too late for the sandblasting to be done, noting that sandblasting would need to be done in the Fall with painting completed in the Spring.
The Mound City News reports that due to the needed repairs, and only one person being interested in a lifeguard position, and no manager for the pool, Alderman determined it will not be safe to open the pool without staff and in its current condition.
