What’s Happening About the Kaiapoi Aquatic Centre?

As we all know, the Kaiapoi Aquatic Centre was badly damaged in the 22 February earthquake.  The September quake damgaed the pool and the surrounds and these had been fixed by December.  The photo shows the pool full of kids on the reopening day. The February quake did major damage to the roof.

It seems that the cost of repairing the roof will be met by insurance.

However, many had complained in the past about the inadequacy of the changing rooms.  The Council would like to redesign these and the entrance area and is seeking funding from an outside earthquake-recovery source to pay for this.

Let’s put the pool back, but make it better!
