Marinette County moves forward with River Cities Community Pool on a month-to-month basis…

The Marinette County Board discussed yesterday at their monthly meeting whether or not entering into a Memorandum of Understanding with River Cities Community Pool Association would be the best outcome for the county. Marinette County Administrator John Lefebvre says, “let me just remind you that we take ownership of the UW Field House on July 1^st.”

Lefebvre says, “this isn’t a long-term solution, this is the ability for them to continue on.”

After a lengthy discussion, the board ultimately came do a decision. They approved entering into a MOU with River Cities Community Pool Association to lease the fieldhouse on a month-to-month basis beginning July 1^st, with RCCPA being responsible for all costs associated with the operation of the facility, to include but not limited to, utilities, general maintenance of the building and equipment, with the county contributing $3,000 monthly towards the facilities utilities and the county being responsible for all required improvements which exceed $5,000.
