Exeter Airport cash could float new pool initiative
Posted: March 5th, 2010, 7:14am CST
Exeter City Council has announced that cash from the sale of Exeter Airport could be used to fund a much needed new swimming pool.
Devon County Council sold Exeter Airport to a private company in 2007 for over £60 million but little of the windfall has been reinvested in the city.
Members of the City Council's Scrutiny Community Committee will discuss the way forward for a pool on Tuesday 9 March 2010. Last year the City Council decided that it would not refurbish the ageing Pyramids Swimming Pool in Heavitree Road but instead look towards building a new pool elsewhere. A working group of councillors has been looking at a number of options.
