Poll: What do you think should happen to Wharenui pool?
Christchurch’s mobile library service will stay open for now and the city council plans to spend another $11 million on climate change initiatives, but the news is not so good for the much-loved Wharenui Pool.
The Christchurch City Council announced on Wednesday it is proposing to lease the pool to the Wharenui Swim Club, but wants to stop funding the facility once the metro sports facility opens in 2022.
The move has been slammed by swim club president Chris Averill, who said the council was walking away from its commitments to the local community and the children of Wharenui School.
