Prop A: Aquatic Centers
-
Maintenance, repairs and renovations to the existing LISD Eastside and Westside Aquatic centers, which are home to our high school swim, dive and water polo teams. LISD Aquatic centers are also used by second grade classes for water safety instruction. These projects would address maintenance and repairs to existing facilities built by previous bond funds and do not include new construction of any facility.
These facilities are open to the community for lap swim, swimming lessons, birthday parties and club sports such as synchronized swimming, water polo, and youth swim clubs; and routinely host UIL competitions, and even national and international swim meets, serving as a source of revenue for the district and an economic driver for the community.
Without funds to address these projects, the LISD Board of Trustees would face alternative circumstances such as no longer allowing rentals at these facilities within the community, and potentially closing the facilities.
