City Council’s Laura Morrison Reveals Likely Changes to Free Swim

Austin’s City Council Place 4, our very own regular swimmer shared this news:

Hello All –

I’ve been following the free swim discussion with interest, since I’ve seen it offer real benefit in many ways.  As I understand it, PARD will be proposing the following:

Morning –

currently 5-9am free swim, they clear out pool at 9 and charge.

proposed change – 5-8am free swim, will start charging at 8, but will not clear pool, so if already there will not be charged to stay (starting March 2011)

Evening – no changes to free swim

PARD is hoping to get this to the Parks & Rec Board soon, perhaps this month.
