Lodi's year-round indoor pool at Hutchins Street Square will be closed until further notice due to severe deterioration of the pool surface.
The pool was scheduled to close for two weeks for annual maintenance, reopening on Jan. 2. Once the pool was drained, staff working on cleaning the surface noticed the advanced deterioration of the fiberglass material (as shown in the photo below). In its current condition, the deteriorated fiberglass poses a potential hazard to pool users.
Pool contractors have advised the City that a short-term repair is not feasible. The City is soliciting estimates for the cost to replace the pool lining.
