They had already been looking at closing for a number of years now with so few people using it and the costs.
From the article:
Coun. Gian-Carlo Carra said when the city had a conversation with the community several years ago about the possibility of closing the Inglewood pool, “there was a lot of love expressed for the pool.”
“So we agreed that we would explore trying to find ways to bring the utilization up and bring the per-user subsidy in line with what we’re seeing throughout the rest of the city’s recreation assets,” he said. “And we haven’t been able to get there"
Carra said while the pool is a “beloved asset,” it’s also under-utilized and highly subsidized by the city.
