No Pool for Pasco

The final vote count isn’t in, but it seems impossible for the $5 million pool bond issue to pass based on the latest counts.

The bond has received 54% of the vote, but it needs a 60% supermajority to be approved. The auditor’s office says there are about 1,400 ballots still be to counted, so it would take a really unusual shift in voting trends to reach the 60% approval mark.

If it had passed, the bond money would’ve been used to build a new aquatic center in Pasco, and renovate Memorial Pool.
