Pool Building Garden Bed Renovation
From January to March 2026, PP&R will be performing landscaping renovations of the shrub beds at the entry of the pool building. Existing vegetation will be removed to make room for pollinator-friendly and native plants.
The newly planted garden beds will increase biodiversity and attract beneficial pollinators like hummingbirds and butterflies!

These improvements included the replacement of major mechanical systems; plumbing, pumps, motors, pipes, chemical controllers, sanitation systems, gutters, deck drains, and filters. Many ADA improvements were also made in 2016, including the repair of cross slope issues on the pool deck and installation of two new pool lifts with straps.
