pool losses mount, officials unconcerned

What part of the pool fiasco is nonsense?- the $200,000 we are losing keeping the pool open from Sept-thru-June to indulge 6 Springs kids? or the overall $300,000+ in pool losses we are having this year at the pool? Or both? Are the numbers presented nonsense? If so, present numbers that you believe are NOT nonsense, IF you have any. Those who dont have any credible numbers to present perhaps should calm themselves down, and learn something. It is nonsensical, at least, to allow mostly non-residents and other special interests to use our pool for free, while we, the resident taxpayers, are losing $300,000 a year and footing the bill. There are liability issues when anybody uses our facilities. Without having ANY contracts delineating who is liable/ responsible for what, we are at risk. There ARE no known pool contracts. The pool is made unavailable to Springs residents for all-weekend meets that WE pay for, apparently DONT benefit from, and only add to our losses. That is nonsensical at best, and criminal at worst. Where does that rental income go? or are we providing those services FOR FREE again, at the taxpayers expense? We get NONE of the benefits, but ALL of the bills!? Sounds like the Country Club! THAT is nonsense, at best...at worst....
