GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — Members of the public can share their thoughts on future plans for Joannes Aquatic Center at a meeting next week.
The Green Bay Parks Department is planning a meeting for 6 p.m. Jan. 13 at East High School.
Parks leaders plan to discuss repairs that are needed and possible upgrades for the 28-year-old facility.
Needs include replacing the pool’s filters, new plaster in the pool basin, fixing a leak in the surge tank and replacing the wooden tower for the slides. Plans call for $1.5 million worth of maintenance work to be done in 2026.
The way the city approaches those needs depends on whether there is a desire to maintain the pool as is, or reimagine it with new features outlined in a $9.45 million master plan.
That plan includes possibilities for a lazy river, surf rider, mini golf and much more.
