Ardara has taken a major step towards getting its own public swimming pool.
A planning application is ready to be submitted to have the pool built at the local Dolmen Centre.
The Dolmen Centre’s Design Team, lead by Quilligan Architects have come up with a design that is modern, bright, spacious and welcoming.
The 1330 m2 construction will see the demolition of the current Men’s Shed & Store to facilitate the design. The building will incorporate a 25m x 10m main Pool, a Kiddies Pool, Sauna, Steam Room, Jacuzzi, Gym and associated changing areas and Plant Rooms.
The centrepiece of the building will be a two storey slide which will terminate adjacent to the kiddies pool.
The pool is functional in its design and will cater for the many groups who already come to the area, and act as an attraction for prospective visitors.
The formal process for this application will begin next week and is expected to take three months.
If successful, the committee will begin to pursue all funding avenues, all financing options and any complementary projects that will bring this €3.5M development (at today’s construction prices) to fruition.
