A City Council committee voted 3-0 on Aug. 3 to forward plans to the full City Council for a new aquatic facility center at the Naval Training Center Park in Point Loma. Phase I of the project is expected to cost about $300,000. This phase includes authorization to hire architects Richard Bundy and David Thompson for professional services in terms of design development, construction documents and preparation of a general development plan. The facility is envisioned to include recreational and competitive swimming pools and a leisure pool with playground features for small children. The $300,000 price tag for Phase I will be taken from a city redevelopment agency fund, according to officials. The budget for all three phases of development and construction is expected to top out at just under $1.3 million. The City Council will hear the first phase plan this fall. Phase II will cost an estimated $709,452 and phase III costs are projected at $217,280, according to city documents. No date has been selected for the other two phases since the first phase has not yet been approved by the Council. Councilmembers Sherri Lightner, Lorie Zapf and David Alvarez sit on the Natural Resources & Culture Committee which voted to move the plan on.
