Pool Committee

The Region of Queens Pool Committee is an advisory committee established by Council to provide informed, non-partisan recommendations on the planning, design, location, programs, and long-term operation of a new aquatic facility for Queens County. The Committee reviews current and future aquatic needs, consults with stakeholders and the public, and applies a community-focused lens to accessibility, functionality, safety, and sustainability. Working collaboratively with municipal staff and project professionals, the Committee supports Council and the Chief Administrative Officer by offering research-based advice to ensure the new pool reflects efficient design, multiple uses, and inclusive access for residents and visitors, while prioritizing the overall well-being of the community throughout the project lifecycle. Committee members shall serve for the duration of the Committee’s mandate, with terms expiring upon its conclusion.
