Hood River Valley Parks and Recreation District Director Mark Hickox made a presentation to Hood River City Councilors about the district’s plans to seek a bond measure and operating levy this May to replace the aging Hood River Aquatic Center with a new pool, splash pad, and community center facility along with other projects.  Hickox presented a concept where the new pool would be located on the current Collins Field. City Councilors had numerous questions, most notably about public feedback and the shuffling of ownership of lands among agencies.  The bond measure Hickox outlined also could include development of a Westside Park and other smaller developments, enhancements to the Indian Creek Trail, plus a park shop and maintenance equipment.
