Movement toward building a new swimming pool in White Salmon in the parking lot across from Whitson Elementary School moved forward as City Councilors indicated they were on board with making changes to the streets to create a safe approach during school hours. Mayor David Poucher says the White Salmon-Bingen Police Department had already identified some of those changes, and while Councilors did not formally vote they did indicate their agreement. The committee working on replacement of the current pool will now take the concept to the White Salmon Valley School District board. Poucher says developing the financial piece to build the new pool to replace their aging facility is progressing.
