INFRASTRUCTURE & SERVICES COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                   21 JULY 2015


5.       FUTURE DIRECTION

The review of the NAC gym operations is ongoing and will be the subject of a separate report to
Council.

A hydraulics audit is scheduled for Quarter 1 2015/16. The primary focus of this audit is to
determine the life expectancy of the ageing 50 meter pool filtration. It has been in use since the
centre’s opening in 1999 and is displaying signs of deterioration. The outcome of this audit will
determine the requirement for and urgency of any future works.

As reported previously, a section of wall tiles of the 25 metre pool have separated from the
concrete shell. This will require emptying of the 25 metre pool and retiling of the affected section.
The full extent of the damage will not be known until the pool is emptied and inspected. This
project has been rolled over from the 2014/15 capital works program after bad weather delayed
the contractor’s ability to commence the works until late July 2015.

A review of the payment structure for the Junior Squad program will be undertaken as the
existing ‘two payment’ system is disliked by customers and also negatively affects the retention
of participants between programs.
