Cook 2165 Chestnut Avenue Carlsbad, California 92008 Dear Mr. and Mrs. Cook: Thank you for your letter of July ti, 1973 relative to the swimming pool. At the last Council meeting I anpointed Councilmen Fraree and Lewis to confer with the School Board to work out the details of a Joint Pbwers Jcrree- ment. I personally am strongly In favor of an outside swimming pool for the City of Carlsbad. However, in no way cEtn I support a strimming pool complex at an estimated cost of $75rt,i)Qg. This would amount to a $9QO,O!If'l cost when bond costs and legal fees are included. Sornethinq less than half of that amount I feel would be reasonahle, and I have so stated puhliclv. Thank you for your interest in this matter. Sincerely, DAVID M. DUMFIE Mayor DMD:rc
