The West Virginia Department of Economic Development received a $499,994 Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Outdoor Recreation Acquisition, Development and Planning grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service. The Department will sub-grant these funds to the City of Charles Town to renovate the Jefferson Memorial Park Pool facilities. The project will involve final design, asbestos abatement, demolition, and extensive interior and exterior renovations to the pool house, including upgrades to the concrete, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and ADA accessibility features. The project will also repave the parking lot and install site concrete to improve accessibility. This is the only public outdoor pool facility in the city and county, which contain several disadvantaged communities. The renovations will benefit over 3,000 residents within a half-mile, including children, seniors, at-risk youth, and individuals with disabilities, by providing enhanced access to aquatic recreation activities that can improve health, safety, and quality of life.
