The Breda City Pool was constructed in 1967 and was reported to be in need of significant repair or replacement. The decision was made to renovate the current pool at an estimated cost of $580,420. This project included all new piping to meet today’s code standards, new pool and deck resurfacing, new diving board and stand, new chemical shed and feed system, new bathhouse roof and privacy fencing.

The City of Breda previously received funding for this project through WIN in the form of the USDA Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) back in May. Breda was the first entity to apply for this loan through WIN which totaled $360,000 at 0% interest. This loan helped to bridge the gap to allow work to continue on the restoration project while fund raising efforts continued.
