A 2025/2026 budget allocation has been provided to investigate the feasibility of an indoor pool within the Scottsdale Aquatic Centre facility. 
 

Please note: this is a feasibility assessment only and does not guarantee further works.

Current Project Status:

At the June 22 Council Meeting, Council endorsed to progress with a feasibility assessment into the options for enclosing and year-round operations at the Scottsdale Aquatic Centre.

This will focus on the 25-metre lap lane pool and look to current and future demand, as well as costings, operational modelling, and recommendations for implementation and operation.

The report will help guide Council to a decision either for or against enclosure over the pool as well as establish a platform for any future community consultation.

A Request for Quote (RFQ) for a consultant to undertake the project is currently being drafted.
