Council Member Ryan Essex asked about the consequence if the school bond issue, a condition of the School District proposed capital funding, failed. City Manager Scott Meyer stated that in that event the City would need to seek a different partner in the aquatic facility project, and it would probably result in a different location as well. Council Member Stacy Kinder noted that the Jefferson School site is in a neighborhood with many children that can participate in activities at Shawnee Sports Center. Many of the children living in this area would not have access to a facility that did not allow them to walk or bike to it.
