On Tuesday March 28, 2023, the North County Recreation District Board of Directors voted to award the contract for construction of the new pool in Nehalem. The District received three competitive bids for the project. Par-Tech Construction out of Oregon City was the low bidder and they were awarded the contract.
They are a family-owned business led by a father/son team and they are excited about our project. They were both on site to sign the Contract and meet the NCRD staff.
NCRD will be making plans for a Community Groundbreaking Ceremony in the coming weeks as soon as they have an actual start date which is anticipated will be sometime in April.
Thank you to the entire community for all your support over all the years that it has taken to make this goal a reality. Every dollar you have donated, every hour you have volunteered, every time you have voted yes and all the taxes you have paid is what has brought this to fruition. This is truly an amazing accomplishment for our small rural community.
Thank you for giving us your support and believing in the mission that began in December of 1929 when the School District voted unanimously in favor of building our current Pool so that every child in our community could learn how to swim. NCRD was formed to carry on that mission. The New Pool will allow NCRD to continue that legacy in the 21st century.
Thank you so much for helping us give all of our children and the entire community this incredible opportunity and gift!
