NIXA, Mo. — Construction on the Nixa Community Pool began June 23, after an underground leak was found in May.

“We found a leak in the system, a sizable one, 50 to 75,000 gallons a day type leak,” said Matt Crouse Nixa Director of Parks and Recreation. “So, a very large leak forcing us to kind of shut down the pool down and stall things a little bit.”

The Nixa City Council called an emergency meeting on Wednesday and approved up to $100,000 for the repairs. The money comes from a savings account that is reserved for pool maintenance projects like this one.
