Concern about olympic size pool - don't mind leasing - but during summer months - at least 50% of time should be for citizens not special interest grouops. Lewis - will that cause a problem with cost recovery? Price - since discussions yesterday have looked at projected use of competition pool - feel that 60% will be public use - recreation programs, camps, master programs, lap swimming. About 9 % of time down for maintenance. Anticipating 31% of time will be available for rental and 4% of time for schools (Carlsbad, La Costa High, and San Marcos.)
