The current pool needs a little help but is fine. There is no reason to do anything other than fix the issues with the current facility.
The City is currently seeking bids to design-build an upgrade to the pool's bolier system: https://victoria.bon...rtunities/65567. The old boilers were one of the major issues with the current facility, as I recall.
It would be strange to go to all the expense of upgrading the boiler system, and then tear down the pool for a replacement a few years later. Perhaps the City fears a borrowing referendum won't succeed, and is hedging its bets in case it has to keep the old pool running after all.
