Community win fight to rebuild pool after 18 years

From Summer Times, 9:30 am today

Ever since the Edgeware outdoor pool in St Albans, Christchurch was torn down 18 years ago, locals have been pushing for its return.

Plans for a $3 million, three-pool facility have finally been approved, with plans for the pools to be open next summer.

Lynne O'Keefe is at the helm of the rebuild and joins Anna.
