SEDGEMOOR district councillors today rubber-stamped the early closure of the Splash in Bridgwater – despite passionate opposition from the public.
At a meeting in Bridgwater House, councillors passed a recommendation made by the executive last month to close the pool early and plough the savings into a new pool at Chilton Trinity.
Around 70 members of the public attended the meeting and 18 people spoke in vain to keep the Splash open.
For a full report of today’s meeting, read next Tuesday’s Mercury.
