North Canton’s Dogwood Pool opening for summer, but long-term future uncertain amid rising costs
North Canton’s Dogwood Pool is set to open this Memorial Day weekend, but city leaders warn that rising maintenance costs could threaten the facility’s long-term future. The pool has been a summertime staple in North Canton since 1971. The main pool and a splash pad for younger children will be open this weekend, weather permitting. Since 2016, repairs to the pool liner have been ongoing, raising concerns about long-term maintenance costs for taxpayers. City officials note that Dogwood is one of the few city pools still operating in the area, as many cities have moved away from public pools due to the cost of operating them. The city says the goal is to keep Dogwood open, but unexpected repairs could make the future uncertain. For now, families can plan on a full summer season at the pool.
