Flooding Forces Cedar Beach Pool to Close Again

From Allentown: Floodwaters from Cedar Creek are forcing the closing of Allentown’s Cedar Beach Pool for the second time this summer.

 

Floodwaters reached the pool at about 12:30 this afternoonThe city will re-assess the situation after the water recedes.

 

Cedar Pool was closed due to flooding on Saturday, August 4.  It re-opened on Friday, August 10 after it had been drained, cleaned, refilled and passed water quality testing.

This has happened before and will continue when the area has large rainfalls. The best fix is to raise the existing dike that protests the pool to the level of Ott St and to extend it beyond the pool.
