Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


                 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
                       RS 0319
      
     This bill provides the Lava Hot Springs Foundation the authority to seek
     financing through the State Building Authority for approximately $400,000 in
     safety and recreation improvements for the Olympic Pool at the Lava Hot Springs
     facility. The foundation would like to replace the existing ladder for the diving
     platform, which is steep and exceedingly dangerous, and also build a hydro-tube
     and splash pool facility adjacent to the diving platform. The diving platform and
     hydro-tube would both be accessible from the same new stairway/landing access.
     Increased admission fees of about three to four dollars, in combination with
     anticipated increases in attendance would finance the bond after the facility
     improvements are complete with a ten year payback. 
     
     
     
                     Fiscal Note 
     
     No General Fund fiscal impact. The $400,000 in safety and recreation
     improvements would be paid back with dedicated funds supported by Lava Hot
     Springs swimming pool receipts.
