The city of Gainesville is set to demolish the historic Green Street Pool if the City Council approves the renovation at Tuesday’s meeting. City Council members approved adding the parks and recreation item to the agenda for next week’s meeting at its work session Thursday morning. The parks department is asking for $175,000 in impact fee funds to create green space on the pool’s site and make improvements to Wessell Park’s tennis and basketball courts, said Director Melvin Cooper.
