North Park pool opening delayed

The swimming pool at North Park will see a delayed opening this year, Allegheny County officials announced Monday.

The county converted the chlorine and filtration systems at the popular pool during the off-season. When staff turned the systems on, malfunctioning valves pushed sediment into the water, leaving the entire pool cloudy.

County officials said they ordered new parts for the 90-year-old pool and hope to complete repairs in time to open by the end of the week.

Anyone with a county pool season pass can use the other pools at Boyce Park, Settlers Cabin Park and South Park.
