ARMONK, N.Y. - The Anita Louise Ehrman pool board met with the North Castle Supervisor and other town officials Thursday night but hasn't decided yet what to do with the pool.
The pool board is in debt after a $3 million renovation. The pool is currently for sale, while pool members and other citizens have started a drive to save it.
Town Supervisor Howard Arden said that no decision was made at last nights meeting, but that the board has a number of options.
"They can sell the pool, go into default on their loan and the bank will own it, find a white knight to come in and bail them out or the town could buy it," Arden said.
For the town to buy it, a referendum would be held, as voters decide whether the town could finance it.
Arden said it would take 60 to 90 days to hold a referendum, but that there may not be enough money to last for three more months. The board's mortgage is about $8,800 a month.
Chris Yaroscak, Managing Partner of Legacy Development in Armonk, who heads the pool board, was unavailable for comment.
"We're trying to facilitate it, we don't want the pool to go away," Arden said. "But until they come up with a game plan, we're on the sideline."
