Water Quality Testing Results for Graydon Pool

I think the water probably DOES meet the state standard, and I really haven't read that any of our elected officials have said otherwise. But, ya know, I think the water still "looks dirty" and that's how I'm going to make my decision about swimming there or not. So, with all due respect Mr. Lieberman, your reliance on state evidence is recognized. But rejected.

I recall reading that the water tests at Graydon are for man-made lakes and ponds which are not held to the same standard as pools. Any way to post the referred to attachments so we can all see the actual test results? Thanks.

I think the bottom line is that there are those that want the clear/chlorinated water, and those that want the lake like/sand. No matter what figures are presented on both sides I don't see people changing their minds on what they want.

re: "But, ya know, I think the water still "looks dirty" and that's how I'm going to make my decision about swimming there or not. "

If you actually look at the water, you will see that THE WATER doesn't look dirty - walk to the edge and look in... you can see the bottom.

Walk in (God forbid) and keep looking down... you can see your feet. The only time you can't see your feet is when you kick up the sand... but didn't you learn about this phenomenon in Middle School Science class?

Of course, the bottom is sand, so when you are driving by Graydon and look at the water, your see the sandy bottom not a nice natural painted blue look.

Have you actually ever been to Graydon?

My house doesn't meet the standards of a 5 star hotel, does that mean they should knock it down and build a 5 star hotel?

Or do we simply accept that it is not a 5 star hotel, but a house, and that as a house it meets all standards?

The water is fine, if you are 'grossed out" by it, go elsewhere. I am "grossed out" by the idea of a water park.

God forbid! Sea creatures do all kinds of things in the ocean that you really don't want to know about.

its a nice place to with your frinds.but do we have the money for this .I know for a fact that the villade own buildings are in need of repair and the fleet needs some new trucks and more and more it needs a full time village worker to stay at all times and keep on top of things.

Wow, what a waste of money on an attorney -- anyone can walk into the Stable and read those results!!! Of course Graydon meets the requirements or it wouldn't be open -- but we're talking about the requirements for a POND. The composition of our town has changed, like it or not. The vast majority of people who would actually buy badges to a swim facility want a pool, not a pond.

there are pools all over, buy a badge there, and leave "the pond' as it is and has been for 100yrs.
