Gresham pool open

The pool at DeKalb County’s Gresham recreation center is open.

The Gresham Road pool was briefly closed earlier this month while staff cleaned broken glass from the pool. The pool was drained and refilled.

A county spokeswoman provided incorrect information about the closure on Wednesday.

However, the N.H. Scott pool on Tilson Road remains closed.

The county closed the Scott pool last week because of a leak. The county does not have the $150,000 needed to repair the leak, officials said.

DeKalb is also considering closing two recreation centers – Mason Mill in Decatur and Lucious Sanders in Lithonia – to help meet budget cuts.
