<Financial verification> Pool filtration device in the general sports park has never been in operation for more than 30 years, wasting 5 million yen

Filtration equipment for outdoor pools that have never been in operation = in Maebashi City

At the pool in Maebashi Sports Park in Arakuchimachi, Maebashi City, one "filtration device" installed for about 5 million yen to purify water has never been in operation for more than 30 years since its opening, and the city's 2020 It was found that the annual comprehensive external audit result report points out that it is "useless capital investment". Because the second phase of construction that was expected to use the filtration device has disappeared. The City Sports Division explains, "About 5 million yen is a big amount. I want to plan carefully and never wake it up again." (Hiroshi Sugawara) According to the section, the pool was opened directly by the city in 1989 and is currently outsourced to the city town development public corporation. There are two types of pools in the facility, 25 meters and 15 meters for infants, which were used by a total of about 15,000 people in FY2008. In the machine room of the facility, one filtration device is operating for two "indoor pools". The filtration device in question is another "outdoor pool". Located in the machine room, it is about 2 meters high and 1.5 meters wide, which is one size smaller than the one in operation. At the time of opening, the city planned a second phase of construction to add a pool flowing to the south side of the facility, and it seems that it was installed in anticipation of the completion of this pool. One non-operating aircraft is said to have the processing capacity to circulate water and filter about 60 cubic meters per hour. However, the plan for the second phase of construction has been canceled and it has never been in operation since its installation. The document describing the cost at the time of opening has passed the storage period and is not in the city, and when the section confirmed with the contractor, it was found that the main unit price was about 5 million yen. It is highly possible that hundreds of thousands of yen or more have been added to the main unit price, including the cost of transporting and installing iron equipment, including water supply pipes for one machine that is not in operation. The reason why the second phase of construction was canceled is unknown because the related documents have not been saved because it was more than 30 years ago. At that time, the city built a series of pools in the city, including another flowing pool. He also sought to make effective use of one machine that was not in operation during failure or maintenance of one machine that was in operation, but said that it could not be done due to differences in processing capacity. The report points out that "as a result of the poor setting at the time of initial planning, wasteful capital investment was made. More detailed planning is desired for future planning."
