Granite Falls Swimming Pool Information

The Granite Falls public swimming pool was first constructed in 1971. In 2015, the Town of Granite Falls received funding from the North Carolina Parks and Recreation Trust Fund grant to completely overhaul the 225,000 gallon swimming pool. The renovation consisted of completely removing existing pool shell, re-plastering pool surface, adding new ADA zero entrance area, and installing new water features such as floor geysers, rain bar, and spray bollards. The pool also received new deck surfacing, diving blocks, and new black coated chain link fence around pool area. The Granite Falls public swimming pool operates seasonal from the first of June through mid August. The swimming pool is also available for private party rentals on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 5:30-7:30 during the dates listed below. We would love for you to come out and visit our state of the art pool facility.

TOWN OF GRANITE FALLS IMPLEMENTS STAGE 2 MANDATORY WATER REDUCTIONS TO PROTECT LOCAL WATER SUPPLY

GRANITE FALLS, NORTH CAROLINA – Due to continued dry conditions across the region and declining water supply indicators, the Town of Granite Falls has implemented Stage 2: Mandatory Water Reductions under its Water Shortage Response Plan.

This action follows regional drought conditions identified within the Catawba-Wateree River Basin, where Stage 2 drought conditions require immediate conservation efforts to protect shared water resources and preserve drinking water availability.

Stage 2 conditions indicate that water supply levels are significantly below seasonal norms and that prolonged shortages are possible without immediate reductions in water use.

Town officials are urging all residents, businesses, and institutions to take immediate action to reduce nonessential water use.

Under Stage 2, the following restrictions are required for all Granite Falls water customers:

· No lawn watering or irrigation is permitted

· Watering of shrubs, trees, and flowers is limited to:

o 7:00–9:00 a.m. and 7:00–9:00 p.m.

o Hand-held hoses with automatic shutoff nozzles only

· Washing of driveways, sidewalks, and exterior surfaces is prohibited, except when necessary and approved

· Restaurants may only serve water upon customer request

· Filling of swimming pools is restricted to Wednesdays and Saturdays and requires a permit

· All customers must eliminate unnecessary water use, including commercial and industrial operations

These restrictions build upon previously encouraged conservation measures, which are now mandatory and enforceable.
