Special tax district may take over operation of swimming pools in Oregon school district

From The Portland Oregonian: The city councils in Tigard and Tualatin, Ore., will ask voters to create a special tax district that would provide funds to operate two swimming pools now run by the Tigard-Tualatin School District. The district operates swimming pools at two high schools, but says it no longer can afford them. Keeping both pools open costs $500,000 to $600,000 annually.
