Frankly when city employee Drennan made the comment about the pool floating out of the ground if the waster escape route was blocked was something I had never thought about and even then would have found it strange to see a pool rising out of the earth but I did find that this happened in a small town in Oregon called Veneta.
" By now, most residents of the Veneta area are aware of the loss of the swimming pool three years ago. The existing pool, located on East Broadway Avenue at City Park, was constructed in 1959 to provide water safety training and summer recreation. After 47 years of service, the pool floated out of the ground in 2006 during an unusual storm event when the pool had been drained for maintenance"
