Brandon's Sportsplex Pool is going to stay open.

Brandon city council last night voted unanimously to keep the facility running. Mayor Shari Decter-Hirst says residents of Brandon made it clear that they wanted the pool to stay operational.

The City will now contribute 4 million dollars to the YMCA project instead of 5 million. Annual contributions over the first five years will be reduced from $250,000 down to $100,000.

The size of the YMCA's pool will also be downsized.
