GEN: LMC next to pool

[Jan Sullivan <JanNws@AOL.COM>]

Hi all,
   Our district is planning on converting our H.S. gymnasium in a LMC.  Many
of you helped me gather information about where this has been done before and
what we need to watch out for.  Met with architects a few weeks ago and
expressed concerns/issues such as lighting, acoustics, electrical,
ventilation, proximity to cafeteria, etc.  One thing that came up that we need
to explore further is that the LMC will be located adjacent to the newly
expanded swimming pool - the concerns I raised at our previous meeting with
the architect were about humidity, smell of chlorine, and noise from the pool
area.  Was told that these "will not be an issue".  Anybody out there who has
experienced this kind of relocation of your LMC?  Do I need to be concerned or
is it really "not an issue"?  TIA!
