AN URGENT request to keep Carnforth swimming pool open until December 31 was to be considered by Lancaster City Council last night (Wednesday).
The three-month extension has been proposed to give Carnforth Town Council time to set up a community interest company to take over the Kellet Road pool with a "seamless" transfer. The extra cost to the city council would be £17,900.
