Construction of Windsor's east end pool is ahead of schedule thanks to mother nature.
The favourable weather has allowed construction to move forward and the building is almost completely closed in.
Project Manager Don Sadler says they are now prepping for the delivery of the pool from Italy.
"It's a stainless steel pool system and it's in the water as we speak and it's scheduled to arrive near the end of next week," says Sadler.
The pool is scheduled to be ready for August 2016.
SPS Board Chair Kelly Ash said the decision followed discussions with Acting Chief Mike Federico and aligns with practices at other police services.

The $7.6 million project, which also involved water and sewer infrastructure improvements, began in 2024.
The Toronto Blue Jays dropped their third in a row Thursday, 6-5 to the visiting Texas Rangers, and the Detroit Tigers suffered a 2-1 loss to Houston.
The week-long celebration starts on Saturday and continues to next Friday.
Environment Canada said Thursday night that severe thunderstorms were moving further east after rain and high winds affected portions of the region.
