To keep the public informed, we are providing information regarding City employees that have tested positive for COVID-19 and have regular interaction with the public. The City was notified on June 23 that a staff member at Bellaire Town Square Family Aquatic Center (BTSFAC) tested positive for COVID-19. The employee that tested positive worked at BTSFAC on June 20. Other employees who may have had prolonged exposure to the individual have been identified and safety protocols are being followed. Due to health privacy laws, no names or additional employee information will be released.
While the Bellaire Town Square Family Aquatic Center is sanitized on a regular basis throughout the day, the pool will be closed until further notice to clean and disinfect the facility. We are working on a plan to reopen based upon health safety protocols. We will follow up with additional information once the facility is ready to open.
Please note, the risk of exposure to pool patrons is low as there was limited exposure. Proper hygiene and social distancing protocols were followed.
