) -“Really an aquatic center has been talked about probably into the 90s,” said Danny Corte with Mobile Sports Authority.
Because of that, groups like the Mobile Swim Association have had to leave the area to host home meets. “Not only bring the kids and the coaches to town but they also bring the parents, grandparents, siblings so those events for us bring some strong economic impact for us,” added Corte. County Commission President Connie Hudson says the cost for the first phase is estimated between $18-$21 million dollars. So far, the county has contributed $4 million while the city has chipped in $3 million.
