It means our monthly lifestyle fee ought to cover it, just as it covers all kinds of other facilities we might never use, such as paddle/cage tennis when there is already tennis and pickleball.

If your monthly fee did support it:
Where would it be located? Wouldn't people who lived far away complain that it is their money also?
Would just one indoor pool that was free be able to support 100K people in the winter months? Not likely.
I've read many, many people on this forum who swim and exercise year round (with maybe a few very cold days off) in the main sports pools. The lack of an indoor facility doesn't stop them. I do know that some handicap people might need an indoor pool but unfortunately one is not on the agenda.
I wouldn't support any raise in fees for an indoor pool. If there was enough support for it then some enterprising person, and there are many in TV, should build one and charge a monthly fee. Don't see that happening IMHO.
