In 2016, HOK Architects commissioned Counsilman-Hunsaker to provide a swimming pool audit for the Bowman Gray Memorial Pool and the Kessing Outdoor Pool. The audit assisted in defining a course of action regarding the future of aquatic offerings with an opinion of probable construction costs for the recommended repairs. Research included consulting the North Carolina Department of Environmental and Natural Resources – Section .2500 – Public Swimming Pools and the Model Aquatic Health Code.
