Children's swim-safety program

Summary

Chairman Mariano raised the idea of a countywide learn-to-swim program after roughly 150 drowning-response calls since 2024. Staff think disaster-recovery or other grant money could fund it cheaply, and commissioners suggested partnering with Seal Swim School, the YMCA and the YMCA-area aquatic centers.
