    Council Member Shekar Krishnan introduces the hearing on water safety and drowning prevention at NYC's public pools and beaches. He provides an overview of the city's aquatic facilities, including 53 outdoor pools, 17 mini pools, 12 indoor pools, and 9 beaches covering 14 miles of coastline.

    • Outdoor pools are free and typically open from late June to early September

    • Lifeguards are on duty at beaches daily from 10 AM to 6 PM
    • Millions of New Yorkers use these facilities annually, with attendance soaring post-pandemic
