The $42 million Salish Cost school project increased my property tax bill by 9%.

Bond interest rates are much higher now, so a $52 million pool could increase your property taxes by a lot more than that.

Behind the scenes, the people who want their pool no matter the cost are scheming to expand the area that would be taxed to pay for this boondoggle to residents of the county, outside of city limits. That's the textbook case of "taxation without representation", one of the primary grievances that led to the American Revolution.
