Plainfield Council Balks at Rushmore Pool Fees, Citing Affordability Fears
Plainfield City Hall Annex — Approximate Daily-Pass Prepayment Site. A proposal to start charging admission at Plainfield's year-old Rushmore Aquatic Complex collapsed this week when a city council motion to introduce the fee ordinance failed to get a second.

According to Chavez, León omitted portions of parents’ statements that Chavez said criticized how they and their children have been treated in district schools.
