In 2008, The issue became a town-wide problem of what to do with Graydon because many people were unhappy with it. Many said that the pool water was dirty and not comfortable to swim in. There were also rumors that the water was from the river when it is really from underground springs. A group called the Ridgewood Pool Project proposed an idea to turn Graydon into a concrete pool. The town council turned it down seeing as many people still loved Graydon's natural settings and sand bottom. Another group called the Preserve Graydon Coalition is dedicated to preserving Graydon's natural appearance while pleasing everyone. New ideas were proposed to make Graydon cleaner and clearer. New filters, different sand, and natural chemicals were suggested to help the already chlorinated pond.
