In a confidential meeting on Tuesday night, Maitland City Council awarded the construction tender for the proposed 25m, heated swimming pool facility to Graph Builders Pty Ltd, with the contract worth $9.3 million.
The Newcastle-based company has won awards for its work on sport and recreation projects.
The firm has worked on projects such as Kurri Kurri Aquatic Centre, Balance Sports Club at Wests Mayfield and NuSport Forum at Honeysuckle.
Work on the Maitland aquatic centre is expected to begin in the next month and will take about a year to complete.
Once finished, the new pool will provide a swimming facility that would be open for Maitland residents all year.
