In a recent meeting held by the City of Webster Groves, officials discussed the status of the skate park in relation to the ongoing pool project. The skate park was not included in the initial plans for the pool, which has taken more time and resources than anticipated.

City representatives explained that the original intention was to begin work on the skate park immediately after the pool's completion. However, delays in the pool project, coupled with staffing changes within the Parks and Recreation Department, have hindered progress. The pool's completion took longer than expected, which pushed back plans for the skate park.

Currently, the skate park is open for use, but it lacks the necessary features for skaters. This situation highlights the challenges faced by the city in managing multiple recreational projects simultaneously. As the community awaits further developments, the city is expected to prioritize the skate park's improvements in the coming months.

The discussions reflect broader concerns about resource allocation and project management within the city's recreational facilities, emphasizing the need for effective planning to meet community needs.
