Fall league participation strong; board considers benches for skate park
Summary
Staff reported participation counts for fall recreation programs and discussed concerns about seating at the skate park; staff said new skate equipment investments totaled about $42,000 and benches cost roughly $2,600 each.
Parks staff reported enrollment numbers for fall leagues: 123 flag-football participants, 165 soccer participants, 309 pickleball participants, 34 tee-ball participants and 37 volleyball participants. Staff said new programs such as tee ball (first year) are growing and that seasonal scheduling allows youth to play under lights.
A board member raised concerns about lack of seating at the skate park for parents and grandparents. Staff said the department recently invested about $42,000 in new skate-park equipment and that a corrugated bench suitable for ADA placement costs about $2,600. Staff said they would check available use-tax funds to determine whether benches could be purchased.
No formal purchase motion or vote on benches was recorded in the transcript.
