Commissioner requests porta-potty at Garvey Center after-hours for pickleball players
Loading...
Summary
A commissioner said pickleball courts at the Garvey Center remain open past building hours, leaving senior players without restroom access and asked the county to provide a porta-potty to improve safety and usability.
During the meeting, a commissioner raised an accessibility and facilities concern at the Garvey Center: the pickleball courts remain open until about 9:00 p.m. while the Garvey Center building closes at 8:00 p.m., leaving players—many of them seniors—without restroom access. "We need to find a way that our seniors that are making use of this can have a porta potty out there," the commissioner said, asking the board to address the mismatch between court hours and building access.
The commissioner noted the courts are popular and remain in use later due to longer daylight, but that restroom access would make the facilities more usable. No formal decision or plan for a porta-potty was recorded during the meeting; the item was raised as a request for staff consideration.
The exchange highlighted a routine facilities-management issue affecting recreational users; commissioners did not adopt a specific solution at this session.
