Parks & Rec outlines next steps for skate park pending state risk assessment
Summary
Bill Procko said he’s reviewing risk-assessment hurdles for the planned skate park, with potential materials donations and winter construction; Gary Edwards offered to write a Maine Community Foundation rural grant and Bill will meet with Ray and Gary to plan materials and timing.
The Sullivan Parks & Recreation Committee discussed next steps for a proposed skate park but deferred major work pending a state risk assessment.
Bill Procko said he reviewed the Standish skatepark as an example and is looking into hurdles identified in the risk assessment. He reported possible in-kind donations from a lumberyard and said he could do some construction during winter months. Gary Edwards offered to draft a Maine Community Foundation rural grant to help fund the project.
Committee next steps call for Bill to meet with Ray and Gary to go over the state risk assessment and develop a plan for purchasing materials, storing them, and scheduling ground-breaking. The committee did not record a formal vote; the skate park discussion remains contingent on the state report and follow-up planning.
