Committee discusses $10,000 planning grant for skatepark; $5,000 for renderings and possible pickleball planning
Summary
The committee reviewed a $10,000 grant approved in partnership with Age Friendly for planning improvements at skate park and rec center sites; about $5,000 is slated for skatepark renderings and the remainder could support planning for possible pickleball courts.
Bonnie Sparks reported that a $10,000 grant, approved in collaboration with Age Friendly, will be used for planning improvements at the skate park and recreation center sites. Committee members said approximately $5,000 is planned for skatepark renderings and the balance could fund planning work that might include space for one or more pickleball courts.
Members referenced construction guidance from the US Pickleball Association as a planning resource; no procurement or construction contract was discussed at this meeting. The funding was described as planning money—not construction funding—and committee members did not take a formal vote to allocate construction dollars at this meeting.
Staff and committee members indicated the next steps are to refine renderings and planning scope; additional decisions, public input or formal requests for construction funding would be required before any court or construction work proceeds.
