Board supports researching bleacher-style bench near pickleball courts to address safety and accessibility concerns
Summary
Board consensus advanced a proposal to add an extended bleacher-style bench between basketball and pickleball courts to provide dedicated spectator seating and reduce sidewalk crowding; staff will confirm whether cell-tower agreement funds are available.
Staff reported growing spectator attendance at the pickleball courts and noted people frequently sit along sidewalks, creating safety and accessibility concerns. Ms. Alex proposed installing an extended bleacher-style bench between the basketball and pickleball courts; she said funds previously set aside from the cell-tower agreement may be available but would need confirmation.
The board reached consensus to propose the bench for FY 26/27 consideration and asked staff to verify whether cell-tower agreement funds can be used for the project and to provide cost estimates.
