Committee approves six‑month pilot with Pikes Peak Pickleball Alliance for free lessons
Summary
The committee voted unanimously to create a partnership allowing the Pikes Peak Pickleball Alliance to use up to 50% of available courts one day a week for two hours, with a six‑month review period; the arrangement will rely on simple signage rather than a formal reservation system.
Parks staff proposed a low‑administration pilot with the Pikes Peak Pickleball Alliance (PPA) to offer free lessons on Manitou courts, using simple signage to designate two courts for lessons rather than instituting a full reservation system. Jillian described the plan and told the committee PPA would take hours that are typically less used, reducing impact on regular users.
Colin moved that the committee create a partnership allowing PPA to use up to 50% of the available courts one day a week for two hours; after an amendment to set a six‑month review period, Jahan seconded and the board voted. Chair Tim called the question and declared the motion passed unanimously. “Looks like the motion passes unanimously,” he said. The pilot will be evaluated after six months to decide whether to continue or codify the arrangement.
