The Commission and staff discussed the Skate Park with skaters
that were present. Some of their suggestions for improving the
Skate Park were to smooth out specific areas of the wall bordering
the fenced area, which are extremely hard on the skate boards, as
well as the suggestion to either remove the picnic table or modify it
along the edges so skaters can utilize it.
Jeremy Laurentowski stated that new signs for the Skate Park are
on order.
2. Arroyo Vista Community Park:
The Commission and staff discussed suggestions for the unused
multi-purpose court. Some suggestions were for bike use, a
basketball court, or a weekly family skate night. It was also
suggested that the Teen Council could become involved and
participate in planning some teen activities for the court.
3. Country Trail Park:
The Commission and staff discussed playground equipment and
surfacing replacement. Jeremy Laurentowski stated if the existing
equipment and surfacing were replaced with new, it would then be
necessary to make the play area ADA accessible from the entrance
of the park to the equipment. Due to the steep incline, this
construction would be extremely expensive and the City is not able
to budget for it at this time.
Repairing the existing surfacing and installing a small ramp from
the grass to the play equipment was discussed.
4. Peach Hill Park:
The Commission and staff discussed different options for the
vacant tot lot area.
Commissioner Weisberger suggested that a water feature should
be considered for this area.
5. Monte Vista Pak:
The Commission and staff discussed the possibility of a needed
restoration project.
