City of <br /> EL REQUEST FOR ACTION <br /> River <br /> TO ITEM NUMBER <br /> Parks and Recreation Commission 8.B. <br /> AGENDA SECTION MEETING DATE PREPARED BY <br /> Discussion Items April 10,2013 Chris Leeseberg,Park Planner-Planner <br /> ITEM DESCRIPTION REVIEWED By <br /> Skate Park Locations Michael Hecker,Parks and Recreation <br /> Director <br /> REVIEWED BY <br /> ACTION REQUESTED <br /> Staff has met with the Skate Park Committee to discuss locations and the users have no issue with the <br /> park being moved to another location. Many feel it would actually be better to have it moved to a new <br /> location. <br /> An area of about an acre is anticipated to be needed. This would not be all for the actual ride surfaces <br /> but include green space, landscaping, and possible spectator areas. <br /> Staff is requesting the Parks and Recreation Commission come to the meeting with ideas of where in the <br /> city a new skate park could be located. Orono Park has been discussed at recent work sessions for the <br /> possible location of a new skate park The concern with this location is the placement of a skate park in <br /> ref4rence to the new destination playground. <br /> Successful parks have two common qualities associated with them. Ease of access and high visibility. <br /> Keep this in mind when reviewing possible sites. <br /> 'POWERED B1 <br /> NATURE <br />
