And so I would encourage us to, if nothing else, if this is a 15K spend on something that does not require a fenced structural job, whereas the other job is a structural that takes 12 months out to do a structural study and a noise study and everything else, let's just look at the time value of money as well.
If we can get a project in at 15K, let's not let perfect be the enemy of good and, you know, heck, maybe we can get the screen in in a week or two.
And we wouldn't be talking about this.
yeah i appreciate that point of view because i know the construction screens do cause fences to topple and those fences can be quite a bit shorter and so and i haven't seen the fence topple at the sports center as well in a in a recent storm i think a year ago so thank you commissioner linscock hi um yeah so on the pickleball thing um
Thank you, Chair.
I did also
speak to the vendor about how well accepted that solution has been and it appears that at least the vendor being in florida they've had wide acceptance in florida with no negative concerns on that i know they also submitted a noise study and they seem to stand by the decibel reductions on their different versions so in general it just seems like let's uh
let's look at our options and if you have something that's seamless and in place upgradable without offense structural upgrade you know if that's something that we can consider and maybe even we can talk to the public works peers but that these vendors have because they are working with other parks and rec and other public works city departments they're all working with city parks and city facilities so if we can in fact use this opportunity to network with our
peer colleagues in those cities, let's ask those questions of them, whether they've had to do those structural improvements, because I know we are in a fiscal crisis.
We'd like to save all the dollars we can, but we'd also like the pickleball community and the neighborhood to get some sound relief so that we can get back to 9 o'clock.
I know when I used to play, it was always in the evening, and I couldn't get out in the morning as a working person, but I appreciated the 9 p.m.
time and would love to see the 9 p.m.
come back.
Thank you.
Yes, Director.
Mostly, I know we get a lot of, at least I hear from the Commons neighborhood as well, the Commons property by the
by the Sports Center and there on the southern side of where the Memorial Park facility is.
Is there anything that could be done to improve noise on the southern side as well?
Because I know when I'm walking Memorial Park on that pathway by the parking lot, the pickleball sound is audible and that's right by where Commons is.
So since we are going after this project, is there any way we can help the Commons residents as well?
