Recreation Advisory Board <br />Minutes <br />August 28, 2023 <br />Page 5 of 6 <br />Gene answered a question regarding the possible addition of pickleball lines <br />on the tennis courts. The courts at Centennial Park and Pirates Park are <br />used for league tennis. The USTA league rules prohibit pickleball lines on <br />courts that are used for league tennis. The local USTA tennis league, <br />Centennial Valley Tennis Association, is a group that organizes league play <br />without the expense of joining a private club. <br />In response to a question about the possible location of pickleball courts, <br />Kathy Martin explained that the Louisville Sports Complex near Highway 42 <br />is shared with Lafayette. Only specific uses are allowed. Louisville may have <br />some potential programming rights, but that would have to be worked out. <br />CIP Requests <br />Lisa Norgard said that the golf course needs to have some type of shelter on <br />the front five. This is a safety concern in the event of lightning or hail. <br />Mary O'Brien said a net should be installed at Miner's Field that will prevent <br />foul balls from hitting cars on Highway 42. This is another safety concern. <br />Motion: Add a shelter space on the front five of the Golf Course and a <br />safety net at Miner's Field to the RAB list of CIP requests. <br />Moved: Lisa Norgard <br />Second: Gene Kutscher <br />The motion was approved unanimously. <br />Michele and Lisa will work together to prepare information for City Council <br />before the September 12 deadline. They will send information to the <br />members of the board for feedback and consensus. <br />Discussion Items for Next Meeting <br />Staff Updates <br />Park update, maintenance update — Abby if available <br />Rec Center General Fund Transfers — Kathy <br />Golf Course Update <br />Outdoor Rec Amenities <br />Board Updates <br />Adjourn — The meeting was adjourned at 8:15. <br />Motion: Lisa Norgard <br />Second: Gene Kutscher <br />
