Although this will reduce the total number of City-owned and managed tennis courts <br /> from 21.5 to 19.5 courts (there is a half-court with a ball wall at Meadows Park), that is <br /> still more than other Tri-Valley cities. Additionally, the total available public courts in <br /> Pleasanton is 30.5 courts which include the two Pleasanton Middle School tennis courts <br /> that the City maintains and the nine courts at Amador Valley High School that the City <br /> and School District have a shared-use agreement for (assuming two of the Muirwood <br /> Courts are converted to pickleball). <br /> Staff conducted research, discussed pickleball with other cities, and presented potential <br /> pickleball locations within Pleasanton to the Parks and Recreation Commission at its <br /> November 18, 2021, meeting. Based on that presentation, the Parks and Recreation <br /> Commission recommended locating pickleball courts at Muirwood Community Park. <br /> To help fund construction of the pickleball courts and court resurfacing project at <br /> Muirwood Community Park, staff submitted a Proposition 68 grant application for <br /> $227,000 on December 16, 2021. Proposition 68, the Parks, Environment, and Water <br /> Bond, approved by voters on June 5, 2018, authorized $4 billion in general obligation <br /> bonds for state and local parks, environmental protection and restoration projects, water <br /> infrastructure projects, and flood protection projects. A portion of the Proposition 68 <br /> grant money is distributed through a non-competitive grant and set aside for each local <br /> agency. The $227,000 in funding is Pleasanton's portion of the total funding from <br /> Proposition 68. <br /> The Muirwood Community Park Court Resurfacing Project, which includes conversion <br /> of two tennis courts to six pickleball courts, resurfacing the two remaining tennis courts, <br /> resurfacing the pickleball courts, resurfacing the existing basketball court, and providing <br /> associated site amenities and furnishing replacement is expected to utilize all available <br /> funding for the project. Funding includes $227,000 from the Proposition 68 grant and <br /> $250,000 from the Annual Court Resurfacing Project, CIP No. 22744. <br /> Staff is requesting that City Council review and approve the conversion of two tennis <br /> courts to six pickleball courts at Muirwood Community Park. <br /> Submitted by: Fiscal Review: Approved by: <br /> '11'L-cf7 47)`)/1? <br /> )1:// <br /> Stephen Kirkpatrick Heidi Murphy Mahin Shah Brian Dolan <br /> Director of Director of Library and Interim Director of Interim City <br /> Engineering Recreation Finance Manager <br /> Attachments: 1 .
