A
Okay,
everyone,
let's
call
this
meeting
to
order.
This
is
the
boise
parks
and
recreation
commission
regular
monthly
meeting.
Let's
start
with
a
roll
call.
A
A
Okay,
that
motion
carries
so
we're
on
to
our
second
item,
which
is
the
eagle
rock
park
court
conversion
project
proposal,
and
this
is
a
public
hearing.
So
let
me
just
sort
of
lay
things
out
a
little
bit.
So
first
we're
going
to
hear
a
short
presentation
from
the
department
director
holloway
is
going
to
put
on
that
presentation.
A
I
think
we'll
have
the
remote
attendees
speak
first
and
then
the
in
person,
we'll
close
the
public
hearing,
the
commission
will
have
an
opportunity
for
discussion
and
then
a
decision
and
we'll
have
further
direction
on
how
that
testimony
is
going
to
take
place
right
before
the
public
meetings
open.
So
with
that
I'll
turn
it
over
to
director
holloway.
D
Thank
you,
mr
president.
Commission
members,
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
bring
forth
to
you
a
proposal
to
look
at
some
tennis
court
conversions
into
pickleball
at
our
eagle
rock
park,
and
so
we'll
just
jump
right
into
that.
D
So
give
me
a
little
background
on
this
and
I
think
we
have
talked
a
lot
in
our
commission
meetings
about
the
department's
responsibility
and
this
commission's
responsibility
in
balancing
the
needs
not
only
of
the
pickleball
community,
but
also
all
of
our
users,
of
our
systems
that
we
have
throughout
the
city
a
lot
of
needs,
and
we
do
our
best
to
try
to
balance
those
needs
with
the
resources
that
we
have
available
to
us.
D
D
We
did
do
some
court
observation.
I
believe
we
did
that
over
a
two-week
period
in
may.
I
will
put
the
disclaimer
on
that
court
observation.
It
was
not
scientific
by
any
stretch,
it
was
staff
members
going
to
the
courts
at
different
times
of
day
different
days
of
the
week
and
observing
the
number
of
folks
that
were
utilizing.
Tennis
versus
those
that
were
utilizing
pickleball,
but
in
no
means
is,
are
the
results
of
that
really
being
used
to
pit
one
group
against
the
other.
D
It
was
just
to
get
a
feel
for
an
anecdotal
feeling
that
that
the
courts
may
have
some
underutilization.
D
So,
looking
at
our
inventory
right
now
in
our
department,
we
currently
have
76
tennis
courts
across
boise.
There
are
additional
51
courts
that
are
available
for
public
play
at
the
boise
school
district,
I'll
clarify
that
that
is
more
of
an
evening
and
weekend
and
some
are
available.
The
the
district
prefers
to
not
have
people
on
those
courts.
During
the
the
school
day,
we
also
have
12
dual
courts
that
are
aligned
for
both
tennis
and
pickleball.
D
D
We
also
sent
a
postcard
out
to
residents
and
homeowners
within
a
half
mile
radius
of
eagle
rock
park,
and
then
we
also
did
next
door
notifications
about
the
proposal
and
that
we
scheduled
an
upcoming
public
meeting
with
the
neighborhood
and
again
invited
our
our
tennis
community,
the
neighborhood
as
well
as
our
pickleball
community.
D
D
So
before
you
this
evening,
mr
president
and
commission
members
are
three
proposals
that
we
would
like
to
you
to
consider
proposal.
One
would
be
to
keep
both
tennis
courts,
as
is
with
no
changes,
essentially
do
nothing
and
continue
with
the
bring
your
own
net
pickleball
option
as
well.
D
And
then
chloe,
I
think
we
maybe
we
got
something
there
that
so
keep
the
tennis
courts
as
is,
but
so
the
the
underlying
piece
there
we
just
made
some
last-minute
changes.
I
don't
believe
that
applies
to
that.
Does
it
because
we
weren't
going
to
keep
one
dedicated
tennis
court
and
one
tennis
court
with
two
bring
your
own
net?
Is
that
what
we
do
now?
D
Okay,
so
option
one
is
we
do
nothing
but
maintain
the
current
process.
We
have
in
place
at
eagle
rock
park.
Option
two
would
be
convert
the
two
tennis
courts
and
we
believe
that
in
our
layout
and
we'll
show
you
a
graph
of
that
that
if
we
are
able
to
use
the
entire
footprint
of
the
park,
so
that's
sideline
to
sideline.
D
Inside
that
tennis
court
footprint
we
can
safely
convert
the
two
tennis
courts
into
six
pickleball
courts,
so
that
would
be
option
two
so
option.
One
is:
do
nothing
option
two
would
be
convert
the
two
tennis
into
into
six
pickleball
option.
Three
would
be
a
hybrid
format
where
we
would
maintain
one
tennis
court
and
then
convert
the
second
tennis
court
into
two
pickleball
courts
on
this
one.
D
I
think
the
original
conversation
with
the
neighborhood
was
that
and
with
our
pickleball
community
is
that
we
could
get
three
pickleball
courts
onto
one
tennis
court
and
after
looking
at
the
fact
that
it
would
be
a
very,
very
tight
fit
we
our
design
team
and
myself,
mainly
myself.
I
did
not
feel
comfortable
with
jamming
three
into
that
one
tennis
court.
D
I
do
not
believe
it
gives
us
enough
space
in
between
corpse
or
actually
on
baseline
or
either
baseline
and
so
two
fit
comfortably
three
do
not
so
our
apologies
that
I
think
we
jump
the
gun
a
little
bit
and
say
we
could
get
three,
but
after
further
review
and
really
a
comfort
from
a
safety
standpoint,
the
best
we
would
be
able
to
do
is
two
pickleball
courts
on
one
tennis
court,
and
this
gives
you
that
layout
format
on
what
that
would
look
like,
and
we
did
look
at
changing,
even
the
direction
and
going
instead
of
east-west
north-south,
whatever
that
would
look
like
and
still
did
not
have
enough
space
to
get
the
three
in
on
one
on
one
tennis
court.
D
So,
but
that
gives
you
the
two
options
of
the
conversions.
We
get
the
six
because
we
can
use
the
entire
footprint
we
get
two
if
we're
looking
at
just
one
tennis
court,
so
the
feedback
we
received,
not
surprisingly,
there
is
strong
support
for
the
full
six
court
conversion
from
our
pickleball
community.
Tennis
players
are
opposed
to
decreasing
playing
space
at
this
neighborhood
park.
D
We
did
get
some
feedback
from
the
tennis
community
that
a
hybrid
option
that
number
three
option
is
acceptable,
but
it
really
was
relayed
to
us
more
along
the
line.
If
we're
gonna
lose
something
we
at
least,
we
should
be
able
to
keep
something
here
at
this
neighborhood
park,
but
obviously,
if
they
had
their
choice,
it
would
be
not
to
do
anything
and
look
at
that
option.
Number
one.
D
There
are
also
a
lot
of
concerns
we
receive
on
parking
noise
and
then
just
the
increase
of
the
park
use
which
of
those
three
that
you
see
on
the
screen,
that's
the
least
because
we
like
seeing
parks
being
used,
and
so
but
I
do
understand,
noise
complaints.
I
think
I
can
speak
on
behalf
of
neighbors
that
live
around
manitou
and
and
willow
lane
that
there's
certainly
some
challenges
there.
D
That's
why
we
ask
our
pickleball
community
to
be
done
at
eight
o'clock
at
night
and
we
get
mostly
compliance
on
that,
not
100
percent.
So
we
still
hear
from
the
neighborhood
that
people
are
playing
after
that
eight
o'clock
hour,
but
that's
our
compromise
with
the
neighborhood,
because
we
all
know
that
the
sound
of
that
ball,
hitting
that
paddle
can
make
some
significant
noise
and,
if
neighbors
are
close
by
then
that
becomes
certainly
could
become
an
issue
at
eagle
rock.
D
We
believe
that
we
are
far
enough
away
from
the
residential
portion
that
surrounds
the
park,
that
that
was
also
one
of
the
considerations
that
made
it
a
a
location
for
a
possible
conversion.
D
So,
back
to
mr
president,
commission
members
was
before
you
this
evening.
Are
the
three
options?
One
option
one
keep
the
tennis
courts,
as
is
with
no
changes
option
to
convert
the
entire
complex
tennis
complex
into
six
pickleball
courts
or
option.
Three
would
be
the
hybrid
format
where
we
keep
one
tennis
and
then
go
with
two
pickleball
courts.
E
D
Side,
mr
president,
commissioner,
johnson,
the
short
answer
would
be
yes:
court
conversions
are
pretty
they're,
actually
fairly
easy
to
do
and
they're
fairly
inexpensive,
and
so
yes,
the
short
answer
would
be
that
the
longer
answer
would
be
going
through
this
process
again
and
making
sure
that
everybody
has
a
say
in
what
we're
thinking
about
doing
and
we're
happy
to
do
that,
because
our
our
jobs
are
to
do
the
best
we
can
to
meet
the
demands
of
of
our
citizens,
and
so
we
certainly
could
look
at
that
in
the
future.
A
Okay,
well
with
that,
we'll
move
towards
the
public
hearing
here.
So
let
me
just
sort
of
talk
some
procedure
and
ground
rules,
so,
as
noted
we're
going
to
let
the
folks
that
are
participating
remotely
testify.
First,
then
we'll
move
to
those
that
have
signed
up
to
testify
or
speak
here
in
person.
A
So
everyone's
going
to
have
three
minutes,
that's
a
hard
deadline.
We've
got
to
make
sure
that
everyone
has
the
same
amount
of
time
and
that
we
move
this
forward.
The
exception
is,
if
you're
speaking
on
behalf
of
an
organization,
you'll
have
10
minutes.
If
you
are
speaking
on
behalf
of
an
organization,
only
one
person
can
speak
on
behalf
of
that
organization.
A
We'll
ask
that
you
approach
the
podium
state,
your
name
and
address.
That's
when
we'll
start
your
time
and
then
proceed
with
your
three
minutes.
A
All
the
written
comments
are
have
been
circulated
to
the
members
of
the
commission,
including
those
that
were
received
late.
We've
got
those
here,
we've
all
reviewed
those,
so
your
written
comments
have
been
received,
a
couple
things
that
have
come
up
in
some
other
hearings.
Sometimes
members
of
the
public
want
to
ask
some
questions.
A
A
Any
member
of
the
commission
can
note
that
down
and
during
our
discussion
after
we
can
ask
that
question
to
the
commission
or
to
the
department,
and
they
can
answer
again,
we
run
into
issues
of
we
can't
have
it
back
and
forth
and
then
some
people
say
well.
Why
did
the
department
answer
my
question
and
not
others
that
sort
of
thing?
And
then
we
want
to
encourage
participation
by
everyone.
A
A
B
So
for
those
who
would
like
to
testify
via
zoom,
please
use
the
raised
hand
feature.
So
I
know
you
would
like
to
testify.
F
Right,
oh,
my
name
is
merrill
mccord.
My
address
is
502
north
pacific
street
boise,
idaho
83706,
and
I
am
an
advocate
for
the
six
pickleball
courts
to
be
that
conversion
to
happen,
and
I
think
it's
in
the
city's
best
interest
to
be
following
the
trends
of
a
very
popular
sport
that
accommodate
all
ages
and
just
about
every
month
of
the
year
for
outside
play.
A
Thank
you,
ms
mccord,
all
right.
Anyone
else
on
the
zoom
platform.
H
A
Okay,
pam
fabry,
we've
got
you.
Can
you
state
your
name
and
address
and
we'll
start
your
time.
H
My
name
is
pam
fabry
and
I
live
at
302.
North
bacon
drive
and
I
am
right
literally
behind
those
tennis
courts,
and
you
know
I
hear
the
tennis
balls
going.
You
know
for
most
of
the
day
unless
it's
too
hot,
I
would
definitely
choose
option
one
and
three
at
my
next
choice.
H
You
know
the
this
is
in
my
backyard
literally
and
I
don't
think
listening
to
24
players
playing
pickleball
all
day
long,
it
would
be
equivalent
to
me
to
listening
to
dogs
barking
all
day
long,
I'm
retired,
I'm
home,
I
think
leaving
it.
The
way
it
is
would
be
my
my
choice.
H
I
think
parks
and
rec,
hopefully
can
find
something.
That's
bigger,
more
tournament,
friendly
in
a
different
location
for
the
growing
population
of
pickleball
people.
H
All
sports
are
fun.
We
we
cherish
that
about
our
area
being
involved
in
a
lot
of
different
sports,
but
we
also
where
I
live,
contend
with
concerts.
You
know
there's
a
lot
of
action
that
happens
in
our
little
neighborhood
down
here.
H
A
lot
of
people
enjoy
our
foothills.
The
parking
situation
is
is
trying
at
times
a
lot
of
people,
take
advantage
of
our
trails,
and
that's
all
I
have
to
say.
A
Okay,
we'll
maybe
if,
if
you
are
on
zoom
and
want
to
raise
your
hand
later,
we
might
give
one
last
call
at
the
end
of
this.
But
for
now
we'll
turn
in
person,
and
I
do
want
to
note-
we
have
council,
member
hallie
burton
and
councilmember
sanchez
here
welcome.
A
Okay!
So
let's
start
the
in-person
public
hearing
and
I'm
just
gonna
go
through
the
list
of
names:
apologies
in
advance
for
not
being
able
to
read
your
handwriting
or
pronounce
your
names.
So
we've
got
ken
weingartner.
J
Name
is
ken
weingartner,
3707,
west
vaughn
street
boise,
idaho
83705?
J
I
have
been
playing
pickleball,
I
would
say
for
about
three
to
four
years
now
and
I
retired
two
years
ago
and
people
ask
me:
what
are
you
gonna
do?
I
said,
play
pickleball,
so
that's
what
I'm
doing
and
the
sport
is
growing
like
crazy
and
I'm
noticing
in
the
last
few
years
that
we're
actually
getting
more
younger
players
now.
So
the
sport
is
taken
off.
J
J
So
pickleball
is
like
the
one
game
you
can
have
and
a
lot
of
people
here
know
this-
that
we
can
still
go
out
with
and
have
a
knee
injury,
a
hand,
injury,
a
foot,
injury
and
we
can
get
out
and
still
get
some
exercise
and
play
a
game
that
relatively
doesn't
take
a
hell
of
a
lot
of
effort.
So
it's
a
great
game
and
it's
great
for
those
reasons
and
it
keeps
older
people,
vibrant
and
out
there
playing.
J
A
All
right:
next,
we
have
diana
durland.
K
K
K
I
100
percent
believe
that
the
sport
has
allowed
countless
ex-tennis
players
and
new
pickleball
players
to
remain
active,
keep
moving
and
grooving
it's
a
kind
of
sport.
Pardon
me
it's
a
kind
sport
on
our
body
easy
to
play.
We
have
something
to
look
for
every
day,
how
fortunate
I've
been
to
meet
this
large
group
of
fun,
active,
interesting
old
and
young
players.
Many
many
friends
I
will
have
forever.
K
K
There
was
always
a
court
available
somewhere
close.
However,
my
experience
hasn't
been
the
same
with
pickleball.
Our
boise
courts
are
absolutely
packed.
It's
only
fair
that
we
share
our
park
space.
We
are
all
tax
player
taxpayers.
After
all,
I'd
really
like
to
enjoy
the
rest
of
my
active
years
playing
pickleball,
not
hanging
a
paddle
on
a
fence
and
waiting
in
line
we've
all
felt
growing
pains
that
boise
is
experiencing.
K
The
same
is
happening
to
pickleball.
I've
seen
the
numbers
quadruple
in
the
four
or
five
years.
I've
played
you've
actually
read
and
heard
just
this
past
week
in
the
idaho
press.
Actually
how
quickly
the
sport
is
growing
mark
my
words.
Some
of
these
folks
opposing
pickleball
courts
now
are
going
to
find
themselves
moving
from
tennis
to
pickleball
before
they
know
it.
K
A
M
I'm
steve
moreno:
I
live
at
5192,
north
liverpool
83714,
so
I'm
from
the
other
side
of
town
and
I'm
here
to
offer
my
congratulations
to
the
members
of
this
commission
for
their
foresight
in
years
ago.
Recognizing
that
pickleball
was
going
to
be
a
hot
item
and
so
I'm
a
lifetime
racquetball
player.
My
knees
are
great,
but
my
back
went
to
pot,
and
so
I
ended
up
with
back
surgery
and
after
back
surgery.
M
My
wife
came
up
with
this
crazy
idea
if
it
hurts
so
much
when
you
play,
why
don't
you
quit
so?
I
said:
okay,
I
quit
and
then
I
started
to
be
a
problem
at
the
house.
So
then
I
started
looking
around.
What
could
I
do
and
a
buddy,
and
I
went
down
to
the
senior
center
the
boise
senior
center
and
got
introduced
to
pickleball
what
the
heck
is
pickleball?
M
How
am
I
going
to
learn
to
play
pickleball?
Well,
you
guys
did
such
a
great
job.
You
provided
me
with
a
paddle.
You
gave
me
a
ball
to
play
with.
You
gave
me
a
space
in
which
to
do
it.
Okay,
that's
fabulous!
So
it
cost
me
nothing
all
right!
So
I
got
hooked
on
this
game
because,
as
diana
said,
you
could
play
and
you
didn't
hurt
afterwards.
M
So
that's
my
that's
my
origin
story
and
I
guess
the
question
I
have
is:
why
are
we
here?
We
are
here
because
you
guys,
as
an
organization,
have
been
so
successful
in
promoting
the
sport.
You
know
you
double
striped,
some
courts.
That
was
great.
M
M
We
had
two
nets,
two
portable
nets
that
the
the
club
owns
and
we
had
10
people
waiting
all
those
court.
All
six
courts
were
full
and
we
had
10
people
waiting
that
was
at
8
20
this
morning.
Okay,
so
I'm
here
to
push
for
the
for
the
concept
of
the
the
conversion
to
six,
because
I
think
that's
what
we
need-
and
I
have
several
reasons
for
that.
M
I
think
if
we
make
the
conversion
to
six,
it's
going
to
be
the
first
step
in
addressing
the
numerical
imbalance
between
the
number
of
tennis
courts
and
the
number
of
pickleball
courts.
The
second
item
I
would
say
is:
it
would
be
a
positive
step
in
equalizing
the
geographic
distribution
of
the
courts,
because
there's
none
on
the
east
side
all
right.
M
And,
finally,
I
would
say
it's
going
to
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
very
small
number
of
courts
we
have
and
it's
going
to
be
done
in
a
very
cost,
effective
manner
for
under
ten
thousand
dollars.
So
my
hope
tonight
is
that
the
we
have
demonstrated
that
the
city's
foresight
has
fostered
the
growth
of
pickleball,
which
put
a
heavy
demand
on
the
existing
facilities.
Yesterday,
we
created
it
marina
will
sit
down.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
A
I
appreciate
it.
Here's
what
I'll
do
I'll
just
give
away
when
you've
got
like
30
seconds
left
to
give
people
some
time
to
to
wrap
up
next
is
jane,
hostini
and
jane.
Is
a
former
neighbor
of
mine?
Welcome,
jane.
N
O
I
am
in
favor
of
and
fully
support,
converting
the
two
tennis
courts
at
eagle
rock
to
six
dedicated
pickleball
courts.
These
courts
are
desperately
needed
in
the
east
end
right
now.
There
are
only
four
dedicated
pickleball
courts,
east
of
50th
street
west
and
those
courts
are
at
manitou
park
compared
to
the
number
of
tennis
courts.
O
I
was
there
a
little
later
than
steve,
but
what
I
saw
this
morning,
all
seven
courts
were
in
use
and
I
counted
twelve
paddles
lined
up
on
the
right
side
and
five
paddles
on
the
left.
That
is
a
total
of
seventeen
paddles
seven
quarts
times
four
people,
28
players
plus
plus
17,
waiting
to
play
a
total
of
at
least
45
players
at
magnitude
this
morning,
and
this
has
been
a
typical
day.
Lately
it
is
becoming
the
norm,
as
you
can
imagine,
wait
times
can
be
very
long.
O
This
morning
a
person
told
me
that
she
waited
30
minutes
before
she
even
got
to
play
her
first
game.
Why
do
I
play
pickleball?
I
play
because
it
is
so
much
fun.
It
is
a
great
sport
and
I
love
it
I
play
because
it
gets
me
outdoors
and
provides
me
so
much
needed
exercise
and
that
we
all
need
it
keeps
us
active
and
healthy.
O
But
most
of
all
I
love
playing
pickleball
for
the
social
aspects
it
provides
me.
I
have
made
many
new
friends
from
playing.
I
live
alone
and
I
look
forward
going
to
manitou
five
to
six
days
a
week
to
play
and
seeing
my
pickleball
friends.
It
is
a
great
group
of
people
so
very
friendly
and
happy
people
on
some
days.
If
I
am
feeling
down
or
lonely,
I
drive
to
manitou
and
just
walking
up
to
the
park.
My
mood
is
lifted
instantly.
O
O
P
Q
Q
My
husband
ken
and
I
moved
to
warm
springs
village
in
2020
from
burley,
idaho
and
we're
retired
and
avid
pickleball
players.
We
each
play
five
or
six
times
a
week.
One
of
my
concerns.
Moving
to
boise,
the
big
city
from
a
small
town
was
meeting
people,
I'm
happy
to
say
that
through
the
pickleball
community,
I
have
found
a
warm
and
welcoming
environment
in
boise
and
especially
in
the
east
end.
Q
The
one
disadvantage
of
living
in
the
east
end
is
because
we
play
so
often
and
our
only
dedicated
courts
are
managed
to
is
that
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
playing
spots
to
play.
While
the
group
that
plays
at
manage,
who
is
wonderful,
the
courts
are
often
crowded
with
many
people
waiting
as
you've
been
hearing
eagle
rock
is
a
park
closest
to
our
home
about
three
minutes
away.
Q
Q
This
would
more
than
double
the
courts
that
we
have
available,
which
would
help
relieve
the
crowding.
I
also
want
to
mention
the
potential
loss
of
the
two
tennis
courts.
While
I
support
any
and
all
activities
for
adults,
most
of
the
parks
in
the
east
end
that
I've
been
to
with
my
grandchildren,
because
we
try
to
find
all
of
the
different
play
areas
do
have
dedicated
tennis
courts.
Q
Q
R
Chair,
if
I
might
take
a
moment,
I
just
want
to
welcome
and
I'm
so
sorry
what
was
your
name
again.
R
The
ann
capil
burley's,
my
hometown,
and
so
I
I
very
much
very
happily
welcome
you
to
the
city
of
trees
and
thank
you
so
much
for
getting
engaged
in
what
you
care
about
here
in
the
city.
So
welcome.
S
Hi
ken.
S
1468
south
boulder
view
in
warm
springs
village.
You
just
heard
from
my
wife
and
as
usual
she
expressed
some
of
her
thoughts
more
eloquently
and
effectively
than
I
can
so
mostly.
I
just
want
to
second
some
of
what
she
said.
I
guess
the
one
thing
I
would
say
or
try
to
emphasize
is
there's
a
as
a
number
of
us
will.
I
think,
testify
today.
There's
like
great
deal
of
unmet
demand
for
pickleball
around
here,
and
this
seems
to
be
to
move
to
the
six
courts
at
eagle
rock.
S
Would
I
provide
an
opportunity
for
low
cost
and
low
impact
to
help
reduce
that
blog
jam
that
we
experience
when
we
go
to
play
pickleball?
So
we
appreciate
your
consideration.
Thank
you.
U
I
wanted
to
tell
everybody
basically
the
benefits
of
pickleball
for
the
older
generation
and
I've
always
played
sports
of
one
type
or
another,
and,
as
we
got
older,
we
couldn't
afford
to
play
a
lot
of
golf
and
we
were
looking
for
something
and
found
pickleball
and
it
has
allowed
us
to
stay
active
and
to
be
able
to
play
at
all
levels.
U
U
It
helps
keep
us
young
and
helps
us
to
maintain
our
health.
We
cannot
wait
another
three
to
five
years
for
new
courts
that
might
be
built.
Some
of
us
may
not
be
around
that
long,
and
sometimes
our
health
doesn't
hold
out
the
two
tennis
courts
that
we
can
convert
into
six
pickleball
courts
would
help
immensely
to
offset
the
growing
numbers
of
players
looking
for
a
place
to
play
on
the
east
side
of
town,
there
are
numerous
tennis
courts
all
over
the
city.
We
were
only
asking
for
two
of
them
to
convert
into
six
pickleball
courts.
U
V
Hi,
my
name
is
larry
messmer,
I'm
working
on
my
70th
70th
year
as
a
boise
native
I've
seen
a
lot
of
growth
from.
V
I'm
sorry,
that's
okay,
1600
sunrise,
ram,
boise,
idaho
83705.
great!
Thank
you
and
I've
seen
a
lot
of
growth
in
boise
from
35
000
to
over
450
000
people.
I've
seen
a
lot
of
tennis
facilities.
Courts
go
in
and
very
limited
on
the
pickleball,
I'm
in
strong
in
favor
of
converting
these
two
courts
into
six
pickleball
courts
and.
P
V
Think
it's
so
good
for
the
health
and
the
community
and
social
events
and
stuff
there
and
somehow,
if
we
could
take
the
emotion
out
of
the
equation,
I
think
it's
pretty
much
a
no-brainer
to
spend
less
than
eight
thousand
dollars
to
to
make
the
conversion
versus
fifty
thousand
dollars
a
piece
for
for
new
new
courts.
And
that's
that's
my
appeal.
P
A
Okay,
lainey
compton.
W
My
name
is
lainey
compton.
I
live
at
1305,
south
leadville,
boise
83706.,
I'm
a
tennis
player.
I've
been
playing
tennis
since
I
was
in
high
school
when
practicing
for
tennis
league
here
in
boise,
east
boise
last
fall.
I
never
one
time
waited
for
a
court
not
once,
but
I'm
also
a
pickleball
player,
so
I've
played
pickleball
for
about
the
past
four
or
five
years.
W
W
W
It
is
a
multi-generational
sport,
as
we've
heard
it
brings
people
of
all
ethnicities
together.
That's
what
I
love
about.
Boise,
not
everybody,
looks
like
me.
We
need
some
diversity
and
some
inclusion.
It
brings
people
of
different
socioeconomic
standings
together
people
with
different
emotional
and
intellectual
abilities
and
isn't
that
the
culture
we
want
for
boise.
We.
I
want
that
and
I'm
sure
you
want
that
so
the
inequality
of
the
courts.
If
you
live
on,
the
east
side,
like
I
do,
I
think,
is
pretty
staggering
so
to
convert
the
courts
from
two
tennis
to
six.
W
Pickleball
really
makes
a
lot
of
sense
because
it's
probably
going
to
be
years
before
we
really
have
the
funds
to
build
six
courts
or
more
without
doing
a
conversion,
so
I
just
think
it's
economical,
it's
equitable
and
I
support
the
two
tennis
to
six
pickleball
conversion
today.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
I
I'm
the
oddball,
my
name
is
carrie
ellen
elliott.
I
live
at
1309,
east
lewis,
street
in
the
east
end.
I
am
a
tennis
player
and
I
thank
you
for
your
time.
I
served
on
the
boise
city
comprehensive
plan
subcommittee
in
the
90s.
A
key
objective
of
that
plan
was
to
provide
small
neighborhood
parks
and
larger
multi-purpose
parks
or
regional
parts
for
larger
group
or
sports
activities
kudos
to
the
administrators
commissioners
and
employees
that
vested
in
that
plan
and
continue
to
do
so.
Today,
tennis
and
pickleball
are
growing
sports.
I
I
As
I'm
talking
about
neighborhood
park
here,
eagle
rock
is
functioning
as
intended.
Now
the
park
parking
lot
picnic
area,
bathrooms,
playground
and
courts
are
conveniently
clustered
on
one
end.
Two
courts
in
question
are
properly
scaled
for
a
neighborhood
park.
Uses
drop
in
first
come
first
served
and
I
would
hate
to
see
that
change.
My
husband
and
I
played
this
morning.
We
hopped
on
our
bikes,
we
drove
down
there.
We
hit
some
balls,
we
did
some
drills
and
we
came
home.
I
Pickleball
is
a
party
lots
of
people,
lots
of
noise
lots
of
cars,
and
all
of
that
is
great
and
tons
of
fun,
but
it
is
an
activity
better
suited
to
a
park
that
can
absorb
it,
where
any
negative
impact
or
other
users
or
neighbors
is
it's
remote.
Converting
these
courts
to
pickleball
satisfies
no
one.
You
have
heard
it
today.
They
need
a
place
to
play.
I
It
doesn't
satisfy
the
pickleball
players,
tennis
players
or
the
neighborhood
three
things
in
order
to
preserve
eagle
rock
park
and
accommodate
both
tennis
and
pickleball
and
ensure
the
pickleball
community
will
have
an
appropriate
place
to
play.
I
recommend
the
commission
consider
the
following
strategy
options.
One
and
three
are
basically
the
same.
I
P
X
Can
you
yeah?
I
go
perfect.
Thank
you,
yeah,
I'm,
not
a
math
major
psychology.
Actually,
so
max
mathens
necessarily
hasn't
been
my
strength,
but
I
think
round.
Ballpark
numbers,
127,
tennis,
courts
and
19
designated
pickleball
courts
says
it
all
in
terms
of
equity
fairness
and
if
that's,
what
we're
looking
at
and
really
and
you've
heard
it
already.
X
This
is
a
community
activity.
It
really
does
serve
the
community.
We
have
people
of
all
ages,
backgrounds
ethnicities,
as
it
has
been
mentioned
out
there
and
to
to
follow
up
on
the
previous
presenter
speaker.
It
is
a
party
in
a
sense
and
it's
a
community
get-together
every
day,
and
it's
happening
right
here
in
boise.
We
just
don't
have
enough
places
to
do
it.
So
thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank
you
for
considering
this
and
I
would
vote
for
the
six
designated
pickleball
courts
at
eagle
rock.
Y
A
Shelley,
just
sorry
to
interrupt.
I've
got
here
a
number
one:
five
people
that
have
bpc
listed
as
they're
representing.
So
can
you
tell
me
what
that
means
and
then
we'll
have
one.
If
that's
an
organization
we'll
have
one
person
have
10
minutes
on
behalf
of.
Y
Y
And
my
zip
code
is
83716..
Y
Y
I'm
a
taxpayer
and
my
taxes
have
paid
for
these
public
courts.
We
should
have
equal
rights
to
use
them.
We're
only
asking
for
two
percent
of
the
available
tennis
courts.
Most
of
the
tennis
courts
I
drive
by
daily
are
filled
with
are
not
filled
with
tennis
players
but
they're
pickleball
players
of
all
ages,
since
there's
literally
no
time
table
or
funding
for
new
pickleball
courts.
At
this
time
it's
only
fair
and
equitable
that
these
six
courts
be
made
into
pickleball
courts.
Now,
thank
you
for
your
consideration.

Hi,
I'm
debbie,
gould

boise

I
am
totally
in
favor
of
converting
the
two
tennis
courts
into
six
pickleball
courts
being
fairly
new
to
boise
and
moving
here
right
before
the
pandemic.
Pickleball
has
been
my
life.
It
has
made
me
mentally
and
socially
interactive
with
other
people,
and
I
feel
that
with
the
growth
of
the
community
and
the
youngsters,
I
know
that
they're
all
taking
it
in
junior
high
school
now.
I
think
it
is
imperative
that
we
pursue
turning
the
six
courts
turning
into
six
courts.
Thank
you.

I'm
southeast
boise
I've
been
playing
for
10
years.
It
keeps
me
very
active,
like
everybody
else,
I
not
everybody
else.
I
played
tennis
for
20
years.
I
played
racquetball
for
10
years
and
I
love
pickleball.
I
hope
I
could
play
pickleball
for
20
more.
AA
AB
I
also
represent
myself:
okay
thanks,
alice
informal,
I
live
at
2550.
East
warm
springs,
avenue
83712
in
the
warm
springs
villages,
so
I'm
an
eastender
also
thanks
parks
and
rec,
and
all
of
you
for
considering
the
option
of
six
pickleball
courts
at
eagle
rock.
I
support
that.
I
use
eagle
rock
a
lot.
I
am.
I
met
my
guy
at
eagle
rock,
I
hike
eagle
rock
my
dog
and
I
have
run
around
eagle
rock
like
nobody's
business
on
leash,
but
and
I
have
played
pickleball
there
quite
a
bit.
AB
We
take
our
own
net
and
we
play
there
and
if
there
weren't
people
playing
there
this
morning,
it's
most
likely
because
I
think
it's
parks
and
recs
or
it's
something
through
fort
boise,
where
they
have
pickleball
classes
for
children,
monday
or
tuesday,
wednesday
and
thursday,
and
maybe
they've
just
stopped.
So
if
we
know
that
now
we'll
be
back
to
playing
pickleball
there.
AB
AB
AB
I
advocate,
of
course,
for
the
six
pickleball
courts,
because
it's
kind
of
a
fair
thing
to
do
I
mean
for
these
taxpayers
for
this
community.
I
heard
from
parks
and
recs
that
was
so
nice
to
have
the
meeting
with
us
all
on
july
6th
about
wanting
people
to
recreate.
This
is
a
recreational
sport
that
again
you've
heard.
I
mean
it's
all
encompassing
it
actually
builds
community
because
pickleball
doesn't
you
know
require
that
you
come
with
your
own
set
of
players.
AB
AB
AC
P
AC
And
I
retired
in
2020
and
as
things
started
to
normalize
after
the
covet
epidemic
and
we
were
allowed
to
start
going
out
again,
I
was
looking
for
something
to
do
and
I
discovered
boise
pickleball
through
parks
and
rec,
and
took
some
lessons
at
the
lessons.
Not
only
people
my
age
were
there,
but
people
older,
younger,
different
ethnicities,
different
backgrounds
and
I'd,
say
75
percent
of
the
people
I
took
lessons
with
are
still
playing.
AC
A
AD
AD
So
I
want
to
thank
park
and
wreck
for
being
here
and
considering
this
you're
trying
to
keep
all
the
stakeholders
happy,
and
I
appreciate
that
I
just
hope
we
remember
this
is
a
hearing
on
eagle
rock
park,
not
about
how
great
pickleball
is
and
how
they
need
more
courts,
because
it's
so
obvious
they
need
a
lot
more
courts
for
sure,
I'm
a
tennis
player
and
a
pickleball
player.
AD
I
use
the
tennis
courts
at
eagle
rock
park
to
practice
my
serve
hit
against
the
backboard
and
practice
with
friends.
I
belong
to
the
boise
rocket
club,
but
it's
hard
to
get
courts.
You
have
to
pay
for
the
courts
and
so
to
play
with
friends
or
practice
my
serve.
I
can
just
hop
on
my
bike
and
be
in
uncle
rock
park
in
a
few
minutes,
and
I
don't
want
to
take
the
whole
court
at
the
club
to
just
play
by
myself
or
with
a
friend
that's
what
local
parks
are
for.
AD
So
I
do
feel
strongly
that
we
should
not
pit
pickleball
players
and
tennis
players
against
each
other.
We're
all
people
that
love
to
go
out
have
fun
smack
a
ball
around
meet
people
and
get
some
exercise.
That's
the
great
thing
that
we
have
in
common.
We
should
not
be
opponents.
We
all
want
more
courts
for
pickleball.
The
question
is:
do
we
want
to
rob
peter
to
pay
paul?
We
take
existing
amenities
out
of
all
our
local
parks,
one
by
one.
AD
Okay,
that
don't
affect
the
quality
of
life
for
the
neighbors
who
just
want
some
peace
on
their
deck
at
night.
However,
it
seems
this
world
is
not
ideal
and
at
the
moment
the
parks
and
rec
department
has
chosen
to
spend
their
money
on
other
projects,
and
I
would
hope
that,
given
the
demand
for
pickleball
courts
by
the
public
that
the
new
pickleball
courts
do
get
put
into
the
budget
for
next
year,
it
seems
to
be
quite
the
priority
here.
The
sport
is
only
going
to
grow
and
this
demand
is
not
going
to
go
away.

AF
My
name
is
joe
pearson.
I
too
lived
out
in
southeast
boise
for
25
years.
Can
you
state
your

it's

harris
ranch.
Thank.
P
AF
The
point
I'd
like
to
make
is
that
boise
doesn't
have
enough
pickleball
courts
and
by
far
I
mean
by
a
big
amount,
because
I've
traveled
a
lot
of
places.
I've
gone
to
bend
oregon
I've
gone
down
to
st
george,
I've
gone
to
salt
lake
city
and
all
of
the
I'm
jealous
of
the
courts.
They
have,
they
have
way
more
courts,
they
have
bigger
complexes,
you
take
and
even
rupert
idaho,
they
just
put
in
nine
pickleball
courts.
AF
Rupert
idaho
is
40
times
smaller
than
boise.
So
if
you
scale
that
up
to
the
size
of
boise,
that's
360
pickleball
courts.
It's
amazing
how
many
pickleball
courts
they
have.
You
know
brigham
city,
utah,
20,
000
people
they
have
24
courts.
17
are
lighted,
two
have
have
bleachers
and
they're
set
up
for
for
for
championship
matches.
20
000
people
scale
that
up
to
the
size
of
boilies,
that's
like
boise
having
264
courts
and
and
boise
has
what
21
courts.
Well.
AF
In
my
book
we
only
have
less
than
half
of
that,
because
the
courts
out
at
hobble,
creek
everybody
I
talked
to
that
plays
at
hobble.
Creek
is
a
great
look
great
facility,
but
you
know
what
it's
it's:
a
half
a
mile
from
meridian
and
it's
a
half
a
mile
from
eagle.
So
the
people
that
play
out
at
hobble
creek
are
a
lot
of
people
to
play
in
eagle
and
and
from
eagle
and
meridian.

AG
My
name
is
george
allen.
Seven
five,
zero
south
granite
wave
was
the
idea.
Eight
three
seven
one
two,
so
I'm
with
in
the
half
mile.
This
is
my
first
time
testing
buying
near
test
in
front
of
any
kind
of
committee
and
I'm
an
avid
tennis
player
and
I'm
gonna
stay.
Even
though
I
want
to
leave
right
now.
AG
I
don't
think
I
knew
what
I
was
getting
myself
into.
I
wasn't
going
to
testify.
I
was
just
going
to
write
something
up
and
send
it
until
last
night
I
was
hitting
against
the
board,
as
I
often
do
a
round
dusk
late
evening
after
I
eat
dinner
with
my
family.
I
bike
over
and
hit
against.
The
board
is
just
therapeutic
and
especially
if
the
sun
is
against
the
hills,
it's
the
most
peaceful
park.
AG
I
enjoyed
it
and
a
nice
lady
walked
by-
and
I
don't
know
if
she's
here,
because
if
she's
not,
she
got
me
into
something,
but
she
said
you
know
you
should
really
testify
tomorrow
at
four.
So
here
I
am,
and
I
thought
you
know
I
I
haven't
followed
it
too
much,
so
I
quickly
got
on
next
door
and
read
all
of
the
comments
and
realized.
I
usually
I
see
both
sides
of
issues
and
I
do
on
this
one,
and
I
thought
you
know.
The
only
thing
I
really
can
offer
is
my
personal
perspective.
AG
Obviously
I
would
like
to
see
an
opportunity
to
play
some
tennis,
even
if
it
were
one
court,
I
often
play
on
the
off
hours,
and
so
yesterday
I
played
against
a
guy
that
lives
on
warm
springs.
He
biked
over.
He
had
a
45
minute
break.
We
played
in
96
degree
heat.
There
was
nobody
there,
but
this
morning
I
hit
with
my
wife
and
my
daughter
and
the
eight
pickleball
courts
were
full
and
they
were
receiving
lessons
you
know.
AG
Obviously
I
would
like
some
kind
of
compromise
where
there's
one
court
that
could
be
available
to
me
to
hit
with
my
up
top
my
twelve-year-old
teaching,
my
eight-year-old.
I
have
visions
of
my
family
playing.
I
do
play
with
about
five
people
that
are
in
the
community
there
most
of
the
time.
If
those
courts
were
committed
to
pickleball
players
and
and
they
were
taking
the
courts
and
there
weren't
room
for
me,
I
could
accept
that
and
understand
that
and
I
can
go
find
a
court
somewhere
else.
You
know,
but
the
problem
is.
AG
I
do
see
both
sides
of
the
issue
and
I
understand
that
you
guys
have
a
much
bigger,
broader
perspective
than
I
do.
I
have
a
much
more
informed
perspective
now
from
the
pickleball
community
and
when
I
see
the
numbers
my
wife
gave
me
this
hat
that
I
was
talking
to
the
gentleman
about
she
is
from
rupert.
We
were
there
last
weekend
and
I
saw
the
nine
beautiful
pickleball
courts.
I
would
love
for
the
pickleball
community
to
have
that.
AG
I
would
love
to
have
one
court
that
I
could
hit
in
the
off
hours
at
grant
at
eagle
rock,
and
I
understand
that.
Sometimes
that
can't
happen,
and
I
can
understand.
Sometimes
compromise
is
best
and
I
understand.
Sometimes
tough
decisions
must
be
made.
I
would
love
to
have
a
court
that
I
could
hit
on
with
my
family
and
with
my
local
friends
on
off
hours,
and
I
also
hope
the
pickleball
community
gets
all
of
the
courts
they
need.
I
have
purchased
a
pickleball
set
and
hit
with
my
family.
AH
AH
AH
AH
AH

If
eagle
rock
converts
these
two
tennis
courts
to
six
pickleball
courts,
any
tennis
player
displaced,
there
still
has
tremendous
access
to
courts
according
to
parks
and
rec.
There
is
no
option
on
the
books
for
any
other
dedicated
pickleball
courts
in
boise.
So
this
is
it
for
us.
This
is
our
only
chance
to
get
a
small
number
of
additional
dedicated
courts
so
that
the
crowds
of
players
can
be
dispersed
a
bit
and
wait
times
can
be
reduced.
AH
AI
AI
and
at
that
point
my
knees
were
shot,
couldn't
play
tennis
still
teach
tennis,
which
I
do
now,
I'm
relegated
to
pickleball.
I
don't
say
that
in
a
bad
way.
It's
a
great
sport,
I'm
up
here
today
to
tell
you
that
we
need
a
dedicated
facility.
AI
AI
You
do
have
some
issues
with
the
neighbors
nearby
or
you
could
build
your
own,
a
winner
in
san
diego
in
the
winter
months,
and
they
recently
spent
three
and
a
half
million
dollars
in
carlsbad
to
build
a
facility
for
pickleball
six
courts,
three
and
a
half
million
dollars.
AI
AI
AI
This
is
a
multi-generational
sport.
Both
my
adult
children
play
it.
In
fact,
I'm
teaching
out
in
surprise
valley,
children,
adults,
both
tennis
pickleball,
but
when
you
take
a
60
by
120
foot
court,
which
is
a
tennis
court
and
you
put
pickleball
lines
on
it
and
you
have
one
pickleball,
what
happens
is
when
the
pickleball
has
been
hit?
You
have
to
walk
60
feet
to
pick
it
up,
so
it's
a
slow
game,
so
it's
better
to
have
a
dedicated
facility.
T
Hi,
it's
jessica
monkly.
I
live
at
7623,
west
snowberry
drive
in
boise
83709
and
I
can
just
say
thank
you
for
listening
to
all
of
us.
We
really
appreciate
your
time
and
consideration
and
I
can
just
echo
what
everyone
else
says.
I
am
pretty
new
to
pickleball.
I've
been
sucked
into
it
by
my
father
who
you
will
listen
to
and
he
will
be
very
excited
and
I
just
want
to
say.
T
I've
also
started
to
teach
to
my
son
when
he's
willing
to
listen,
which
isn't
very
often,
but
it
is
generational
and
it
is
growing
and
there
is
definitely
a
need
for
more
courts.
I
can
say
when
I
have
gone
to
other
locations
that
have
tennis
courts.
I
don't
typically
see
tennis
players.
Obviously
I'm
not
there
24
7.
T
So
I
can't
say
if
there
are
tennis
players
there
sometimes,
but
when
I
have
gone,
and
I
only
play
once
or
twice
a
week
if
I'm
lucky,
because
I'm
still
working
I'm
of
the
younger
pickleball
population
and
even
just
those
few
times
that
I'm
there,
I
do
not
see
them
being
utilized
by
tennis
players.
So
I'm
very
much
in
advocation
for
changing
to
these
six
courts
and
I
look
forward
to
using
them.

This
is
an
important
time
and
opportunity
to
build
six
dedicated
courts
in
southeast
boise
at
the
eagle
rock
park,
which
my
understanding
is
not
surrounded
by
homes.
I
know
for
a
certainty
that
it's
not
going
to
take
long
before,
there's
going
to
be
an
even
greater
demand
in
southeast
boise
for
dedicated
courts.
All
you
have
to
do
is
look
at
harris

see
the
phenomenal
growth
out
there
to
know
that
there
is
going

be
more

Hello
good
evening,
my
name
is
kathy
weimer.
My
address
is
2251
east
warm
springs
avenue
in
boise
83712,
I'm
a
neighbor
that
lives
right
there
by
eagle
park,
okay,
and
I
think
that
we
need
to
do
some
compromising.
I
think
that's
what
the
society
is
all
about
is
compromise
and
doing
just
a
small,
tiny
bit
of
equalization.
AK
Okay,
we're
talking
about
right
now,
four
dedicated
courts
from
36th
street
all
the
way
east
all
the
way
south
all
the
way
north.
To
me,
that's
about
10
miles
by
10
mile.
Well,
maybe
something
close
to
that,
but
we
need
that.
We
need
it
in
the
neighborhood
okay,
many
of
us
don't
have
18
minutes
18
months,
18
days
to
sit
there
and
wait
for
our
next
game.
Okay,
so
this
is
something
that's
long
overdue
and
well
needed,
and
really
it's
just
the
tip
of
the
iceberg.
You
guys
have
heard
it's
such
a
growing
sport.
AK
We
need
not
just
six
dedicated
courts,
we
need
at
least
60
dedicated
courts.
Okay,
you
know
many
have
talked
about
the
socialization,
the
the
mental
health,
the
physical
health.
Behind
me,
these
are
my
brothers
and
sisters.
Okay,
I
moved
here
three
years
ago.
I
don't
know
anybody,
I
don't
have
any
friends,
I
don't
have
any
family
here.
These
are
my
brothers
and
sisters
here.
Okay,
I
need
them.
I
need
them
for
the
socialization,
the
emotional
health
and
for
the
physical
exercise.
AK
AK
Okay,
we
need
it:
okay,
there's
not
homes
rate
smack.
Next
to
it,
I
live
in
the
neighborhood.
Okay,
we
really
need
this.
It
is
it's
just
the
tip
of
the
iceberg.
It's
just
a
small
thing.
We
can
do
to
start
it
in
the
right
direction,
and
I
thank
you
all
for
your
time
and
please
please.
I
ask
that
you
try
to
seek
democracy
and
something
a
little
more
equitable
to
help
relieve
the
growing
pains
of
the
fastest
growing
sport
in
america.
Thank
you.
AL
Else
has
been
saying
I,
I
support
the
conversion
of
these
courts
to
six
dedicated
courts,
but
I
feel
bad
that
we're
taking
away
the
tennis
courts.
Why
are
we
in
that
position
after
hearing
about
some
of
these
amazing
courts
in
these
other
tiny
little
towns?
It's
like.
We
really
need
to
look
to
the
future,
and
I
know
right
now.
AL
We
need
the
courts
and
I
do
support
them,
and
I
and
I
I
want
it
to
happen,
but
I
think
we
need
to
look
at
the
bigger
picture
somehow
and
figure
out
how
we
can
get
more
courts
without
taking
from
an
existing
park
which
is
very
treasured
and
loved,
and
I
and
I
empathize
with
that
completely
so
I
don't
think
I'm
going
to
read
this
whole
letter
because
it
basically
is
stating
what
everyone
else
has
stated.
Pickleball
is
fantastic.
AL
So
welcoming
this
is
my
community,
I'm
you
know
new
to
the
area
as
well,
but
I've
been
playing
for
about
five
years.
I
grew
up
playing
tennis,
love
tennis
as
well.
This
should
not
be
about
tennis
versus
pickleball
and
unfortunately
I
think
the
decision
does
have
to
we
have
to
remove
the
emotion
and
just
make
the
decision
based
on
the
numbers
which
speak
for
themselves,
as
you
have
have
heard.
So
I
thank
you
for
your
consideration
and
it's
going
to
be
a
tough
decision.
P
Thank
you,
vixenmink.
G
L
L
You
hey
my
my
name
is
victor
cemank.
I
live
at
1064
east
crawl
street
just
next
to
her,
and
it's
only
about
half
mile
also
my
kids.
Two
families
live
in
the
same
east
end
part
or
in
east
end
area,
so
we
are
in
the
east
end.
I
spent
a
lot
of
time
preparing
this,
so
you're
gonna
have
to
listen
to
it.
I
guess,
like
my
wife,
I
support
the
sixth
pickleball
court
option
and
here's
the
reason
why
pickleball
is
it's
really
gonna
be
great,
I
think.
L
Even
for
the
east
end,
I
know
people
are
concerned
and
I
understand
that
it's
hard
to
lose
your
court.
If
you
had
a
tennis
court
and
I
would
be
in
the
same
situation
they
but
pickleball
is
easy
to
learn.
East
end
residents
can
play
competitive
fun
games
the
first
time
they
play
their
skills
will
will
grow
and
so
will
the
fun
quickly.
L
It's
welcoming
you
can
go
to
a
tennis
court.
You
can't
go
to
a
tennis
court
and
just
join
a
game
you
can
at
pickleball.
All
you
have
to
do
is
show
up,
and
so
it
doesn't
matter
you.
It
means
that
it
means
that
local
residents,
the
east
end
residents,
can
just
stop
in
and
be
able
to
play
almost
any
time.
L
Pickleball
players
will
help
you
learn
if
you
want
to
learn
how
to
play.
All
you
have
to
do
is
show
up
with
a
good
attitude.
These
folks
are
all
all
more
than
willing
to
help
you.
You
know:
we've
loaned
rackets
to
people,
you
name
them
and
not
just
me
or
us
all
folks,
all
over
the
play,
pickleball
it's
accessible
for
all.
We
got
people
with
limited
mobility.
You
see
us
all
limping
up
and
crawling
up.
L
We
can
all
use
it.
We
can
all
play.
There's
no
need
to
have
a
group,
you
can
you
don't
have
to
find
a
partner
to
schedule
a
pickleball
game,
like
you
may,
for
a
tennis
game
residents
can
just
go
to
the
courts
and
they'll
likely
be
able
to
find
a
game.
L
It's
family
friendly,
because
it's
easy
to
learn.
So
it's
it's
got
a
easy
learning
curve.
Family
members
of
all
ages
can
have
fun
together.
In
fact,
the
average
age
of
pickleball
players
continues
to
drop.
Younger
age
players
are
now
the
fastest
growing
group
and
it
sounds
like
they're
teaching
them
over
there
right
now.
L
L
We
get
more
bang
for
our
buck
in
the
neighborhood.
We
could
have
six
courts
with
four
people
playing
in
the
same
space
with
four
people
playing
in
each
ones,
or
you
can
have
the
two
tennis
courts
where
usually
it's
two
people
that
are
playing
that's
a
six
times
more
growth,
tennis
players
and
unfortunately
they
have
to
move
and
give
up
something,
but
they
do
still
have
nearby
options.
There's
six
courts
at
fort
boise
those
courts
are
actually
closer
to
a
large
percentage
of
the
east
end
residents.
L
If
you
come
driving
off
of
shaw
mountain
road,
those
are
actually
closer
than
this
park
in
the
flats
area.
That's
actually
pretty
much
the
same,
and
at
roosevelt
school,
that's
pretty
much
where
it
divides.
Half
and
half
there's
room
for
advancement.
Obviously,
entry
level
is
easy,
but
you
can
take
time
to
master
the
skill,
so
it's
a
lifetime
sport
and
we're
already
behind
the
curve
at
boise.
We
would
be
lucky
in
the
east
end
to
actually
have
this
facility
in
our
area
where
we
can
all
play.
Thank.
AN
AN
AN
I
get
approached
by
many
parents
after
the
session
is
over
asking
me
what
I
recommend
for
their
child
to
continue
tennis
lessons
city
lessons
are
filled
up
for
the
rest
of
the
summer.
I
would
recommend
boise
racket
and
swim
club,
but
their
wait
list
is
overflowing
eagle.
Tennis
club
also
has
a
wait
list,
plus
the
distance
factor.
Crank,
creek
and
hillcrest
are
also
country
clubs
that
I
would
not
recommend
to
the
general
public
because
of
the
high
cost.
What
is
left
the
city
courts?
AN
Kids
need
to
have
available
places
to
play
tennis
and
practice
with
friends
and
family.
Tennis
is
a
sport
that
requires
a
lot
of
practice
and
for
children
in
this
community
options
like
eagle
rock
park,
are
vital
for
the
development
of
tennis.
I
am
lucky
that
eagle
rock
park
is
so
close
to
my
house,
and
then
it
was
able
to
carry
me
into
my
college
career
of
playing
tennis.
AN
I
hope
that
other
kids
in
my
neighborhood
will
continue
to
have
this
same
opportunity.
The
tennis
community
at
eagle
rock
park
is
very
disappointed
in
this
proposal.
I
understand
that
there
is
a
need
for
pickleball
courts,
but
the
truth
is
is
that
there
is
a
need
for
way
more
pickleball
courts
than
just
two
or
even
six
converting
eagle
rock
park
courts
to
is
a
band-aid
approach.
AN
There
needs
to
be
a
place
where
people
can
play
pickleball
and
have
many
available
courts,
and
it
needs
to
be
in
a
place
that
isn't
subtracting
from
somewhere.
That
already
has
a
community
built
eagle
rock
park
is
extremely
valuable
to
the
neighbors
in
the
surrounding
area.
Adding
pickleball
courts
will
change
their
dynamic
of
the
park.
We
speaking
from
the
east
end
neighborhood,
do
not
want
cars
lined
up
along
the
road
leading
to
the
park.
We
do
not
want
the
loud
noise
of
pickleball
rockets
in
our
quiet
neighborhood.
AN
We
do
not
want
our
peaceful
neighborhood
park
to
be
disrupted.
We
speaking
from
the
tennis
community
of
boise
do
not
support
the
subtraction
of
tennis
courts
for
pickleball.
We
believe
that
we
should
not
be
pinned
against
pickleball
players
or
other
sports,
but
instead
there
should
be
opportunity
for
all.
We
believe
that
the
city
of
boise
needs
to
create
pickleball
courts
elsewhere,
whereas
not
subtracting
from
community
from
other
individuals
in
their
sport.
AO
I
grew
up
in
tacoma,
washington,
inner
city
tacoma,
washington,
during
the
60s
and
70s.
We
were
poor.
My
mom
left
and
my
dad
had
a
high
difficult
time
functioning.
It
was
because
of
tacoma
school
districts,
my
teachers,
my
coaches,
that
lifted
all
of
us
up.
We
were
in
my
elementary
school.
I
was
the
minority
five
percent
white
95
percent
black.
AO
All
of
us
struggled
together
and
this
is
during
civil
rights.
If
any
of
you
remember
that
time,
it
was
a
lot
of
pain
and
anger
racial
division,
but
when
I
got
to
go
back
to
my
local
junior
high,
we
desegregated
and
bust
to
the
minority
schools,
when
we
went
back
to
my
local
junior
high,
there
was
still
a
lot
of
minority,
but
it
was
mostly
white
and
I
knew
when
we
moved
there.
AO
I
knew
when
we
moved
there
that
the
rules
would
be
in
my
favor
and
not
with
my
other
friends,
even
though
we
were
both
poor,
even
though
we
both
came
from
hard
times
right
now,
look
around
here,
we're
all
pretty
much
privileged.
Here
I
was
lucky.
I
had
great
teachers,
I
got
involved
in
sports
and
those
coaches
made
me
feel
like
I
was
worth
something
they
gave
me
value.
They
gave
us
all
value,
no
matter
what
color
we
were.
AO
I
married
that
other
psych
major
back
there
41
years
ago.
We
both
got
masters
in
counseling
him
and
school
counseling
me
and
mental
health
counseling.
My
specialty
was
working
with
women
with
sexual
assault
and
then
I
got
did
guidance
counseling.
Our
whole
lives
have
been
spent,
lifting
other
people
up
those
less
fortunate
than
ourselves.
We
were
lucky.
I
was
lucky
those
programs,
so
social
programs,
those
teachers,
those
coaches
changed
my
life
every
day
of
my
life.
That's
what
gets
me
up
in
the
morning.
AO
How
can
I
reflect
back
people's
greatness
because
I
didn't
feel
great
growing
up,
but
I
figured
it
out.
I
figured
out
that
I
have
the
same
amount
of
value
as
everyone
else
in
this
room
and
all
the
people
that
can't
be
here
because
they're
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
pay
their
rents,
how
they
are
trying
to
even
buy
food.
My
friend
carol
back
there.
She
works
at
the
food
bank
every
thursday
and
fills
boxes
full
of
food
so
that
people
can
eat
because
they
can't
afford
to
pay
for
their
rent
and
have
food.
AO
The
parks
represent.
All
of
us
you've
heard
about
my
friends,
my
new
family,
my
pickleball
family.
Here
they
are
here,
they
have
made
me,
feel
welcome.
They've
taught
me
pickleball
they've
encouraged
me,
I've
encouraged
them,
we've
cried
together,
we've
laughed
together,
that's
community,
pickleball
does
change
people's
lives
and
I
love
doing
it.
But
more
so
I
have
a
vision
that
we
can
use
it
to
raise
young
gals
up
in
our
community
gals
that
grew
up
in
difficult
situations.
Like
me,
I
know.
AP
AO
P
AQ
My
name
is
henry
pfeiffer:
2047
table
rock
road,
boise,
idaho
everything's,
pretty
much
been
said.
Everything
I
was
going
to
mention
has
been
said.
We
do
have
a
speaker
to
represent
the
club
he'll
be
up
here
and
probably
confirm
some
things
for
you.
The
thing
that
surprises
me
is
that
we
need
to
meet
like
this
and
have
a
have
a
meeting
like
this.
AQ
AQ
You
never
had
to
wait
in
any
of
those
other
sports
it
and
that's
why
I
say
it's
obvious
to
me
that
something
has
to
happen.
Something
has
to
be
done,
so
I
definitely
support
changing
a
court
that
now
could
be
used
for
pickleball
and
increase
the
availability
when
it's
really
not
taking
away
from
anything
in
the
in
the
area.
It's
it's
a
situation
where
there's
I
drive
from
table
rock
down
past
several
tennis
courts
every
day
and
the
majority
of
times
there's
no,
no
one
playing
on
those
courts,
there's
they're
empty.
AQ
So
I
would
really
encourage
the
commission
to
consider
changing
this
court,
this
this
eagle
rock
to
six
pickleball
courts,
but
that's
not
going
to
be
the
answer.
That's
just
kind
of
a
band-aid
for
the
problem.
A
AR
Hi,
I'm
donna
bogdan.
I
live
at
715.
West
elwood
drive
that's
over
near
ivy
park.
Oh
six,
okay,
oh
six,
I
drive
by
ivy
wild
park
several
times
a
day
and
I
always
marvel
those
courts.
Their
tennis
courts
are
empty
and
that
goes
for
the
many
many
other
tennis
courts
around
town.
I've
got
nothing
against
tennis
players.
AR
I
was
a
tennis
player.
I
can't
do
it
anymore,
I'm
one
of
the
converts
to
pickleball.
I
was
in
my
former
lifetime
as
a
mental
health,
professional
specializing
in
therapeutic
recreation.
I
studied
recreation
and
of
all
the
sports
I
have
played.
I
have
never
played
a
more
beneficial
socially
game
than
pickleball.
AR
I
used
to
play
tennis.
Okay,
you'd
get
a
friend
the
two
of
you.
You
go
down
and
play
tennis,
but
there's
never
this
group
camaraderie
and
this
acceptance
of
people
no
matter
what
their
disability,
no
matter,
what
their
age
coming
together.
It's
it's
just
amazing
and
I
think
that
you
know
we've
talked
a
lot
about
the
mental
health
benefits.
I
I'd
like
to
talk
about
the
addictive
benefits
of
pickleball,
probably
they're,
because
of
the
I
think
this
camaraderie,
the
ease
of
learning
the
sport
and
the
just
plain
fun
of
pickleball.
AR
I
I'd
sure
like
to
see
seniors
addicted
to
a
sport
rather
than
two
pills,
our
early
retirement
in
a
assisted
living
facility.
I
wish
we
think
of
more
things
like
this
and
folks
pickleball's
here
to
say
it's
not
like
stay
it's
not
like
the
hula
hoop
or
something
some
of
the
other
fads.
We've
all
seen.
You
know
coming
and
gone
in
our
lifetime
and
oh
as
far
as
noise,
I
live
close
enough
to
ivy
wild
park.
AR
I
hear
the
swimming
pool,
I
hear
the
you
know:
people
playing
softball
and
when
you
live
near
a
park
that
just
the
way
it
is
and
parking
I've
kind
of
looked
at
the
parking
over
there,
there
seems
to
be
a
lot
of
vacant
fields.
So
I
don't
really
think
those
are
valid
valid
complaints,
but
anyway,
I
hope
that
you
will
consider
doing
the
converting
those
courts
to
six
pickleball
courts.
I
think
we'll
get
the
best
bang
for
our
buck
as
a
city
and
go
a
long
way
into
providing
benefits
for
people
of
all
ages.

AS
Hi
I'm
patricia
day.
I
live
at
865,
west
sandstone,
lane
83702
and
before
I
tell
you
why
I
think
we
should
go
to
the
sixth
court
or
at
eagle
rock.
I
just
want
to
thank
you.
I've
lived
in
many
cities
throughout
the
united
states
and
nothing
gives
me
much
more
pleasure
than
having
my
guests
come
to
visit
me
at
my
home
and
go
to
the
parks
and
see
what
you
all
have
accomplished
here.
It's
just
unbelievable,
I
feel
like
I
died
and
went
to
heaven.
AS
AS
Yes,
I
agree
that
we
should
have
the
six
courts.
We
need
them.
It's
equitable
and
especially
as
a
very
senior
citizen,
the
mental
health
that
it
gives
me
a
shot
of
endorphins.
Every
time
I'm
out
there
playing
seeing
my
friends
visiting
and
just
having
fun
and
the
best
part
older
people
than
me
are
playing
and
it's
just
fun,
and
then
the
young
people
as
well.
I
love
it
and
I
just
thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank
you
for
all
you're
doing
for
our
wonderful
city.

these
little
bullet
points
to
talk
about,
but
of
course,
everybody's
already
covered
every
single
one
started
playing
pickleball
about
three
years
ago
and
same
with
the
way
I
said
it's
like
I
made
friends,
it's
social
and
it's
not
just
pickleball
friends.
This
friendship
extended
beyond
pickleball.
You
know
dinners
all
that
kind
of
stuff.
I
vote
for
the
six
pickleball
courts.
AT
You
can't
get
more
for
your
money.
If
you
put
in
the
sixth
book
of
all
courts,
they'll
be
used
constantly
I'm.
I
am
sad
about
the
pitting
tennis
against
pickleball,
but
this
is
the
option
we've
been
given
by
the
city
for
currently
so
six
pick
balls
is
my
vote.
That's
pretty
much
it!
Everybody
else
has
covered
everything
else.
I
mean
I
I
don't
know
what
more
people
can
say.
You're
going
to
keep
hearing
the
same
thing
over
and
over
I
will
say
I
was
at

Hello,
my
name
is
leanne
hume.
I
live
at
422,
bacon,
drive,
boise,
idaho,
83712,
I'm
glad
to
know
this
is
a
loving
and
gentle
group,
because
I
have
a
little
bit
of
a
different
philosophy
and
and
a
couple
of
things
to
offer.
That
might
be
a
little
bit
unique.
First
of
all,
I
think
someone
said
it
very
well
that
the
question
is
not
is
pickleball
courts
needed
that's
clear
and
it's
clear
that
it's
an
amazing
sport,
my
father-in-law
is
avid
player
as
well.
AU
AU
But
can
we
look
again-
and
maybe
it's
already
been
done
at
the
100
and
not
good
at
math,
more
or
more
that
have
not
been
converted
yet,
and
I
think
that's
the
big
question
here.
I've
owned
my
lot
on
bacon
drive,
which
backs
up
right
to
the
park
and
all
the
trails
for
25
years,
and
we
already
have
kind
of
a
band
shell
effect
there.
It
people
that
live
there
know
that
I
can
hear
the
walkie-talkies
at
the
women's
facility,
which
is
almost
to
the
bishop's
house.
AU
I
can
hear
living
on
a
prayer
every
time,
there's
a
a
wedding
at
the
bishop's
house,
and
it
ends
abruptly
at
10,
which
is
great.
All
the
concerts
are
botanical.
We
open
our
windows,
we
love
it.
We
we
hear
kids,
we
hear
dogs,
we
we
hear
everything
back
there
and
to
add
this
again
to
you
know
something
that
we
have
to
hear
until
nine
o'clock
at
night,
if
not
later
in
the
summer.
The
people
that
don't
that
don't
quit
is
is
is
just
kind
of
the
straw
that
breaks
the
camel's
back.
AU
I
I'm
not
passionate
about
it.
I
think
these
people
absolutely
have
a
passion
for
this.
They
should
they
should
have
more
courts.
I
don't
think
this
is
the
place
for
them
down
closer
to
the
bishop's
house.
There's
a
very
long
grassy
portion
there,
building
new
courts
down
at
the
very
end
with
landscaping
around
it
seems
like
it'd,
be
a
very
good
option:
it's
not
an
immediate
option,
but
that
would
be
away
from
homes.
AU
The
parking
is
really
difficult.
We
are
already
going
to
experience
a
narrowing
of
bacon
drive
it's
in
the
works
they're
going
to
expand
our
sidewalks.
AU
Hardly
anybody
has
garages
there,
so
everybody
parks
on
the
street
people
will
have
to
park
on
the
street
in
order
to
get
to
those
courts
which
will
come
right
by
my
house,
which
is
fine.
One
other
thing:
I'm
a
commercial
real
estate
broker
and
I
do
retail
with
commissioner
raver
and
there
are
tons
of
people
wanting
to
do
indoor
pickleball
courts.
AU
Nobody
would
know
that,
but
there
is
a
lot
of
deals
in
place
right
now
that
are
going
to
fill
this
demand
great
for
parks.
I
think
parks
should
still
do
it
on
other
courts,
not
this
one,
but
there
is
going
to
be
pickleball
coming.
I
promise
you
that
they're
going
to
make
these
deals
it's
going
to
be
here.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
A
All
right,
gene
colimani.
AJ
AV
Gene
calameni,
I
live
at
2159,
south
myers
place
and
I
started
playing
pickleball
in
2015,
and
that
was
after
a
major
operation
and
a
long
rehab,
and
I
play
pickleball
for
at
least
four
days
a
week
and
I
started
out
at
fort
boise.
Thank
goodness.
They
had
a
nice
indoor
facility,
then
and
learned
how
to
play
and
then
heard
about
manitou
and
went
out
there,
and
it's
been
a
wonderful
experience.
AV
That's
an
impact
that
really
only
the
pickleball
players
face
if
one
court
or
one
facility
goes
down,
it's
been
a
wonderful
sport.
It
continues
to
be
so,
and
I
have
met
a
lot
of
people
here
and
finally
have
learned
some
last
names.
So
I
do
support
fully
the
six
dedicated
courts
because
we
do
need
them.
Thank
you.
AW
Ralph
butler
and
2319
irene.
We
live
right
across
the
street
from
elm
grove
park
and
we
moved
here
from
denver
in
86
when
more
people
were
moving
out
of
boise
than
moving
in
and
I
thought
I'd
well.
This
isn't
quite
this
is
overstating
it,
but
I
thought
I
died
and
gone
to
heaven.
Somebody
else
had
used
that
word
because
we
had
tennis
courts
across
the
street.
We
had
a
swimming
pool,
several
blocks
away
at
lowell.
AW
We
had
skiing
at
bogus
and
I
was
a
school
teacher.
I
didn't
have
much
money
and
I
was
I
was
in
heaven.
Things
have
deteriorated
a
bit.
Some
of
the
our
pool
is
closed.
Hopefully
it's
reopening.
In
a
couple
of
years,
our
tennis
court
across
the
street
is
in
dire
straits.
It's
it's
a
danger
to
play
on
almost,
but
we
play
on
it
every
day.
AW
If,
if
we,
if
we
build
pickleball
courts
on
hope
to
god
that
they
wouldn't
build
them
in
elm
grove
park,
but
and
take
our
tennis
courts
away,
but
if
they
did,
if
they
did
that
at
the
place,
it
was
rock
creek.
I
think
it
would
be
a
mistake
because
it
just
the
people
who
live
there
then
would
have
to
get
in
their
cars
to
go
drive
to
the
nearest
courts,
whereas
now
they
can
ride
their
bikes
and
that's
that's
so
nice
and
it's
it's
fantastic,
and
I
just
I
grew
up
playing
tennis.
AW
I
also
played
squash.
I
played
a
little
bit
of.
AW
AW
AW
A
I
think
even
I
can
get
that
one
right
mark,
berger,
your
handwriting's,
pretty
good
at
seventeen
ridge
line
road.
AX
I
also
have
prepared
a
nice
speech
for
you
today,
but
I
am
going
to
skip
parts
of
it
and
try
to
stick
to
just
some
information
that
it
is
important.
I
think
to
note
as
well
as
what's
already
been
said,
gene
just
brought
up
the
fact
that
willow
elaine
did
have
to
close
one
time
for
repairs
and
both
out
of
the
three
current
dedicated
pickleball
facilities.
AX
Two
are
actually
in
not
very
good
shape.
Manito
and
willow.
Lane
eventually
are
both
going
to
be
need.
Go
both
going
to
need
to
be
resurfaced
so
when
that
finally
happens,
having
additional
courts
will
not
only
help
ease
the
current
crowding,
but
will
be
a
necessity
when
the
other
facilities
are
being
repaired.
AX
Currently,
boise
parks
and
rec
has
established
a
criteria
for
placement
of
pickleball
courts
in
relation
to
location
of
housing
near
the
facility.
Eagle
rock
is
basically
to
my
understanding
the
only
facility
that's
being
considered
for
conversion,
because
the
courts
are
located
far
enough
away
from
houses
to
be
acceptable.
AX
So
a
compromise
would
be
nice
on
the
tennis
and
pickleball
courts,
but
the
fact
is,
is
we
obviously
don't
have
enough
courts
and,
yes,
it
may
be
a
band-aid,
but
at
the
present
time
it's
really
the
only
economically
feasible
band-aid
that
there
is
so
please
support
the
the
conversion
of
the
six
of
the
two
tennis
courts
to
six
pickleball
courts.
Thank
you.
AY
Patricia
thompson:
2025
east
warm
springs
avenue.
I
live
quite
close
to
the
park
and
I
advocate
for
option
one.
I
think
it's
really
crummy
that
the
city
and
boise
city
rec
has
pitted
two
equally
important
sports
against
each
other,
which
I
feel
like
this
all
this
fuss
is
about.
AY
I
think,
if
you
that
park
provides
for
the
use
of
both
of
these
sports,
which
I
think
is
quite
fair,
I
am
concerned
about
the
parking
situation.
There
are
only
12
part
legal
legal
parking
spots
at
that
park,
currently
one
being
a
handicap
spot.
AY
When
I
went
by
this
morning,
there
was
a
daycare
or
something
with
a
bunch
of
kids
there
in
the
in
that
little
cove
there
were
moms
with
their
kids
in
the
playground.
So
where
are
they
gonna
park
and
right
now,
you
can
only
provide
for
half
half
of
the
pickleball
thing
and
I
think,
and
when
you
talk
about
the
budget,
people
say:
oh,
yes,
this
will
be
a
great
band.
This
will
be
a
band-aid,
but
it's
economically.
Well.
AY
How
much
does
it
cost
to
build
parking
to
facilitate
not
just
24
the
possibility,
24
different
cars
just
for
pickleball,
but
all
the
people
that
go
there
for
hiking
for
the
moms
with
and
dads
with
their
kids
at
the
park
or
for
also
people
that
just
want
to
go
there?
How?
How
are
you
going
to
that's
going
to
cost
a
lot
of
money?
AY
AY
You
need
to
look
in
the
future
and
you
need
to
find
a
large
enough
area
where
you
cannot
just
provide
for
pickleball
players
who
sorely
need
this,
but
you
also
need
to
provide
for
the
general
public
and
this
park.
Parking
alone
does
not
provide
for
everything.
If
you
put
those
three
pickleback
cards
in
and
right
now,
we
have
a
little
bit
of
the
best
of
the
world,
because
both
tennis
and
pickleball
papers
can
play
there
right
now.
Thank
you.

Lake
hi,
my
name,
is
jan
lake.
I
live
at
303
north
atlantic
street
boise,
idaho
83706.,
I'm
mir
what
the
people
have
said.
I
was
a
tennis
player.
I
was
the
president
of
boise
racket
and
swim
club.
I
know
what
it's
like,
but
I
never
saw
tennis
face
what
pickleball
has
faced
as
they
say
it
takes
forever
to
get
on
a
court
and
that's
from
people
that
are
retired.
AZ

Okay,
frank
matern:
is
it
matter.
AP
AP
AP
When
I
look
at
the
decision
you
are
going
to
make,
I
break
it
down
into
a
couple
of
components
with
some
basic
numbers:
one.
There
are
two
tennis
courts.
Tennis
players
generally
place
singles,
which
means
that
on
average,
four
players
would
use
those
two
existing
courts
in
an
hour
two.
If
there
are
six
dedicated
pickleball
courts
of
eagle
rock,
the
utilization
numbers
increase
to
24.,
they
have
six
chords
with
a
maximum
of
four
players
per
quart.
AP
We
know
that
the
city
has
only
a
finite
amount
of
dollars
and
resources
that
they
can
spend
on.
The
growing
demand
for
the
sport
of
pickleball
pickleball
is
the
fastest
growing
sport
nationally
and
within
the
treasure
valley,
to
get
the
biggest
bang
for
our
city
budget
dollars.
I
believe
the
conversion
to
six
pickleball
courts
would
accomplish
two
goals:
one
to
allow
eastenders
to
have
the
dedicated
dedicated
set
of
courts
to
meet
the
growing
demands
of
the
sport.

robin
cogan.
I
live
at
2563,
east
burgeson
street
in
boise
83706,
and
I've
been
playing
pickleball
for
probably
two
or
three
years
now,
and
the
challenge
of
finding
a
court
is
becoming
has
become
really
difficult,
especially
in
the
summer.
I
it's
like.
I
have
a
job,
I'm
out
the
door
at
7
30
in
the
morning
to
get
over
there
to

To
put

and
get
a
court
for
my
friends.
BA

ask
a
question
sure
I'm
so
was
your

robin
hi

Can
I
just
ask
you
a
quick
question.
I'm
wondering
excuse
me.
R
G
BB
Hi,
my
name
is
donna
carlson.
I
live
at
3084,
south
millbrook
way,
boise
83716
speaking
for
myself
and
my
husband,
who
is
on
your
list,
but
had
to
leave
to
go
fight
for
education.
There
are
so
many
things
to
say
about
why
eagle
rock
park
should
have
six
dedicated
pickleball
courts
that
I
could
have
written
out.
Ten
different
three-minute
talks,
but
let
me
hit
seven
fast
points
about
why
this
conversion
should
take
place
one.
BB
I
dare
say
that
every
city
in
america
that
has
one
person
who
has
played
pickleball
is
now
having
to
consider
how
to
deal
with
the
growth
of
that
sport.
Change
of
use
for
public
facilities
is
a
necessary
task
demanded
of
cities
to
meet
new
needs,
as
the
needs
develop.
Two.
The
friendships
this
sport
has
personally
brought
me
is
a
story
that
has
been
told
by
many
of
us.
I
moved
to
idaho
falls
after
27
years,
grandkids
enough
said
and
had
an
instant
community.
BB
The
pickleball
drop-in
format
fosters
connectivity,
and
that
should
matter
to
all
of
us
three.
The
greater
good
for
a
larger
number
of
taxpayers
is
to
convert
to
six
pickleball
courts.
We
are
respectful
citizens
requesting
a
little
piece
of
the
pie
and
even
that
doesn't
begin
to
be
an
equitable
solution.
When
you
look
at
the
number
of
players
and
courts
in
both
sports
four
implementing
six
courts
at
eagle
rock
park
is
an
urgent
need
for
a
pickleball
community
that
is
highly
underserved,
evidenced
by
long
lines
at
manito
and
people
leaving
or
not
coming
at
all.
BB
Based
upon
those
wait
times,
I
don't
think
tennis
courts
have
this
issue.
I
would
hope
we
would.
I
would
hope
we
would
not
rob
people
of
the
opportunity
for
social
and
physical
engagement.
Five
based
upon
input
from
boise
parks
and
rec
eagle
rock
park
has
been
determined
as
a
suitable
location
for
this
six
court
conversion.
I
could
be
more
sympathetic
about
tennis
players
currently
living
closer
to
eagle
rock
park
having
to
drive
two
to
three
miles
for
a
court.
BB
If
I
didn't
know
so
many
people
traveling
all
over
the
city
for
a
place
to
play
pickleball.
I
know
people
get
used
to
amenities
they've
had,
but
the
needs
have
changed
and
the
usage
needs
to
change.
People
of
all
ages
will
enjoy
the
pickleball
courts
at
eagle
rock
park
immensely
and
won't
have
to
carry
their
own
nets
to
do
so.
BB
As
many
of
us
do,
it's
swapping
one
sport
for
another
in
a
very
fair
manner,
given
the
city-wide
scarcity
of
pickleball
courts,
six,
I
live
right
off
the
green
belt
and
bike
15
minutes
to
eagle
rock
park.
There
are
many
of
us
who
will
ride
bikes
to
these
courts,
greatly
enlarging
the
number
of
people
who
can
access
courts
without
driving,
even
if
we
don't
live
off
old
penitentiary,
road.
Seventh
and
finally,
when
I
look
at
this
for
a
fair
and
equitable
solution,
it
seems
inconceivable
to
do
anything
but
convert
this
space
to
six
courts.
BB
I've
never
been
to
city
hall.
I
see
the
sign
for
the
greatest
good
in
considering
the
greatest
good
for
the
largest
number
of
taxpayers.
I
implore
you
to
vote
in
favor
of
this
solution
as
the
only
location,
possibly
for
many
years,
to
serve
our
constantly
growing
pickleball
community.
Thank
you
for
your
time
very
much.
Thank
you.

My
name
is
ruth
fritz
and
I
lived
at
live
at
1414
east
east
washington,
street
83712.,
my
name.
I
already
said
that
I
had
the
good
fortune
of
growing
up
in
boise
near
a
city
park.
I've
lived
in
the
east
end
for
nearly
30
years,
I'm
but
one
block
from
the
gravel
path
that
leads
to
chief
eagle
eye
reserve
and
the
adjacent
eagle
rock
park
and
walk
from
there
almost
daily,
like
the
many
families
with
young
children
who
live
all
around
me.
I've
raised
my
children
with
a
safe
and
easily
access
park.
BC
Right
in
my
neighborhood,
I
spent
countless
hours
with
them
on
these
tennis
courts.
They
both
play
college
tennis
and
teach
tennis
for
the
city.
Public
neighborhood
courts
primarily
facilitated
this
journey
for
them,
not
a
private
club
board
members
and
staff.
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
share
my
perspective
with
you.
As
someone
who
uses
the
parks,
tennis
courts
participates
in
usta
league
tennis
and
has
witnessed
the
benefits
of
young
people
playing
tennis
for
their
school
teams.
BC
BC
Let's
remember
the
efforts
of
our
forefathers,
or
rather
our
four
mothers
years
ago,
barbara
chandler
was
instrumental
in
facilitating
the
development
of
public
tennis
courts
throughout
the
city,
with
the
goal
of
access
for
all
and
creating
opportunity
for
our
youth.
Her
legacy
should
not
be
cast
aside
by
eliminating
tennis
from
the
mix
at
neighborhood
parks.
BC
I
ask
you
to
think
of
another
foremother
who
lives
near
me.
Betty
foster
betty
was
instrumental
in
route
in
rallying
east
end
neighbors
in
the
90s
around
the
cause
of
preserving
this
very
special
area,
that
is
the
reserve
and
the
adjacent
park.
The
housing
development
built
on
native
american
burial
ground
would
have
stretched
more
extensively.
Had
neighbors
not
objected.
This
reserve
in
park
is
very
unique
to
the
boise
park.
Collection
users
often
comment
on
the
serenity
they
enjoy
there.
It's
a
migratory
bird
path,
a
corridor
for
the
deer
traveling
to
the
river
trails.
BC
BC
AF
A
All
right,
kathleen
roberts.
BD
BD
BD
As
director
holloway
stated,
this
park
needs
to
balance
all
users
balancing
all
users
means
not
just
pickleball,
not
just
tennis,
but
the
playground,
the
trail
and
the
big
grassy
area
that
we
use
for
soccer.
BD
It
seems
today
that
we
are
prioritizing
pickleball
and
only
talking
about
pickleball
and
tennis,
the
majority
of
pickleball
players
will
drive
to
these
courts.
Converting
six
or
making
six
pickleball
courts
means
am
peak
times
will
have
a
minimum
of
24
cars
and
probably
with
all
the
paddles
on
the
court
30..
BD
Another
point
of
discussion
for
you
at
your
meeting,
other
other
places
to
park
could
be
a
table
rock
trailhead,
but
I
think
the
city
has
a
duty
to
provide
safe
access
to
these
pickleball
courts.
Walking
a
quarter
mile
across
a
grass
uneven
grass
field
with
bad
knees
and
bad
backs
seems
like
it
might
be,
a
liability
for
the
city,
I'm
probably
a
little
bit
unique
in
this
because
I
haven't
heard
anyone
say
they
actually
prefer
the
hybrid
model,
but
I
actually
do.
BD
A
Okay,
when
do
you
is
it
blah
belt.
BE
I
don't
nobody
calls
me
that
hi
there
wendy
blauvelt
2040
south
pond
street
boise,
idaho
83705,
I
work
downtown
close
to
eagle
rock
park
and
have
played
pickleball
there
a
few
times.
I
grew
up
here.
You'll
see
my
name
all
over
the
boise
parks
and
rec
sports
rosters,
since
the
1990s
in
multiple
sports
to
me,
sports
are
all
about
making
new
friends
and
being
part
of
a
community,
so
much
so
that
I
ran
a
memorial
softball
draw
tournament
here
for
10
years.
BE
The
goal
was
to
mix
all
player
levels
together,
to
bring
them
closer
to
each
other
and
build
a
community
guess
what
pickleball
is
already
like
that
you
come
as
an
individual
and
you
get
put
on
a
team,
multiple
teams.
In
fact,
it's
the
only
sport
I
know
of
where
there
aren't
set
teams.
The
young
can
play
with
the
old,
the
lower
level
players
can
mix
in
with
the
upper
level
players.
It
is
all
inclusive,
it
is
a
community,
it
is
boise
kind
and
never
in
my
lifetime.
So
far
have
I
seen
a
sport.
BE
Absolutely
explode
like
pickleball
has.
In
fact
I
just
recently
found
out
my
neighbor
is
taking
pickleball
lessons
from
the
city
of
boise
at
eagle
rock
park.
She
loves
it.
Her
classmates
love
it.
They
love
it
so
much.
They
wanted
to
go
play
together
and
practice
what
they've
learned,
because
it
was
central
to
them
all.
They
went
to
philippi
park,
guess
what
the
court
is
lined,
but
there's
no
net
just
like
at
eagle
rock
they're
beginners.
They
don't
have
a
net
and
my
neighbor
says:
do
you
know
how
expensive
and
that
is?
BE
She
then
asked
me:
are
there
any
courts
that
are
already
that
already
have
nets
on
them?
Yes,
but
only
three
manito
willow
lane
and
hobble
creek,
oh
good,
we'll
have
to
try
manito,
she
said
and
in
my
mind
I
thought
they're
going
to
go
to
manito
they're
going
to
want
a
court
just
for
them,
because
they're
not
ready
or
comfortable
mixing
in
yet,
even
though
they're
more
than
welcome
to
do
that.
But
there
are
rules,
rules
posted
by
the
city
of
boise.
If
players
are
waiting,
you
cannot
monopolize
a
court
and
players
will
be
waiting.
BE
So
now
we
have
a
group
of
people
who
are
learning
the
game
excited
to
play
and
yet
can't
really
practice
or
play
comfortably
anywhere
unless
they
go
by
a
net
softball,
you
get
a
field
in
bases,
tennis,
you
get
a
court
and
a
net
basketball.
You
get
a
court
and
a
hoop.
Even
in
soccer
you
get
goal
posts,
so
you
can
at
least
get
a
game
going,
but
pickleball
here
are
some
lines
on
the
pavement.
Now
go
figure
it
out.
Honestly.
BE
If
we
can
get
six
dedicated
courts
at
eagle
rock
park,
then
maybe
we
can
alleviate
at
least
some
of
the
overcrowding
at
manito,
willow
and
hubble
creek,
and
maybe
we
can
continue
to
keep
the
beginners
in
this
area
interested
and
involved,
which
could
lead
to
more
pickleball
lessons,
leagues
and
tournaments,
all
of
which
could
generate
significant
revenue
for
the
city
of
boise.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
BE
A
Denise
and
the
last
name
starts
with
a
day
with
the
j
she
had
to
leave.
Okay,
I
thought
you
were
trying
to
pronounce
your
last
name.
I
was
like
not
gonna.
Try
it
all
right.
Okay,

An
investment
of
less
than
ten
thousand
dollars
would
increase
the
number
of
courts
by
approximately
thirty
percent
and
the
impact
on
tennis
would
be
minimal.
With
a
reduction
of
about
two
percent
converting
the
two
tennis
courts
at
eagle
rock
park
to
six
dedicated
pickleball
courts
would
be
a
big
help
to
alleviate
the
pressure
on
the
available
courts
and
would
be
greatly
appreciated
by
the
pickleball
community.

As
pickleball
continues
to
grow
in
popularity,
the
existing
courts
will
become
more
crowded
and
the
wait
times
are
going
to
increase.
When
I
exercise,
I
want
to
participate
in
the
sport
and
not
wait
on
the
sidelines
for
a
chance
to
play.
Please
build
the
six
pickleball
courts
at
eagle,
rock
and
many
more
in
the
city.
Thank
you.
BH
Thank
you.
My
name
is
jennifer
kloss
and
I
live
at
2428,
parkside
drive
in
boise
83712
and
I
love
playing
pickleball.
I
know
most
of
this
you've
heard
this
evening
already
it
has
enriched
my
life
immensely
physically,
mentally
and
socially,
to
say
the
least.
BH
I
am
also
a
long
time
tennis
player
and
have
played
all
my
life.
I
have
enjoyed
the
many
plentiful
courts
that
are
available
on
the
east
end,
and
so
I
respect
that
sport
for
sure
I've
pretty
much
switched
more
to
pickleball
and
have
also
experienced
the
huge
increase
of
pickleball
players
in
the
lack
of
dedicated
courts
on
the
east
end.
BH
I
think
the
sheer
number,
in
my
opinion
of
the
tennis
courts
in
this
east
end
area
versus
the
number
of
dedicated
pickleball
courts,
just
that
those
numbers
alone,
I
think,
paint
a
clear
picture
of
of
the
desperate
need
that
we
have
for
additional
dedicated
pickleball
courts
as
far
as
the
parking
I
I
do
know
that
I
think
that
the
parking
at
the
penitentiary
would
be
available,
and
I
as
well
as
maybe
some
others
would
be
more
than
happy
to
walk
the
extra
the
extra
little
bit
across
the
park
to
get
to
the
courts.
BH
It
would
be
the
least
I
could
do,
and
so
for
that
I
would
just
want
to
say
that
I
fully
support
the
six
day
dedicated
pickleball
courts
at
eagle
rock
city
park,
and
I
appreciate
your
chance
to
let
me
stand
here
and
make
my
request
known.
Thank
you.
BI
My
name
is
john
lucky,
others
in
my
family,
say
lou
k,
but
they're
doctors
there
we
go.
I
was
born
1947
in
boise,
I
live
in
809
west
lemp
street
happened
to
be
across
the
street
where
I
grew
up.
BI
All
these
people
are
my
friends,
I
know
all
their
faces
now.
I
know
some
of
their
names
but
I'll
forget
tomorrow,
but
yes-
and
I
played
a
lot
at
about
five
or
six
years
now
played
at
willow,
now
moved
over
to
willow
about
three
years
ago.
Why?
I
got
more
playing
time.
We
had
cracks
about
an
inch
and
a
half
wide
cracks.
You
might
be
familiar
with
that
scenario.
BI
We
played
with
those
cracks
and
it
it
was
a
price
to
pay
to
get
more
playing
time
and
that's
what
we
did
until
we
got
closed
one
weekend.
Well,
I
was
first
down
in
line
at
morrison
and
morrison
park,
saying
we
could
have
100
people
down
here
to
open
those
courts
back
up,
it's
three.
So
it
was
closed
over
the
three-day
weekend
and
it
opened
back
up
on
tuesday.
You
eliminated
one
of
the
courts,
maybe
with
the
worst
cracks.
I
doubt
it
now.
BI
Those
cracks
are
fixed
about
two
months
now
and
as
ever,
the
population
grows.
This
morning
I
played
at
8
30.
the
court
behind
me.
There
were
four
young
guys
under
15
playing
and
they
were
good.
They
were
good
they'd
been
playing
it
well.
I
played
and
met
a
new
guy
from
houston
who
was
here
for
four
days.
I
don't
know
how
he
found
willow,
but
he
found
it
and
he
was
an
avid
pickleball
player
coming
to
enjoy
his
sport
in
our
town.
BI
But
I
don't
like
waiting
in
line.
You
know
I
like
to
slam
the
ball.
I
don't
like
to
dink
some
people
don't
like
to
play
with
me
and
I've
paid
for
that
a
couple
of
times
but
anyway
and
a
good
friend
of
mine.
She
she
handles
the
organization
for
about
35
boomers
playing
pickleball
at
hobble.
BI
BI
Thank
you
for
considering
this,
but
do
we
need
more
courts
and
so
be
it
if
that's
eagle
rock.
P
A
No
greg
smith,
okay,
kristen
king.
BJ
I
am
unlike
a
lot
of
folks
here,
a
new
resident
of
boise
and
I'm
also
brand
new
to
the
game
of
pickleball,
and
I
have
to
say,
I
joined
this
sport
to
meet
people.
We
didn't
know
anyone
here
when
we
moved
here
and
so
it's
a
great
opportunity
to
meet
folks
and,
of
course,
for
physical
exercise
as
well,
but
I
also
like
the
fact
that
it's
inclusive
for
all
sport
all
skill
levels,
so
that
gave
me
an
opportunity
to
meet
people
and
to
do
something
exercise
and
be
healthy.
BJ
I
vote
for
six
courts
at
eagle
rock
absolutely
because
of
my
experience.
I'm
on
the
east
side.
The
only
place
I
can
really
play
is
manitoba.
It's
the
only
place
I've
tried
to
play
and
like
I
was
one
of
those
folks
that
was
there
this
morning
at
8,
30
and
all
the
courts
are
full
and
11
rackets
are
up,
so
I
ended
up
not
staying
long
and
and
leaving,
and
it
just
seems
with
the
growth
of
this
vibrant
city
here
in
boise
that
there
would
be
a
little
bit
more
designated
courts
to
have
a
balance.
BJ
That
is
a
little
more
fair
to
this
amazingly
growing
sport
of
pickleball
and
so
ditto.
What
everybody
else
is
saying.
I
can
just
see
that
this
would
be
something
that
we
really
need
is
to
have
these
six
quarks
designated
for
pickleball
at
equal
rock.
Thank
you.
AM
Hello,
I'm
mark
king,
I'm
here
with
my
wife
address,
is
3317
south
old
hickory
way.
I'm
boise,
idaho,
we
moved
here
a
year
ago,
purchased
a
home
on
the
east
side
and
parks
and
recreation
are
four
or
five
times.
AM
We
came
here
to
check
out
whether
this
is
the
place
we
wanted
to
retire
to
the
beautiful
parks
and
all
the
recreation
activities
were
a
big
part
of
the
reason
that
we
moved
here
and
then
we
got
here
and
discovered
the
sport
of
pickleball,
and
it
really
has
become
our
primary
recreation
that
we
do
in
our
life
and
it's
unlike
golf,
which
I
tried
to
teach
her,
which
did
not
go
well.
AM
Pickleball
is
so
inclusive.
Any
skill
levels
can
play
and
probably,
most
importantly
to
us,
you
know
I
could
go
through
the
list
of
all
the
benefits
and
why
it's
so
popular,
I
think
we've
heard
them
enough,
but
the
social
interaction
part
we
moved
here.
We
didn't
know
one
single
person
and
just
the
way
pickleball
is
set
up
and
you
can
drop
into
these
courts.
AM
I
hadn't
really
heard
of
pickleballs
that
we
got
here,
but
I
understand
now
why
it's
the
fastest
growing
sport
in
the
country,
because
everyone
that
experiences
it,
I
think,
has
the
same
type
of
reaction
and-
and
you
know
the
same
benefits
so
I'm
you've
heard
so
much
all
the
you
know
the
reasons
the
health,
the
you
know,
the
exercise,
but
basically
just
kind
of
gets
down
to
really
an
allocation
of
resources
to
meet
the
needs
of
the
vast
majority
of
people
that
are
going
to
be
utilizing
on
the
courts
at
eagle
rock,
and
that
is
going
to
be
pickleball
players,
and
you
know
we
need
you've,
heard
the
wait
time
for
everyone.
AM
We
need
these
now,
it's
great
to
have
the
vision,
we're
going
to
build
a
big
complex
out
in
the
future,
but
that
doesn't
help
us
right
now
and
we
really
need
this
at
eagle,
rock
and
and
hopefully
you'll.
Consider
that
and
appreciate
your
time.
R
Thank
you
chair.
I
think
I'm
ready
to
ask
a
question.
All
right
go
ahead,
so
yeah
we've
had
folks
reference
these
long
wait
times,
I'm
just
curious.
What
are
what
are
those
like?
What
are
folks
doing,
while
they're
waiting
for
a
court
to
be
able
to
play.
AM
I
mean
they're
waiting,
you
know
I
mean.
Obviously
people
are,
you
know
are
talking
to
each
other,
but
you
basically
are
waiting
and
the
problem
like
I
showed
the
man
until
this
morning
and
you
have
to
get
there
at
8
o'clock
in
the
morning.
I'm
not
really
a
you
know
morning
player,
so
it
takes.
You
know
to
avoid
injury,
you
really
need
to
loosen
up
a
little
bit.
You
get
in
a
game
and
you
rotate
after
two
and
games
can
last
only
10
minutes.
So
you
get
warmed
up.
AM
You
play
a
couple
games
and
then
you
sit
for
30
minutes
and
you
completely
cool
down,
and
then
you
try
to
warm
up
again
and
that's
actually
hard
on
your
body
when
you're
trying
to
play
and
you
you
know,
you're,
it's
your
susceptible
injury.
When
that
happens,
so
you
know
it's,
it's
just
a
negative
aspect
of
the
overuse.
R
Just
a
quick
follow-up,
mr
chair,
I
guess
I'm
I'm
wondering
what
the
what
the
interactions
with
folks
are
like
are
folks
getting
upset
with
each
other.
AM
No,
no,
no,
it's
so
inclusive
and
friendly.
It's
actually
okay.
You
know
I
I
hesitate
to
say
it's
great,
because
you
meet
all
these
people
and
you
know
you're
making
friends
and
all
that
you
you
know.
I
don't
want
to
come
to
the
conclusion.
Oh,
this
is
great
that
they
aren't
able
to
play
they're.
You
know
they're
building
relationships.
Okay,
I
think,
even
though
that
happens,
it's
not
really.
A
Okay,
josh
howard.

and
I
play
both
tennis
and
pickleball.
My
daughter
has
played
tennis
all
through
her
junior
high
years
and
will
continue
to
play
in
high
school
next
year
and
we
have
no
shortage
of
places
to
play.
Tennis
on
this
end
of
town,
a
few
that
spring
to
mind
are
fort
boise,
east
junior
high
williams
park,
ivy,
wild
and
morrison
julia
davis,
a
brand
new
complex
at

and
a
bunch
more
pickleball's
a
bit
different
on
this
end
of
town.
BK
We
have
four
dedicated
pickleball
courts
at
manito
that
isn't
nearly
enough
courts
for
the
amount
of
players
that
we
have.
The
crowds
are
getting
younger

younger.
When
school
is

we
have
players
from

joining

Thank
you,

BL
Michael
blickman
810
north
19th
street
first
I
want
to
thank
you
for
having
now
a
two
and
a
half
hour
meeting,
because
the
alternative
was
to
watch
the
january
6
hearing.
So
I'm
really
happy
to
it
to
have
missed
that.
I,
my
wife
and
I
moved
to
boise
about
five
years
ago,
we're
in
the
north
end.
There
are
really
no
other
courts
for
us
to
play
on
other
than
manito
hubble
creek.
BL
I
went
to
hubble
creek
today,
interestingly,
I've
never
been
able
to
get
on
there,
but
I
got
on
on
the
courts
and
all
of
them
all
of
them
were
full
and
you
know
you've
heard
everything
under
the
sun
tonight.
I
I
realized.
Somebody
else
said
I
don't
envy
your
your
conference
and
your
decision
about
this,
because
it
really
is
tough.
I
mean
you're
going
to
make
somebody
unhappy
and
no
commission
really
really
likes
doing
that.
BL
When
I
look
at
this
kind
of
decision,
I
too
look
at
it,
as
my
friend
frank
said,
as
it's
part
financial,
and
I
if
this
is
the
only
choice
that
the
community
has,
I
don't
see
any
other
alternative,
but
to
go
ahead
and
convert
these
to
the
six
pickleball
courts
and
it's
unfortunate
it's
a
great
problem
for
you
to
have.
I
mean
you've
got
this
excessive
number
of
people
who
want
to
be
active
and
it's
a
great
problem.
BL
Not
all
cities
have
that,
but
but
boise
does
it
it's
because
there's
there's
a
culture
here,
a
vibrant
culture
of
people
who
who
want
to
be
active
and
that's
in
part.
Why
why
we
came
here,
I
had
occasion
just
a
couple
of
weeks
ago
to
go
to
another
event
and
mayor
mclean
was
talking
and
she
was
talking
about
the
connections
that
people
make
in
boise
and
how
important
it
is
to
make
connections
among
people
who
are
of
disparate
backgrounds
and
backgrounds,
but
also
socio.
Economically
and
again.
BL
This
is
somebody
who
has
already
said
this,
but
I
want
to
just
reinforce
that.
You
know
at
hobble.
Creek
today
I
played
with
an
african
american
I
played
with
two
asian
americans
I
played
with
a
12
year
old
I
played
with
his
mother,
who
trounced
me
I
mean
she's.
You
know
totally
humbled
me,
but
you
know
that
that's
what
pickleball
is
it's
a
it's
a
really
diverse
sport
so-
and
I
think
you
know,
there's
really
no
debate
that
you
should
do
what
you
can
to
to
encourage
this.
BL
BM
You,
mr
chair,
is
council
member
holly
burton
yes
go
ahead.
Well
first,
I
I
have
to
take
off
here
in
just
a
second
at
my
other
job,
we're
doing
a
free
kids
bike
repair
night
and
it's
starting
to
get
pretty
busy
down
there.
I
I
saw
just
a
second
ago
that,
like
my
face,
was
12
feet
tall
on
the
on
the
wall
over
there,
so
I
turned
the
camera
off,
but
I
have
been
listening
to
everyone
I
just
want
to.
BM
Let
you
all
know
that
I
appreciate
you
coming
down
and
and
wanting
to
build
a
stronger
community.
I
also
wanted
to
make
sure
that
I
thanked
the
commissioners
who
kind
of
have
to
make
a
decision
tonight.
They're
all
volunteers
that
are
that
are
here
just
like
folks,
you
in
the
community
they're
not
paid
for
being
up
there
and
they
do
have
to
make
decisions
that
are
based
off
of
you
know
a
budget
and
what
we
have
the
ability
to
do,
and
I
think
if
we
could
everybody
up,
there
would
love
to
build.
BM
You
know
it
makes
for
tough
decisions,
but
it's
also
decisions
that
we
have
to
make.
So
I
appreciate
all
the
commissioners
that
are
up
there
and
the
decision
that
they'll
be
they'll,
be
making
tonight
and
I'll
be
checking
back
in
later
to
see
how
long
the
rest
of
the
meeting
goes.
BN
Hi,
I'm
john
romero
and
I
live
at
6012,
south
wallflower
place
and
columbia,
village
wow.
So
we
have
a
lot
of
soccer
fields
there,
but
anyway
I
do
support
converting
the
two
tennis
courts
at
eagle
rock
into
six
pickleball
courts.
BN
BN
BO
My
name
is
maggie
romero
and
I
live
at
6012
south
wallflower
place
and
I
think
I've
they
they've
said
everything
that
I
have
written
down,
so
I'm
just
gonna
be
short
and
just
kind
of
let
you
know
why
I
play
pickleball.
BO
I
play
for
the
recreation,
the
socialization
for
physical
fitness
and
mental
health,
and
I
think
one
thing,
though,
is
that
it
can
be
addicting.
So
there's
a
lot
of
these
guys
that
play
every
day
and
I
I'm
I'm
right
there
with
them
so
just
to
keep
it
short.
I
I
vote
to
support
the
conversion
of
to
six
pickleball
court
and
you
go
rock.
Thank
you.
A
All
right,
I
have
is
it
pell
daggie
held
daily.
BP
I
am
representing
myself
and
I
live
at
3817
west
grover
street
83705.
BP
I
thank
you
for
your
time
and
consideration
and
allowing
us
to
speak.
I
regularly
play
manito,
not
going
to
repeat
everything
that
everyone
said,
but
I
also
every
saturday
for
the
last.
I
think
two
and
a
half
months
have
played
at
eagle
rock
there's
a
group
of
us
that
will
get
together
and
play
typically
about
seven
or
eight
people.
BP
The
last
three
saturdays
there's
been
another
group.
That's
played
so
last
saturday
was
two
groups
of
seven
people
each
and
we
each
brought
our
own
nets
so
14
people
on
that
court,
no
one
on
the
tennis
courts
and
for
the
last
two
and
a
half
months
that
I've
been
playing
there.
I've
only
noticed
people
playing
on
the
tennis
court.
One
time.
BP
BP
I
think
that
pickleball
for
me
exudes
that
boise
kind
spirit
that
we
have
every
game
we
play.
We
get
to
know
each
other
and
get
to
know
everybody's
names,
and
I
remember
the
first
time
I
was
playing
at
manito
and
walking
off
and
a
couple
people
shouted
by
peg
as
I
left
the
courts,
and
I
was
like
oh
my
gosh.
They
know
my
name
and.
BQ
BP
A
You
are,
you
sure
they
didn't
say:
hey
pal,
all,
right,
dave,
madison,
okay,
david
cleverden,.
BR
My
name
is
david
cleverden
and
the
address
is
3270
west
agate.
First
of
all,
I'd
like
to
thank
you
for
sitting
through
all
this.
We
know
it's
not
only
are
you
volunteers,
but
it's
a
task.
BR
So
from
a
personal
standpoint,
I
played
tennis
for
20
years
until
an
injury
to
my
shoulder
took
me
out.
I
was
also
a
volunteer
for
the
usta,
which
is
u.s
tennis
association
for
a
number
of
those
years
and
throughout
a
large
percentage
of
that
time,
declining
membership
was
always
a
topic
of
discussion
and
something
we
were
always
concerned
about.
How
do
you
get
more
tennis
players
into
the
mix
because
membership
is
declining
and
that
something
we
all
see?
We
see
tennis
courts
sitting
empty
and
that's
just
a
change
in
the
demographic.
BR
But
if
you
think
about
the
demographic,
it's
a
changing
demographic
and
the
reason
I
say
that
is
because
more
and
more
people,
in
fact
you
could
talk
to
the
majority
of
these
folks.
A
lot
of
them
have
played
tennis
and
for
some
reason
they
either
play
into
tennis
now
or
they
switch
to
something
new
and
that's
pickleball,
easier
to
play
easier
on
the
body.
BR
In
fact,
one
of
the
gentlemen
brought
up
that
was
in
support
of
option
number
one:
the
fact
that
that
he's
a
tennis
player-
and
if
I
you
look
at
tennis
again,
you
look
at
tennis
magazine
two
months
ago.
One
of
the
pro
pickleball
players
was
on
the
cover
of
tennis
magazine
because
they
look
at
it
as
a
gateway.
BR
You
know,
let's
get
people
into
pickleball
and
then
they'll
play
more
tennis
to
increase
the
membership,
but
it
all
comes
down
to
one
final
thing
is
that
we're
dealing
with
a
demographic
today
that
is
enthusiastic
about
pickleball,
more
people
are
playing
pickleball
in
a
declining
membership
for
tennis
and
that's
why
we're
having
the
discussion
today,
but,
along
with
that
discussion,
we
brought
up
boise
schools
and
one
of
the
doug.
You
brought
it
up
in
one
of
your
pieces
of
your
powerpoint
presentation.
BR
There's
a
question
there.
Well,
I
can
tell
you
from
a
personal
standpoint:
we
go
out
to
some
of
the
junior
highs
and
high
schools
to
be
able
to
find
a
net,
so
we
can
drill
nothing
more
than
drilling
on
a
net.
And
yet
we
see
people
have
taken
chalk
marks,
they've,
taken
old,
duct
tape,
they've
taken
pieces
of
cardboard
to
create
pickleball
alliance,
because
there
is
pressure
to
find
a
court,
because
everything
is
so
full
and
I
don't
necessarily
believe
that's
a
good
thing.
BR
BS
BS
Mr
president,
members
of
the
commission
good
evening,
thank
you
all
for
being
here
for
the
record.
My
name
is
cindy
montoto.
I
live
at
718
east
mckinley
street
in
boise
83712,
and
I
am
authorized
to
testify
this
evening
on
behalf
of
the
east
end
neighborhood
association,
also
known
as
ina,
where
I
currently
serve,
as
vice
president
of
the
board
of
directors,
usually
I'm
in
a
personal
capacity
on
the
other
end.
So
I
know
that
I
need
to
adjust.
BS
This
anna
received
several
emails
regarding
the
proposed
changes
to
the
eagle
rock
park,
tennis
courts
and
the
majority
of
the
emails
that
ina
received
were
in
support
of
converting
one
or
both
of
the
tennis
courts
to
pickleball
courts.
Although
other
respondents
were
not
in
support
of
this
conversion,
some
of
the
concerns
will
be
highlighted
below
with
the
growth
and
popularity
of
pickleball
and
the
small
number
of
pickleball
courts
available
in
the
city.
There
are
major
concerns
with
parking
impacts.
On
the
current
I
apologize
on
the
current
already
limited
parking
at
eagle
rock
park.
BS
BS
There
are
also
concerns
with
increased
noise
levels
and
sound
impacts
for
park,
goers
and
homes
that
are
located
at
the
west
side
of
the
park,
especially
during
large
events
due
to
the
equipment
used.
Noise
impacts
from
pickleball
is
something
experienced
in
other
parts
of
the
u.s
and
has
been
described
in
a
recent
wall.
BS
Street
journal
article
published
on
june
28th
and
in
a
los
angeles
times,
article
published
on
march
3rd
noise
impacts
from
pickleball
can
affect
infants
and
young
children
enjoying
the
playground,
pets
and
those
with
sensory
processing,
disorder
veterans,
all
populations
that
spend
time
and
enjoy
using
the
neighborhood
park
and
playground.
Ina
has
received
suggestions
that
the
city
should
conduct
a
noise
study
prior
to
moving
forward
with
this
proposal
to
ensure
that
these
properties
are
not
impacted
and
that
current
noise
ordinances
are
met.
BS
Eagle
rock's,
two
tennis
courts
are
post-tensioned
courts
specifically
designed
for
tennis
and
excluding
tennis
opportunities
completely
at
this
location
is
not
a
balanced
approach.
This
forces
tennis
players
out
of
the
park
there
is
room
at
eagle
rock
park
and
other
locations
for
constructing
pickleball
specific
courts,
so
that
tennis
recreationalists
in
the
east
end
do
not
lose
access,
while
most
feel
that
both
pickleball
and
tennis
opportunities
should
be
available
across
the
city
of
boise.
BS
Some
east
end
residents
have
concerns
with
completely
excluding
tennis
from
eagle
rock
park
and
only
offering
pickleball
courts.
Residents
have
voiced
that
maintaining
eagle
rock
parks,
tennis
courts,
as
is
with
pickleball
lines
on
them
option
one
and
adding
dedicated
pickleball
court
construction
to
the
parks
and
rec's
capital
improvement
plan
will
preserve
the
park's
post-tension
tennis
court
asset
provide
pickleball
and
tennis
players
a
place
to
play
and
assure
that
dedicated
pickleball
courts
will
be
built
in
the
future.
BS
At
this
time,
the
eastern
neighborhood
association
takes
the
compromise
position
on
this
issue
and
we
support
the
status
quo
of
sharing
two
tennis
courts
for
both
tennis
and
pickleball
players.
Ena
recommends
that
the
city
provides
capital
improvement
funds
to
conduct
a
noise
study
that
would
guide
the
design
of
a
new
set
of
pickleball
courts
at
eagle
rock
park
in
the
near
future.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
P
BT
I'm
the
I'm
speaking
for
the
pickleball
club,
just
so
you
know
okay
good
afternoon,
mr
president
and
commission
members.
Thank
you
for
allowing
me
to
speak
to
you.
My
name
is
chris
clauherty
and
I'm
the
president
of
the
boise
pickleball
club
and
I
live
at
2284
south
greek
place
right
now.
BT
There
are
only
three
parks
in
boise
which
have
any
dedicated
pickleball
courts
and
all
three
are
full
many
hours
of
the
day,
they're
used
every
single
day
spring
summer
and
fall,
and
even
on
winter
days,
as
john
romero
said,
there
is
always
a
crowd
and
usually
there
are
people
waiting.
Now,
according
to
parks
and
rec,
there
are
126
tennis
courts
in
boise.
Today
you
are
only
being
asked
to
convert
two
percent
of
them
to
tennis
courts.
BT
There
are
over
64
tennis
courts
on
the
just
east
of
50th
west,
all
across
the
city,
but
in
that
whole
eastern
portion
of
the
city
there's
only
four
pickleball
courts,
that's
a
giant
imbalance
and
that's
the
thing.
We
hope
that
you
can
rectify
at
least
begin
to
rectify
parks
and
rec
has
recognized,
there's
a
great
great
need
for
pickleball
courts,
but
they
do
not
have
the
money
to
build.
BT
Pickleball
courts
from
scratch
and
land
is
also
a
big
problem,
they're
not
certain
when
they
will
be
able
to
build
any
new
courts,
but
they
have
told
me
it
honestly
could
be
years
telling
thousands
of
citizens,
many
of
whom
are
well
past
retirement-
that
they
should
wait
years
for
courts
to
be
built
some
indefinite
time
down
the
road.
It's
really
not
fair,
particularly
when
lightly
used
tennis
courts
can
be
converted
immediately
to
meet
that
need
with
little
money
or
land.
The
only
solution
available
to
parks
and
rec
is
to
look
for
tennis
courts.
BT
They
believe
are
suitable
for
conversion,
they've
selected,
eagle
rock,
because
they
believe
it
is
the
park
on
the
east
side,
which
is
most
suitable
for
for
conversion.
In
fact,
I
have
been
told
that
they
believe
it
appears
to
be
the
only
court
the
only
park
on
the
east
side,
which
is
suitable
for
conversion.
BT
BT
Furthermore-
and
this
is
really
important
in
a
in
a
city
that
needs
money
in
a
parks,
commission
and
a
parks
department
that
needs
money,
you
will
be
able
to
do
this,
for
essentially
no
money
parks
and
rec
has
stated
they
can
make
the
entire
conversion
for
less
than
nine
thousand
dollars,
which
is
less
than
fifteen
hundred
dollars.
A
court
you'll
get
six
courts
for
nine
thousand
bucks.
BT
They've
also
told
me
some
people
here
said
well,
they
should
just
build
you,
some
courts
well,
we'd,
be
glad
for
that
parks
and
rec
has
told
me
a
reasonable
current
cost
for
building
six
pickleball
courts
from
scratch
is
1.2
million
dollars,
1.2
million
versus
9
000.
You
should
think
about
this.
The
savings
are
staggering
and
that's
extremely
important
to
consider
in
a
city
that's
struggling
to
meet
many
other
needs.
I'm
sure
the
city
council
could
find
very
worthwhile
uses
for
1.2
million
dollars.
BT
I
had
to
shorten
this
because
I
thought
I
had
15
minutes,
so
forgive
me
boise
prides
itself
on
being
an
inclusive
community
and
in
that
spirit
I
urge
this
commission
not
to
exclude
a
large
number
of
its
citizens
from
the
public
courts.
They
knew
using
need
and
use
heavily
and
that's
the
pickleball
population.
BT
Now
one
issue
has
been
raised
by
several
tennis
players
and
that's
a
lack
of
access
to
courts.
I
used
to
play
tennis.
I
played
a
lot
of
tennis.
A
lot
of
these
people
played
tennis,
we
love
tennis,
we
also
love
pickleball,
but
you
have
to
remember.
The
people
in
east
end
will
not
be
deprived
of
pickleball
courts.
There
are
six
excellent
lighted
course:
courts
on
the
east
other
end
of
the
east
end
at
fort
boise,
so
they
will
have
a
place
to
play.
It
will
not
be
taken
away
from
them
by
any
means.
BT
BT
One
and
three
would
simply
be
maintaining
the
status
quo,
because
there's
already
two
pickleball
courts
there,
the
portable
net
option,
so
that
would
maintain
a
status
quo
that
is
already
unsatisfactory
and
one
which
will
only
grow
worse
with
time
as
more
and
more
pickleball
players
appear
every
month
with
nowhere
to
play.
If
you
want
to
solve
the
problem,
the
only
option
is
solution
is
option
two,
which
is
full
conversion.
Excuse
me,
I
just
want
to
get
my
water.
BT
Residents
have
also
raised
questions
about
possible
noise
and
parking,
and
both
those
questions
are
reasonable
and
understandable.
However,
parks
and
rec
chose
this
park.
After
concluding,
in
their
professional
opinion,
the
noise
should
not
be
an
issue.
The
first
reason
is
that
the
nearest
houses
are
more
than
300
feet
away
from
the
courts
and
only
on
one
side
of
the
courts.
BT
Parks
and
rec
can
do
things
to
reduce
the
noise
further
by
putting
up
sound,
reducing
mats,
they
can
restrict
hours
on
play,
but
maybe
the
most
important
thing
for
you
to
know
is
that
I've
spoken
to
parks
and
rec,
and
these
courts
have
been
doing
pickleball
for
two
years
already.
In
nearly
two
years,
pickleball
courts
have
already
been
in
use
at
eagle
rock
park
no
to
their
sparks
and
rec
knowledge.
No
noise
complaints
have
ever
been
received
so
take
that
into
account.
BT
Noise
has
apparently
not
been
bothersome
enough
to
generate
complaints
in
two
years,
and
I
doubt
in
view
of
everything,
I've
said
that
it
will
ever
be.
Another
question
raised
was
parking
and
that's
legitimate,
and
I
have
concern
for
parents
that
want
to
get
to
that
park.
There's
only
one
relatively
small
parking
lot
adjacent
to
the
playground
of
courts.
However,
parks
and
rec
knows
there
are
two
very
large
dirt
parking.
BT
Excuse
me:
dirt
parking
lots
across
the
grass
to
the
east
of
the
courts
that
will
provide
plenty
of
parking
and
they
intend
to
wreck
signs
in
the
primary
parking
lot
requiring
pickleball
players
to
use
the
dirt
plots.
I
will
fully
support
this
and
I
will
guarantee
you
all
our
members
will
as
well.
We
want
to
play
pickleball.
We
want
to
take
the
park
away
from
the
people
who
need
it.
BT
We
don't
want
to
take
the
parking
away
for
the
mothers
and
the
kids
either
now
most
important
or
more
important
than
this
is
the
fact
that
this
park
was
created
not
created
to
be
just
the
exclusive
property
of
the
neighbors.
It
is
also
a
city
park
and
was
intended
to
be
available
to
meet
the
needs
of
all
city
residents.
BT
BT
I
cut
out
a
lot
of
stuff
due
to
a
severely
limited
courts
on
the
east
side.
You've
already
heard
people
spend
an
hour
driving
to
hobble
creek
at
times
back
and
forth,
and
that's
not
environmentally
desirable,
think
of
the
cost
of
gas
and
the
carbon
emissions
and
air
pollution
caused
by
people
doing
this.
This
is
not
in
line
with
boise's
goal
of
being
a
green
city.
We
can
improve
our
environment
and
save
citizens
a
lot
of
money
and
time
by
converting
the
parks
at
eagle
rock
bear
with
me.
BF
BT
Cover
the
cost
of
portable
nets.
No,
that's
my
wife
she's
had
this
discussion
with
me.
I
I
did
that
and
I
changed
my
speech
and,
let's
not
go
into
it.
Tennis
play
players
can
play
anywhere
in
town.
Pickleball
players
cannot,
as
the
following
figures
will
show,
and
I've
already
told
you
there's
64
to
port
another
thing
to
re
64
quarts
to
four
on
the
north
side
of
the
river
from
50s
52nd
west,
all
the
way
to
the
east
side
of
the
river
by
the
21
bridge.
That's
11
miles.
BT
There
are
zero
zero
dedicated
pickleball
courts.
There
are
none
along
state
street,
none
in
the
north
end.
None
in
the
east
end
none
in
harris
ranch,
but
there
are
many
many
tennis
courts
once
again
that
is
not
equitable.
I
ask
you
to
keep
all
these
things
in
mind.
We
don't
want
to
take
courts
from
tennis,
but
we
are
forced
to
ask
you
to
help
us
by
converting
these
two
courts
to
six
pickleball
courts.
You
can
solve
a
great
need
at
almost
minimal
cost
of
nine
thousand
bucks.
BT
So,
finally,
I
suggest
respectfully
that
you
are
the
boise
city
parks.
Commission,
not
simply
the
eagle
rock
parks
commission,
you
were
selected
to
represent
the
interests
of
all
boise
citizens,
not
just
those
of
one
neighborhood.
Installing
six
pickleball
courts
will
dramatically
improve
the
lives
of
hundreds,
if
not
thousands,
of
boise
citizens.
It
will
also
save
the
city
nearly
1.2
million.
It's
easy
to
tell
you
to
go,
build
six
courts,
but
you're
not
going
to
have
the
money.
BT
BU
Hello,
my
name
is
richard
kogan.
I
live
at
2563,
bircheson,
boise,
idaho
83706,
and
I
am
here
to
support
option
two,
the
conversion
of
two
tennis
courts
to
six
pickleball
courts.
BU
I
started
playing
pickleball
about
two
years
ago
through
boise
parks
and
rec.
I
took
one
of
their
classes
at
eagle,
rock
and
I've
noticed
that
a
lot
of
the
people
I
took
the
classes
with
have
continued
on
playing
pickleball
and
have
brought
their
friends
in
to
play.
Pickleball-
and
I
play
quite
often
you
know,
probably
four
or
five
times
a
week.
BU
Finding
a
court
to
play
on
is
very
difficult.
I've
been
to
manito
I've,
never
been
to
hopple
creek
or
over
to
willow
lanes,
because
I
live
in
the
other
end
of
town,
the
end
of
town,
where
there
are
no
pickleball
courts,
and
but
I
have
been
to
iraq.
Like
I
say
for
lessons
every
time
we
play
it's
always
difficult
to
find
a
place
to
go.
We
have
gone
to
one
place,
it's
been
full
we've,
either
driven
or
ridden
our
bikes
to
a
second
place.
BU
It's
been
full
and
I've,
even
as
a
third
place.
I've
gone
to
ivy,
wild
and
just
played
on
a
tennis
court
where
there's
no
stripes,
no
special
nets
or
anything
and
there's
never
a
tennis
player.
There.
I've
been
there
twice
to
play
pickleball
and
there's
no
one
there,
but
all
the
other
courts
are
just
full.
BU
I
think
we
need
more
pickleball
courts.
The
number
of
players
has
taken
off
in
the
two
years
that
I've
played
and
I
see
new
faces
all
the
time.
One
other
thing
when
chris
was
speaking
he
talked
about
you
know
going
spending
an
hour
going
out
to
hobble
creek.
BU
I
was
just
thinking
about
that
and
I
did
some
crunching
of
numbers
because
I
like
to
do
that
sometimes,
and
it
would
take
one
gallon
of
gas
to
drive
from
east
boise
to
hubble
creek
about
five
dollars.
If
20
people
did
that
a
day,
that'd
be
a
hundred
dollars
in
two
weeks
or
15
days
should
have
paid
the
cost
of
gas
and
everything
would
have
people
building
converting
one
of
those
courts
in
15
days
90
days,
the
money
that
was
spent
traveling
around
would
pay
for
the
whole
thing.
BV
Hi,
my
name
is
nick
gableman.
I
live
at
1414
east
washington,
street
boyce,
guide
083712.
BV
I
grew
up
and
live
in
the
east
end.
I
teach
tennis
for
boise
park
and
rec.
This
is
my
second
summer
doing
so
I
play
on
my
college
tennis,
team,
lanfield
university
and
plan
to
coaches
my
profession,
my
challenging
rewarding
path
that
I'm
on
started
at
the
walking
or
biking
path.
That
leads
from
my
home
to
the
tennis
courts
at
eagle
rock
park.
I
would
walk
on
that
path
on
my
bike
quickly
and
easily
arriving
at
tennis
courts.
BV
This
is
the
park
in
my
youth,
my
neighborhood,
where
I
worked
to
perfect
my
tennis
game.
In
the
winter,
our
family
could
play
at
bsu
indoor
bubbles
with
our
membership.
That
has
been
closed
since
the
start
of
the
pandemic.
My
student
membership
was
eliminate
the
boisview
racquet
club
in
favor
of
year-round
student
members.
We
are
now
on
the
waiting
list
continue
to
rely
on
the
eagle
rock
courts.
I
play
twice
a
week,
at
least
at
my
job.
BV
I
teach
to
inspire
young
players
and
I
want
them
to
develop
their
own
game,
have
fun,
learn
from
it
and
play
for
their
school
teams.
I
want
them
to
enjoy
around
their
neighborhood
park
without
barriers.
Just
like
I
did.
It
feels
like
a
home
to
me.
It's
everything
when
I
toss
the
ball.
It's
just,
I
feel
so
at
peace,
and
I
understand
the
noise
can
be
a
problem.
There's
a
huge
area
of
grass.
I
know
it
costs
a
lot
more
to
do
the
whole
resurface
long
term.
BV
I
don't
know
if
making
one
court
or
the
other
keeping
one
tennis
is
the
best
decision
with
that
big
field
a
little
bit
further
away
from
the
houses.
I'd
also
like
to
bring
up
bagley
park
east
end
two
courts.
I've
gone
I've
never
seen
anybody
play
on
huge
field.
BV
BW
It's
been
a
been
a
long
evening
I'll
try
to
keep
this
short,
but
I
think
I
have
something
new
to
that
hasn't
been
said.
Yet
after
all
these
fine
talking
points,
which
is
that
boise
is
known,
the
parks
and
recreation
is
you
do
a
great
job
for
all
of
us
taxpayers,
but
you
also
do
a
super
job
for
all
the
visitors
that
come
into
the
city,
and
I
think
john
had
mentioned.
BW
He
was
on
the
pickleball
courts
this
morning
with
someone
from
houston,
I've
been
out
there
playing
with
people,
who've
come
into
the
city
from
all
different
states,
and
when
I
travel,
I
bring
my
paddle
with
me,
my
wife
and
I
bring
our
paddles.
We
were
just
in
portland
maine.
BW
We
google,
where
are
the
open
courts
open
play?
We
go
there
in
the
morning.
We
make
friends
immediately.
You've
got
ambassadors
here.
The
pickleball
community
is
extremely
friendly,
not
just
here
in
boise
but
all
over
the
country
and
when
people
come
from
outside
to
visit,
boise
and
pickleball
players
come
and
they
bring
their
paddles.
They
find
the
places
to
play
and
they
meet
these
fine
folks
that
are
behind
me.
BW
Today
we
are
ambassadors
for
the
city,
and
so
I
am
for
converting
eagle
rock
to
dedicated
pickleball
courts,
because
it's
not
only
good
for
it's
not
only
equitable.
It's
not
good
for
taxpayers
the
players
here,
but
it's
great
for
people
who
come
to
boise
to
visit
and
enjoy
the
outdoors
and
the
recreation
that
we
have.
Thank
you
thank.
BX
It's
a
sign,
you
finished
and
that's
not
a
good
sign
for
me.
So
besides
having
to
look
at
my
mug
on
the
screen
so
in
the
dark.
No,
I
I
felt
compelled
to
come
this
evening
and
advocate
for
the
six
dedicated
pickleball
courts.
BX
I
have
a
a
little
different
take
on
everything
that
has
been
said
tonight,
because
I
echo
everything
that's
been
said
on
behalf
of
the
pickleball
community.
I
I
live
down
by
the
kristen
armstrong
municipal
park
right
across
the
street
in
those
townhouses
there.
BX
BX
I
feel
much
like
those
kids
that
are
across
the
street.
Just
learning
soccer
I
was
able
to
learn
a
new
sport,
one
of
which
I
didn't
have
many
in
my
life,
but
I've
learned
to
not
only
love
the
sport
but
the
exercise,
the
community
spirit-
everything
that's
been
echoed
here
tonight.
I
I
am
grateful
for
that.
BX
The
other
thing
is,
I
I've
listened
to
a
lot
of
the
going
back
and
forth
of
of
the
pros,
the
cons
and
and
so
on,
and
I
I
feel
like
that.
Obviously
we
don't
have
enough
courts.
It's
been
brought
up
several
times
that
this
is
a
band-aid
for
bringing
enough
pickleball
courts.
But
if
you
want
to
use
that
metaphor
of
a
band-aid,
I
will
use
that.
Why
do
we
use
a
band-aid
to
either
stop
the
bleeding
or
to
cover
something
that
has
been
injured
or
needs
to
be
taken
care
of?
BX
And
in
this
case
right
now,
we
only
have
the
time
and
the
the
money
necessary
for
us
to
be
able
to
have
enough
pickleball
courts
based
on
a
budget
that
the
boise
parks
has
right
now
and
that
will
that
could
take
place
at
eagle
rock
park,
and
I
would
advocate
for
that-
and
I
hope,
as
we
finish
off
this
evening,
that
that's
a
general
feeling
that
all
we
want
to
do
is
be
able
to
continue
that
community
spirit
and
hopefully
be
able
to
leave
a
legacy
behind
of
those
who
have
played
this.

Hello,
my
name
is
amy
braun.
Thank
you
for
being
here.
Of
course,
we
sure
appreciate
your
decision.
Hopefully
it
will
be
in
favor
of
the
converting
the
two
courts
to
six
courts.
I'm
sorry.

South
victoria

boise,
idaho
83705
thanks,
I
am
in
favor
of
the
sex
courts.
I
have
only
been
playing
since
february
of
this
year,
so
I'm
not
very
good,
but
these
80
year
olds,
these
70
year
olds
and
these
60
year
olds
are
kicking
my
butt
at
pickleball,
and
you
know
what
we
absolutely
love
the
sport
like.
BY
I
said
we
just
started
in
february,
but
we
went
out
and
bought
four
other
rackets
so
that
just
if
somebody
ends
up
at
the
court
at
the
same
time
we
are
and
they're
just
new
beginners,
we
hand
them
one
of
our.
You
know
rackets
and
let
them
play
with
us.
So
we
get
them
involved.
They
love
the
sport
they
keep
coming
back.
So
I
would
like
to
offer
you
guys
one
of
my
paddles
please
come
and
play
with
us.
BY
You'll
love
it
just
as
much
as
we
do
and
please
please,
let's
do
the
six
courts.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank.

BZ
Without
the
and
without
the
hat,
it's
kind
of
fun,
because
now
he
can
kind
of
recognize
each
other
in
street
clothes
hi.
My
name
is
nancy
hag.
I
live
at
1902,
south
lake
haran
lane
83706
I
played
pickleball
for
way
longer
than
my
ability
would
show.
I
probably
paid
played
eight
years,
and
very
simply,
I
just
wanted
to
give
you
an
idea
as
to
expand
upon
the
wait
time.
Last
thursday
I
was
at
manitou,
which
is
once
again
the
only
place
in
the
eastern
part
of
boise
that
has
four.
BZ
Yes,
four
courts
waited
two
hours
to
play
three
ten
minute
games.
BZ
That
gives
you
an
idea
as
the
sort
of
wait
time
that
we
have
when
there
are
ladders
there
that
are
put
on
by
boise
rec,
they
take
up
three
of
our
four
courts
and
that
delays
us
even
further
so
once
again,
just
impressing
upon
the
huge
need
desperate
now
to
do
something.
Very
very
significant
people
have
mentioned
how
friendly
pickleball
players
are
just
a
case
in
point.
When
four
people
go
on
a
pickleball
court,
you
introduce
yourself
to
the
other
players.
BZ
I
don't
know
what
other
sport
people
are
that
friendly
and
that
collegial,
where
you
will
just
introduce
yourselves
to
whoever's
there
and
then
you
go
on
and
have
a
great
game.
Very
simply.
This
is
not
a
war
of
rackets
or
a
battle
of
the
paddles.
This
is
a
plead
for
equity
and
a
plead
for
vision
for
the
future.
AF
I
was
hoping
to
get
some
more.
I
won't
prolong
it,
but
my
my
address
is
6310
coach
royal
lane
west
coach
in
boise
83702
I've
been
playing
pickball
for
12
years.
I
was
one
of
the
early
adopters
at
boise.
I've
lived
in
boise
since
1977
like
john
here,
and
I've
watched
the
city
of
boise's.
AF
AF
Jimmy
halliburton,
with
the
bicycling
in
boise,
he's
brought
that
up
different
visionaries,
barb
chandler
tennis
soccer
fields.
You
know
we've
got
some
world-class
recreational
opportunities
here
in
boise
and
I
think,
as
we
can
either
be
reactionary
and
kind
of
go
well.
We
need
to
take
care
of
this
right
now
or
this
that
you
know,
but
we
can
also
be
visionary.
AF
That's
what
you
guys
need
to
do
is
be
visionaries
and
what
can
boise
do
to
help
get
this
vision
of
pickleball
because
it
is
the
fastest
growing
sport
in
the
united
states
and
we've
created
meccas
in
boise
for
mountain
biking,
skiing,
soccer,
softball,
you
know
you
can
name
the
sport
volleyball.
I've
played
all
you
know,
almost
leagues
in
all
of
these,
too
I've
been
here
the
whole
time
and
I've
landed
in
pickleball
now,
and
I
just
think
that
being
a
visionary
to
see
what
could
be
done
and
what
can
happen.
AF
You
know
somebody
brought
up
the
example
of
down
at
brigham
city.
You
know
it's
a
small
town,
22
000
people,
south
of
salt
lake
city,
got
a
world-class
pickleball
facility.
I
mean
it's,
it
is,
if
you
ever
drive
by
there,
just
go
up
the
street
and
look
at
it.
It's
really
amazing,
you
know-
and
it's
you
know,
I'm
sure.
AF
I
know
it
costs
money,
but
those
are
types
of
things
that
draw
people
into
boise
and
create
economic
opportunities,
and
those
are
the
things
that
you
know
if
you
lock
on
to
what's
going
on
right
now
with
pickleball,
and
it's
only
going
to
get
bigger
and
bigger
and
bigger.
You
know,
most
of
us
won't
be
here
in
10
years,
probably
to
enjoy
the
fruits
of
that.
AF
N
I'm
just
supposed
to
say
that
I
support
the
six
courts,
but
I
will
say
it's
really
sad
that
these
people
that
live
in
that
area
can't
understand
that
you
know
they
can
ride
their
bikes.
It's
not.
I
drive
on
warm
springs
all
the
time
they
could
ride
their
their
bikes
or
do
a
family
trip
over
to
those
great
courts
that
are
by
fort
boise.
N
You
know
they
are
available
and
they're
very
nice.
For
tennis-
and
you
know
you
know
you
could
always
think
about
doing
something
like
that
for
pickleball.
If
they
don't
want
to
use
those
courts,
but
anyway
I
do
support
the
six
accords.
So
thank
you.
Thank.
P
B
Would
anyone
else
on
zoom
like
to
testify
this
evening?
Please
use
the
hand
raise
piece.
A
Okay
with
that,
I
think
we'll
close
the
public
hearing
thanks
everyone
for
coming
out
tonight.
We
appreciate
it.
It's
a
good
educational
experience.
A
We
can
read
through
the
comments,
but
having
everyone
sort
of
express
their
points
of
view
and
give
examples
is
really
helpful.
So,
from
my
perspective,
I
think
we
can
have
some
preliminary
comments
and
discussions
before
we
make
a
decision
just
real
quickly.
I
just
I'll
start
off
briefly.
I
do
think
we've
got
a
great
problem
to
the
extent
we
have
a
problem.
A
BU
A
Pretty
clear
to
me:
pickleball's
a
great
thing,
a
good
thing
growing
really
fast,
but
you
know
I
personally
fully
embrace
all
the
positive
aspects
of
the
sport
that
we've
heard,
which
is
wonderful,
community
low
cost.
A
You
know
the
social
aspects
getting
different
generations
together.
You
know
what
a
wonderful
thing
I
think
we
need
more
of
that
in
all
aspects
of
society.
So
that's
wonderful.
Also.
Clearly
the
demand
is
outpacing.
The
current
supply,
which
is
what
happens
when
people
stumble
upon
such
a
wonderful
thing
and
clearly,
if
we
could
snap
our
fingers
and
make
it
happen,
we'd
you
know
have
it
be
that
there
are
sufficient
courts,
but
you
know,
like
all.
AW
A
A
We
see
in
the
written
comments
and
the
testimony
today,
however,
that
these
tennis
courts
are
being
used
and
I
hesitate
to
fully
displace
a
user
group
in
favor
of
another.
So
my
you
know
take
or
my
preliminary
thoughts
on
this
is,
let's
not
make
perfect,
be
the
enemy
of
the
good.
I
like
incremental
progress,
so
I
would-
and
this
is
just.
T
A
Thoughts
open
for
discussion,
I
am
leaning
towards
the
hybrid
option,
which
I
think
we
have
as
option
three,
which
is
converting
the
one
court
into
two
and
with
that
happy
to
open
it
up
to
other
members
of
the
commission.
If
there's
questions,
comments,
thoughts,
etc,
we
can
have
a
discussion
before
we
move
towards
a
motion
and
a
decision.
BQ
Mr
president,
yes,
it's
kind
of
fun
to
to
listen
to
everybody's
passion,
about
pickleball,
because
we
think
in
the
boise
school
district
in
my
day,
job
we
teach
pickleball
in
elementary.
If
you
went
to
school
in
the
boise
schools
in
elementary
school,
we
we
taught
you
pickleball,
because
that's
how
we
introduce
a
rocket
sport
and
then
you
learned
how
to
play
tennis
and
now
you're
back
to
pickleball.
BQ
So
that's
that's
kind
of
the
life
cycle
of
what
we're
dealing
with
one
thing
that
that
I
just
wanted
to
share
with
the
commission
is
something
that
I've
heard
this
summer
that
I
haven't
heard.
G
BQ
BQ
BQ
BQ
It
is
so
important
that
we
have
kids
in
the
neighborhood
that
go
to
adams
elementary,
perhaps
or
roosevelt,
that
can
just
go
at
least
to
a
court
and
walk
to
it.
It
would.
It
would
certainly
break
my
heart
to
think
that
a
kid
couldn't
have
that
access,
knowing
that
the
youth
need
to
still
play
tennis.
BQ
Unfortunately,
we
don't
play
pickleball
as
an
hsa
sport.
Should
it
be
maybe
right
now
the
sport
that
they
can
play
and
go
to
districts
and
go
to
state
as
tennis
as
a
racket,
sport,
I'm
I'm
with
preston
a
little
bit
I'd
like
a
balanced
approach.
We
need
to
have
balance.
BQ
We
certainly
heard
strong
testimony
tonight
about
we
got
to
do
something
with
pickleball
and,
and
I
think
we
can
start
working
on
that
really
in
the
course
of
all
the
things
that
we've
done
with
parks
and
rec.
One
of
the
gentlemen
mentioned
you
know
when
softball
needs
to
improve.
We
improve
softball
soccer.
BQ
BQ
I
think,
through
a
course
of
time.
That's
how
we
did
it
for
all
those
other
sports
that
are
so
nice
that
we
have
in
our
city
right
now.
BQ
I
guess
my
thoughts
are:
are
the
same
of
a
kind
of
a
balanced
hybrid
still
having
tennis
available
at
eagle,
rock
and
pickleball.
A
A
Okay,
anyone
else
any
other
comments.
CA
I'll
say
a
few
words
above
the
sport.
I
recently
played
with
my
80
year
old
father
and
my
15
year
old
son,
and
we
had
a
blast.
I'm
not
very
good,
but
my
father
plays
all
the
time
and
so
love
to
see
the
sport
grow
and
really
meet
the
need
of
so
many
in
our
community.
CA
And
I'm
kind
of
in
between
the
convert
all
six
to
converting
one
of
the
tennis
courts
to
two-
and
you
know
my
fear
of
converting
all
six
is
frankly
overwhelming
a
neighborhood
park.
CA
CA
But
you
know,
I
think
the
point
was
made
by
one
of
the
gentlemen
that
the
city
has
studied
other
other
tennis
courts
and
found
this
to
be
the
best
location
for
pickleball
courts.
But
there's
with
130
other
tennis
courts.
There's
got
to
be
some
more
opportunity
to
create
at
least
some
temporary
courts
course.
CA
So
I
really
appreciate
the
great
testimony,
the
respectfulness
and
and
the
fun
that
we
had
there
and
and
with
council
member
sanchez
and
halliburton
attending
they're,
hearing
the
need
and
hopefully
can
relay
the
passion.
That's
out
there
to
those
that
are
influencing
the
budget
for
the
next
couple
of
years,
because
there's
definitely
a
need
and.
CA
Let's
see
also
we've
received
140
some
odd
pages
of
comments.
You
know
outside
of
the
testimony
that
we
heard
tonight
and
I
would
say,
there's
there's
a
maybe
a
60
40
ish
percentage
60
in
favor
of
converting
the
courts
40,
not
in
favor
of
converting
the
court.
So
you
know
there
is
a
good
number
that
we're
not
here
tonight,
testifi
testifying
that
do
use
the
courts
as
they
are
now
and
are
passionate
to
keep
them.
CA
So
I
could
be
swayed,
but
I
would
say:
yeah
either
option
two
or
three
are
the
ones
I'm
feeling
more
comfortable
with.
Thank
you.
E
Mr
president,
first
of
all
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you.
I
was
able
to
attend
the
public
meeting
we
had
regarding
some
of
this,
and
I
just
appreciate
the
time
you
guys
have
taken
to
come
out
and
let
us
know
what
your
needs
are
while
we're
giving
you
our
time,
you're
giving
yours
to
you're
sitting
here
and
you're,
you
know
taking
the
time
to
write
down
your
thoughts,
and
I
really
appreciate
that.
It's
obvious.
We
have
need
for
more
pickleball
courts.
I
mean
that
is
just
really
obvious.
E
Listening
to
the
department
it
does
sound
like
eagle
rock
is
the
best
place
in
terms
of
court
conversion,
and
I
am
with
commissioner
raber
that
you
know
I
would
love
to
just
convert
all
six
spots,
but
I
am
also
with
president
carter
that
I'm
concerned
about
displacing
current
users.
E
We
want
to
make
sure
this
park
is
usable
for
everyone
who
wants
to
use
it
and
people
who've
been
currently
using
it.
So
I'm
really
struggling
as
well,
but
I
definitely
want
to
see
some
dedicated
pickleball
courts
at
eagle
rock
and
thank
you
again
for
your
time
and
inviting
me
to
go
to
the
pickleball
field
and
see
you
guys
waiting,
because
I
did
see
that
and
it
is
a
beautiful
community
and
all
those
things
you
said
about
being
ambassadors
for
boise,
it's
true
and
we're
glad
to
have
this
community
in
our
city.
D
D
But
what
I
need
to
elaborate
on
is:
we
have
not
really
looked
beyond
this
site
at
this
time,
because
we're
working
on
refining
that
set
of
criteria
that
makes
for
a
potential
good
location
for
pickleball
courts
in
terms
of
if
there
is
a
consideration
for
another
conversion,
and
I'm
not
saying
that
at
this
point.
D
But
if
there,
if
there
is
that
out
there,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
a
very
strong
case
of
criteria
that
makes
that
conversion
doable,
but
then
also
carried
a
step
further,
that
if
there
is
a
location
where
we
could
build
courts
and
if
money
was
made
available,
where
would
be
the
ideal
place
to
do
that,
whether
it
be
in
an
existing
park
or
potentially
on
on
newly
purchased
or
donated
or
currently
in
our
inventory
dirt,
which
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
that?
In
fact,
we
have
very
very
little
of
that.
D
So
third
option
is
probably
not
as
viable
in
the
future
as
it
is
to
look
at
existing
park
sites
and
is
there
are
there
park
sites
that
green
space
could
be
converted
into
pickleball?
I
thank
your
president
chris.
I
appreciate
his
insight.
He
and
I
have
met
he's
met
with
our
team,
he's
very
passionate.
What
I
really
appreciate
and
respect
with
chris
is
that
he
wants
to
work
together.
He
doesn't
want
to
he's
not
demanding
he's.
Not
hey.
You've
got
to
do
this
for
us.
It's
just
all
facts.
D
We
know
what
those
facts
are,
though.
You're
growing
we're
behind
the
curve.
We
understand
that
that's
no
secret.
The
commission
is
fully
aware
of
what
you've
shared
with
us
this
evening,
but
it
just
confirmed
what
we
already
know,
but
I
think
our
commitment
to
you
is
that
we
get.
We
recognize
that
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
look
for
other
options,
regardless
of
what
the
commission
decides
this
evening.
D
They'll
continue
to
hear
from
us
that
we'll
be
looking
at
other
opportunities,
so
eagle
rock,
just
isn't
the
only
one
that
only
parked
that
we
would
be
looking
at.
We
need
to
refine
that
criteria.
D
I
would
volunteer
chris
to
be
involved
in
that,
so
we
can
have
those
discussions
with
him
and
your
and
your
club
and
your
organizations
on
what
makes
a
good
location
and
then
start
looking
at
at
more
sites
that
are
potential
sites.
It's
no
secret,
we
are
our
capital
budget
is
we're
in
a
deficit.
Councilmember
sanchez
could
certainly
speak
to
that,
but
over
the
next
I
believe
three
years
we're
actually
looking
at
cutting
things
out
of
that
capital
budget
in
order
to
balance
it
moving
forward.
D
So
money
is
not,
you
know,
readily
available
to
go
out
and
buy
land
build
pickleball
courts,
so
we
are
going
to
have
to
get
creative
in
in
from
an
internal
perspective
on
you
know
how
we're
going
to
solve
this
problem,
so
we'd
prefer
to
work
with
you
to
solve
it,
and
we'll
continue
to
do
that.
D
D
So
I
just
wanted
to
clarify,
as
we
said
today,
eagle
rock
is
our
is
something
that
we're
looking
at
and
that's
why
we
brought
this
forward
and
it
was
our
staff
decision
to
bring
it
forward.
I
do
want
to
point
that
out
as
well.
It
was
it
was
us
that
sat
down
and
said:
let's
we
need
to
start
solving
this
problem.
Where
could
we
do
it
at,
and
this
was
this
was
where
we?
This
is
the
site
we
came
up
with
and
then
quickly
realized.
D
We
need
to
develop
the
criteria
a
little
bit
stronger
on
what
makes
an
ideal
location
and
I've
heard
it
from
some
of
the
testimony.
It's
probably
too
small
of
a
part.
Maybe
neighborhood
parks
are
not
the
ideal
location.
I
wouldn't
argue
that
we
have
two
other
sites
that
are
neighborhood
parks
and
we
have
issues
with
that.
Sound
you
know
with
surrounding
neighbors,
so
we
certainly
have
to
take
that
into
consideration.
D
But
there
are
other
factors,
including
parking,
that
is
of
concern
as
well,
but
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
that
you
all
know
that
we
we're
we.
We
understand
the
demand
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
work
towards
the
best
we
can
to
to
meet
the
demand
and
anyone
out
there
that
has
money
that
wants
to
throw
our
way
or
chris's
way.
He
and
I've
had
these
conversations,
we're
open
for
business
to
to
take
donations,
but
it
has
to
be
significant,
and
chris
gave
you
the
1.2
million.
D
That's
kind
of
what
we're
using
as
rule
of
thumb,
is
thousand
dollars
a
quart
so
and
it's
only
going
to
continue
to
go
up.
So
you
know
if
we
know
businesses
out
there
that
are
really
interested
in
seeing
this
sport
grow
and
the
city
we
can
find
funding,
we
can
do
matches.
Potentially
we
want
to
make
sure
those
doors
are
also
left
open
as
well
again
I'll
just
leave
you
with
the
fact
that
we
understand
and
we're
committed
to
continue
to
work
to
to
try
to
solve
the
problem.
Yeah
two
courts.
D
If
that's
a
decision
that's
made,
and
I've
heard
that
from
the
president
certainly
sounds
like
that's
not
going
to
solve
the
problem.
We
know
that
I'll
just
tell
you
we're
going
to
try
to
nickel
and
dime
this
the
best
we
can
now
until
something
on
a
much
larger
scale
comes
to
fruition.
CA
Question
director
holloway:
is
there
any
park,
rules
that
prohibit
bringing
your
own
net
and
striping
on
tennis
courts
that
aren't
being
used.
D
There
is
a
rule
to
bring
your
own
striping.
They
I
believe
there
is
a
removable
magnetic
striping
and
I'd
defer
to.
I
believe,
paula
lawson
is
still
here,
but
yeah.
We
discourage
the
taping
because
it
does
tear
up
the
pain
on
the
court.
D
But
that
really
is
is
the
only
the
only
rule,
and
I
again
I
don't
have
the
number
in
front
of
me
and
how
many
courts
we
have
that
we
have
the
ability
to
have
shared
use
and
what
we
get
into
again
and
I
I
don't
want
to
go
down
a
rabbit
hole
here
with
the
commission,
but
we
still
do
see
activity
on
tennis
courts
so
even
on
the
ones
that
we
have
the
shared
use
there
potentially
is
conflict
with
our
tennis
players,
so
we
have
to
work
through
that
with
with
pickleball
players
too.
D
C
Mr
president,
mma
thank
you
director,
holloway
for
giving
us
that
additional
information.
I
really
do
appreciate,
knowing
that
the
department
has.
This
is
a
fairly
high
priority
in
thinking
about
how
we
develop
future
parks
and
how
we
can
modify
within
the
existing
inventory
to
serve
obviously
the
the
needs
of
the
community,
and
I
do
appreciate
again
everyone's
time
this
evening
and
sharing
with
us
for
me.
Personally,
I
do.
C
I
think
I
am
along
the
lines
of
my
fellow
commissioners
that
this
particular
proposal
before
us
this
evening
has
to
be
balanced
with,
like
the
scale
of
the
issue,
that
this
is
indeed
a
neighborhood
park,
and
what
we've
heard
from
that
local
community
to
be
weighed
against
the
needs
of
the
greater
community
as
well.
P
A
Okay,
everyone,
I
think,
we've
heard
from
everyone
and
we're
probably
ready
for
a
motion.
A
Okay,
is
there
a
second
second
okay,
any
discussion
on
the
motion.
CA
Just
that,
I
think,
with
all
decisions
that
we
make,
they
can
certainly
be
revisited
in
the
future
and
as
inexpensive
as
this
is
to
convert
tennis
courts
into
pickleball
courts.
If
you
can
convert
them
back
to
tennis
courts,
if
we
find
that
magic
location
in
check
to
build
a
big
facility
which
is
needed,
but
we
could
also
convert
this
to
six
in
the
future.
A
Yeah-
and
I
would
just
add
to
that
that
we
ought
to
keep
a
close
eye
on
the
parking.
I
do
know
that
the
parking
there's
very
limited
parking
there
as
it
is,
and
we
can
keep
an
eye
on
that
going
forward.
Any
other
discussion
on
the
motion.
E
Sort
of
related
to
the
motion
regarding
the
parking
we
did
have
one
person
who
shared,
who
did
we
were
talking
about.
We
welcomed
questions
during
testimony,
but
that
we'd
revisit
them
and
she
had
a
question
about
the
state
giving
permission
to
use
perfect
parking
at
the
lab.
Do
we
know
anything
about
that
director
hallway.
D
Mr
president,
commissioner,
johnson,
no
we
have
not
had
those
discussions
primarily
and,
and
we
we
will,
but
primarily
because
we're
seeing
what
has
been
anticipated
is
the
same
kind
of
use.
We
have
now
and
we're
not
experiencing
any
any
parking
difficulties
at
this
point,
so
the
assumption
would
be
that
if
you,
if
you
select
an
option
to
convert
all
six
courts,
then
we
would
need
to
have
those
conversations.
I
don't
think
it
would
be
a
problem
I
think
there
are.
There
is
parking
availability.
D
We
just
have
to
get
creative
with
that.
I
think
with
option
three,
I
think
we'll
be
we're
not
going
to
have
a
a
parking
issue.
A
Any
other
discussion
on
the
motion
all
right.
Well,
I
think
we're
ready
for
a
vote.
Should
this
be
a
roll
call,
though,
if
you
will
do,
we
know
we're
just
okay,
all
right
all
in
favor
of
the
motion
and
again,
the
motion
is
to
approve
the
option
of
converting
one
tennis
court
into
two
pickleball
courts
in
favor
of
the
motion
signify
by
saying
aye,
aye,
aye,
aye
aye
and
commissioner
stidham.
If
you'd
do
it
on
the
chat,
oh
there,
you
go.
Okay,
any
opposed.
A
And
the
motion
carries
okay,
that
I
think
we
don't
have
any
executive
session
items
and
so
now
I'd
take
a
motion
to
adjourn.
