A
Before
moving
to
approval
of
the
agenda,
I
did
want
to
mention
our
newest
member
of
the
accounts
of
the
council.
Our
commission
rather
is
Maribel
right,
Duran
she's,
going
to
be
our
representative
from
the
Palm
Springs
High
School,
so
she
will
be
joining
us.
Unfortunately,
she
may
have
been
held
up
today,
so
we
will
welcome
her
in
person
next
week
and
we
have
our
liaison
with
us
today.
A
A
A
F
You
so
much
thank
you
for
having
me
I'm
excited
to
be
your
liaison
I
volunteered
for
it
I'm
some
happy
to
be
here.
I'm,
sorry,
I
haven't
been
able
to
be
here
before
I'm,
the
liaison
for
maybe
a
dozen
or
so
different
Commission's
and
groups.
But
this
is
really
important
to
me
and
your
work
is
and
I'm
here
to
support
your
work
and
hear
from
you
how
I
can
best
advance
your
policies
to
City
Council.
F
Your
chair
and
I
had
talked
before
about
time
to
you
know,
work
together
and
having
a
more
streamlined
process
to
bring
things
from
commissions
to
City
Council,
because,
as
a
former
commissioner
I
know,
sometimes
things
don't
move
forward
and
the
way
that
you
want,
or
you
might
not
have
a
clear
process
to
get
to
City
Council,
and
so
that's
why
our
City
Council
decided
to
do
liaisons
this
way
and
so
that's
sort
of
a
new
process
for
our
City
Council.
So
just
to
have
clear
sort
of
rules
and
responsibilities.
F
You
know
I'm
not
able
to
attend
every
meeting
and
in
fact,
I
work
9:00
to
5:00,
and
so
this
timing
of
the
meeting
is
sometimes
difficult
for
those
of
us
who
work
but
I'm
always
here
for
you.
If
you
need
me
so
I
brought
my
cards
with
my
cell
phone
number
for
all
of
you.
If
you
can
reach
out
to
me,
email
me.
F
If
you
want
me
specifically
at
a
meeting
for
a
specific
agenda
item,
have
the
chair
or
one
of
you
email
me
and
let
me
know,
and
I
will
be
here
for
you,
okay,
so
I'm.
Thank
you
for
all
of
your
work.
I
know
we
have
a
number
of
items
to
discuss
today
and
I'm
here
to
listen
in
and
and
support
your
work
and
report
back
to
City
Council.
F
One
item,
commissioner
called
an
auto
asked
me
to
look
into
the
issue
of
renaming
a
field
at
DeMuth
Park
for
the
local
kid
who
passed
away
and
so
I
asked
the
city
manager
in
the
city
attorney
about
that
issue.
You
asked
me
and
I
looked
into
it
and
I'd
like
to
report
back
that
the
city
attorney
said
that
there's
no
specific
issue,
there's
no,
you
know
rules
or
ordinances
preventing
that
act.
It's
something
that,
as
you
know,
the
city
hasn't
done
before.
F
G
A
F
Thank
you
so
much
you're
welcome
and
you
know,
because
of
the
Brown
Act
I
can't
go
around
and
see
how
my
fellow
city,
council
members
I
feel
about
that.
You
know
I'm
supportive
of
it
and
you
know
not
saying
how
I
would
vote
but
I'm
supportive
of
that
in
general.
So
I
think
that
you
should
bring
it
forward
and
then
we
can
see
what
we
can
do
and
what
council
wants
to
do.
Iris.
A
C
F
So
that's
why
I
said
in
general,
I
think
it's
something
worth
you
considering
and
I
would
hear
your
recommendation
I
think
that's
the
role
of
these
Commission's
as
you
do
a
lot
of
the
hard
work
frankly
of
hearing
that
and
and
wrestling
with
a
lot
of
the
policy
issues
and
then
making
a
recommendation
for
City
Council.
So
that's
why
I
said
I,
don't
know
how
I
would
formally
vote,
but
I
think
it's
definitely
worth
a
discussion
and
you
all
to
make
a
recommendation
on
a
lot
of
those
issues
that
you
see.
E
Thank
you.
I
just
have
a
question
as
a
follow-up
and
I'm
just
wondering
if
the
city
is
actually
looking
at
naming
other
areas
inside
the
city,
whether
it
be
a
park
or
a
rec
or
pavilion,
and
if
you're
creating
policies
around
that
I
would
just
ask
that
we
be
able
to
meet
with
those
people.
You
know,
as
we
start
to
craft
our
recommendations
for
that,
to
make
sure
that
it
is
a
much
larger
conversation.
Yeah.
F
So
we
do
have
a
subcommittee
on
fundraising
and
that's
councilmember
Coors
and
Mayor
Pro,
Tem,
Roberts
I,
believe
so
that's
not
me.
So
they
are
looking
at
different
opportunities
for
naming,
for
example,
I'm
on
the
downtown
Park
subcommittee,
and
that
is
something
we're
considering.
So
it
is
a
larger
conversation
for
the
city.
The
city
manager
probably
is
a
more
comprehensive
answer
on
that.
A
Any
other
questions,
thank
you
very
much
and
we'd
like
you
to
stay
for
as
long
as
you
possibly
can,
but
if
you
need
to,
we
understand
that
you've
got
other
responsibilities.
So
thank
you
now.
What
I'd
like
to
do
is
move
into
public
comment.
This
time
has
been
set
aside
for
members
of
the
public
to
address
Parks
and
Recreation
Commission
on
agenda
items
and
items
of
general
interests
within
the
subject
matter:
jurisdiction
of
the
Commission.
A
Although
the
Commission
values
your
comments
pursuant
to
the
Brown
Act,
it
generally
cannot
take
action
on
any
items
not
listed
or
posted
on
the
agenda.
Each
person
will
have
three
minutes
to
speak
and
right
next
to
Christie
is
the
special
chair
that
we
always
have
our
our
commissioners.
Our
guests
Pete
sit
in
I,
always
point
out
to
that
chair
because
it
looks
a
little
different,
we'll
turn
the
light
and
we'd
like
to
move
through
this
relatively
quickly.
A
H
My
name
is
Dean
man,
Johnny
I'm,
the
USA
pickleball
ambassador
for
Palm
Springs,
my
wife
and
I
Nancy
run
the
Duluth
Park
indoor
pickleball
workshop
and
the
James
Oh
Jessie
pickleball
workshop
five
days
a
week
from
7
to
1.
Please
come
out
and
see
us
I'm
here
today
to
to
answer
any
questions
regarding
the
pickleball
in
the
park
as
well
as
in
the
gyms.
I
also
want
to
bring
you
up
to
date.
On
our
referee,
international
referee
training
school,
which
we
are
holding
at
the
James
O
Jessie
Center
on
Saturdays.
H
We
need
to
train
200
referees
between
now
November
for
the
four
thousand
players
who
are
coming
to
any
Wells
tennis
gardens
to
the
national
pickleball
tournament.
So
we've
rented
the
gym
$500
a
day.
We
hope
to
have
about
twenty
sessions
there
over
the
next
several
months
for
months.
I
think
it
is.
We
have
and
we're
doing
15
per
day,
including
one
youth
from
James
Jessie
a
15
year
old
they're,
paying
five
dollars
per
match,
so
there's
opportunity
for
them
to
the
referees
to
make
money
and
offset
their
costs.
H
We're
also
teaching
the
youth
how
to
place
taped
lines
for
our
courts,
and
currently
we
have
over
400
members
at
the
Duluth
Park
at
$38
per
person.
It's
about
thirty
eight
hundred
a
year-
and
this
is
our
third
year
we're
going
into
and
there's
a
hundred
members
now
at
the
jail
J
Unity
Center
for
pickleball.
We.
H
We
have
run
Schmeck
here,
who's
gonna
speak
shortly,
he's
been
teaching
at
the
Duluth
Park
gym
for
free
every
Monday.
The
issue
is:
we've
been
coming
up
with
between
two
and
five
new
pickleball
players
who
wish
to
learn
and
Ron's
been
teaching
them,
but
this
is
been
going
for
three
years,
so
we
have
a
lot
of
pickleball
players,
who've
learned
to
play
and
very
few
courts
to
play
on
worse,
you're.
Also
gonna
hear
from
a
very
new
member,
our
newest
member
Shonda
and
she'll.
Give
you
her
experiences
with
coming
to
pickleball.
H
I
will
also
like
to,
lastly
give
you
a
first-person
account
later
of
my
experiences
at
ruth
hardy
park
playing
pickleball,
and
I'm
sure
you
have
a
lot
of
questions
regarding
that
so
save
time
for
the
rest
of
the
speakers.
I
appreciate
your
attention
and
your
concerned
with
giving
us
more
pickleball
courts
in
Palm
Springs.
Thank
you.
I
I
I
bear
no
ill
will
towards
the
pickleball
players
and
they
sympathize
with
their
dilemma
to
find
suitable
facilities
to
play
their
game,
but
I
wish
to
state
emphatically
that
pickleball
and
tennis
cannot
coexist
on
the
same
courts
and
please
allow
me
to
explain
tennis,
as
you
may
or
may
not
know,
is
a
relatively
quiet.
Sport,
there's
very
little
yelling
or
screaming
by
the
players
or
the
fans
during
a
tennis
match.
I
I
Tennis
is
a
game
of
focus
and
concentration
and
tennis
matches
that
I've
personally
played
in
over
the
last
month
at
Ruth,
Aarti
Park.
We
have
had
to
stop
in
the
middle
of
the
play,
because
the
noise
level
is
so
loud
and
I'm
playing
two
or
three
courts
over
it's
so
loud
that
it
distracts
us
and
we
can't
continue
the
play
until
they
finish
with
the
noise.
I
Another
reason
why
pickleball
cannot
coexist
with
tennis
is
the
sheer
number
of
players
on
two
courts.
If
you've
been
over
there
to
see
it,
there
are
sixteen
players
playing
four
games
at
the
same
time
with
15
to
20
people
on
the
sidelines
inside
and
outside
of
the
courts
yelling
screaming
talking
cheering.
Last
week
there
was
a
dog
barking
incessantly,
as
he
was
tied
up
to
the
fence,
running
up
and
down
the
fence.
At
the
same
time,
Ruth
Hardy
Park
has
long
been
known
as
a
tennis
destination
for
players
from
all
over
the
world.
I
A
J
Hello,
my
name
is
Michael
Brown
I'm,
a
citizen
of
Palm
Springs.
First
I'd
like
to
thank
the
board
members
for
the
public
surface.
I
know
too
often
can
seem
like
a
thankless
job.
I
did
not
recognize
the
description
that
the
gentleman
just
gave
you
for
what
happens
on
pickleball
courts
being
an
avid
player
I'm,
not
sure
where
he's
playing
but
I
am
not
familiar
with
almost
anything.
He
described,
I've
been
a
resident
of
Palm
Springs
for
11
years.
J
If
you
do
the
math
you'll
notice
that
I
arrived
in
2007
when
Pop
Springs
was
on
life
support
the
town,
the
north
end
of
town
was
essentially
shuttered.
The
old
defunct
mall
sat
right
in
the
middle
of
town.
The
anchored
corner
where
Lulu's
is
located
was
closed
down
for
the
fourth
time
and
the
post
barely
or
the
town
barely
out
of
pulse
now,
11
years
later
saw
Palm
Springs
is
on
a
roll
gaining
both
national
and
international
attention
and
a
huge
surge
in
prosperity.
J
We're
now
at
a
critical
juncture
for
the
city
as
the
new
identity
for
Palm
Springs
is
developing
for
the
coming
decades,
and
this
is
truly
an
important
time.
The
opportunity
to
mold
a
new
image
so
rarely
comes
around,
and
the
Parks
and
Recreation
Committee
now
has
a
chance
to
play
a
major
role
in
creating
this
identity.
If
there
was
a
sport
that
fits
perfectly
the
demographic
demographic
for
both
the
city
and
its
tourists,
what
would
it
be
if
this
fort
was
perfectly
suited
for
outdoor
lifestyle?
J
What
if
this
sport
could
be
picked
up
and
played
joyfully
almost
immediately
by
almost
anyone?
But
if
this
sport
can
be
played
by
all
and
almost
no
ongoing
cost?
What?
If
the
sport
was
growing
and
exploding
all
across
the
country
by
leaps
and
Browns?
What
if
this
work
could
bring
tourists
to
town
for
everything
from
tournaments
to
outdoor
play
nine
months
of
the
year,
while
the
rest
of
the
country
is
in
hibernation?
You
do
realize,
as
was
just
mentioned,
that
the
National
Championship
is
played
just
a
couple
doors
down
in
Indian
Wells,
this
November.
J
What
if
the
sport
fits
like
a
glove
palm
springs,
biking
and
hiking
culture?
What
if
the
sport
was
an
ideal
complement
to
Palm
Springs
desire
to
be
known
as
a
place
for
health
and
wellness?
The
name
of
the
sport
is,
of
course,
pickleball.
The
beautiful
thing
about
this
is
in
this
age
of
city
budget
austerity.
Palm
springs
can
reap
all
of
this
at
almost
no
cost
by
simply
repurposing
some
of
the
many
unused
tennis
courts
and
our
public
parks.
How
unused
are
these
courts?
J
The
court
space
at
DeMuth
Park
is
divided
equally
between
tennis
and
pickleball.
On
a
day
during
the
season,
a
couple
of
hundred
people
used
the
courts
for
pickleball,
while
a
dozen
might
use
the
courts.
For
tennis,
the
court
space
at
Ruth,
Hardy
Park,
is
all
devoted
to
gamut,
to
tennis,
with
most
courts
sitting
empty
almost
all
day
long.
J
K
B
K
Not
only
concerned
about
tiny
tots
being
eliminated,
but
also
all
the
after
school
programs
and
many
other
programs
that
are
held
at
the
pavilion
if
the
state
preschool
takes
over.
What
baffles
me
is
how
the
district
can
comfortably
end
the
programs,
especially
since
the
after-school
programs
that
benefit
many
of
their
own
students
from
the
area
schools
through
PS
USD.
K
On
top
of
that,
the
income
slate
for
the
state
preschool
may
not
apply
to
some
of
us
I
for
one
will
not
be
told
that
if
my
family
makes
more
than
the
highest
late
that
we
should
be
able
to
afford
a
private
preschool
first,
nobody
knows
each
one
of
our
financial
responsibilities.
Nor
is
it
the
business
of
anyone.
My
point
being
is:
why
will
this
state
preschool
be
a
better
program
at
the
pavillion,
then
the
tiny
tots
program
I
have
no
problem
with
the
district
opening
a
preschool
where
they're.
K
There
obviously
must
be
some
financial
kickback
just
go
put
it
somewhere
else.
Why
put
the
district
or
why
must
the
district
try
to
fix
something
that
isn't
broken,
find
it
elsewhere?
If
portables
are
not
doable,
then
maybe
look
at
one
of
the
many
vacant
buildings
within
the
city.
This
city
does
not
have
much
for
kids.
Why
take
away
the
only
thing
the
city
has
that
gives
our
children
a
chance
to
make
friends
memories
and
make
this
city
a
well-rounded
community.
I
beg
you
to.
K
Hello,
I
am
Julie
Estrada,
Palm,
Springs
resident
DejaVu
regarding
tiny
tots
again
so
Palm
Springs
Unified
the
takeover.
First,
it
was
headstart
hell.
They
want
to
do
a
state
preschool.
Some
of
you
have
already
made
up
your
minds,
unfortunately,
and
we
hope
to
change
your
minds,
but
the
state
preschool
is
still
a
takeover.
An
elimination
of
a
program
that's
been
in
place
for
40
years.
K
My
son,
attended
eighteen
years
ago,
was
just
there
at
his
sister's
pre-school
graduation
and
what
a
shame
that
some
of
the
teachers
positions
would
be
eliminated
because
they
would
of
course
be
bringing
in
their
own
teachers
and
it
would
be
a
snowball
effect
and
the
city
employees
are
also
Union
attorneys,
and
you
know:
I
ran
it
by
my
attorney
and
friend
in
Los.
Angeles
who's,
an
educational
law
specialist-
and
you
know
he
said
well.
Their
union
attorney
will
probably
sue.
So
nobody
thought
about
that.
K
The
repercussions
because
they're
represented
by
the
Union
and
Palm
Springs
Unified,
needs
to
just
back
off
leave
the
city's
recreation
department
alone.
It's
been
in
place
for
40
years,
I
mean
they
have
other
options
and
they're
just
relentless
with
this
takeover.
So
in
addition,
none
of
us
I,
you
know
my
daughter-
is
moving
on
to
kindergarten,
but
the
other
families
that
I
know
they.
They
don't
qualify
for
this,
and
you
know
family
of
three
family
of
four.
The
numbers
are
right
here:
I'll
leave
this
with
you.
K
They're
proposing
people
pay
two
hundred
fifty,
instead
of
110
a
month.
If
a
family
of
three
makes
over
eighty-five
thousand
or
over
eighty
nine
thousand
for
a
family
of
four,
so
III
don't
know
if
they
think
that's
you
know.
Why?
Should
people
lose
a
quality
of
lifestyle?
What
about
quality
of
life?
Should
we
pull
our
kids
out
of
dance,
Little
League
so
that
we
can
them
to
private
school?
K
You
know,
I
mean
that's
ridiculous,
so
a
lot
of
families
would
be
affected
by
this
and
it
would
really
be
shameful
if
these
kids
and
my
daughter's
peers
and
these
other
families
don't
have
this
option
to
send
their
kids
to
a
program.
That's
been
in
place
for
40
years.
It's
it's
just
wrong
on
so
many
levels.
You
know
and
it's
a
monopoly
takeover
by
the
school
district
and
I
hope
they
do
get
sued.
If
it
happens,
that's
all
I
have
to
say
and
thank
you.
L
I'm
ron
Schmeck,
thank
you
for
listening
to
me.
I
am
an
instructor
here
in
the
desert.
I
teach
almost
at
every
place
in
the
desert.
I
even
teach
the
professional
tennis
players
how
to
teach
pickleball.
We
have
over
12
professional
tennis
players
that
have
converted
all
their
country
clubs
into
pickleball.
It
is
becoming
more
popular
than
tennis.
Most
of
the
clubs
they'll
have
like
where
I
live.
We
have
almost
600
pickleball
players
and
through
in
four
years
for
25
years,
they've
got
a
hundred
and
eighty
tennis
players.
L
L
He
signed
a
five-year
contract
and
put
up
a
bunch
of
money
to
promote
pickleball
here
in
the
desert,
he's
going
to
build
us
45
new
courts,
which
is
amazing,
that's
a
few
million
dollars
there,
but
anyway
the
sport
is
growing
leaps
and
bonds
and
and
I
teach
little
children.
How
to
play
the
game
now
that
I
heard
a
gentleman
complain
about
noise.
There
is
noise,
everybody's
had
so
much
fun,
I
can't
you
can't
believe
it
they're
just
screaming
in
heaven.
It's
a
ball.
You
go
to
a
tennis
court.
L
You
don't
hear
that
everybody's
and
I'll
tell
you
and
I'll.
Tell
you
why
the
sport
of
pickleball
has
grown
more
than
tennis
way
more
than
any
other
sport
in
pickleball,
you
can
be
a
brand
new
player
which
I'll
teach
I
just
came
from
teaching
about
20-some
people
in
Palm
Desert.
Today
brand
new
people
within
within
40
minutes
I've
got
a
mountain,
a
court
plan.
L
Now
you
can
go
to
any
place
and
play
and
the
good
players
will
play
with
you,
but
try
that
in
tennis
it
don't
work
that
way
if
you're,
not
real
good,
and
it
takes
five
years
to
be
a
good
tennis
player
pick
a
ball.
I
can
teach
in
one
hour
and
it's
good
for
your
health.
It's
I
lost
30
pounds,
I
didn't
start
playing.
L
Till
I
was
80
years
old,
I'm,
87
now
and
I'm
a
national
champion,
because
the
guys
I
well
thank
you,
but
the
guys
I
play
I
gotta
tell
you
they
don't
run
too
fast,
yeah,
but
anyway,
thank
you
for
hearing
me
and
I
just
got
to
say
one
thing
about
DeMuth
we
did
want
to
get
more
court
said
to
move
and
I
understand.
We
got
shot
down
on
that,
but
I'll
tell
you
what
it
stinks
over
there
in
a
way.
L
If
you've
ever
been
there,
it
stinks,
but
I'll
tell
you
what
stinks
more
going
over
there
and
playing
than
having
50
pickleball
players
waiting
to
get
on
a
court
and
see
two
empty
tennis
courts
right
next
to
us.
Nobody
planned!
Thank
you
very
much
so
anyway.
Thank
you,
guys
appreciate
being
here
next.
M
Tom
Izzo
and
I
recently
became
a
part
of
the
James
Oh
Jesse
desert
highland
unity
centered
community
six
months
ago,
and
in
the
two
weeks
that
I've
started
playing
pickleball,
which
I
first
put
in
a
racket
in
my
hand
two
weeks
ago,
and
today
was
the
fourth
time.
I
had
a
racket
in
my
hand,
and
it
is
amazing,
fun
sport
I
mean
believe
it
or
not.
M
We
really
do
have
the
next
Serena
or
Venus
Williams
of
pickleball
here
in
our
community,
and
our
community
has
the
resources
to
train
them
to
train
our
kids
that
are
here
in
our
community
to
train
them
to
become
better
athletes.
Please
help
our
children
grow
and
learn
a
fun
sport
and
give
them
the
tools
to
be
able
to
better
serve
our
gorgeous
community.
Please
help
us
provide
more
education
and
resources,
so
we
can
all
grow
to
our
full
potential.
Help
us
put
our
talented
Palm,
Springs
neighborhood
first
on
the
pickleball
courts.
Thank
you.
G
I
think
we
all
want
to
be
healthy.
We
wanna
have
fun.
We
all
want
to
enjoy
our
sport.
It
is
quite
loud
on
the
tennis
courts
to
correct
this
gentleman.
This
national
title
gentleman
professional
whatever,
but
all
these
arguments
seem
to
me
to
be
off
what
I
see
is
the
problem
when
I
go
to
the
beautiful
courts
and
they
are
scarred
by
tape
that
could
have
been
avoided
and
also
this
idea
of
sharing
the
courts.
G
I
do
feel
that
it
is
misleading
to
say
that
the
tennis
courts
are
sitting
empty
with
no
tennis
players
they're
always
full.
There
are
not
enough
tennis
courts.
We
have
eight
tennis
courts.
Granted
two
tennis
courts
make
a
triple
pickleball
courts.
I
think
both
sports
are
great.
I
have
friends
who
play
pickleball,
who
used
to
play
tennis,
that's
great!
You
can
learn
pick
a
ball,
so
fast
tennis
isn't
like
that.
G
But
I
really
do
feel
that's
irrelevant
for
me,
what
what
happens
is
when
I
go
to
the
court
and
I
see
the
tape
there
that
can't
be
removed.
It
shows
the
kind
of
disrespect
to
the
venue
where
traditionally
it
has
been
tennis
players
we're
at
the
last
council
meeting
I
thought
it
had
been
decided.
Well,
you
have
a
pickleball
court
system.
G
Is
we
have
a
tennis
courts
at
Ruth,
Hardy,
I'm,
sorry
about
the
water
treatment
plant
I
play
tennis
I
used
to
play
tennis
at
DeMuth
as
well,
and
the
other
point
I
want
to
bring
up
and
I
hope.
This
is
relevant.
It's
about
integrity
and
good
sportsmanship
and
having
been
a
tennis
player
through
juniors
college,
helped
teaching
children
with
Kay
Butler,
who
teaches
small
children
out
there
having
Vickie
graciously.
Allow
me
to
captain
a
team
out
of
Bruce
Hardy
Park,
which
hasn't
happened
in
a
long
time
a
public
place.
G
You
know
this
idea
of
sportsmanship
where
pickleball
players
are
coming
and
asking
requesting
tennis
players
to.
Please
leave
the
courts,
and
that
has
happened
with
at
least
to
my
knowledge,
a
couple
of
Canadian
players.
Now
you
have
these
people
coming
from
Canada.
We
have
a
guy
coming
from
England
every
year
with
his
wife,
renting
an
apartment
spending
money
going
out
to
dinner.
You
know
both
sports
are
gonna
bring
money
to
the
city.
Both
sports
are
gonna,
keep
people
healthy.
My
question
is:
why
are
we
having
this
meeting
again
I
kind
of
thought?
G
It
was
already
agreed.
Okay,
it
does.
It
is
not
pleasant,
there's
not
enough
shade
or
it's
the
water
treatment
smells
at
moose,
but
after
five
minutes
you
get
used
to
that
smell.
You
know
you
there.
There
are
other
solutions,
there
are
other,
it
seems
to
me
venues
to
maybe
investigate
or
solutions
where.
N
Good
afternoon
my
name
is
David
Cohan
I'm,
a
resident
of
Palm,
Springs
and
I,
just
like
to
speak
about
pickleball
as
well,
but
I'd
like
to
just
mention
two
points.
One
is
about
coexistence
with
tennis
and
everybody
else,
and
the
other
is
just
use
of
resources
which
I
know
is
really
what
we're
grappling
with
the
first
and
dean
Mangione
passed
this
piece
of
paper
out.
N
This
came
to
Dean
through
me,
and
this
was
because
of
fortuitous
meeting
of
my
family
with
the
gentleman
who
is
the
CFO
of
the
US
Tennis
Association,
the
atenas
Association
in
the
entire
United
States,
and
he
wanted
to.
Let
me
know,
because
he
knows
that
this
is
an
issue
for
the
city
of
Palm,
Springs,
that
the
US
Tennis
Association
is
advocating
for
coexistence
between
pickleball
and
tennis,
let
that
sink
in
for
a
second.
N
N
So
they'd
like
to
try
to
see
if
venues
like
Palm
Springs,
this
could
work.
The
second
is
about
resources:
I've
owned
a
home
in
Palm
Springs
for
better
part
of
a
decade
on
the
north
side
of
Palm
Springs
having
pickleball
courts
that
are
closer
to
the
north
side
of
Palm
Springs,
and
not
all
the
way
into
muth.
N
We
had
over
60
people
show
up
on
a
Saturday
morning,
offseason
to
play
pickleball
I
know
some
of
the
commissioners
saw
what
was
going
on
and
can
vouch
for
that,
and
in
addition
to
that,
as
you
probably
also
know,
for
use
of
resources,
two
tennis
courts
can
become
eight
pickleball
courts
in
terms
of
people.
That
means
60.
People
are
more,
can
play
pickleball
over
the
course
of
two
hours
or
even,
if
you're,
playing
on
all
the
tennis
courts
with
doubles.
N
G
I'm
Shelly
Saunders
and
Thank
You
commissioners
I,
was
on
the
Park
and
Rec
Commission
for
I.
Don't
know
a
long
time
so
I
appreciate
all
your
hard
work.
It's
good,
seeing
you
Christy
and
how
you
doing
okay,
I'm
here
free
I,
really
came
for
pickleball,
because
I'm,
an
avid
pickleball
player,
and
it
has
such
a
quality
of
life
changer
for
me
and
I,
am
really
enjoying
it
I'm
going
to
the
park
by
myself
and
can
pick
up
games.
G
They're,
making
new
friends
and
all
of
a
sudden
have
a
exciting
thing
and
healthy
thing
to
go
to
I
can
go
on
and
on
about
pickleball
but
I
know
all
you
guys
are
working
really
hard
to
co-exist
and
that's
what
I
enjoyed
about
the
gentleman
who
just
spoke
before
me,
because
I
do
believe:
there's
alternatives
of
finding
finance
and
money
to
build
some
more
courts.
You
know
the
locations
of
it.
We'd
all
have
to
look
at,
but
but
I
know
you
guys
will
all
do
the
best
in
the
interest
of
everybody.
G
I
played
I
was
born
and
raised
in
Palm
Springs
I
played
I
was
an
avid
tennis
player
at
Ruth.
Hardy
Park
I
understand
the
importance
of
the
tennis
courts
at
ruth
hardy
and
playing
there,
but
I
think
you
guys
are
going
to
come
up
with
a
really
good
solution
for
the
coexistence.
Now,
on
a
sadder
note,
I
got
to
tell
you
I'm
so
upset
with
the
school
district
for
the
idea
of
even
taking
over
tiny
tots
at
the
city
being
a
mom
myself.
G
Don't
know
any
I,
don't
know
if
any
of
you
are
parents
but
to
find
a
safe,
secure
environment
that
your
kids
like
to
go
to
that
want
to
go
to
it
that
you
know
that
your
kids
are
safe,
there's
no
money
in
the
world
for
it,
and
unless
the
school
district
can
tell
you
that
every
one
of
those
children
and
their
families
have
a
secure
position
in
their
program
for
the
same
amount
of
money
that
they're
paying
now
I.
Think
it's
a
no-brainer
that
you
can't
do
it.
G
You
just
can't
put
that
stress
and
strain
on
these
families
that
are
already
most
of
them,
paycheck
to
paycheck
to
paycheck
and
the
stress
of
putting
their
children
trying
to
find
some
other
facility
for
their
children
that
works
for
them.
I
see
that
I
see
it
every
time.
I'm
there,
these
these
hard-working
parents
who
are
in
their
work,
clothes
and
they're,
picking
up
their
kids
and
I've,
never
seen
a
child,
leaving
they're,
sadder
or
complaining
or
anything
and
and
to
be
honest,
I've
taken
a
lot
of
time
looking
because
I
was
interested
in
this.
O
My
name
is
David
Hamlin
I,
live
work
and
play
tennis
in
Palm.
Springs
I
want
to
make
several
points
and
one
that
I
think
has
not
been
made.
First,
when
you
hear
someone
say
that
they've
been
playing
tennis
at
Ruth
Hardy
for
forty
years,
you
can
assume
that
there
is
a
strong
community
bond
around
that
facility.
I
think
it
would
be
a
shame
to
do
anything
which
would
damage
that
bond.
O
O
Arti
Park
I
want
to
suggest
to
you
that
if
the
the
decision
you
make
here
enforces
that
behavior
you're
setting
a
precedent
which
I
think
is
quite
damaging
and
potentially
dangerous,
that
is,
if
the
way
to
deal
with
rules
one
doesn't
like
is
to
break
them
and
then
hope
they,
the
breakage,
gets
ratified
later
you're
opening
the
doors
to
chaos.
I'm
not
sure
that's
a
path
you
want
to
take.
O
D
Good
afternoon
my
name
is
Maxine
horks
and
I
am
a
resident
of
Palm
Springs
and
a
tennis
player
I.
Don't
have
notes
I'm,
not
as
well
spoken
as
a
lot
of
these
speakers,
but
I
just
wanted
to
put
over
the
point
that
there
are
other
issues
at
play.
The
two
courts
which
the
pickle
ballers
have
been
taking
over
the
last
couple
of
weekends,
making
it
making
tennis
players
have
to
wait
for
a
court
because
we
don't
have
enough.
D
One
of
the
courts
is
known
as
the
Children's
Court
and
in
season
when
families
come
with
children,
they're
directed
to
that
court
because
the
children
take
precedence.
The
rule
is
on
the
gate
of
that
court.
The
second
court
the
pickle
balls
have
taken
over
is
the
one
with
the
backboard,
which
is
great
practice
for
the
tennis
players.
Now
we
don't
have
a
backboard
I.
Think
pickleball
is
possibly
a
very
good
sport
I
have
nothing
against
it
or
against
the
people
that
play
as
have
everybody.
I've
spoken
to
it.
D
Ruth,
Hardy,
they're,
all
said
yeah,
it's
a
great
game.
Not
here,
that's
the
only
issue.
We
have
eight
courts,
we
lost
the
plaza.
So
we
gained
more
people
in
the
winter.
There
are
so
many
people.
We
have
people
waiting
on
every
court.
We
play
one
set
and
then
more
take
over
and
you
have
to
wait
again.
That's
how
it
works.
It
works
very
well
since
I
moved
here
when
I
moved
to
Palm
Springs
I
knew
no
one.
D
I
have
met
so
many
people
from
England
Canada
all
over
the
state
who
come
to
Palm
Springs
as
a
golf
and
tennis
destination.
Okay
in
the
future,
it
may
be
golf
tennis
and
pickable-
that's
cool,
but
do
we
really
they're
not
compatible
and
I?
Think
that
I
ask
you,
as
the
council
to
keep
the
Ruth
Hardy
tennis
park
as
it
was
intended
by
Ruth
Hardy
for
tennis
and
one
other
issue?
D
Do
we
have
enough
bathrooms
to
keep
with
all
these
pickleball
players
they're
pretty
grim
as
it
is,
and
if
we
have
a
lot
more
people
there
that's
going
to
be
another
issue,
so
I
ask
your
consideration,
feel
free
bill
quartz,
whatever
eliminate
the
tennis
courts
at
DeMuth,
because,
generally
to
my
knowledge,
people
choose
not
to
play
tennis
at
DeMuth
because
of
pickleball.
So
let's
have
two
separate
entities:
perfect.
Thank
you
for
listening.
Thank.
P
My
name
is
Philip
Gittleman
I
live
in
Desert,
Hot,
Springs
and
I
had
been
introduced
to
Ruth
Hardy
eighteen
years
ago.
As
a
tennis
player,
I
should
also
add
that
I
have
played
pickleball
and
I've
enjoyed
it
and
I
think
it
would
be
a
mistake
to
think
that
somehow
there
has
to
be
like
Game
of
Thrones
a
combat
between
pickleball
players
and
tennis
players.
It
really
isn't
necessary.
I
mean
to
see
an
army
of
people
with
paddles
on
either
side
and,
of
course,
we
in
tennis
have
the
extra-large
racquets
as
well.
P
I
think
what
in
in
the
job
that
you
have
is
good
Shepherds
of
this
community
and
trying
to
figure
out
how
it
can
be
served
best
if
you
think
of
yourself
in
much
the
same
fashion
as
there
are
organizations
dedicated
exclusively
for
the
preservation
of
ports
of
this
city,
so
that
it
doesn't
change
because
there's
something
richly
in
its
background
in
its
quality
or
whatever
it
is,
but
nonetheless
just
the
same
way.
There
are
buildings
and
areas
within
the
city
that
had
been
preserved
and
there
will
be
no
change.
P
I
think
you
really
should
be
thinking
of
Ruth
Hardy
Park
in
much
the
same
fashion.
We
have
family
and
friends
coming
from
Serbia
Germany
New
Zealand
all
around
the
world,
Ruth
Hardy
Park
is
one
of
those
incredible
places
where
there
is
an
egalitarian
spirit
in
the
fullest
sense
of
the
word
strangers
can
come
and
feel
a
sense
of
belonging.
P
It's
a
very
unique
situation,
and
so
I
would
simply
counsel
you
in
your
consideration
about
what
to
do
is
to
really
think
about
what
other
resources
are
there
in
this
city
that
could
be
utilized
and
transformed
into
pickleball,
because
it
is
a
growing
sport
and
and
the
fun
sport
as
I've
enjoyed
it
as
well
and
recognized
at
the
same
time
that
Ruth
Hardy
is
again
one
of
those
jewels.
It's
a
jewel
here
in
the
city
and
it
shouldn't
be
tampered
with.
It
should
be
preserved.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very.
O
Good
afternoon
good
afternoon,
my
name
is
david
paquette
I'm
living
Cathedral
City,
but
spend
most
of
my
time
in
Palm
Springs
I
am
the
president
of
the
Palm
Springs
pickleball
Club.
We
rent
the
facilities
regularly
in
the
season
at
DeMuth
Park
to
host
tournaments.
So
there
is
an
income
producing
ability
for
the
city
also
by
renting
out
courts.
We
just
need
more
courts.
We
just
don't
have
enough
courts
to
the
amount
of
people
that
would
like
to
play.
We
have
to
limit
our
tournaments
to
so
many
because
we
don't
have
enough
courts.
O
We
could
draw
a
lot
more
people
if
we
had
more
courts.
So
it
is
kind
of
a
dilemma.
You
guys
have
done
a
terrific
job.
Within
the
last
three
years
we
went
from
zero
courts
three
years
ago
to
eight
at
DeMuth
Park,
with
some
lines
temporary
lines,
so
we
actually
have
nine
technically
at
DeMuth
Park,
but
that's
just
not
enough
for
as
much
growth
as
we
are
seeing
in
the
sport
of
pickleball.
So
whatever
we
can
do
as
a
group
to
get
more
courts
would
be
greatly
appreciated.
We
don't
want
to
infringe
on
anybody.
O
A
Any
other
speakers
well.
Thank
you
all
very
much
for
the
passion
that
you
shared
today.
We
do
have
someone.
Ok,
if
I
can
ask
if
you're
going
to
be
another
speaker
if
you'd
move
up
to
the
corner
chair,
so
that
we
can
get
this
moving
because
we've
got
a
pretty
long
meeting
and
we've
got
some
really
big
agenda
items
and
I
just
don't
want
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
in
between.
So
thank
you
very
much.
Please.
K
My
name
is
Linda
Burt
I
live
in
Cathedral
City,
but
spend
most
of
my
life
at
Ruth.
Hardy
have
for
48
years
been.
There
met
some
of
the
most
beautiful
people
you
could
ever
want
to
meet
and
from
what
I
hear
everybody's
saying
getting
emotional
it,
it
would
be
nice
to
work
toward
make
everybody
happy.
The
city
is
prosperous,
like
somebody
said
you're
having
an
influx.
K
Let's
take
some
of
that
revenue
and
give
more
rather
than
water,
down
the
situation
and
take
away
from
one
entity
that,
like
Phil
said,
is
beautiful
a
jewel
to
give
something
that
is
popular.
Let's,
let's
find
those
resources,
and
let's
do
it
that
way,
rather
than
take
from
what
is
already
working
beautifully,
convert
all
of
DeMuth
to
all
pickleball
I
passed
there
four
days
a
week
and
there
were
no
tennis
players.
I
have
never
seen
at
7:30
to
8:00
in
the
morning.
K
I
have
never
seen
anybody
playing
tennis
on
those
two
courts
that
aren't
pickleball
there
they're
nothing.
So
if
that's
the
case,
I
don't
think
you'd
have
too
many
complaints.
If
that
were
converted
and
you'd
make
the
pickle
ballers
happy
and
then
find
those
resources
and
keep
what
is
is-
and
you
know,
help
everybody.
Thank
you
all.
Thank.
A
A
Q
Afternoon-
everyone,
yes
just
three
things
I
wanted
to
note.
There
might
be
helpful
one
is,
you
may
be
aware
of
there's
a
portion
behind
in
with
Park
up
to
the
wastewater
treatment
plant,
that's
going
to
be
portion
of
the
CV
link,
and
that
is
about
ready
to
get
going
with
construction
that
portion
of
it.
It's
is
very
exciting
for
the
city
and
wanted
to
we're
going
to
try
an
get
that
scheduled
for
a
groundbreaking
with
the
City
Council
and
as
soon
as
that
is
within
the
next
couple
weeks.
Q
We're
hoping
I
will
make
sure
you're
aware
of
it,
love
to
invite
you
to
join
us
as
well.
That's
number
one
I
want
to
offer
a
challenge
to
you
of
something.
I
think
is
important.
It's
been
on
your
policy
radar,
and
that
is,
as
you
know,
we
seem
to
get
a
lot
of
complaints
on
the
bathrooms
in
the
park
and
it
has
occurred
to
me
that
it's
going
to
take
a
little
extraordinary
effort
on
our
behalf.
Q
And
so
what
I
would
like
to
suggest
is
if
I
could
ask,
maybe
a
subcommittee
of
this
group
to
work
with
me
and
and
staff
to
really
focus
on
what
we
can
do
a
to
improve
them
immediately.
Deep
cleaning,
special,
whatever
we're
going
to
decide
we're
gonna,
do
as
a
back
to
the
practice
and
then
there's
a
question
of
numbers
and
do
we
need
more
and
what
kind
should
they
be
and,
of
course,
and
security
so
to
come
forward
with
a
set
of
recommendations
to
take
the
council
to
get
the
resources
that
we
need.
Q
Q
A
You
very
much
so
the
first
item
on
the
agenda
is
discussion
of
Palm
Springs,
Unified,
School,
District's,
childhood
education.
Expansion.
I
would
like
to
offer
this
time
for
people
who
need
to
recuse
themselves
to
do
so
as
school
district
employees
and
I
believe
we'll
have
guests
come
forward
to
talk
to
us
so.
B
If
you
were
called
back
in
March,
we
started
this
conversation
of
Thompson's
Unified,
School
District,
looking
for
space
for
the
expansion
of
their
early
childhood
education
programs,
and
at
that
time
it
was
headstart
and
the
meeting,
because
the
Commission
had
a
lot
of
questions.
We
kind
of
tabled
this
topic
until
we
could
have
representers
at
the
table
to
ask
questions
so
that
occurred
at
our
April
meeting.
B
B
The
scooters,
as
stated
that
during
the
councilmen
on
May,
2nd
that
they
were
going
to
allow
our
returning
children,
who
are
currently
in
tiny
tots
to
have
priority
and
Romansh
the
program,
and
they
would
only
be
paying
$150
a
month
for
the
first
year
coming
in
the
second
year,
they'd
be
looking
at
it
coming
based
on
the
sliding
scale
that
was
in
this
type
of
put
that
we
were
given
and
based
on
income
and
family
size.
The
fee
would
be
determined
from
the
sliding
scale
and.
R
S
Okay,
well,
we
revised
this
a
little
bit
last
minute,
even
though
today
so
I
want
to
share
that
with
you
guys
today
and
I
am
so
glad.
We've
had
an
opportunity
to
hear
everybody's
voice
in
the
communities
to
make
sure
that
we've
fitted
all
of
them.
He
needs
that
we
have
within
our
families.
So
that's
one
of
the
reasons
that
we
changed
our
proposal
to
our
state
preschool
children.
S
So
if
we
look
at
just
the
income
bracket
itself,
page
number
four,
so
it
does
do
a
comparison
where
you
can
see
first,
where
the
headstart
income
bracket
would
look
like
which
we
are
not
using
at
all.
The
proposal
is
a
state
preschool
program,
and
if
the
families
qualifies
as
you
can
see,
family
sizes
income
brackets
and
if
the
family
qualifies,
then
they
qualify.
It's
free
services
in
case
the
family
does
not
meet
the
income
guidelines.
S
R
S
My
idea
is,
and
is
for
us
to
work
together
in
collaboration.
What
we
can
provide
is
this,
for
example,
education
from
this
to
this
during
these
work
hours.
But
what
other
things
that
we
can
work
together
in
collaboration?
Can
we
continue
to
enhance
it,
for
these
families
is
continue?
The
summer
program
we
don't
operate
during
the
summer
extension,
so
it's
extending
that
and
what
others
type
of
services
that
were
working
together
and
there's
just
like
a
small
piece,
but
it's
maybe
Vicki
and
I
work
in
all
the
detail
said.
S
T
S
T
S
B
He
depends
on
which,
day
of
the
week
and
what
time
they
get
out
of
school,
but
most
I
majority
kids
at
our
facility
by
3:30
3:45.
They
have
a
small
snack
and
then
about
4
plus
when
we
break
off
we
nor
we
try
to
take
the
kidney
Garner's
to
fourth
graders
in
one
group.
We
take
them
into
the
youth
room
to
do
the
homework
and
then
the
older
kids
are
in
left
in
the
pavilion.
B
T
B
B
What's
good
is
this
coming
year,
but
when
sees
their
their
flex
day,
so
there
are
the
elementary
kids
or,
and
middle
schools
are
out
of
school
earlier
that
day.
So
they
come
to
us
earlier.
But
on
that
day
we
try
to
pray
on
extra
things
like
they
may
do
a
field
trip
and
go
to
Duluth
and
visit
the
community
garden.
So
they
may
have
a
thing
set
up
where
they're
doing
pickleball
with
the
pickleball
people
or
they
might
be
taking
a
field
trip
to
go
to
the
movies
or
something
of
that
nature
and
do.
B
A
B
M
S
B
Potentially,
it
could
be
a
wonderful
time
position
right
now.
I've
got
four
people
that
have
been
working
that
program
this
past
year
and
we
had
30
up
to
33
kids
at
one
time
in
that
room
and
they
basically
spend
about
a
quarter
of
their
time
four
days
a
week
operating
that
program,
so
programs
from
3:00
from
9:00
to
3:00
and
it's
Monday
through
Thursday,
and
so
we
had
40
pop
right
now
so
about
a
quarter
of
their
time.
None
of
those
four
people,
three
were
full-time
and
we
have
one:
that's
a
3/4
employee.
Q
A
B
A
So
so
one
of
the
issues
I
have
is
it
sounds
to
me
like
for
the
first
year
that
a
parent
who
falls
into
the
category-
probably
one
of
the
seven
parents,
children
and
into
the
income
level
that
requires
a
$150
payment,
that
that
would
satisfy
an
issue
that
we
had.
Subsequent
to
that,
though,
we're
tossing
I
mean
we
don't
know
with
those
children
are
the
three
the
two
and
the
three
year
olds
that
are
out
there,
but
we're
basically
saying
if
you
make
a
certain
amount
of
money.
S
No
not
at
all
so
then
that's
where
we
develop,
because
we
do
not
want
to
exclude
any
child
I
think
that's
our
main
goal,
regardless
of
income.
It's
creating
in
my
job
would
be
when
I
proposed
this
to
the
state
as
what
we're
creating
at
sunrise
is
creating
private
slots
to
ensure
that
every
child,
regardless
of
income.
So
our
superintendent
has
agreed
that
the
our
cap
would
be
that
family
would
pay
250
a
month,
so
that.
M
R
T
R
M
M
M
M
A
R
Are
expanding
at
our
own
facility?
We're
gonna
start
a
program
at
at
it.
Edwin
Slav
we're
looking
we've
expanded
other
facilities
to
really
changed
our
spaces
at
all
of
our
elementary.
So
when
the
legislature
had
wanted
to
get
a
four
year
old
program
in
we
backed
up
if
kindergarten
you
haven't
used
to
have
to
be
five
by
December,
we
back
that
up
to
September.
So
it's
those
three
months
in
that
year
that
now
have
TK,
so
rooms
that
would
have
been
available
could
have
been
available
for
early
childhood.
R
R
We
could
expand
that
over
time
and
I
think
that's
a
big
part
of
it
is
constantly
revisiting
that
relationship
and
seeing
if
it's
working-
and
if
this
is
this,
isn't
something
that
once
we
do,
it
has
to
live
on
in
perpetuity.
If
it's
not
meaning
the
city
needs,
if
we're
expanding
well
I
mean
so
there
are
lots
of
ways
that
we
could
really
go
forward.
R
But
right
now
our
board
has
asked
us
to
figure
out
ways
to
expand
our
early
childhood
program,
because
the
research
is
really
clear
that
when
students
have
that
experience
four
solid
two
years
before
they
come
to
us
in
kindergarten,
our
standards
are
getting
ripped
more
rigorous,
not
less
rigorous,
that
they
do
better
in
school
and
so
we're
trying
to
provide
as
many
opportunities
and
access
points
as
possible.
So.
R
We'd
love
to
be
there,
but
I
just
want
to
say
that
if
and
I
do
we
believe
we'll
have
kids
for
that
absolutely.
But
we
also
know
that
this
is
your
facility
and
that
you
know,
depending
on
the
arrangements
and
what
your
needs
are
would
be
open.
I
do
think
we'll
have
increasing
need
the
more
opportunities
that
we
seem
to
open
up
and
provide
the
longer
the
way.
Let's
get,
which.
M
I
M
R
I
A
B
R
C
C
You
know,
I,
you
know
I
think
most
people
that
this
board
know
that
I
was
very
disappointed
in
the
Commission
vote.
I
didn't
think
it
was
a
compassionate
action
for
the
most
needy
amongst
us
in
our
community
working
in
low
wage
jobs
that
we
all
benefit
from
what
they
do
for
our
community.
So
we
do
have
an
obligation
and
I
need
to
say
on
the
record.
I've
been
very
disappointed.
The
discourse
I've
urged
both
at
the
council
meetings
and
that
this
Commission
meetings
people
talking
about
how
many
children
people
are
having.
C
T
T
R
T
R
R
So
we
know
that
the
preponderance
of
our
families
are
low-income,
that
we
serve
across
the
district
in
every
community,
and
so
yes,
we
do
feed
them
if
we
feel
we
feed
about
four
million
meals
a
year.
So
it's
pretty
amazing-
and
we
continue
in
this
summer,
provide
meals
in
the
park
and
have
a
surface
here
in
Palm
Springs,
where
people
come
to
get
their
meals,
but.
R
A
S
A
My
only
thought
was
that
we
are
looking
at
a
different
fee
schedule
for
people
who
are
outside
of
Palm
Springs
in
response
to
our
council,
so
that
piece
does
come
into
play,
making
sure
that
the
residents
get
price
spot
first
and
at
a
more
reasonable
fee
than
others.
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
keeping
this
equitable.
If
we're
going
to
allow
others
to
step
in
so
go
ahead.
Commissioner
pace.
A
Other
questions
or
I
mean
we
have
the
experts
in
front
of
us
and
remembering
that
the
decision
that
we
make
today
and
the
recommendation
that
we
put
forward
we're
not
the
final
decision-makers.
We
are
making
a
recommendation
based
on
the
information.
That's
been
laid
in
front
of
us.
So
if
you
have
an
unanswered
question,
this
would
be
the
time
to
do
it.
Commissioner,
face
you
got
it
sorry
happens.
T
Occasionally,
one
of
the
things
that
you
mentioned
that
you're
trying
to
base
them
off
of
you
know
home
location,
the
school
I
guess
would
be
their
home
school
when
they
get
that
old.
The
I
able
to
enroll
is
there
any
consideration
whether
families
are
going
to
be
attending
other
programs
that
are
like
in
that
location
as
well,
because
we
do
have
the
after-school
program,
we
do
have
the
summer
camps,
and
all
of
that
would
that
be.
Could
that
be
part
of
the
formula
so
that
those
that
would
want
to
be?
M
T
S
Enrollment
process
is
pretty
intense;
it
really
is
sitting
with
the
family
and
getting
to
know
them
and
really
getting
to
know
their
needs.
So
as
as
soon
as
the
family
disclose
is
what
their
needs
are,
then
our
staff
is
trained
to
make
sure
okay,
okay,
this
is
what
we
have.
We
make
it
all
available,
and
then
we
tell
them
this.
This
is
what
we
have,
of
course,
so
that
makes
total
sense
that
we
would
try
to
do
that.
The.
Q
Would
just
note
just
please,
before
you
vote
they're,
just
a
couple
of
things
that
I
just
wanted
to
convey,
though
I
think
the
two
benefits
to
the
city
or
one
you
know.
Clearly,
this
is
going
to
be
different
in
terms
of
licensed
instructors,
so
that's
certainly
a
much
higher
level
than
what
we
are
able
to
provide,
but
but
also
the
other
thing
that
that
keeps
city
managers
up
at
night,
the
huge
amount
of
liability
we
have
just
the
function
of
tiny,
small
children,
tiny
tots.
Q
F
Any
questions
just
I'm
a
and
I'm
trying
to
I
get
to
decide
this
tomorrow
and
so
I
I
really
want
your
objective
recommendation
to
Council.
So
I
don't
want
to
influence
that
in
any
way.
But
a
few
points
because,
as
the
liaison
I
volunteered
to
meet
with
the
school
district
and
I
did
meet
with
superintendent
Lyons
about
this
in
this
proposal,
and
so
it's
changed.
But
you
had
said
to
me
that
you
were
applying
for
L
cap
funding
or
you
would
use
L
cap
funding
to
pay
the
additional
cost
of
services
for
that
first
year.
F
S
That
is
something
that
we're
initially
already
calculating
with
more
staffing,
salaries
or
meals.
How
that
would
work
is
our
central
kitchen
will
be
delivering
the
children's
meals
to
the
classroom.
Warmers
would
be
kept
there.
So
that's
what
we're
working
in
process
about
how
much
that
would
be.
That
would
cost
them.
We
started
that
a
few
months
ago
already
embedding
that
into
our
L
cap,
so
I'm
not
too
sure
to
give
you
an
exact,
but.
R
For
that
is
that
we
would
be
serving
more
students
who
need
the
program
and
be
able
to
do
that.
So
that's
the
mission
of
the
L
cap
is:
are
you
serving
your
students
who
are
English
learners
who
are
foster
you
or
low-income,
and
so
it
all?
It
affords
us
the
opportunity
to
say
yes
we're
doing
that,
we're
using
those
funds
to
do
that
and.
Q
F
Q
M
F
S
At
this
time,
what
we
were
thinking
of
due
to
all
the
regulations
and
guidelines
following
by
the
state
and
the
program
that
there
are
several
program
options
that
will
be
I'll,
be
creating,
so
what
I
would
be
doing
in
order
to
give
that
opportunity
to
all
its
ten
private
slots
and
each
classroom
due
to
community
care
licensing.
We
will
be
able
to
light
license
due
to
the
square
footage.
The
restrooms
and
the
the
whole
facility
and
outside
space
is
about
15
to
16
for
AM
and
PM,
so
32
children.
F
B
Because,
right
now
we
have
about
this
week
with
their
summer
program.
We
have
about
twenty
in
the
summer
program.
Right
now
we
had
thirty
three
that
were
through
this
full
school
year
and
we
had
a
little
graduation
ceremony
in
May
and
so
in
those
twenty
I'm,
not
sure
how
many
would
just
be
they
made
theirs
to
be
different
summer.
B
O
F
B
Iii
would
say
with
the
ones
that
I
know
I
would
say:
none
would
fall
into
this
category
of
qualifications.
Do
they
make
too
much
money?
The.
F
G
A
A
C
Commissioner
I
thought
we
were
having
done
with
discussion,
but
I
do
need
to
respond
to
that
I
mean
with
all
due
respect
to
this
Commission
and
a
lot
of
feet
on
this
commission.
We
represent
a
certain
demographic
of
this
city,
as
does
our
City
Council
and
I
would
venture
to
say
that
if
we
had
a
more
diverse
body
up
here
that
the
Head
Start
program
would
have
received
a
positive
recommendation
from
this
body.
C
A
C
R
Want
to
say
thank
you
as
well,
and
that
going
forward
I
mean
all
we
really
envision
for
the
future
is
stronger
public
public
partnerships
and
we
always
want
to
be
responsive.
We're
not
looking
to
take
over
anything.
We
really
just
our
mission
is
to
provide
the
best
access
to
education
for
every
student
that
we
serve,
and
so
that
any
way
that
we
can
do
that
and
work
with
our
public
partners
and
our
private
partners
to
do
that.
We're
looking
to
it.
R
A
Q
Chairman
could
I
just
I
do
need
to
go,
but
if
I
could
just
make
a
comment
on
just
on
one
comment
on
your
item
number
five
on
business
cards.
I
just
want
to
tell
you
what
what
the
city's
policy
has
long
been,
and
that
is
council
has
not
wanted
councils
Commission
members
to
have
business
cards
just
because
years
ago
there
was
some
abuse
on
that.
There's
nothing
preventing
individual
members
from
having
cards
made
with
your
name
on
it
and
Commission,
but
just
the
council
didn't
want
from
the
city
and
city
seal
on
it.
Q
A
F
You
I
have
to
leave
I
apologize.
Thank
you
for
all
your
a
really
important
work,
really
value
the
time
that
you
spend
for
our
city
I'm
here,
for
you
I'm,
passing
up
my
business
card.
So
if
you
need
anything,
feel
free
to
reach
out
to
me
and
I'll
be
here
for
any
items
that
you
like,
if
there's
things
you'd
like
me
to
research
for
you
and
get
back
to
you,
okay,
thank
you.
Thank.
B
A
B
A
A
B
Of
put
this
on
here
because
of
the
multitude
of
emails
that
I
have
gotten,
since
probably
my
more
all
day
of
the
inundation
of
pickleball
players
at
the
booth,
Hardy
Park
I
know
there
had
been
some
issues
going
on.
Apparently
at
one
time
there
was
a
little
altercation
and
the
police
had
to
be
called
because
of
the
tennis
players
approaching
two
pickleball
players
about
striping
the
courts.
With
tape
I've
got
out
there
taking
pictures.
B
Stacy
has
been
trying
to
find
a
product
that
can
remove
the
residue
left
behind
from
the
tape
that
the
pickleball
player
has
been
putting
down
and
as
of
yet
I,
don't
think
she's
found
a
good
product
jet
and
when
I
went
out
there
I
had
tennis
players.
You
know
getting
stuck
to
the
taping
when
I
was
walking
around
trying
to
make
pictures.
I
was
getting
stuck
on
the
tape
residue
that
was
left
behind
even
one
of
the
courts.
B
So
as
a
body
I
just
wanted
to
bring
it
up,
I'm
not
sure
I
know
les
is
aware
of
it
because
he's
been
out
there,
but
whether
any
of
other,
the
commissioners
have
been
aware
of
the
kind
of
takeover
Ruth
Hardy
on
the
weekends
for
pickleball
and
the
fact
that
they're
going
in
there
without
anyone's
permission,
taping
courts,
bringing
in
their
own
nets
and
really
kind
of
taken
over
the
court.
So
I
know
at
this
time.
You
know:
there's
not
been
any
funding
set
aside
for
any
conversions.
B
Any
new
builds
for
courts,
so
I've
been
asked
for
you
know,
please
don't
overtake
our
courts,
because
if
you
remember
a
number
of
months
ago,
we
had
all
the
tennis
players
in
here
talking
about
don't
touch.
Our
cards
leave
our
courts
as
they
are,
and
I
know
that
even
the
pickleball
people
have
made
comments
that
you
know
the
sled
demuth
be
for
the
pickle
ballers
and
can
be
for
the
tennis
players.
And
now
it
seems
like
that's
not
kind
of
so.
A
B
A
A
Think
that
would
keep
us
in
shape
for
a
while.
It
is
apparent
bait
based
everybody's,
testifying
that
this
sport
is
not
going
away
and
we've
talked
about
it.
I've
been
on
this
commission
about
a
year
and
a
half
and
we've
been
talking
about
it.
This
entire
time
it's
getting
bigger
and
bigger.
Ellison
is
putting
things
into
into
Indian
Wells,
so
I
just
hope
that
we
can
think
about
how
we
can
positively
move
forward.
A
I
justified
one
thing
in
my
mind
because,
as
I
was
walking
my
dogs
and
approached
by
people
who
were
playing
pickleball,
there
were
a
lot
of
local
people
who
live
at
Ruth.
Hardy
Park,
who
said
I
live
close
by
and
I
should
be
able
to
play
here
and
I
thought.
Wow
I
understand
that,
because
I
don't
want
to
tell
people
from
two
mouths
that
they
have
to
drive
to
Ruth
Rd.
A
But
on
the
other
hand
we
don't
have
a
swimming
pool
in
every
park
that
we
have
so
I
got
myself
comfortable
with
the
fact
that
you
can
actually
have
an
environment,
and
many
people
from
pickleball
told
me.
The
social
aspect
of
it
means
that
you
need
to
be
in
a
group
and
when
you
start
to
break
it
up,
it
just
gets
diffused.
So
that's
kind
of
my
statement,
commissioner
Diaz
first.
K
Of
all
this
smell,
my
kids
are
now
17
and
15.
They
started
playing
soccer
over
there
when
they're.
Four,
it's
a
treatment
plant
you're,
not
gonna
die
like
that's
just.
That
is
what
it
is.
That
parks
been
there
for
a
long
time
anyway.
As
far
as
pickleball
and
Ruth
Hardy
and
tennis
go
I
agree
with
you.
This
keeps
coming
up,
I,
don't
know.
If
you
know
at
one
point,
we
were
under
the
impression
that
there
was
no
money.
The
city
did
not
have
any
money
or
revenue
coming
in.
K
Therefore,
we
weren't
gonna
be
able
to
do
anything.
I
remember
discussing
with
Dean
us
suggested
to
him
to
find
some
funding.
If
you
guys
can
find
funding,
we
can
see
what
we
can
do
about
putting
in
courts.
No
one
came
back
forth
with
hey.
We
found
some
money,
obviously
there's
a
lot
of
people
playing,
but
no
one's
stepping
forward
with
that.
Now
that
we're
finding
that
there
is,
we
do
have
some
money.
So
where
seems
to
be
I,
don't
know
if
that's
proven,
but
all
these
discussions
about
all
these
things
are
going
on.
K
K
Don't
see
why
we
couldn't
I
I
would
be
a
proponent
of
taking
those
extra
tennis
courts
at
DeMuth,
transforming
or
making
them
into
pickleball
courts
for
now
and
keeping
Ruth
Hardy,
but
pickleball
has
to
stay
out
or
Ruth
hearty
perk.
That's
not
fair
to
the
tennis
community.
I
don't
know.
Do
we
need
a
security
guard
to
stand
at
both
of
those
two
places
and
supervise,
and
the
other
thing
is
if
I
live
in
Palm
Springs,
obviously,
which
I
do
and
I
show
up
to
play.
K
Pickleball
or
I
show
up
to
play
tennis
in
one
of
those
public
perks
and
you're.
Coming
from
we
heard
Rancho
Mirage
we
heard
Desert
Hot
Springs
I
should
get
a
chance
to
play
before
you
all
do
on
the
courts
that
are
here
in
my
city,
I.
Don't
know
if
I'm
supposed
to
say
all
this
right
now:
okay,
you're.
T
Payson,
okay,
continuing
off
some
of
the
points
that
Jody
make
and
adding
one
in
we
do
need
kind
of
a
quick
stopgap
measure
and
the
thing
that
was
presented
by
mister
I'm.
Sorry,
if
I
say
Cohen
about
the
USTA
actually
being
able
to
stripe
these
they're
doing
it
for
free.
If
we
can
get
in
on
it,
it's
a
time
sensitive
manner,
we
do
have
two
tennis
courts
that
could
be
striped.
This
way
sitting
right
next
to
pickleball
courts
that
could
be
used
to
expand
it
quickly.
T
It
I
mean
the
dates
here,
it'll
be
done
by
August,
and
then
we
have
to
do
a
survey
to
say
how
is
this
actually
working?
We
have
those
two
courts.
They
would
still
be
available
for
tennis
if
pickleball
players
aren't
using
it,
but
this
is
something
that
could
move
forward
quickly.
That
is
no
cost
to
the
city.
That
would
actually
get
more
pickleball
courts
for
them
to
be
able
to
use.
T
A
In
horrible
place,
it's
it's
within
the
court
and
it's
a
wall
and
it
is
a
wooden
wall
and
people
actually
an
individual
can
play
tennis
by
themselves
off
the
wall.
But
that
means
they're
using
an
entire
court.
I
would
love
to
see
you
spend
money,
putting
a
cement
one
outside
the
court
and
in
a
small
Court,
but
spending.
T
One
thing,
but
now
we
have
something
that
we
could
get
a
couple
more
courts
at
least
to
a
stopgap
measure
while
we're
trying
to
get
the
council
to
approve
something
because
the
council
takes
for
a
while.
So
this
is
a
stopgap
measure
that
I
think
could
work
for
us
in
those
two
courts
and
we
wouldn't
eliminate
tennis
players,
but
we
would
add
pickleball
ability.
Let.
A
Me
offer
a
reason
why
it
could
be
a
challenge
we
do
have
competitions
I've
been
to
several
I'm,
not
a
player,
but
I
go
and
view
them
oftentimes
at
DeMuth,
Park
and
one
of
the
issues
with
with
tennis
lines
out
there.
You
can
relatively
easily
convert
those
two
courts
to
16
courts
so
that
eight
courts
so
that
they
actually
have
enough
space
to
do
sixteen
competing.
A
If
you
striped
those
with
this
solution,
you
would
now
take
a
tennis
court
that
you've
striped
for
one
court
to
replace
it,
and
the
difference
with
the
two
sports
I
am
learning
is
that
the
height
of
the
tennis
net
is
higher
than
it
is
for
the
pickleball
player,
and
that
would
probably
really
eliminate
the
opportunity
to
convert
those
two
to
eight
courts
for
a
competition.
For
you
know
two
days.
T
Right
but
that's
looking
at
a
competition
for
a
competition
that
has
to
meet
a
particular
match.
They're
gonna
use
the
eight
courts
that
they
have
those
other
two
are
four
people
want
to
do
a
pickup
game
when
it's
not
when
there's
not
tennis
players
there,
when
there's
just
a
backlog
of
things
and
I.
A
Understand
what
you're
saying,
but,
but
to
help
you
one
of
the
things
that
we're
finding
is,
we
have
competitions
there
and
they
literally
have
hosts
of
people
in
line
to
play
for
the
competitions
and
they've
always
said
you
know
eight
more
courts.
We
would
actually
be
able
to
bring
in
different
levels
of
competitions,
broader
competitions,
more
people
coming
in
more
revenue,
pay
you
more
money
to
do
it
and
I.
You
know
again,
I
realized.
A
T
And
I
understand
that
and
I've
competed
on
things
that
for
other
sports,
where
it's
you
know,
this
is
the
competition
level
one
and
then
this
is
kind
of
practice.
But
this
is
something
quick
that
doesn't
cost
us
anything
that
can
move
forward
for
now
until
we
can
get
the
money
to
suspend
that
DeMuth
and
build
them.
Eight
more
courts
which
competition
comes
up
a
lot
Vicki.
How
much
is
the
actual
revenue
from
these
competition
tournaments
very.
B
B
B
K
Just
gonna
ask
if
they're
playing
pickleball
this
doesn't
include
a
a
net
difference
anything
with
the
net,
so
they
would
have
to
suck
it
up
and
play
over
the
tennis
net.
Yeah.
Okay,
I,
don't
know
how
that
affects
you,
but
at
least
you'd
have
lines
with.
M
The
people
that
came
forward
today,
I
didn't
hear
anyone
say
please
keep
our
tennis
courts
at
DeMuth.
They
don't
want
to
play
around
it.
Why
don't
we
move
forward
and
make
the
moves
are
to
our
pickleball
court
all
the
way
across
and
Ruth
Rd,
our
tennis
courts
all
the
way
across
and
keep
the
keep
the
two
of
them
separate.
Mr.
C
First
of
all,
to
do
that
we
would
need
to
reach
out
to
the
tennis
community,
like
we
did
before
with
them
noticing
be
unconscionable
to
move
ahead
with
that
today,
I
mean
what's
happening.
Is
the
tennis
community
is
being
forced
to
say,
leave
ruth
hardy
alone.
Take
DeMuth,
and
I
do
want
to
remind
everyone
here
again
when
we
had
reached
out
to
the
tennis
community,
the
very
testament
we
have
about
the
importance
of
tennis
at
the
booth
we
had.
C
One
latino
man
grew
up
in
the
neighborhood
said
he
would
never
learn
the
sport
that
it
was
not
for
those
courts.
He's
now
teaching
other
people
in
his
community
to
play.
Tennis,
that's
really
important
to
remember,
but
you
know,
when
the
Commission
went
down
this
path
of
switching
courts,
you
could
predict
where
we're
going
to
happen,
we're
taking
one
resource
from
one
group
and
giving
it
to
another
I
mean
we
have
to
kind
of
step
back
and
see.
Do
we
want
to
keep
doing
this
because
look
at
the
animosity
that
we're
seeing
in
the
community?
C
You
know
we
have
to
come
up
with
some
other
kind
of
solution
and
to
say
we
should
eliminate
a
recreational
activity
at
DeMuth
for
that
community,
because
it
seems
simple.
Is
this
plain
wrong?
In
my
my
opinion,
you
know
we're
doing
this
a
lot
without
a
lot
of
objective
information
about
usage
in
our
parks.
You
know
there
was
comments
about.
If
you
go
to
these
courts
now
they're
empty.
Well,
you
go
right
now
to
the
dog
park
is
called
forty
people
there.
C
So
you
know,
John
just
suggests
that
our
mass
the
plan
is
hopelessly
out
of
date
or
kind
of
operating,
sometimes
in
a
vacuum
of
a
public
participation,
and
testimony
is
very
important,
but
there
are
certain
communities
in
Palm
Springs
that
are
organized
differently.
That
aren't
gonna
show
up
show
up
here,
so
I
would
be
posted.
This
idea
of
just
removing
a
recreation
and
opportunity
for
the
people
that
didn't
move
community
I
would.
N
A
Children
play
soccer
there.
Okay,
that's
are
you
closer
to
me.
I
I
agree,
though,
that
we
should
not
be
taking
local
capabilities
away,
but
I
did
I
know
that
we've
we've
looked
to
Vickie
to
try
to
give
us
a
cost
of
what
it
would
take
to
build
two
courts
with
lights
and
do
the
conversion
and
come
up
what's
that
dollar
amount
so
that
we
can
start
knocking
on
doors
and
asking
for
money.
There
is
money
in
this
valley.
Now
it's
not
like.
A
I
E
B
E
E
But
it
really
is
the
height
of
summer
season,
and
if
feedback
includes
any
kind
of
usage,
I
can
only
imagine,
since
their
pickleball
is
going
indoors
for
the
summer,
we
might
not
I
would
say
we
should
find
out
a
little
bit
more
about
what
the
standard
is
and
and
what
would
be
needed.
So
I'd
be
just
curious
about
that.
E
To
me,
this
is
not
a
solution,
it's
not
the
way,
I,
don't
think
any
of
us
came
to
Palm
Springs
to
be
able
to
live
a
better
life,
and
this
is
where
we're
ending
up
and
so
I
want
to
propose
that
we
look
at
a
pickleball
Center
that
we
look
at
something
that
is
modest.
That
fits
into
the
scale
of
what
our
other
centers
look
like.
E
A
B
As
a
result
of
the
budget
process,
councilmember,
Coors
and
I
believe
councilman
Middleton
who's.
The
budget
subcommittee
right
a
committee
in
several
means
I,
was
in
with
them
brought
up
the
idea
originally
I'm,
just
looking
at
funding
for
a
person
to
monitor
the
courts
that
Ruth
Hardy
and
they
felt
very
strongly
that
residents
should
have
priority
use
of
our
facilities
and
so
and
are
going
into
actually
the
last
council
meeting
when
they
were
doing
the
budgets.
B
So
I'll
be
working
over
probably
the
next
month
and
a
half
trying
to
put
together
scope
of
work
and
some
an
RFP
that
we
will
be
getting
down
the
street
to
look
at
bringing
in
one
possibly
two
vendors,
who
would
basically
monitor
the
people
that
use
our
courts
at
Ruth
Hardy,
who
uses
the
courts
at
DeMuth
Park,
making
sure
that
our
residents
have
priority
usage.
You
know,
since
the
plaza
record
clip
has
gone
away.
B
B
Yes,
we
have
a
lot
of
church
to
come
in
town
and
I
did
get
a
lot
of
emails
from
tennis
players
and
some
pickleball
players
and
there's
one
email
that
I
got
that
the
image
of
stated
they
come
here
every
year
for
the
BNP.
They
love
coming
to
Palm
Springs
and
they
make
kind
of
kind
of
their
place
to
go
play.
And
if
it's
going
to
continue
where
the
city
would
be
turning
that
over
to
pickleball,
then
they
will
look
for
another
city
to
stay
and
play
tennis
and
instead
of
coming
back
to
Palm
Springs.
T
B
The
main
concern
will
be
someone
controlling
who's
actually
using
the
courts.
Maybe
you
have
to
if
you're
a
resident,
you
can
call
48
hours
ahead
of
time
and
maybe
book
a
court.
So
you're
gonna
have
court
number
one
at
7
o'clock
in
the
morning
and
your
group
will
be
the
ones
on
that
group.
You
know
court
I
mean
I,
don't
know
it's
just
right
now,
just
starting
to
think
about
how
we're
going
to
do
that
right.
B
T
B
They
actually
did
they.
You
know
people
had
to
call
you
had
to
call
anyone
to
rent
a
quarter.
You
could
walk
in
and
read
in
court.
If
no
one
was
on
courts,
they
arranged
for
games
and
matches.
Obviously
they
had
a
little
pro
shop
there
where
they
could.
You
know
we
string
your
racket,
sell
your
racket
say
you
boss,
so
you
clothing
was.
B
Think
it
was,
there
was
no
talk
of
having
any
fees
but
that
they
would
be
petitioning,
maybe
we'd,
look
at
them
getting
in
a
resident.
They'd
have
to
have
a
ID
card
to
know
that
they're
a
resident
like
with
their
Angelman
membership.
So
you
know
that
details
haven't
been
all
worked
out,
but
I'm
Miami
focus
is
gonna,
be
what
would
the
scope
of
service?
Why
did
what's
the
expectation
wanting
want
that
person
to
be
able
to
do,
and
it
would
be
really
really
through
in
season?
M
Sure
Navarro,
a
couple
of
things,
I
also
keep
going
back
to
the
main
question
of
how
many
courts
is
it
gonna,
take
because
even
and
I'm,
not
in
favor
of
it.
If
we
were
to
consider
the
last
tennis
court
and
DeMuth,
are
we
gonna
see
them
again
six
months
from
now
saying
that
they're
out
there
in
its
full
out
of
capacity
and
they
want
another
one
so
going
back
to
the
master
plan?
Yes,
it's
so
outdated
and
I
brought
this
up.
M
Before
of
the
survey
of
being
able
to
survey
our
community
of
mm
to
see
who's
using
what
and
what
it's
being
used
for
I
just
want
to
throw
that
back
out
there
that
we
really
need
to
consider
that
going
forward,
because
we
all
get
more
of
a
voice
from
other
community
members
that
perhaps
can't
come
here
because
they're
working
or
they
have
other
things
that
they're
doing
and
then.
Lastly,
just
we
have
our
liaison
here,
councilmember
holstege.
A
A
K
K
G
A
An
easy
thing
to
think
through.
We
would
just
do
it
right
here
and
it
would
be
done.
I
know
it's
not
simple,
but
I
have
to
say
that
on
the
issue,
I
do
have
a
concern
about
saying
to
people
that
you've
got
to
move
from
where
you
are
to
go
someplace
else,
I'm,
not
crazy
about
telling
tennis
players.
You
can
come
back
here
two
years
from
now.
A
Those
people
that
play
tennis
at
that
Park
are
not
from
what
I
can
tell
the
professional
people
that
play
it
a
truth
Hardy
they
wouldn't
ever
be
accepted
to
roll
into
a
game
there,
because
they're
really
just
getting
started
so
I,
don't
want
to.
You
know,
try
to
introduce
that
I'm,
hoping
that
we
won't
cause
that
to
happen.
So,
commissioner,
pace.
T
Would
it
be
possible
to
kind
of
reach
an
agreement,
not
a
vote
of
anything,
but
for
their
goals
to
be
that
the
consensus
is
we
don't
want
to
eliminate
tennis
from
any
particular
part
where
it
already
exists,
where
we'd
like
to
add
pickleball
whether
a
pickleball
facility
is
added
to
what
we
already
have
is
the
eight
courts?
Can
we
agree
on
that
as
a
direction
for
the
subcommittee,
because
so
far
most
people
have
spoken
have
at
least
agreed
on
most
of
those
points.
E
T
We're
not
trying
to
eliminate
any
of
the
courts
that
currently
exist,
so
the
tennis
courts
in
DeMuth
protected
the
tennis
courts
in
Ruth
Hardy
protected
the
pickleball
courts
in
DeMuth
protected,
but
we're
exploring
options
of
where
to
add
pickleball
courts
and
from
what
I
understand
far
enough
away
from
tennis
people
that
there's
not
the
animosity.
That
goes
on,
whether
that's
one
side
or
the
other
there's
animosity.
We've
had
it
in
here
three
meetings:
we
go
with
them,
heckling,
each
other
back
and
forth.
A
Because
of
the
numbers
I
can't
sit
on
the
committee,
the
three
of
you
will
have
to,
but
I
will
tell
you.
I
will
work
to
knock
on
doors
looking
for
funds
once
we
know
what
it
would
cost.
If
you
can
come
up
with
the
cost,
you
know
grant
writing
whatever
we
need
to
do,
but
I'm
just
hoping
that
we
can
do
again.
We
could
do
the
Taj
Mahal,
but
let's
try
to
solve
short
and
fast
well,.
O
I'll
tell
you
what
the
the
pickleball
community
is
a
very
strong
community
and
by
you
know
that
the
times
that
I've
spent
with
them
they're
ready
to
go,
there's
money
out
there.
So
there's
something
we
need
to
do,
because
this
is
it's
ongoing.
So
we
need
I'm,
not
saying
build
a
Taj
Mahal,
but
we
need
to
do
something.
A
Only
be
careless,
I've
talked
to
cuckoo
ball
players
who
say
we're
all
for
coming
up
with
$10,000
to
convert
these
courts.
That's
not
what
needs
to
be
done.
We
need
to
build
two
courts
that
are
tennis
and
convert
so
that
call
it's
the
combination
of
the
two.
So
if
you've
got
people
ready
to
do
that
kind
of
fundraising
and
their
help.
O
Well,
we've
got
some
people
in
the
community
that
can
that
can
help
with
that.
I
do
know
that
the
other
thing
about
the
Ruth
Hardy
thing
I
was
there
the
day
that
there
was
a
scuffle
and
I'll.
Tell
you
what
the
tennis
players
don't
use
the
two
tennis
courts
that
the
pickleball
people
took
over.
So
you
know
I'm,
just
a
you
say
they
don't,
but.
A
I
walked
that
park
every
day
and
I
see
people
playing
there.
In
fact,
I
was
there
and
introduced
a
player
who
plays
alone
against
the
wall,
and
he
was
he
was.
He
was
fine,
but
he
said
yeah
I
do
play
against
the
wall
and
that
area
was
occupied.
There
is
no
other
wall
that
he
can
use
so
it
you
know
what
happened
there
eliminated
the
opportunity
for
people
and
and
that's
not
the
way
we
want
to
do.
We
really
do
need
to
solve
the
major
problems.
So,
yes,
I'm
sure
I.
E
B
Another
one's
been
given
any
permission
to
do:
pickleball
there
convert
tape,
the
courts
and
once
me
giving
any
permission,
no
one's
even
come
and
asked
got
it
other
than
when
they
had
the
first
event
there.
Someone
asked
OH
such
a
great
experience.
I
want
to
move
my
pickleball
tournaments
from
the
fall
Ruth
Hardy
Park
right
from
Duluth.
E
I
actually
was
told
I
take
tennis
lessons
actually
and
my
where
I
take
tennis
lessons
they
told
me
I
should
go
to
Ruth
Hardy
Park,
because
there's
a
wall,
and
so
people
are
actually
being
right
being
referred
to
go
to
that
court
with
a
wall
to
actually
practice
on
a
public
court
and
so
I
thought
that
was
really
quite
interesting.
I
didn't
even
know
the
wall
existed,
but
I
really
want
to
go
on
and
go
back
to
something.
Commissioner
pace
said
and
I
like
that,
and,
and
that
is
safeguarding
the
sport
areas
that
exist.
E
So
now
you
can
come
up
with
an
immediate
solution,
while
the
committee
in
I
don't
think
the
committee
would
ever
bring
a
Taj
Mahal,
then
we
might
bring
new
bathrooms,
but
I
do
think
there
is
land
out
there.
I
think
there
is
space
out
there
for
very
separate
experiences
for
pickleball,
whether
it's
building
two
new
tennis
courts
are
actually
just
building
brand
new
pickleball
courts
and
and
being
done
with
it.
