Staff has attempted to track the history of all of our park hard court play areas and <br />their maintenance history. This was a very difficult task. The reeords for these courts are very <br />incomplete. Staff did manage to find out the following: <br /> <br />Tennis and Basketball Court Combination Plav Areas <br /> <br />Park <br />Cummings Park <br />Floral Park <br />Royal Hills Park <br />Hazelnut Park <br /> <br />Year Built <br />Approx.1981 <br />Approx.

After extensive research, it does not look like <br />any of the basketball courts have been resurfaced since before 1999. Funding was allocated <br />every other year for trail and court resurfacing. Unfortunately, no funds since 2001 have been <br />used for this purpose. <br /> <br />It appears that up until 1999, the courts wcre on a flve ycar resurfacing schcdulc. Howcver, after <br />1999, that schedule does not appear to have been followed. It appears that the hard court play <br />arcas at Floral Park and Royal Hills Park were seheduled to be resurfaced between the years <br />2001-2003. However, for unknown reasons, it does not appear that they were ever done. These <br />two courts are in very poor shape. The largest issue with these two courts is the surfaee quality. <br />The surface is deteriorating, whieh causes the court to be slippery and dangerous. This creates a <br />
