We need to do more research and don't believe we <br /> can get it done this year but ... it is a project we are considering. <br /> The committee wanted to go with new park benches first, because we think that we can accomplish that <br /> objective still this year. <br /> What we are considering is putting a basketball court on the hockey rink. The standard holding the basket <br /> maybe just outside the rink with the basket cantilevered over the rink. <br /> There are two basketball hoops now, one in McBride and one in Royal Meadows. The both need new baskets <br /> pat <br /> On Aug 21, 2013, at 9:59 AM, Jeff Paar wrote: <br /> Pat, <br /> I have had requests from several people in Centerville asking for some basketball hoops. Has park and rec <br /> considered outing some hoops at any of the parks? I know budgets are tight, and you are doing everything <br /> possible to make our parks /trails awesome. Even if we could just put a hoop up at a couple of parks, or even <br /> one of the parks. A couple of ideas I had, or were suggested to me are as follows; <br /> Northeast corner of Lamotte park parking lot. <br /> On the outside of the hockey rink boards. The people would use the rink as the shooting area. The hoop could <br /> be put on the north or south end, or even east or west side. <br /> Acorn park. That area would probably require a blacktop slab. <br /> Thanks for all you do. <br /> Jeff Paar <br /> Council Member <br /> City of Centerville <br /> Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE DROID <br /> i <br />
