Section 5: OPA Board Subject: Money is No Object Msg# 945719

My motion would dedicate 2 tennis courts to full time Pickle Ball courts which would have the pickle ball line markings only and also be fitted with permanent center nets. Currently there is a total of four (4) temporary pickle ball courts for use at the complex. Although four pickle ball courts can actually fit onto one tennis court, many of the conversions being made across the country are fitting them with three courts to provide additional room for the players. This configuration will provide the pickle ball membership with a total of nine courts for use when including the three currently available in the Community Center. (bold added by me) Thank you Tom Herrick for your thoughtful answer. So, the board voting to have the GM investigate the recommendation contained in your motion can lead to the creation of of six permanent, dedicated pickle ball courts that do not currently exist, and for a very minimal cost to the OPA members. For the record, I don't see your motion as a useless motion, as Joe Reynolds does, and thank you for making the motion and the suggestion. Also thanks to the board for recognizing and approving a recommendation that can lead to saving OPA members thousands of dollars. One other question regarding the courts that would be converted to pickle ball. Are those two tennis courts already lighted? |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Ms. Scott, "What does your motion change regarding the pickleball courts?" Pickle Ball is currently utilizing 2 tennis courts for outdoor play. These courts are setup with pickle ball line markings on top of tennis line markings and with portable center nets as a temporary solution. My motion would dedicate 2 tennis courts to full time Pickle Ball courts which would have the pickle ball line markings only and also to be fitted with permanent center nets. Currently there is a total of four (4) temporary pickle ball courts for use at the complex. Although four pickle ball courts can actually fit onto one tennis court, many of the conversions being made across the country are fitting them with three courts to provide additional room for the players. This configuration will provide the pickle ball membership with a total of nine courts for use when including the three currently available in the Community Center. Tom Herrick |
