Tom, Carol Scott is playing you politically in my view.
Your motion to have GM look into using existing facilities has NOTHING to do with Terry's passed motion to spend $150,000 on Phase One of the Manklin Creek master plan. Would you acknowledge, as Marty has, that the $150,000 is no more than Phase One of the master plan and included ALL work from Thompson's $207,000 recommendation except actual construction of four courts, but still provides the site work and storm water mitigation for an eventual eight pickleball courts. What Carol Scott seems totally unwilling to accept is that much of the $150,000 is for site work and storm water mitigation for Phase One of the master plan. If not for a master plan calling for 8 new pickleball courts, then all that needs to be done in that area is repair and maintain the playground for perhaps $10,000. |

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 |
