Discussion: Cormnissioner Meadows inquired about the possibility of painting pickleball lines on at least two of the tennis courts during the reconstruction, as it seems to be a sport growing in popularity. Discussion ensued regarding the possibility, including: what the game of pickleball entailed; what would be involved in including pickleball lines on the tennis courts; whether those lines would result in a distraction to the tennis players; possibility of including addition of lines to the contractor's scope ofwork and resulting costs; whether the game was popular enough to warrant a change to the contract; whether courts at other parks would be more appropriate than those at Secret Lake Park; and whether the issue should be looked at by the contractor preparing the Parks Master Plan for possible inclusion in the plan, rather than wrapping it into the work currently contracted at Secret Lake Park and possibly slowing the process down for reconstruction of the courts. It was agreed that staff should contact the contractor preparing the Parks Master Plan to research the feasibility of including a pickleball component, and that reconstruction of the tennis courts at Secret Lake Park should continue as currently planned. MOTION: Vice Mayor Aramendia moved to approve Resolution 16-2906 and related Budget Amendment #16-062, as presented. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Solomon. Motion carried unanimously by voice vote 5-0. 8. DISCUSSI®let ITEMS A. Future Agenda Items No items were presented for consideration on this agenda. B.
