Alta Vista Park Tennis and Pickleball Courts
Summary
The city plans eight courts with a ~$1.195M budget, no lighting guaranteed, construction hoped for fall 2027. The commission asked hard questions about parking conflicts with the performing arts center, Alta Vista reservation system problems, and cost trade-offs — and formally urged council to consider seven courts plus a community garden instead.

Impact analysis
About $1.195 million is budgeted, though full build-out with lighting may run higher; Alta Vista's single court has already brought in $67,000 in revenue.
Pickleball players get dedicated courts and possible tournament play by fall 2027 — and gardeners could get long-awaited North Redondo garden space.
Performing arts center patrons could face tighter weekend parking if evening play and events overlap.
