SUMMARY:
In October of 2016, City Council was presented with a presentation from Jon Shell, of Upward Intuition outlining a project to construct a skate park (Blake Doyle Skate Park) to be located at the Hollice T. Williams Park, adjacent to the Community Garden at Hayne and Jackson Streets.
Mr. Shell stated that Upward Intuition would conduct fund raising for the project and will be responsible for project construction. After construction, City Parks and Recreation will assume the maintenance of the Skate Park with an estimated cost of $40,000 - $50,000 annually. At that time the City Council unanimously voted to support the efforts of Upward Intuition to construct the Blake Doyle Skate Park.
