Subject:May 7th meeting Item 4a
I am writing in support of the city building pickleball courts in Richetti Park. Here are reasons I believe the city
should support this.
Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in the U.S. and has a strong, inclusive community in SLO.
Existing court space is limited and overcrowded; demand far exceeds availability.
Including the pickleball courts in Phase 1 supports active living, social connection, and
intergenerational recreation.
The courts will serve a wide range of players — from youth to seniors — and help meet the City's
recreation goals.
Thank you for your consideration,
Debra Jackson
