The city is considering making the temporary courts at Hall Memorial Park a permanent fixture.
Community members play pickleball at Hall Memorial Park on Monday, March 25, 2024, in Milpitas, Calif. City officials are deciding whether or not to permanently install pickleball courts at the park.
“There really aren’t many sports a person my age can participate in to stay active,” said Steven Balsbaugh, a 79-year-old avid pickleball player who wants the courts to stay. “You get to establish new relationships with people and stay active. They’re qualities that any city should love to encourage in residents.”
“I wear ear plugs or have shows running in the background to drown out the noise,” she said. “It’s pretty irksome.” “The community process is important, and our City Council places importance on and considers the viewpoints of its residents as they provide direction to city staff and make policy decisions,” Lorentzen said in a statement. “Much of the council direction was in response to the park residents’ concerns about noise and parking.
