Skate park site options face cost and neighborhood concerns
At a Baytown work session Johnson outlined options for a skate park including Unidad Park, Jenkins Park and Pelly Park. Unidad Park offers distance from homes but high costs around 137 800 dollars for a new slab plus 125 000 to 150 000 dollars for equipment. Jenkins Park could reuse tennis courts for about 21 683 dollars though surrounding land may be used for future housing. City budgets lack funds while Harris County and the Municipal Development District may help. A decision awaits county input and a council work session precedes the regular meeting airing on Time Warner Channel 16.
