Dear Piedmont City Council: 

I am a Piedmont resident who is opposed to permanently converting the Linda Beach courts to a permanent, exclusive pickleball-only facility. I believe this project is [choose one or more from suggestions below]

• Based on inadequate engagement with and input from the Linda Beach neighborhood

• Presents unacceptable safety impacts related to parking and traffic at Beach Elementary School

• Presents unacceptable noise impacts at other spaces in the Linda Beach area — [homes, Beach School,  Schoolmates, the tot lot, the Grassy Field ]— that will affect the ability of my family to enjoy these spaces

• Unfairly subsidizes pickleball over tennis by, for example, requiring fees and reservations for tennis but not for pickleball 

• Has the potential to adversely affect the value of my home

• Displaces the Linda Beach Conceptual Master Plan which was based on extensive engagement and input from the Linda Beach neighborhood and expressly removed pickleball from the final plan

I ask that the City Council continues evaluating the decision for permanent, exclusive pickleball-only facility at the Linda Beach courts and take into account new information presented about the noise nuisance for nearby neighbors. I also ask that City Council asks the Recreation Director to enforce the approved rules for hours of play and noise-reducing equipment, and discuss penalties for rule violations.
