Junction City Commissioners will receive a presentation and request Tuesday night to move forward on construction of double sand volleyball courts at the 5th Street Park.
Kendall Schoenrock with Quality Play for All noted with Parks and Recreation Director Nick Younger they will take the proposal for the two courts that would be located north of the zip line on the northwest side of the park. "And we're also requesting that they connect north - south the zip line to the north sidewalk that runs against 5th Street.
The sand volleyball courts are part of the strategic plan to improve the park, and funds were initially raised for them. Schoenrock noted that their hope is to gain approval from the commission and that they find an "easy way to split the cost for the installation of those new sand volleyball courts."
Schoenrock added that then it's just a combination of the outside equipment, and typically they engage Junction City public works to do some of the ground maintenance and upgrades to the actual facility. "Then it's just a question of resources on the City side."
