Skate News - Prince Albert

Public Backs Park
Regan Brady - Prince Albert Daily Herald - Aug 10 2005

The Proposed Prime Ministers' Park location for an outdoor skatepark facility met no opposition from the public at a meeting Tuesday night.

About 20 people, many skateboard subcommittee members, attended the meeting at City Hall to show their support of the new location, which is south of the south parking lot of the Art Hauser Centre and west of the softball diamonds.

"I think this is a go - looks like unanimous support to me," said Mel Kelley, a subcommittee member.

The next step is for final approval by city council at its Monday meeting. On Aug. 2, council approved Prime Ministers' Park pending input from the public meeting.

The facility is estimated to cost between $500,000 and $700,000.
