Document Description
Permit Adjustment to Conditional Use Permit No. PL13-0163 for the for the conversion of the two existing tennis courts at Deerhill Park into six pickleball courts, located in the northwest corner of the park. The existing court surface was painted and striped with the pickleball dimensions and the perimeter of the pickleball courts are surrounded by an existing 12-foot-high chain link fence. Noise attenuation in the form of 12-foot high soundblock panels are affixed to the perimeter of the pickleball courts to reduce noise from pickleball use. The courts are open daily from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
The entrance to the pickleball courts has been relocated from the north to the south side of the courts. This area was reconfigured with new entry stairs, landscape planters and trash receptacles. The north entrance has been reconfigured with a new concrete landing. The existing 20-foot-high light pole at the tennis courts remain but is retrofitted with new LED fixtures. Four new light fixtures (20 feet in height) were installed on the existing pole in the middle of the court. All lighting is on timers and directed and shielded downward. A warning light and buzzer to control pickleball play is located inside the court.
Signage affixed to the pickleball court entrance advises the public of rules for play, court hours, and the contact person for general information and emergencies. Seventy-eight existing parking spaces are provided in two existing lots within the park.
Deerhill Park is developed with an existing 1,160 square foot building that includes public restroom facilities and a food concession area. Other existing amenities include a picnic area, two open pavilion areas, two playground areas, two basketball courts, one baseball diamond and one soccer field. Existing pole-mounted lights are located throughout the park. The baseball and soccer fields, however, are not illuminated.
Deerhill Park is open to the public from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm, seven days a week. One employee performs daily maintenance of the public restrooms.
Private social events, such as birthday parties, sporting events, and family gatherings are authorized during regular park hours. These existing events are all within the normal scope of activities at a public park. The use of amplified music is prohibited in the park. All league and organized group use of park amenities require reservations which RSPRD staff schedule at different days and times to minimize potential conflicts, such as parking demand.
Water is supplied to the park by the Oak Park Water Service Company and wastewater for the public restrooms is conveyed to the Triunfo Sanitation District for treatment and disposal. Seventy-eight parking spaces are provided in two existing lots within the park. Access to the park is provided by a 25-foot-wide driveway connected to Doubletree Road. Secondary access is provided by a 25-foot-wide driveway connected to Deerbrook Road.
