Document Description
The project includes the construction and operation of new facilities at the site of the Fresno City College softball field, along with the removal of some existing facilities, and the extension of operational hours for softball events. Proposed improvements include new bleacher seating (200-person seating capacity), an announcer’s booth, in-ground dugout enclosures, a batting cage area, two pitching warm-up areas, backstop fencing (minimum 30-foot-tall netting style system), and field lighting (LED lighting mounted on six 60-foot-tall poles). The project would utilize the existing softball field’s outfield fencing, foul poles, and scoreboard. The project also includes construction of a field house (containing a team room, coach’s office, restrooms, snack bar, and storage areas), three ADA parking stalls, and concrete sidewalk areas. The project would operate year-round, with most activity occurring during the January-May collegiate softball season. The project is expected to host up to 20 games plus team practices during the softball season. The project may also be utilized for hosting occasional collegiate softball tournaments. Games and practices would be held on weekdays and weekends and would be scheduled for both daytime and evening hours.
