BACKGROUND
In 1996, City Council directed Parks, Recreation, and Community Services staff to develop a
skatepark. During a meeting in June 1997, City Council authorized the acquisition of the
Merle Norman property (Santa Clarita Sports Complex). Escrow on the property closed in
October 1997, and plans for the skatepark began.
Recreation staff and the architectural firm of Lawrence R. Moss & Associates held public
meetings on October 14, 1997 and November 25, 1997 and developed preliminary designs based
on the public's input. The final design contains all the elements of the ideas received into one
plan that best utilizes the site and fits the needs of inline skaters and skateboarders.
On December 4, 1997, the Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed the preliminary plans
and recommended that they be presented to City Council for approval. On January 20, 1998,
the preliminary plans were presented to and approved by the Planning Commission.
On April 28, 1998, Council approved the plans and specifications for advertisement. Bids were
