Ojai Skate Park Plans Ramp Up

OVN covers the latest on the Ojai Skate Park...

If the Ojai’s skate park is being built for local skateboarders, then the skaters themselves should be involved in critiquing the park’s design, planning commissioners agreed at Wednesday night’s planning meeting.

“It’s been a really long time since I’ve been on a skateboard,” said Commissioner Troy Becker. “I would look to working with the kids in the community and whatever elements that they think are necessary.”

The skateboarder who spoke to the two commissions was Jacob Sessing, a member of the Ojai High School Skate Team. Jacob requested that a step-up be added to the park layout.

In the previous conceptual design presented by Skate Design there were three step-ups and they had all been removed in error. Jeff spoke to the skaters after the meeting and assured them that one will be included in the final design. He asked that the skaters review the design and email their suggestion of where to place the element. He also asked for their choice on a round or flat rail on the two stair elements.

Site Design has been terrific in their inclusion of the skaters, of all ages, in this process.

Thank you to the two commissions for listening so intently to the presentation and approving this conceptual design.
