Pleasant Grove City Council Work Session 08/18/2026

The Pleasant Grove City Council held a work session on August 18, 2026, focusing primarily on community programs and a significant capital improvement project involving local sports courts. The council heard presentations about the SHARE adaptive recreation program for adults with special needs, highlighting its community impact and ongoing support needs. The main procurement discussion centered on the replacement and potential conversion of two tennis courts and six pickleball courts at Discovery Park. The general contractor, facing warranty issues and a subcontractor going out of business, provided a cost estimate of approximately $280,000 to $300,000 for replacing the courts, with an option to convert the tennis courts into additional pickleball courts. The council discussed funding options, including the use of CARE tax funds, and considered the impact on community use and noise concerns from nearby residents. The timeline for completion was projected for Memorial Day 2027, with courts closed for about eight months during construction. The council agreed to continue discussions in a future meeting, with a motion to adjourn passed at the session's end.
