Kanten Russell of Stantec/Action Sport Design will host a second design workshop for a new skate park in Hart Park at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 28 at City Hall, 7725 W. North Ave.
Russell will discuss design ideas based on feedback from the first workshop Aug. 7. Conceptual plans include a bowl, half pipe, hand rail and grind ledges in a circular form around a green drainage area.
The grass-roots group pushing for the park, Tosa Skateboarders United, has a budget of more than $250,000, including money from the city and local fundraising efforts. They hope it will open next summer near 70th and Chestnut streets.
