Alta Vista Park Pickleball Courts Approval: The Redondo Beach City Council voted unanimously on August 12, 2025, to move forward with building pickleball courts at Alta Vista Park. The project also received approval for a sequel exemption declaration, allowing construction without a full environmental review. The decision reflects growing interest in pickleball among local residents.
Pickleball Project Gains Priority
Council members prioritized the pickleball courts early in the meeting agenda, signaling the project’s importance to the community. City staff presented a noise study by York Engineering, showing that the expected sound from games would remain below city noise limits and likely be barely noticeable to nearby residents.
Despite the findings, the council agreed to explore sound mitigation options. Three types of sound-blocking materials were discussed, each with different costs and park appearance impacts. The council voted to proceed with the project while keeping these options under review.
Other Council Discussions
Besides the pickleball project, the council addressed public participation on non-agenda topics and reviewed several appointment recommendations. Members also discussed the timing for opening applications for cannabis businesses, debating whether to proceed now or wait for more safety and economic data from the state.
Next Steps and Community Impact
The council plans to revisit the budget for the pickleball project and sound mitigation in the coming weeks. Residents can expect updates on funding, construction schedules, and continued opportunities to share input. The new courts aim to boost community engagement and encourage active lifestyles in Redondo Beach.
