This petition is to show support for the immediate construction of a new skate park at Easton's Beach in Newport, R.I. The existing park suffers from major design flaws, has become unsafe due to disrepair and is in need of a complete reconstruction. There is a huge demand for public areas for skateboarding, and this space is not being utilized due to these issues. The City of Newport is making steps towards building a park designed by skaters, that will see far more use than the existing park ever has. This project needs the support of local residents to get underway in the near future. Please add your name to this petition so that we can have a fun, safe place for our community to enjoy for years to come.

skaters deserve a better place to ride than the broken concrete at eastons.
The current spot is honestly dangerous now. We really need a real park that isnt falling apart.
NEWPORT NEEDS A DECENT PARK. THE OLD ONE IS TRASH
Fix the park. It is unsafe and a total waste of space right now.
My kids have been waiting for this for a long time. Please just fix it already.

I support rebuilding this park and the construction of a much larger park in a different location in the city.
