we actually pulled it off and the city finally gave us the green light for the skate plaza at the park. im seriously so stoked that we get a safe spot for the kids to ride after all this time. thanks for sticking with me while we pushed for this.

Why Moon Valley?
It has become a SAFETY issue. Our children need a safe and sanctioned area to ride their skateboards and scooters.
Where in Moon Valley?
The north side of the Moon Valley Park is at least 164,711 square feet and has a soccer field (which requires an average of 80,000 square feet), as well as some recreational space. A skate park/plaza designed to meet all skill levels will only take 18,000-25,000 square feet so it appears there is more than adequate space to build a skate plaza that will not prohibit current usage.
Why a Skate Plaza?
Phoenix currently has 17 Skate Parks and only 3 Skate Plazas. Skate Plazas (circled in orange on map, plus proposed area w/orange arrow) include scooter riders. Skate Parks prohibit scooters (https://www.phoenix.gov/parks/parks/skate-parks). A Plaza will serve a larger group of children in our area. The closest Skate Plaza to Moon Valley or North Phoenix residents is approximately 19 miles.

This is exactly what MV needs. Although we need to address any opposition to this. I know the bordering neighborhood to the left of the park near Mountain sky could be opposed as they already do not want people parking on their streets. I grew up in this neighborhood and I really wish we had something like this when I was growing up.
I’ve got yelled at by dozens of people just for riding in a straight line so this would be perfect
Let local skaters help build and design, my brothers Casey and dylan Fowler have lived in moon valley they’re entire lives and metro young kids in the skate community. They would be great people to get involved.
I am a skateboarder and there is not a skate park Norske plaza within 15 to 30 minutes of Moon Valley so this would be a god send
I am a 20 year resident on Tierra Buena Lane. I DO NOT want a skateboard facility on the north side of the park. I am not willing to deal with the parking issue, noise & sight. The southeast area is flat, near parking & would be far less intrusive to residents. I am prepared to fight this issue. Karen Kukey
