Help Make Gibson Pickleball Courts More Accessible and Convenient We, the undersigned, respectfully ask the City of Roseville Parks & Recreation Department to consider partnering with the community to allow the installation of live-streaming web cameras at the Gibson Pickleball Courts. Benefits to the Community Help players decide the best time to visit. Reduce unnecessary vehicle trips and traffic. Improve the experience for residents and visitors. Showcase one of Roseville's premier pickleball facilities. Encourage more people to get outside and enjoy the sport. Our Proposal We are requesting permission for a community-funded pilot program that would: Install fixed live-stream cameras overlooking the courts. Show only a wide view of court activity and occupancy—not close-ups or identifying information. Provide free public access to the live stream so anyone can check court availability before visiting. Be installed, maintained, and funded privately at no cost to the City of Roseville. This petition is geared toward the local pickleball community to help gauge whether there is local approval and support for this idea among players who regularly use the courts. Why This Matters One of the biggest challenges for pickleball players is not knowing what the courts look like before making the drive. Many players arrive only to find that: - Every court is full, resulting in long wait times. - No one is there to play. - Court conditions or weather make playing difficult. A simple live camera feed would allow players to check court activity in real time before leaving home, saving time, reducing unnecessary trips, and making the courts more enjoyable for everyone.

This petition is not asking the City to approve the project immediately. We are simply asking the City of Roseville to consider this proposal, meet with community representatives, and explore whether a pilot program could benefit everyone who uses the Gibson Pickleball Courts, while also gauging local approval and support from the pickleball community. If you believe this would improve the pickleball experience in Roseville, please sign this petition and help demonstrate community support. Together, we can make Gibson Pickleball Courts even better for everyone.
