Here is a letter from Kevin Liburdy, Sandy's City Planner and main cityman for the Sandy Skatepark, giving the latest update on the park's progress.

Hey there sam - Thanks for writing and we appreciate yoursupport!
    Don't really have too many answersfor ya in regard to expenses because the line kind of blurs
between cash in hand, donations of labor and materials,etc. We estimate, very roughly,
that materials (not labor) for the park (about 10,000square feet) will cost about
$20,000 including concrete, rebar, fencing, coping,signage, forms, etc. This
figure reflects price breaks wherever we could get 'emincluding a reduced rate for
concrete (about $60/yard3).  The city kicked down$4,000, a couple of land
developers kicked in a few more, and we've generatedsome other money through fundraisers.
most of the labor including excavation and concrete work,hauling, etc, is
essentially being bro'd down, although the contractorsare itemizing their expenses in case
we can generate the funds to pay 'em...so this is a prettybig question mark in
terms of expense.
    We've been working on the projectfor the last 3 years, and I know there were
efforts prior.  Sometimes it's tough but we justgotta keep our heads up, be
patient and keep workin at it. and we still need toraise a grip of cash to pay for
materials, not to mention reimbursing for the excavationand concrete labor, but
we've had great support from a few local folks and aremaking progress.  Ideally
we'll have at least a portion of the park completeby the time school is out.
     The project is on property ownedby the school district, so all activities must be
within school rules (no smoking, etc.) and hours of operationwill be limited
during the school year (no skating for anyone duringschool hours).
    The city's website has the photo showingsome excavation work.  We've taken it a
step further since that photo and now have obstaclesshaped and gravel compacted over
the soil.  We need to finish shaping a few of theobstacles to make sure trannies are
more skateable. the biggest construction challengeat this point is installing
coping.  If we follow the design that TonyGembeck,  http://www.skateparkguide.com/,
recommends in "the complete step-by-step guide to concreteskatepark construction,"
it'll be quite a while before we're ready to pour concrete...prettytech.  But
after the coping is set we'll finish shaping a coupleof small bowls.
    Obviously the skatepark webpage(http://www.ci.sandy.or.us/index.html)hasn't
been updated in a long time.  This is my fault andI'll try to get it updated soon.
    Although I work for the city, I'mkind of volunteering on the skatepark project
and helping the Sandy Skate Association...thegroupof skaters and parents spearheading
the effort. We're printing a new t-shirt designand should have 'em available soon.  ...
     If you know any folks who knowhow to trowel and live in our area,
let 'em know that we could really use their help.
    Also, we're gonna need the bigskaters to come out and teach the younger
generation all about park etiquette, respectingneighbors, maintenance, and basically
everything it takes to keep the park open and fun.Thanks Sam!
 
 

Thank you Nicole and Kelly for your support and help.
