The Town of Penfield continues its efforts to improve the Shadow Pines property and make it a place for all in the community to enjoy. Over the past few years, the Town Board has been developing plans for a recreation area with pickleball courts in the northeast corner of the property.
Based on feedback from the community in the spring of 2023, an updated proposal has been developed. During the Town Board meeting on Wednesday, August 16, the updated proposal was presented. The new plan features 10 pickleball courts, two that are ADA accessible, along with a picnic area, open-air pavilion, inclusive playgrounds, and restrooms.
Within the plan, extra attention has been taken to ensure the project is accessible to all in the community with widened sidewalks, expanded handicap accessibility, and playground areas that accommodate kids of all abilities.
The proposed project area totals approximately 7 acres, roughly 3% of the total property, and focuses on the preservation of the natural landscape by utilizing the area which was formerly a golf fairway.
Residents are also welcome to provide feedback to the Supervisor’s Office by calling (585) 340-8630 or supervisor@penfield.org.
The Town Board will next discuss the proposal during its legislative meeting on Wednesday, September 6, at 6:30 p.m.
