A conceptual drawing for a Redondo Beach pickleball complex has been released by city landscape architects Hirsch & Associates, in preparation for a design-build request for proposals. The city is expected to go out to bid this month or in December.
“Things are moving forward on the project, expeditiously,” said Scott Behrendt, city councilman.
The project is to build an eight-court, “tournament compatible” complex, pickleball-exclusive, at Aviation Park in the grass field next to the gymnasium.
When might it be ready?
“We’re hearing and hoping 2027,” Behrendt said.
The budget is estimated at $1.3 million, though the number could increase, depending on the project’s final design. Funds have been set aside by the city council over the past two years. Maintenance is to be paid for by user fees.
Behrendt and Councilman Zein Obagi, Jr., named the complex as their “priority capital improvements project” for this year. ER
