Regarding the following statement: "This policy will support the development of new facilities in appropriate locations where there is a local need for the facilities, and they are in close proximity to the people they will serve."
Even though there are a lot of skateparks in Cambridge, we're still lacking proper facilities that are appropriate for use year-round. To be suitable in winter, our local skateparks need lights (which could be extinguished late at night to discourage anti-social use), and rain cover. Simple adjustments to provide more space could also be implemented, such as smooth access paths (e.g. Jesus Green).
