This document is a report detailing the Helensburgh Skatepark proposal as part of the Helensburgh Waterfront Development. It outlines the planning conditions for the temporary skatepark facilities at the new Helensburgh Leisure Centre, which are to be reinstated following its completion. The report describes the aspirations of the Helensburgh Skatepark Group to construct a larger permanent concrete skatepark to serve local users and attract visitors. It highlights the council's commitment of £80,000 to support this initiative. The document also discusses the challenges of finding a suitable long-term location for the skatepark, noting that the waterfront site is not viable due to its commercial development plans. Potential alternative sites are being considered, and the report emphasizes the importance of community engagement and support for the skatepark project. Recommendations for the Area Committee include noting the reinstatement timeline and agreeing on the need for further site assessments.
