Centennial lifted its half-year ban on the construction of outdoor pickleball courts Tuesday after the City Council passed new rules and regulations for the popular sport.
The vote to end the March moratorium on new court construction was 9-0 during the four-hour meeting. But several council members noted that this is not the end of the discussion about the potential impacts of pickleball play.
Centennial’s new ordinance forbids any permanent outdoor pickleball courts within 250 feet of a home’s property line. Between 250 feet and 600 feet from a home, the city will require a permit before a court can be built, and the sound of play from that court cannot exceed 47 decibels as measured at the nearest property.
“We need to pass this because we have no other choice,” Sheehan said. “We have a moratorium that is expiring and we have nothing on the books that do anything to stop the noise that’s going to impact our citizens.” in the weeks after it was passed, saying Centennial was draping a wet blanket over a sport that promotes fitness among an increasingly overweight population.
