Chapter 5: Management

Restrooms
Businesses near the skatepark will appreciate on-site restrooms for park visitors. Restrooms, if they are permanent facilities, should adhere to the same design and construction principles as any urban city-park restroom, with a focus on easy cleaning and prevention of vandalism. Portable restrooms can provide adequate sanitation if the park gets fewer than a hundred visitors a day.

Restrooms often attract illicit activity regardless of the location or access. Like any public comfort station, it should be planned for with the most contemporary principles of crime prevention in mind. While skateparks do not attract a greater degree of criminals than any other sports or recreational facility, they are popular and restrooms will be well used.
