Police to Give Passes to Skateboard Park
Ventura police officers will hand out free passes to a local skateboard park in an effort to decrease trespassing and vandalism related to skateboarding in unauthorized or private areas.
Police say they recognize skateboarding is a popular sport among the city’s teenagers, but add that it often causes extensive damage to private and public facilities.
Beginning Tuesday, patrol officers who come across skateboarders will hand out passes to Skate Street Skateboard Park, 1954 Goodyear Drive in Ventura, in order to promote skateboarding in authorized areas.
