The city of Pismo Beach started work this week on the Ventana Sports Courts, near the city's existing Chumash Park.

Work got underway this week on a new tennis and pickleball facility on the Central Coast.

The Ventana Sports Court in Pismo Beach will include two pickleball courts, a tennis court, and a new parking area.

The facility will be off Ventana Drive, across from the city’s Chumash Park. A new pedestrian crosswalk will be added between the two parks.

The project is costing $2.3 million. The goal is to complete the new facility and have it ready for use this fall.
