popular with today’s youth. He advised skateboarders have been seen on Orono

Orono would offer a safe location, provide youth with a focus and direction and have a
positive effect on the community. Mr. Rousseau submitted a petition containing

In response to questions on location and construction, Mr. Rousseau’s son replied
there was a baseball diamond in Orono Park that was no longer used and that a
