An indoor amusement park featuring trampolines may open soon in Murrieta.
A public hearing is scheduled Thursday for AeroSports, which hopes to bring the family-oriented facility to a 34,000-square-foot space at 39729 Avenida Acacias, Suites A and B.
AeroSports owner John DeSouza will seek a minor conditional use permit during the public and city administrative hearing set to begin at 4 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 20 at Murrieta City Hall, 1 Town Square.
Murrieta city planners are recommending approval of the facility, which already has signage displayed at the space in the Murrieta Crossings Center, also known as Furniture Row to locals.
The center is no longer home to just furniture stores; in the past year Aces Comedy Club has opened up as has Brew-Ligion.
If approved, AeroSports would consist of open trampoline jump areas, trampoline arenas, foam pits, an arcade area, a snack bar and party rooms, according to a report prepared for the hearing.
The facility would be available to the public for rental on an hourly basis.
The trampoline arenas are designed for sports and league play for dodgeball, volleyball, basketball and similar activities.
AeroSports also proposes offering cardiovascular fitness classes available for a membership fee.
Its proposed hours of operations are 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and 10 to midnight Friday and Saturday.
"The facility's use, related to hours and operation characteristics, is a low-intensity use," wrote Assistant City Planner Aaron Rintamaki. "The trampoline park is compatible with the surrounding uses and will not alter the character of the existing commercial center."
The proposed business meets the city's zoning requirements for the center, according to Rintamaki, and there is ample parking—989 spaces—to accommodate patrons.
Murrieta would be the fourth location for AeroSports, which according to the company's website, has existing sites in Corona, Fresno and Maryland.
