MEMORANDUM
February 25, 1999
TO: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
FROM: Gil D. Spence, Leisure Services Managet'
SUBJECT: Code of Ordinances Pertaining to Parks and Recreation
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to request City Council approval of revisions to
the Code of Ordinances pertaining to parks and recreation.
.
DISCUSSION
Attached is a summary of the proposed changes prepared by Corporation Counsel
Barry Lindahl for action by the City Council. There are really only two changes being
proposed:
.
Section 34-54. Pets have not been allowed in parks at all. This proposed change
allows for pets in parks that are leashed and attended. An increased number of
people are walking with their pets, and as trails are added to the system, we
expect the trend to continue. The no pets ordinance has been difficult to enforce
because of the reaction from the park user to being told the pet in their car can not
get out of the car in the park.
Section 34-67(e) was amended to include trails and renumbered to 32-251 (moved
to the traffic code). It is moved to the traffic code because the process of filing
charges under that section of the code is much simpler and quicker for individuals
under the age of 18.
.
.
Presently, individuals over 18 years old are issued a traffic citation but those under
18 are issued a juvenile complaint and affidavit plus the parents must be notified.
The park rangers fill out the affidavit then call the information in to the Law
Center. A secretary at the Law Center types the affidavit and the ranger is
notified to stop at the Law Center to sign. Contacting the parents can also be
time consuming because often times they are difficult to locate. Under the park
.
code of ordinances, page two
section, this offense is not considered a traffic charge so it would not show on the
individual's driving record. We believe having the offense show on the driving
record would be a deterrent.
When moved to the traffic code a traffic citation can be issued for all age levels.
This is a simple traffic ticket and would show on the individual's driving record.
All the other revisions are proposed to add new parks and areas to the code. Those
areas include: Elmwood Green Park, Granger Creek Nature Trail, Heritage Trail, Marna
Ridge Children's Forest, Medical Associates Greenbelt, Pinard Park, Rocco Buda Jr.
Park, Southern Park, Sunnyslopes Park, Usha Park and Valentine Park.
ACTION STEP
The action requested is that the City Council approve these revisions to the Code of
Ordinances.

MEMORANDUM
February 18, 1999
TO: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
FROM: Gil D. Spence, Leisure Services Manager
SUBJECT: Code of Ordinances Pertaining to Parks and Recreation
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to request City Council approval of revisions to
the Code of Ordinances pertaining to parks and recreation.
.
DISCUSSION
Attached is a summary of the proposed changes prepared by Corporation Counsel
Barry Lindahl for action by the City Council. There are really only two changes being
proposed:
· Section 34-54. Pets have not been allowed in parks at all. This proposed change
allows for pets in parks that are leashed and attended. An increased number of
people are walking with their pets, and as trails are added to the system, we
expect the trend to continue. The no pets ordinance has been difficult to enforce
because of the reaction from the park user to being told the pet in their car can not
get out of the car in the park.
· Section 34-67(e) was amended to include trails and renumbered to 32-251 (moved
to the traffic code). It is moved to the traffic code because the process of filing
charges under the section of the code is much simpler and quicker.
All the other revisions are proposed to add new parks and areas to the code. Those
areas include: Elmwood Green Park, Granger Creek Nature Trail, Heritage Trail, Marna
Ridge Children's Forest, Medical Associates Greenbelt, Pinard Park, Rocco Buda Jr.
Park, Southern Park, Sunnyslopes Park, Usha Park and Valentine Park.
ACTION STEP
. The action requested is that the City Council approve these revisions to the Code of
Ordinances.
