The full story

The Town Council adopted Ordinance 2025-23 on final reading to amend park regulations, clarifying that section 5.11 of the town code applies to all parks owned and operated by the town and adding a clarification regarding archery programming. Town staff said the change makes the town’s rules clear for parks under town ownership and operation rather than tied to a specific township park. The amendment also clarifies how archery activities are addressed in park rules. The council approved the ordinance on second reading by roll call without questions. Why it matters: the amendment standardizes park rules across all town-owned and operated parks and enables the town to specifically authorize recreational archery programming under the clarified rules. Council members voted to adopt the ordinance on final reading.
