Burbank board approves municipal code amendments to set park hours and align department name
Summary
On Feb. 13 the Burbank Parks and Recreation Board voted to approve proposed municipal-code amendments to standardize park closure hours at 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. and to align the municipal code with the department's current name, Parks and Recreation Department; the board's approval moves the changes toward formal codification with the City Council.
The Burbank Parks and Recreation Board voted Feb. 13 to approve proposed changes to the municipal code that set standard park closure hours and to request the code be updated to match the department's current name.
The vote followed a staff presentation that traced the department's naming history and explained problems enforcing a code that tied park hours to daily sunrise and sunset times. Paul Ohan, senior administrative analyst in the Parks and Recreation Department, told the board the proposal would replace variable sunset/sunrise closing rules with a uniform 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. closure for all parks.
