Parks committee says parking-lot lights will be put on a timer; pavilion location near Crooked Park under discussion
Summary
Councilman Morrow reported on Jan. 28 that lights at a nearby parking lot will be placed on a timer after resident complaints; he also said talks are ongoing to site a pavilion near Crooked Park with a decision expected by Feb. 1.
Councilman Morrow told the Parks and Recreation committee on Jan. 28 that he had received resident complaints about bright lights in a parking lot adjacent to a park and that city staff responded by placing those lights on a timer to reduce nighttime disturbance.
"They are pretty bright," Morrow said of the lights, and he thanked Director Berger for swift work: "They will now be on a timer to, you know, not disturb residents around." He also told the committee the city is "in talks" to locate a pavilion near Crooked Park and expects to have a site finalized by Feb. 1.
Morrow opened and closed the Parks and Rec meeting; no formal policy votes or funding decisions related to the pavilion or lighting were recorded in committee. The update was offered as an operational report and a status note on the pavilion siting.
What happens next: staff will implement the lighting timer and continue talks about a pavilion site near Crooked Park, with a follow-up expected by Feb. 1.
