PTAB seeks regular police check‑ins at skate park after repairs, graffiti removal
Summary
After repairs and graffiti removal at the skate park, PTAB members raised concerns about intermittent inappropriate behavior and asked for periodic police or parent presence; Trustee Sean Ryan will ask police to perform regular check‑ins.
The Parks and Trails Advisory Board reported that concrete repairs and graffiti removal have improved conditions at the skate park, but members and a previous commenter (Steve) raised concerns about periodic behavior that could make users uncomfortable. Members suggested that a parent or police presence at times could help.
Sean Ryan (Village Trustee) said he will ask the police department to perform regular check‑ins at the skate park. Richie Hewitt (Village Staff) requested that PTAB members notify him by phone or text when behavior arises that makes park users uncomfortable so staff can respond.
The PTAB minutes record intended outreach to police and follow‑up actions by staff; no formal enforcement plan or schedule is recorded.
