Council approves partial road closure for Hewitt Memorial Triathlon; hears golf board update
Summary
The council approved a partial closure of the park entrance on July 4 for the Hewitt Memorial Triathlon and heard a golf board update about scheduling a meeting with the White River Trail Board to discuss a proposed golf cart crossing.
Councilors voted May 27 to allow a partial road closure entering the park beginning at 2 p.m. on July 4 so the Hewitt Memorial Triathlon can proceed safely; the event organizer, Brian Frahm, told the council the event was expected to end by 3:30 p.m. Christopher Dean moved to approve the request and Scott DeBock seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
In other park and recreation business, Council Member Scott DeBock reported that the White River Trail Board offered June 2 as a meeting date to discuss a proposed golf cart crossing; the golf board is coordinating with that board and awaiting confirmation. During public comment, Elmer Wilson raised concerns about the golf budget and alcohol pricing at the golf facility.
The council’s actions were procedural approvals rather than policy changes; the agenda included instructions to notify the public of the partial closure and to continue coordination with the White River Trail Board.
