Summary

Staff said proposed park hours are 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and will go before the Planning & Zoning commission and city council for an ordinance amendment; the board asked staff to explore permanent signage materials and provide cost estimates.

Board members discussed hours of operation for a local park and options for how the hours and related ordinance language would be displayed on park signage.

Staff told the board the proposed park hours are 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and that the proposal will proceed to the Planning & Zoning commission and then to city council as an ordinance amendment. Board members expressed a preference for a more permanent sign rather than a removable banner; staff said they would take the request to Public Services to obtain cost estimates and return with recommendations.

The transcript records the board asking that any on-sign language about after-hours use be permanent and not placed on a low-quality banner that could be damaged. Staff agreed to provide cost estimates and, if needed, bring a request back to the board for a contribution toward permanent signage.
