Lanark police: call for locked park bathrooms, golf-cart permit revoked, e-citation rollout pending equipment
Summary
Chief Troy Randall asked the council for a secure lock system for park restrooms, announced a golf-cart permit revocation for a repeat offender, said UTV inspection turnout was low and e-citation software rollout is pending equipment with county grant support.
Chief Troy Randall told the council that while a timer system for park bathrooms is functioning, doors themselves are not secured and coordination with staff is required to implement a proper locking mechanism that aligns with park hours. He also reported that a recent UTV inspection event had no attendees but inspections remain available on demand.
On enforcement, council reaffirmed the city’s policy that permitted golf cart operators must be at least 21 years old and voted to revoke the permit of a repeat offender who allowed minors to operate the permitted vehicle; staff will issue formal notice and outline the city council appeal process. Randall provided an update on the e-citation software rollout: equipment is still pending and a county grant covers the first year of software costs as neighboring municipalities join the program.
