SUMMARY:
BACKGROUND
On October 28, 2020, the City enacted the current general rules and policies for parks, which limit hours of use from sunrise to 11:00. P.M. Although this is enacted as a policy, the San Luis Police Department is continuing to encounter issues with persons occupying City parks beyond these hours. Codifying these hours in the City Code will provide the Police Department with a clear means to enforce them. Further, City Code Section 7.05.010 was enacted by Ordinance No. 22 on February 10, 1982, and refers explicitly to Friendship Park. Since Friendship Park no longer exists, this Ordinance will remove this reference to update the City Code appropriately.
THE PURPOSE OF THIS ORDINANCE
This ordinance adds the hours of operation for City Parks to San Luis City Code chapter 7.05.010 and removes references to the now-defunct Friendship Park.
