CITY OF LODI
COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
etre
AGENDA TITLE: Consider redraft of ordinance pertaining to the
restriction of bicycling and organized track
meets/events in the Nature Area at Lodi Lake Park
MEETING DATE: April 17, 1991
PREPARED BY: Bob McNatt, City Attorney
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Council consideration of introduction of attached
draft ordinance.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: As directed by the City Council at its April 3,
1991 meeting, attached is a draft of an ordinance
addressing bicycles and athletic events in the
Nature Area of Lodi Lake Park.
The new statute would prohibit the riding of bicycles in the Nature Area
except upon the main trails, as designated by posted signs. In addition,
it would prohibit all organized athletic events except cross country
races, and would limit those cross country events to the ones sponsored in
the past by such organizations as Lodi High School, Tokav Nigh School,
Field and Fair Day, etc. I believe this reflects the Couticil's desire
that those events previously held in the Nature Area be "grandfathered"
and that new events be prohibited.
FUNDING: None required.
