Since then, we have had some organizational processes in the department and the city. Further, <br />stewards have been challenged to close sodded trails in the spring without a policy and ordinance to ensure <br />compliance. <br />The City Code of Ordinances was amended at the April I, 2024, Regular City Council Meeting to establish a <br />means to close trails. The Steward policy now provides the process for stewards to follow when trails need <br />to be closed. <br />Financial Impact <br />N/A <br />Mission/Policy/Goal <br />Explain how this meets the city's mission, current policies and/or council goals <br />Attachments <br />1. 2024 Policy Park Steward Guidelines CLEAN <br />2. 2024 Policy Park Steward Guidelines <br />The Elk River Vision <br />A avelcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional service, and community p p W E R E U A Y <br />engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity <br />201 <br />
