<br />~ <br />Elk~.:J <br />River <br /> <br />Police Department <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br />DATE: <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Bill Maertz <br />Jeffrey A. Beahen, Chief of Police <br />May 8, 2006 <br />Babcock Park <br /> <br />I am in full agreement that if possible, the City of Elk River take over Babcock Park. I am <br />confident that this would give us the ability to address several concerns I have that are <br />directly related to our on-going issues of illicit outside sexual activity. <br /> <br />These would include: <br /> <br />Removal of the permanent restrooms and replacing them with portable toilets. <br /> <br />Trimming or removal of foliage and trees in certain areas (DNR and waterway act <br />permitting) to take away the primary areas used for outdoor sexual activity. <br /> <br />Better maintenance of the park itself-to help remove the debris and trash left behind by <br />those who frequent the park, and often leave a variety of illicit trash items behind. <br /> <br />This is a minimum cared for facility now, and with it being so visible to many who travel <br />through our community, any effort to present a better image to the motoring public is <br />greatly appreciated. <br />
