,fir <br /> Item #9.C.5. <br /> t�ity of .1 <br /> lk Ri• <br /> ver MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: Park and Recreations Commission <br /> FROM: Michele McPherson;Director of Planning <br /> DATE: October 11, 2000 <br /> SUBJECT: Park Boundary Sign Direction <br /> At a previous Commission meeting, the issue of which direction to face park <br /> boundary signs was raised. Obviously, depending on who you intend your <br /> audience to be would determine which direction the signs would face. As I have <br /> observed the Commission, it appears that it is the desire of the Commission to <br /> inform residential property owners that they are living adjacent to City park land <br /> and to expect that changes will occur and amenities will be constructed. <br /> However, there is much to be said for protecting private property from park users, <br /> • although most park users can be expected to respect private property. <br /> Obviously, installing two signs, one indicating private property or some other <br /> language for users in the park and then the standard park boundary sign on each <br /> sign post may increase costs of signage. The amended subdivision ordinance <br /> requires the developer to install park boundary and trail markers as required by <br /> the City. <br /> Recommendation <br /> Please provide staff direction regarding this issue. <br /> • <br /> S:\P LAN N I N G\M I CH MC\PARKN REC\PARKS I G N.D OC <br /> 13065 Orono Parkway • P.O.
