RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council (1) consider a recommendation from the Parks,
Recreation, and Community Services Commission, and (2) (if desired) adopt a
resolution revising the established Rules and Regulations regarding the use of
Skateboard Parks within the City and rescinding Resolution No. 2007-R049.
BACKGROUND:
On August 13, 2007, the City Council (1) introduced an Ordinance amending Culver
City Municipal Code Section 9.10.300 (B) to authorize the City Council to establish,
by Resolution, Skateboard Park Rules and Regulations; and (2) adopted a
Resolution establishing Rules and Regulations regarding the Use of Skateboard
Parks within the City. These Rules and Regulations have now been in place for
approximately seven (7) years without updates or modifications. The Parks,
Recreation, and Community Services Commission (PRCS Commission) is
recommending some revisions to the Rules and Regulations based on input from
staff regarding the current use of the Skateboard Park and the behavior patterns of
regular users.
