Clearwater Creek Preserve Park Hours <br />Periodically, Staff receives calls or emails about suspicious behavior in Clearwater Creek Preserve. Things <br />reported include teenagers possibly drinking, bonfires, and gatherings of vehicles. The park does not have <br />lighting and features a wooded and secluded walking trail. An option to possibly deter the suspicious <br />behavior would be to close the park at sunset. Clearwater Creek Preserve is currently open from 6:00 am to <br />11:00 pm. The Public Conduct in Parks Ordinance allows the Parks Commission to set and post hours at the <br />park. Hanifl Fields Athletic Park, the skate park at Lions Park, and the Goodview Avenue property each close <br />at sunset. Staff recommends the Parks Commission consider reducing the hours of Clearwater Creek <br />Preserve to close at sunset. <br />THE PUBLIC CONDUCT IN PARKS ORDINANCE IS ATTACHED. <br />THE PARKS PLAN CAN BE FOUND AT: https://www.ci.hugo.mn.us/2040compplan <br />Page 3 of 3 <br />Parks Commission Agenda <br />September 16, 2020 <br />
