A lengthy discussion was held on Park/Beach user policies. It was
strongly stressed that rules and signing need to be on a positive approach
and of help to the user. It is felt that the need arises for formal rules,
adopted as City Ordinances to allow Police Dept. to enforce rules/laws.
The rough draft of rules are attached.
Chairman Williamson is to arrange a presentation for the City Council
