Kirkwood Park Board Park Board Meeting

The Board discussed the report from the Alternative Transportation Device Committee, focusing on the regulation of various transportation devices such as e-bikes, scooters, and skateboards within the park. Key discussion topics included safety protocols for different park areas like roadways, parking lots, and trails; the need for clear signage to educate the public; the importance of yielding to pedestrians, especially for vulnerable groups like seniors; and the role of park rangers in enforcing these rules. The Board also considered the impact of these devices on park accessibility and visitor safety.
