A Heads-up For The October 17, 2007, Park Board Meeting
When the Park Board's revision of its Citizen Participation Ordinance was recently proposed, it was criticized by citizens for limiting and discouraging citizen participation. But Chairman Bob Fine and the Planning Committee did approve it at the October 3 Park Board meeting. It is on the agenda for full Board approval at the October 17 Park Board meeting.
Because of the reduction of citizen participation in the Park Board's revised Citizen Participation Ordinance, four citizens from three neighborhoods spent considerable time in redoing the the ordinance so it would be respectful of citizen participation. This carefully crafted citizen friendly version was e-mailed to all of the Commissioners on October 12, with snail-mail letters delivered later in the day, with the hope that the Commissioners will seriously consider it at the October 17 meeting. A copy has been attached for your viewing pleasure.
