City of Tukwila <br />Allan Ekberg, Mayor <br />INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Community Services & Safety Committee <br />FROM: Tracy Gallaway, Parks & Recreation Director <br />BY: Kris Kelly, Parks & Recreation Manager <br />CC: Mayor Ekberg <br />DATE: April 19, 2022 <br />SUBJECT: Park User Plan Update <br />ISSUE <br />Providing an update on the Park User Plan. <br />BACKGROUND <br />With the busy season ahead of us, Parks & Recreation has made some immediate <br />modifications to help mitigate concerns of and complaints from residents that live <br />adjacent to city parks. <br />COMPLAINTS/CONCERNS MITIGATION SUMMARY <br />Briefly we would like to share with the committee improvements Parks & Recreation has <br />made to being a good neighbor and a community partner with residents that live <br />adjacent to city parks. These include: <br />Rental customers: <br />1. We have added this additional language to rental agreements to mitigate <br />undesired behaviors: <br />• In order to receive your full refund of your damage deposit the following must <br />be met: <br />o Clean up all trash in and around picnic shelter. <br />o Take trash to dumpster or take with you. This reduces potential for <br />litter caused by weather and wildlife. <br />o Keep all grills on concrete and next to designated barbecue pit area. <br />o Inflatables (ex. bouncy houses) are allowed with prior consent and <br />rental of a field. <br />o Be mindful of your neighbors in and around the park <br />• NO alcohol allowed in Tukwila Parks <br />• NO loud music or PA systems (if you can't hear your <br />conversation next to you, then it is too loud) <br />• If you did not reserve the field area, do not occupy it as part of <br />your rental <br />• If any city official is notified or called to site, your deposit <br />will be affected, if found you are the reason for the <br />visitation. <br />7 <br />
