ordinance (if any) involving building maintenance and upkeep. Jeremy explained current
ordinances that apply.
• Lawn upkeep: Town Marshal / Building Commissioner request to review ordinance (if any)
involving lawn upkeep. Current ordinance was reviewed at the Sept 4, Town Council Meeting.
• Crosswalks: GCR Recommendation involving street crosswalks. There are two areas involving
the planetary trail on Hillcrest and Diana.
• Refuge Container Update: Jim discussed current requirements and need to enforce when
practicable.
• Beach Parking (Sticker) requirements in adjoining communities: The committee agreed on the
need to see what other communities are doing. There is a concern that Ogden Dunes will be
considered a location where it is cheaper to enter than the National Park and as an option when
the park runs out of parking.
Additional GCR Recommendations to the TC: Discussions on other areas the committee should
focus upon which led to a list of assignments for the next meeting.
Next meeting: Sept 26th 7p at Town Hall.
Respectfully submitted by: Dr. Kenneth Thompson, secretary,
